Ask Chelle - Mineralicious Foundation 411

May 26 2010No Commented

Categorized Under: Ask Chelle, Product Info

questionOne of the most asked questions is regarding choosing a formula and shade for foundations. Today we're going to talk about the full line of Mineralicious! Foundations :)

Foundations – what is the difference in the formulas?

Sheer Glow is our “lightest” coverage foundation. Made with a mix of sericite and titanium dioxide, it provides a light coverage with a hint of color. This formula is great for women who need to slightly even out their skin tone and a sheer coverage. Of our 3 formulas, this is the formula with the “glow” that many mineral company foundations have. Ingredients also include oxides and mica.

Satin is our “medium” coverage foundation. The Satin formula has a blend of rice powder, kaolin, titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. It provides a satiny finish. This formula is good for most women. Our Satin line also includes oxides and mica as ingredients.

Matte is our “full coverage” foundation. It provides more of an opaque coverage without feeling heavy. It has more of a flat finish and works well for women with mature/experienced skin. This formula also contains the most titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, both great for sun protection as well as soothing the skin. The Matte line ingredients include titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, magnesium stearate, kaolin, rice powder, oxides and mica.

Full ingredient list for all foundation formulas below.

How to pick a shade

We have 6 different shades of mineral foundation: Creamy Ivory, Creamy Beige, Medium, Medium Tan, Tan and Caramel Cream. The Creamy Ivory is the lightest and is meant for very fair skin. The Creamy Beige is a touch darker than the Creamy Ivory and is for fair to not quite medium complexions. The Tan is darker than the Creamy Beige with Caramel Cream being the darkest of all. We also have “cool” and “warm” foundation shades.

We know that choosing a foundation blend and color can be a daunting process, so we have both shade samplers as well as formula samplers.

Warm? Cool? Neutral?

As if choosing a formula and shade wasn't enough to drain your brain, we also have tone to deal with lol The Warm tones have a yellowish undertone and the Cool tones have a pinkish undertone. The basic concept is to look at the color chart and determine which colors you look best in. If you look awesome in colors from both sides, you are neutral. If you look better in the colors on the warm side, then you are "warm", same thing on the "cool" side. However, just like with any other rule, there are exceptions! Some people use hair & eye color to base which tone family you should be in. When in doubt, always order samples first before a full size :)

Not Just Another Eyeshadow

May 17 2010one Commented

Categorized Under: Recipes

We've all done it...bought a shade of eyeshadow that we thought would be absolutely slammin' and once we put it on,  we realize it's just not our shade. Or perhaps you have a favorite color that you would wear all over, including in your hair if you could figure out how to get it to stay! Well today we're going to talk about one use you may not have thought about for your mineral eyeshadows!


limeaid2

Today we're going to be using Limeaid, our Color of the Month.

It's bright. It's sassy. It's a gorgeous color for the summer months! Great with dark skin tones, tan skin and even a Casper white kinda gal like me can pull it off ;)

Especially when I do this:

limeaidnails2limeaidnails

Cool huh? Easy to do as well. Not quite as easy as opening a bottle of premixed polish, but it's not like I'm gonna have you grinding minerals to make your own here ;)

The first time you try this, I suggest a cheap bottle of clear fingernail polish, a small container that you don't mind throwing out or a thick piece of plastic to mix on and of course, the eyeshadow that you want to presto chango :) You'll also need toothpicks, paper towels and I'd keep a bottle of polish remover handy just in case. If you're like me and you love to change polish colors to suit your mood, grab some paint brushes as well...the cheap ones are fine so long as they don't shed since you don't want hairy nails. *Note* Cover your work area! Always always always. I usually mix polish on a section of ceramic tile that I don't mind if it gets messed up.

Ok, now it's mad scientist time! Pour a small amount of the clear polish into the container or on the plastic you're mixing on. Add some of your mineral eyeshadow to the polish, mix until incorporated with the polish. Test it out and see how it looks. If it needs a little more color, add more mineral eyeshadow until you reach the desired shade but be careful not to mix too much in or it won't apply smoothly (ask me how I know lol). Once you have the desired shade, simply paint your nails as usual, using the paintbrush or the brush in the clear polish bottle (be sure to clean it before putting it back in the polish bottle otherwise the color will transfer into your clear polish). I always follow with a top coat to ensure durability :)

And there ya have it! A new use for all of those samples and shades that you may not wear!

Enjoy!

Chelle

May is Mental Health Month

May 4 2010No Commented

Categorized Under: Bipolar Disorder, Mental Health Month

Last month, we focused on Autism Awareness, a cause close to my heart as my daughter has Autism Disorder. For the month of May, we turn the spotlight on Mental Health, something else that is close to my heart as well.

As a person with Bipolar Disorder, I too well know the stigma associated with having a mental illness and how drastically mental illness not only effects the life of the person who has the disorder, but those around them as well. This month I will be blogging about my story as well as sources of help and information for those who deal with being 'mentally different' on a daily basis.

Although Mental Health Month is for all mental illnesses & disorders, I will mainly focus on Bipolar Disorder and Depression, as those are the two that I am most familiar with.

~ 15% of all sales for the month of May will be donated to the NAMI - National Alliance on Mental Illness. NAMI is the nation's largest grassroots organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals and families affected by mental illness. Founded in 1979, NAMI has affiliates in every state and in more than 1,100 local communities across the country. More information available: www.nami.org

Congratulations!

Color of the Month

~ May Color of the Month is Limeaid!

You really have to see this shade to believe it....it looks like a very very bright lime green (and it is lol) but it goes on shimmery with a hint of lime color. A great summer shadow! And as May 2010 Color of the Month, you get 10% off all month long!


Product of the Month

~ May Product of the Month - our brand new product 100% Pure Australian Emu Oil!  Emu oil has so many uses and benefits, it is hard to pick a place to start! It is an awesome moisturizer and skin protector that is great for conditioning elbows, knees and heels but is still light enough to use on your face. It can reduce the itching and flakiness of dry skin as well, which makes it wonderful for the treatment of eczema and psoriasis. It is also a proven anti-inflammatory and can help relieve pain and soreness of muscles and joints. And if all of that wasn't enough, it contains powerful antioxidants that can help improve the condition of aging skin AND it is good for lessening the pain and scarring of burns, insect bites and stings. It is truly a multipurpose product!

Emu oil naturally contains Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Linoleic Acid and Oleic Acid. It is hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, so it won't cause skin irritation or clog your pores. It is a highly penetrating oil that absorbs without leaving a greasy slippery feeling behind.

No matter what condition you are using it for, Emu oil is bound to become a standard part of your skin care routine!

Regularly $4.99 - May Product of the Month discount makes it $4.49! Try it today!
