The last review I did on the Artdeco Mineral Foundation was when I used their tester at the local mall, and spend hours observing my skin. Now that I’ve got me a full pot of Artdeco Mineral Foundation, I was able to observe, and review it for a whole day’s roadtest!

A Follow-Up Review of Artdeco Mineral Foundation

Halloween’s just around the corner, and of course, there’s still no excuse not to use mineral makeup! Kiddies out there who wish to have their face paint done together with their very cute costumes can actually opt to use mineral makeup, because it’s safe for the skin, without preservatives and chemicals – and kids can definitely make do without the potential irritants to their skin!

What’s New : Meow Cosmetics Halloween Mineral Makeup

I’ve been using liquid or cream-based foundation lately for my work, since it’s too messy and tedious to bring with me loose minerals on photoshoots. I personally love loose mineral foundation, but I definitely need a car, and a very secure train case equipped with lights and all those platters to keep me sane as I use them for work.

Aside from Skin Alison Raffaele, I am still on the lookout for really good mineral makeup that can perform as well as traditional makeup, in the professional sense. I stumbled into Go Minerals Cosmetics,and I was given a chance to try their Cream to Powder Mineral Foundation.

Mineral Makeup News : Purely Cosmetics Introduces Econo-Packs

Yesterday, I was able to do makeup for my sister’s photoshoot, and it was just the perfect opportunity to roadtest the liquid mineral foundation that I’ve been hoping to work nicely – Skin Alison Raffaele’s Liquid Foundation. I’ve been wanting to collect good mineral makeup with the hope of one day, I will be able to have a traincase full of just mineral makeup for me to take on the road. It’s quite a challenge, especially here in my country where everything is humid and melts pretty easily.

Results? Here they are.

Mineral Makeup Look : Skin Alison Raffaele Liquid Foundation

From the moment I received the Purely Cosmetics Skin Smoothing Mineral Foundation in Maria, a deadringer shade for medium and warm skin, I’ve been wearing it for two days straight to roadtest. In this blog, you might notice that I’ve been reviewing foundations more than any mineral product ( well, I have a few blushes and eye products set to be reviewed next week ! ) because I believe that mineral makeup is amazingly life-saving in this department- the face. Even traditional makeup could not give this much flawless finish to the face like mineral makeup does, with added benefits, and being non-irritating as well!

Mineral Makeup Review : Purely Cosmetics Skin Smoothing Mineral Foundation

I was so so happy yesterday as I came home with two packages. One from Purely Cosmetics ( which I finally nailed the shade, yay! review’s for tomorrow!) and one is the package from Pure Anada. My co-mineral makeup lover pal Aileen sent me samples of mineral foundations in Mountain View and Ivory Chinook ( which is good for fairly light warm skin tones ) , and I was not able to find my shade in them, but was able to find a very good ( no not just very good, but extraordinarily good! ) mineral foundation in Pure Anada! So imagine my glee when the samples I ordered finally landed.

Amongst the 12 samples worth $9 (with free shipping, isn’t that great? ), I immediately grabbed the three foundation shades: Golden Harvest, Soft Wheat, and Mountain Sunset. ( on the first photo, from L-R, and Mountain Sunset is at the bottom ) Here are swatches on my tissue paper :

Initial Review of Pure Anada Mineral Foundation

I’ve been told by a good friend that Pure Anada Mineral Foundation is Holy Grail ( HG ) material. After endless google searches, with my poor eyesight reading it as “Ananda” instead of “Anada,” I am unable to find it until she gave me the link to the store, which is sold at The Pure Boutique.
