Okay, so I have a question.

WILL THIS NEVER END? Take note that the manner that I said it ( at least, in my mind ) is like me, with clenched teeth, excited, happy because mineral makeup sales are just always here, but more frustrated because with my happiness, the consequence is cash outflow! Hahahaha! Who’s with me? I bet alot of you are!

The Blush Vixen looks so excited with her new blush find : Alima Minerals’s Luminous Shimmer Blush!

My appetite for blushes is insatiable! So I was more than happy to know that a few samples from Alima are coming my way. *Clapping! *

With the blushes came a sample of their Satin Matte foundation in Jaipur (G-4), a medium golden shade. I cannot believe it really IS matte. Come on! Thanks to my oilies, it turned into a dewy glow that spells healthy skin. The finish is one of the very best I’ve tried so far. I’m actually contemplating on getting a full pot in the future.

Mineral Makeup For a Fresh Summer Look

As a mineral makeup addict gets to try heaps of mineral makeup, she learns to classify, specifically the foundation : sheer, medium , and heavy coverage. In this entry, I’d like to share application techniques for mineral makeup foundations that offer sheer coverage to the skin.

Mineral makeup foundations that offer sheer, light coverage are as versatile as full coverage ones. Notable brands that offer this kind of coverage are Bare Escentuals, Alima, Lumiere, Lauren Hutton, and more. They are so great to use because on a hot, summer day when you just can’t bear the feel of makeup on your skin, they feel as light as air, and they do not make you feel too made up. If anyone thinks that foundations that offer sheer coverage are only for flawless skinned girls, well, that’s where I beg to differ. These sheer beauties offer buildable coverage that can cover enough that you want to hide!
