With my recent love for playing and experimenting with eyeshadows, I have tried Avon Smooth Mineral Eyeshadow.

Superfine powder pigments blend like a dream. Use one or layer, go sheer or smoky. Whisper-soft, air-light. Natural radiance, pure luxury.

Loose eyeshadow. Using loose mineral eyeshadows must entail a very careful application, for once powder falls on unwanted places ( like your undereyes ) , they are very hard to remove. A generous dusting of loose powder under the eyes is most recommended prior to playing with loose eyeshadows. Let the excess powder fall of there. Sweep them away later.

Earthen Glow Minerals, one of my favorite mineral makeup brands ( because their mineral foundations have just awesome coverage, and goes on just as creamy ), is having their annual BOGO sale!

What’s a BOGO sale? it’s a buy one, take one sale! Now, isn’t that just fabulous! I remembered buying last year during Earthen Glow Minerals’ BOGO sale because I thought it was such a great deal. More mineral makeup, for just the price of one!

Mineral Makeup Sale : Earthen Glow Minerals

Nowadays, with every product having the word “natural”, “organic”, “preservative-free” being the entice-factor to every person’s shopping decision, mineral makeup is the choice for the health conscious women ( and men ) out there.

I’ve been obsessed with mineral makeup, and made the switch almost the same time as I started my blog. If you ask me if I still use traditional makeup - I say yes, but it stays less than 24 hours on my face. And I use it sparingly. Mineral makeup will be my ultimate choice for everyday makeup, and even makeup for special occasions. Mineral makeup is the only kind of makeup that my skin feels home to. Alot of women ( and men, for that matter ) are starting to embrace and make the switch to mineral makeup, for mineral makeup does not clog pores and does not aggravate acne. In other words, mineral makeup is makeup that gives you no headache.

Say hello to Avon Smooth Mineral Foundation, Avon’s answer to the needs of women today, with its version of mineral makeup.

Looking at it overall, it’s packed in such a cute way that there’s already a kabuki brush that you can just use to apply your mineral foundation with. Nice, huh? It is actually a steal already for P 499.00, with a mineral foundation , and makeup brush in one!

When it launched in the Philippines just this February, it introduced two shades, a lighter shade called Almond, and a darker one called Buff.

Lumiere’s Think Spring Sale

Looks like there’s a new mineral makeup brand in the block!

Fresh Minerals, comes with a very “fresh” tagline, “beauty never felt this fresh.” I havent tried the line for myself, but what impressed me at first inspection on their website is the packaging.

The foundations are packaged just like Philosophy’s Supernatural Mineral Powder, the concealer tube with brush looks like a Tarte product, other mineral powders are in very convenient pump brushes, and the color scheme, including the lipstick’s packaging, is very much Shiseido. Mineral eye powders look like Bare Escentuals packaging. I must say, the packaging and presentation is very elegant, but, will it fare well on our skin?
