here’s a continuation of my little series on the new all natural products i’m using. 100% pure fruit pigmented tinted moisturizer was the first all natural beauty product i reviewed. it’s a great product and you can check out all the details in the post i wrote on it.
everyday minerals is a company that i really love and i have actually used there products for 3-4 years now. their customer service is stellar and i have gotten quite a few freebies with each order that i’ve placed. it can be difficult buying makeup online and this company lets you choose free samples that come with your order. this has helped me tremendously in determining the proper colors for my skin. this company is organic, vegan and eco-friendly. animal lovers will also like that they do not test on animals – much love to our furry friends! here’s a great introduction to the company.
i started using the base first. i cannot get over how reasonably priced it is (along with everything else that Carina sells)! i wear makeup on average 5-6 days a week. i only have to order it once every 10 months or so. this base gives good coverage and i only use a light dusting. i would definitely say that a little goes a long way. the base comes in a variety of finishes such as matte, semi-matte, intensive, and satin. it’s nice to be able to choose which finish you like as, with changing seasons, your needs may change. i have a light complexion and this summer i have been using the medium beige neutral base intensive. this base is a bit darker than i would normally wear; however, i had the bright idea to switch to a darker base and just omit using bronzer. i’ve done this for the last two months and it’s worked out very well!
thanks to the free samples, i discovered how wonderful the concealer (color is use is: aussie perk me up) and blush are. again, it does not take much to get the look i’m trying to achieve. i guess i should point out that i do not like heavy makeup. i go for a natural, yet polished look. the concealer gives great coverage and there are many shades of the blush that i’ve tried and really like too. for the last year or so i’ve been using the color once and again for blush. to give a little shimmer, i use the come what may on top blush – i just dust this on my cheeks last. this makeup is definitely lightweight on the skin. my skin still feels like it is able to breathe while having this on all day. and yes, it does stay on all day. even on my busiest work days when i am outside in the southeastern heat running after children, i still have makeup on when i get home from work until i remove it during my shower.
everyday minerals offers a full line of makeup with a large variety of colors and finishes. i highly recommend you peruse the site and consider it next time you need makeup.
so tell me, what is your daily makeup routine? i’d love to hear!
*this is a product that i use, love & buy with my own money. i was not compensated for this review & all opinions are 100% honest.
