Just because I’m a mom doesn’t mean lost my femininity. I like to look nice and I like to spend a little time each day putting on lip gloss, powder, and eye shadow. What I don’t like are heavy makeups that look unnatural and clog my pores! Because I’m a mom and a nurse, I like natural, flawless coverage that accentuates my lips and my eyes (two of my husband’s favorite features!). I also like products that don’t require a lot of time and effort. Trying to put on makeup while my toddler is pulling on my shirt or opening every cabinet in the bathroom is not an easy task.
I recently received the Multi-Task Mineral Starter Kit from Mineral Secrets to review thanks to the Family Review Network. I have tried mineral makeup in the past from a different company and loved it. The only problem with the previous brand was that I had purchased it at a salon…let me clarify…at a salon with salon prices. So once I finished it I never purchased it again because it was so expensive (I was young and single back then). I know from experience that mineral makeup really is the best kind of makeup for your skin. I used to really struggle with breakouts…even into my twenties and that was why I had initially decided to try mineral makeup. My makeup artist had told me that it may help with eliminating some of the problems I was having with my complexion and it did.
Mineral makeup is comprised of serecite, silk powder, titanium dioxide and zinc oxide and helps offer protection from the sun. The makeup is a pure silk powder that offeres flawless, weightless coverage. It is the perfect makeup for any skin-type (normal, oily, dry, sensitive) and won’t clog your pores or lead to breakouts. One of the things I found interesting about mineral makeup is that it doesn’t contain moisturizers because they can promote the growth of bacteria (yuk!). Here is a little more information about Mineral Secrets from the site:
Mineral Secrets’ products offer the makeup attributes you want: wonderfully light, smooth texture, ideal coverage, easy application, wide variety of colors (so you have your favorite color and something new!), long-lasting, natural sun protection, barely noticeable, no harmful ingredients like chemicals, preservatives, oil, fragrances or talc, no clogging pores, nourishes the skin, acts like an antioxidant, covers acne, blemishes, scars and pores and of course, it makes you feel younger and healthier!
The starter kit I received includes two shades of the ultra-sensitive Mineral Base, an ultra-sensitive Multi-Task Shadow, and a Kabuki Brush (which is THE best brush for putting foundation on!). With this little kit, which retails for $32.95, you have your foundation, and a colored shadow that you can use as an eyeshadow, an eyeliner, a lipstick, a blush, and color for clear nail polish. The price isn’t looking so bad is it? And…it lasts a really long time because you don’t need a lot of product to achieve the look you want. It’s really easy to put on and you can basically make the coverage as light or heavy as you need. If you’re not makeup-savvy, this is the perfect makeup for you. If you’re a pro, this is the perfect makeup for you. Check out my video review!
