Minerals



I hinted around my new found love of mineral makeup. Let me elaborate.
It's really expensive, but so worth it. It cost $60 to get a starter kit. It comes with two shades of foundation, "warmth," a.k.a. bronzer, mineral veil, two big brushes, and a concealer brush. It also came with a free lipstick and free eyeshadow, since I bought it at the new boutique at the local mall.
Pretty much it feels like you're wearing nothing, and looks like you're wearing nothing, while still offering coverage. That sounds confusing, but what I mean is that hides all your imperfections, while allowing the beautiful side of your skin to shine through. It looks like you have flawless, makeup free skin. Who doesn't want that? Everyone should find a local boutique and get a "make-under." The brushes are so soft, it's like a mini face massage. Anyway, if you try it, you'll want to buy it. I hear the starter kit lasts for like, a year, which makes the cost not so terribly concerning.

Hey Marta, How is it for sensitive skin/eyes? I usually avoid make-up like the plague because it makes my eyes water and my head hurt. Does it wash off with just water? Do they make mascara? (Guess I should talk to you in person about this :-)

My life is definitely changed Rachel!
Ali, I tried the mascara once, and liked it a lot. I didn't try the waterproof, so it came off pretty easily. I was actually thinking of you when I was trying it. Because it really is pure minerals, nothing else, it may be perfect for you, but I would definitely take a morning and go try it on for a day.

Hey Teresa!

Life is great, just normal! I guess you just get used to whatever you're doing. We're just renting a house from A's aunt, I'm going to school, and A is working. I guess it's kinda boring... No cute babies like YOU! You're little one really is adorable. Thanks for commenting, now I can read your blogs too :)
