Mineraux Skin Perfecting Minerals



I love using mineral makeup because..
  1. Unlike traditional chemical-based makeup, majority of its ingredients are natural.
  2. Does not clog my pores, thus allowing my skin to "breathe".
  3. It feels lighter, like I'm wearing no makeup at all!
  4. Does not build up or cake!
  5. Without the harmful synthetic ingredients, it's gentler on my skin - suitable for women with sensitive skin.

And, as promised, here is my honest review of the freebies given to me by Mineraux. I've been using (and loving!) these mineral cosmetics for a month now.


Mineraux Pre
mium Foundation in Neutral Fair

This mineral foundation creates a super matte finish. The powder is very fine; not caky when applied. Most of the time I want a dewy effect so I apply first a bit of moisturizer or make-up base as a primer. My Mum loves this too.









Mineraux Premium Veil in Neutral Veil


This one acts as a finishing powder that seals the foundation in place. It's almost like a translucent powder with super micro shimmers and it easily melts in your skin you won't feel that it's there. Yet sometimes it needs a second application for the effect to be visible.








Mineraux Premium Highlighter in Natural Glow

An excellent highlighter for my cheekbones! I use it after I apply blush on my cheeks. I also use it to contour and highlight areas I want to accentuate.

It also works as a subtle bronzer so if you want a sun-kissed glow, this is the highlighter for you!







Other tips:
  • You will need excellent kabuki brushes for better coverage.
  • Choose the right shades for your skin tone.
  • When trying out cosmetics, allow a considerable time to let the make-up "sit" on your skin to see its real effect.
  • Clean and disinfect your make-up brushes regularly. You don't want bacteria to transfer on your skin.

Rating: 4 stars (Promising make-up line)

Mineraux Grand Launch



Mineraux Skin Perfecting Minerals
officially introduced its complete product line of skin perfecting mineral makeup last May 23, 2009.







Current available Mineraux makeup include mineral foundation, concealer, primer, highlighter, veil, blush, bronzer, eye shadow, eye liner, and eye brow powder. Also available are premium brushes for more precise mineral makeup application.



Mineraux was initially established in November of 2007. Its founders aim to empower Filipina women to develop a healthy self-image through looking and feeling beautiful all the time.



Moreover, for every Mineraux item sold a percentage of its profit goes to the Hands On Manila's Shine Program, a holistic enhancement program for girls and young women.







I received an invitation from Mineraux for their grand launch, unfortunately I couldn't attend the event due to my crucial pregnancy stage. But they were so generous and so kind to send me the freebies and the press kit!



So watch out for my next blog entry about my personal Mineraux products review.

Ellana Mineral Foundation in Hazelnut Latte


I've been using Ellana Mineral Cosmetics for a year now and I've never had any complaints about them ever since, in fact I am very much satisfied with their beauty products.

My alternative to a compact face powder is the Ellana Mineral Foundation. This loose foundation glides on so smoothly and blends easily on skin. It effectively conceals imperfections such as dark spots, acne, fine lines,wrinkles, and pimple marks.

It contains Allantoin for cell regeneration and moisturizing properties and Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide to provide natural sun protection and long-lasting coverage all day.

I'm using the shade Hazelnut Latte in Premium Blend - one of their best sellers. Prices range from Php 100.00 - Php 420.00, depending on product size.



Ellana Mineral Foundation is available in Premium Blend (matte finish), Pure Blend 2-1 Foundation & Concealer (for extra sensitive and dry skin), and Intensive Coverage with Real Pearl Powder (for oily and problem skin).

I'm also using their Awake Mineral Concealer and I'm planning to try their Lip Scrubs.
