Makeup To Impress, Not To Distress

How many times have you browsed the magazines, only to find yourself green with envy with the gorgeous models featured in prints, with their spotless, poreless, and wrinkle-free skin? All thanks to the computer software used by graphic artists to create these unreal images, most women would tend to go over the top, tempted to try recreating it in real life. The “wetware” available to us (ie.foundation and concealer makeup) CAN indeed help to erase the imperfections, but where do we draw the line between a perfect complexion and a high-maintenance artificial skin?

While it is important to choose a shade and formula that are appropriate for your skin colour and type, your application techniques can make a huge difference. Unless you’re a professional makeup artist who knows how to blend shades and foundations for certain skin shade and type, the best way you can go for a perfect makeup is to go for a makeup brand that offers not only multiple choice of colors but also suitable for sensitive type of skin. One such as the Mineral Secrets brand. Light-as-air, non-shiny cosmetic- was designed originally for men and women with highly sensitive skin types.

When it comes to makeup, my favorite would be the makeup base. Makeup base is the most important part of a makeup routine because it is perfect for evening out your skin tone, making your face appears to be flawless. I would recommend the Mineral Makeup Base, an easy-to-use hypoallergenic liquid powder that comes with a natural sun screen by up to 15 protection. The velvety smooth fluid triples as a foundation, sunblock and anti-ager – perfect for liquid foundation lovers who shy away from mineral powders.

Mineral Secrets makeup offers an extensive makeup collection from earth tone to fun colors. Suitable for both teenagers who wants to explore the fun and beauty of makeup to the adults who enjoys a classic, beautiful makeup. Be it for eyebrows, eyes, cheek, lips – you will find it all from Mineral Secrets.

My favorite of all? Their makeup brushes of course! Remember my last post on Goth makeup where I used extensive collection of brushes for different makeup application? Well, you can have your own makeup brushes collection from Mineral Secrets too. For a non-professional makeup artist, I’d suggest you to go for the Mini Wooden Brush Set by Mineral Secrets.

Packed in a travel sized brush bag, the brush collection consists of 7 makeup brushes: Powder, Blush, 2x Eye Shadow, Lip, Eyebrow and Mascara brushes. All for only $49. Awesome deal I must say!

    I almost never wear make up nowadays, but I bought last week a lipstick. A moisturising one, and I like it.

    It wasn’t nearly half as expensive at the brushes though.LOL!
