Mineral Powders

Mineral powder makeup is as natural as you can get. It has no talc, no chemicals, no fillers and no dyes. They are creates from finely crushed, high pigment minerals. They work well after cosmetic treatments and don’t stimulate allergic reactions or clog pores. They protect against UV radiation because of the titanium dioxide and zinc oxide at the base. The zinc oxide, in the mineral powder is anti inflammatory and helps with rosacea and skin blemishes. The absence of talc helps with the skin’s hydration.

Blush Blunders? Not Anymore!

Blush is probably the most misused cosmetic product out there today. Most women either use too little or too much. When using too much, it takes away natural beauty. If not using enough, you could be lacking in the enhancement of your natural beauty. It should only be used on portions of your face that are naturally flushed or have a rosey color to them. After all, the purpose is to enhance the natural flush of your face.

Blush is available in three different types: cake, liquid, and cream. Cake is applied to the face after the application of powder. Onthe other hand, liquid and cream are applied after the foundation, but before the powder.

How To Apply Blush

Blush should be used to bring out certain parts of your face and cheeks, but should never be put on to dark because it can overpower the face. Blush should look soft and natural, rather than like you drew to pink circles on your face.

Before you apply your blush, make sure you tap your brush so the excess make up will fall off the brush. Excess blush can make your face look uneven, so you want to avoid putting too much on. Then apply the blush to the apple of your cheek, which is the area you want to bring attention to. Then use the brush to blend the make up toward your hairline, in an upward diagonal direction.
