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.

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?

Mineral Makeup News : Purely Cosmetics Introduces Econo-Packs

Looks like we’re on the right track, my dear readers!

From the PCA Skin luncheon awhile ago, me and Phoebe were able to get to know Dr. Jennifer Linder, one of the top dermatologists in the U.S. It was a great experience being educated casually by a skin expert, as we learned alot about skin care, acne, anti-aging, and peels.
