Teach Yourself: How to Apply Mineral Makeup

Learn how to properly apply mineral makeup in this guide. If you're accustomed to liquid foundations, transitioning to minerals may be a bit challenging at first. However, with the help of our tips, you'll become a pro in no time with consistent practice.

Prepare you skin

When minerals adhere to your skin naturally with the help of your skin's oils, your makeup application is sure to be smoother and more flawless. It doesn't matter what type of skin you have, ensuring your face is clean, hydrated, and primed is key to a flawless makeup application. To start, use a gentle cleanser to wash your face, then apply a thin layer of moisturizer to your entire face, allowing it to fully absorb your skin. This step is crucial, especially if your skin tends to be dry. For those with oily skin, using a primer is essential to keep your makeup in place and prevent the foundation from becoming patchy throughout the day. Apply a light layer of primer all over your face for a polished finish and long-lasting makeup.

Corrector

We offer two mineral colour correctors, green and yellow. To use, lightly dip your brush into the product and tap off any excess into the lid of the jar. Apply a small amount to the desired area and gently blend. The green corrector is perfect for neutralizing redness on the face, ideal for blemishes, acne scars, or red patches. The yellow corrector is great for covering dark areas such as under-eye circles and around the mouth. Both correctors will camouflage imperfections and even out skin tone. For extra coverage on blemishes, follow the same method with concealer, applying small amounts with light brush strokes until the blemishes are concealed.

Miracle Veil

Our transparent miracle veil is suitable for all skin tones and types and can be worn either under or over foundation. The main purpose of this veil is to provide a beautiful finishing touch, as it absorbs excess oils without drying out the skin and gives a softer appearance to pores and fine lines. To apply, pour a small amount into the lid of the jar and dip your brush into the powder. Tap off any excess product before applying light strokes and blending in circular motions across your face. A small amount goes a long way, so apply a light layer for best results.

Foundation

Our mineral foundation is the perfect base for achieving flawless-looking skin. Available in a variety of shades to match different skin tones, our foundation provides buildable coverage that feels lightweight and natural on the skin. To apply, start by prepping your skin with your favorite moisturizer and primer. Then, using a foundation brush or sponge, lightly dip into the product and tap off any excess. Begin by applying the foundation to the center of your face and blend outwards towards your hairline and jawline for a seamless finish.

Bronzer & Blusher

To achieve a natural and defined look with our highly pigmented mineral Bronzer, start by using a small amount to avoid a harsh appearance on top of your foundation. For a more contoured look, gradually layer on more products little by little. To apply, pour some product into the lid of your jar, dip your brush into it, tap off the excess, and blend onto your cheekbones towards the hairline for a natural finish. Define your jawline, forehead, and nose with bronzer for enhanced features. When adding blush, apply a small amount to your brush, tap off excess, and smile while gently blending into the apples of your cheeks for a rosy look. Ensure the blush sits on top of the bronzer for a flushed appearance!
