Join the Revolution

We live in a world that is constantly changing. Ironically, at the same time our world is trying so hard to return to the elements of Mother Nature. It is a revolution of sorts, the "green revolution" if you will. As devoted citizens we do our part as we try to recycle everything we can and be a warrior for preservation. Everywhere we turn we see campaigns for saving our planet with “eco friendly” merchandise. The cosmetics industry is not blind to this effort and has revolutionized its line with “mineral powder” products. Mary Kay has been and will continue to be an award winning, front runner with their mineral powder line.  
"MIRACLE" Mineral Powder
by Mary Kay
So exactly what is all of the “hoopla” about when it comes to mineral powder makeup products? I decided to do some research to uncover the exact allure in addition to my own personal desire of this type of makeup. Today I am going to focus on Mineral Powder Foundation. First and foremost, mineral powder makeup is proven to be better for you. The mineral foundations are made from all natural and gentle ingredients that do not damage your skin. They do not contain fillers, oils, dyes or any harsh chemicals. Taking these factors into consideration is just added proof that these foundations are the best for you because they will not cause irritation or infections of your skin. This is especially important considering the largest area to which it is applied is your face….your most visible pallet!!

Beautiful, Complete Coverage
Another attraction of the mineral powder foundation is that it gives better coverage. Typically you may use a concealer under your foundation to do just that- conceal!! The purpose of a concealer is to “hide” the unattractive areas on your face that need extra coverage. Using a mineral powder foundation can eliminate your need to purchase and use concealer. It is ideal for concealing scars, small pimples, brown or red spots, blemishes. They provide superior coverage due to the lack of cheap, unnatural and unhealthy fillers. This type of foundation has also been proven to be the best for concealing skin disorders such as acne, Rosacea and Melasma. Tests and studies have shown that mineral powder foundations are wonderful for acne sufferers. Not only do they provide complete coverage, they also help to calm and heal inflammation brought on by acne. Mineral powder foundations will give you an even and natural looking coverage that you can wear all by itself on days that you prefer to be more casual. Or you can totally dress it up with your other makeup products and be pure glamourous!!

Transform Yourself with Just One Product
Mineral powder foundations are also great for those who suffer from dry skin because the minerals “trap” moisture in the skin and help your skin feel hydrated all the time. Personally I have fallen in love with the mineral powder foundation. Within the last two years the skin on my face has undergone an “oily phase” awakening several realizations to say the least!! The mineral powder foundation has been a lifesaver for me and is wonderful for my oily skin. I no longer have to perform “face checks” due to worrying about an embarrassing and shiny face. Just the way that it will”trap” moisture in dry skin it will also “trap” the oils in oily skin. It also gives you a weightless feel to your makeup unlike the “caked on” feeling of wearing a liquid foundation, concealer and a loose powder. This foundation is truly light as a feather! Mineral powder foundations work perfectly on all ages. It works great on mature skin because it refracts light which in turns minimizes the appearance of fine lines, imperfections, discolorations and wrinkles.  Loose mineral foundation is the purest form of foundation available and is appropriate for every skin type, including those with very oily or sensitive skin. Simply put it is the BEST foundation choice for all ages and skin types.

Perfect and Economical
The third and possibly best allure of mineral powder foundation is the cost. Mary Kay’s Mineral Powder Foundation costs $18.00 and you will be amazed at just how long it lasts.  “A little goes a long way” certainly proves to be true with this product. As I mentioned previously, it’s concealing effects are amazing and will definitely save you money. By having the superb coverage of a mineral powder foundation, you will no longer need a liquid foundation, a concealer and then a loose powder to set your makeup in place. The mineral powder foundation does it all for a mere fraction of the cost. Who doesn’t love that?!?!


If you have never used a mineral powder foundation you may be wondering about the application process. Honestly, it is a breeze. The natural pigments that mineral products contain blend easily and effortlessly on the skin. This type of foundation must be applied with a brush or a sponge. DO NOT USE YOUR FINGERS!!! I personally recommend using a good brush for the application of this product. Using a brush to apply the foundation will allow for you to distribute the minerals evenly and ensure a “streak free” face. When choosing your foundation brush be sure that its bristles are consisted of high density hair. It should also be short, soft and firm. Mary Kay’s Mineral Foundation Brush is just that and priced very affordable at only $10.00.  Remember using makeup brushes comprised of synthetic bristles is damaging to your skin because of the chemicals they contain and their hard texture. You will turn your container upside down and tap on the bottom a few times to release the powder into the lid. Turn the container right side up and unscrew the top. Place your brush in the powder that has presented itself on top and lightly tap your brush into the lid to eliminate the excess powder. Then simply begin brushing it across your face until all of the desired areas are covered. It's as easy as 1-2-3!!!
