Ive mentioned earlier that Pure Anada is simply heaven-sent because this mineral foundation not only is very much full in coverage, it also just seems to make pores look nonexistent! It’s so flawless that it was a real heartbreak for me when I couldn’t get my exact match with it.

A few days ago, I paid a visit to my friend and co-mineral makeup addict Nikki to try a pot of foundation that seemed too light for her, whose shade was Medium Golden. Upon hearing that name, it seemed like the perfect shade for me since well, my shade was Light to Medium, but I’ve taken a liking for darker shades since I wanted to retain my nonexistent tan, and my shoulders are darker than my face anyway ( that makes me get away with darker or lighter shades ). So, I went ahead and bought her pot of Medium Golden to try out.

Mineral Makeup Review : Finding a Pure Anada Shade Match

I’ve been intrigued about Prescriptives, a high end luxury brand coming up with its own version of mineral makeup. I wondered if it would be as good as the ones that I am using right now, which are sold online, and handmade by very talented mineral makeup formulators, which I so so so love. So, when I got my Prescriptives All Skins Mineral Makeup, I immediately tried it on me as I would want to get an initial feel of this mineral makeup!

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

I don’t know, but everytime I check out Alima‘s new releases for mineral eyeshadows, I can’t help but be appealed on how soft focus their shades are, totally safe, simple, but stunning nonetheless.

Maybe it’s because they’ve taken their inspiration from nature. This time, they expressed their love for rivers with their Rivers Collection.

To be totally honest, the one and only makeup brush by Bare Escentuals that I’ve loved with all my heart would be their Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush. Maximum coverage is maximum coverage, alright, as you can definitely see successful camouflaging areas from small to big, and it’s really heaven-sent.

I’m not really impressed, with their other face brushes on the other hand. Take for example, their Flawless Face Brush. I don’t like how rough the feel was on the skin. I lost faith on Bare Escentuals face brushes, but just recently, I decided to get one of them, and to my surprise, it was heaven.

One day while strolling at the mall, I chanced upon Artdeco, a very under-rated, but very very nice makeup brand. I mentioned way back that they released mineral foundations, that were good enough as deparment store brands ( since most of the brands don’t meet my approval, sigh ). I said hello to the cheerful ladies on the booth, and I got surprised that aside from the mineral foundations they have it pots, they also added something new to their line – mineral foundations in powder-dispensing packaging, and mineral eyeshadows.

Mineral Makeup Mini-Haul : Artdeco Mineral Eyeshadows

I spent the weekend holding a workshop on how to apply makeup to ladies who want to achieve a more polished and made up ( natural look ) for the office. I had so much fun, and of course, I had much more fun introducing to them the concept of mineral makeup. I think I need to plan a mineral makeup workshop soon. I’m getting excited! I just love, love, love teaching. Nothing gratifies me more than imparting knowledge and spreading the mineral makeup love!

Going back to topic, I was praising my dual fibre brush during the entire time being of the workshop because it does not only work wonders for liquid foundation, it’s also a miracle worker for mineral makeup. The Dual Fibre brush, is well, dual fibre because it is made up of animal hair ( in this case, pony ) and synthetic hair. It is miraculous in the sense that it picks up just about the right amount of product that you don’t need to apply too much pressure – just lightly apply on the area, and it’d glide in like an airbrushed finish product. Amazing.
