FLAWLESS APPLICATION
HOW TO APPLY MINERALS MAKE UP

A lot of women (and men) have discovered the benefits
of using mineral make-up
as opposed to the traditional
liquid foundation or powder. Our mineral make-up does
not contain the chemicals
that cause some people to
break out, or aggravate sensitive skin conditions.
There's a trick to applying
this type of foundation, but it
can look natural if done right.
1. Moisturize your face at least 5 minutes beforehand.
The mineral powder adheres to the natural oil of your
skin and
if your face is too dry, the powder might end
up looking like just that - powder. If you have oily skin,
its
best to use a foundation primer to help with adher-
ence. Trial and error might be needed to find the perfect
balance.
2. Pour a small amount of foundation
powder into the cap
of the jar. This
helps avoid using too much, and you could
always add a layer if needed. Use maybe a little more than a pinch or so.

3. Dip the kabuki brush in the cap, then tap the brush
upwards
on a flat surface, to dust off the extra powder.
This also helps some of the excess powder to settle
within your brush. A Kabuki brush is important
and
essential in covering large areas of your face. An
inferior brush can give you an uneven distribution,
making the make-up look artificial. This is why you
might want to invest in a decent Kabuki.
4. Apply the foundation by swirling the
brush on your skin in a
circular motion. This is
where you decide how the make-up will
look. Its recommended to start out with the T-Zone first, then
lightly on
the cheeks and move off to the side of your face. The
brush isn't supposed to just dust your skin with powder, its
going
to BUFF the powder, to help it adhere to the oil in your skin. The
more you dip into the powder and buff,
the heavier the coverage
will be. This take practice to find the right technique.
5. Once you have the look you want with foundation, apply some
Veil Finishing
powder to set the make -up. Do not buff like the foundation.
Just a light overall dusting is
needed to set the foundation! Without it, the make-up will eventually look
a little tired. With it, the make-
up will hold muchlonger and look less sweaty. You can really tell the difference between
using it and skipping it.
