Everybody seems to be talking about mineral make-up at the moment, so I decided that the time had come to try it out, and tell you about it.

What makes mineral make-up so special is that:

a) it’s much easier to apply than regular foundation,

b) it’s completely natural, and

c) it’s good for your skin.

Mineral make-up is made of (insert drumroll here) just minerals. Nothing else. No parabens. No oils. No fillers.  Nothing. It doesn’t block pores like regular foundation, and it is brilliant at covering blemishes and redness. Are you convinced yet?

It’s very easy to apply, using a brush called a Kabuki. You tip a tiny amount of the mineral make-up powder into the lid, swirl the brush in it, and then apply in circular motions to your face and neck, blending it evenly. It’s extremely easy, I’ve never looked more perfectly made up, and you just don’t get that caked on look, or tide marks.

So if you’re a regular make-up wearer, give this a try.  And if you’re not (like me), I’d still recommend giving it a try, it may change the way you feel about make-up.
