FOUNDATION: Nude by Nature


NUDE BY NATURE 

My everyday makeup routine always includes setting my liquid foundation with a dusting of Nude by Nature Natural Mineral Cover. My shade is Light / Medium during Autumn/Winter and Medium during Spring/Summer. 

Nude by Nature Pressed Mineral Cover is great for touch ups.  This pressed powder includes a mirror and is a great alternative if you don't like using loose mineral powder.

Natural Mineral Cover
The feather-light SPF 15 Natural Mineral Cover (15g) formula is build able from a sheer to medium coverage and adapts naturally to skin tones to even out complexion, cover redness and pigmentation, and conceal enlarged pores.  RRP $39.95




I like to apply my Natural Mineral Cover with the Nude by Nature Mineral Brush.

FOUNDATION REVIEW: glō minerals


Luxe Liquid Foundation 


glō minerals REVIEW by Lauren Day 

Finding the perfect foundation for your complexion can be a challenge! Am I right ladies? Especially if you're a Makeup Artist like myself. You've probably tried a lot of different brands. It's all about the consistency, coverage and colour. 

In 2015 my absolute favourite luxury foundation is the new Luxe Liquid Foundation by glō minerals. I highly recommend this beautiful velvety soft foundation as it contains broad spectrum SPF 15 and anti-ageing properties. It's excellent for mature women in their 30's, 40's and 50's. 



Application directions: 
  1. Shake well before each use. 
  2. Using a foundation brush or your fingers, apply Luxe Foundation to the face, blending lightly down the neck. 

www.glo-minerals.com

I have naturally fair skin. My shade is Naturelle. The glass bottle is 30ml. (1 fl. oz.) This foundation's pump is convenient and easy to apply. I prefer applying foundation with a makeup sponge for full coverage. If you prefer using a brush to apply foundation, try glō minerals Ultra Brush

When I go makeup shopping, either online or at my local chemist or department store, I always look for good quality foundation. I believe it's definitely one of the key steps to achieving a flawless finish. Luxe Liquid Foundation is very luxurious and long lasting. The 

glō minerals recommends! 
  • Apply foundation liberally 15  minutes before sun exposure
  • Use a water resistant sunscreen if swimming or sweating
  • Reapply at least every 2 hours


"glō minerals provides coverage that lasts while being kind to the skin."  






I simply adore glō minerals Camouflage Under - Eye Concealer. My shade is beige. For best results, apply with a synthetic or cruelty-free brush. It's excellent for concealing dark circles under the eyes prior to applying glō minerals Luxe Liquid Foundation.

REVIEW: Glo Minerals


glō minerals

I recently got the opportunity to try a new makeup brand called Glo Minerals. This modern mineral makeup company offers prestige and professional quality cosmetics from foundations to blush, eyes and lips to brushes. 

Glo Minerals hero product is their best selling foundation base. This multi-tasker is a pressed powder and mineral foundation in one. It gives your skin a beautiful airbrushed finish. The powder is soft, light, very natural looking and feels really lovely on the skin. 



Glo Minerals Pressed Base $75 
This finely pressed mineral-powder can deliver coverage from sheer to full, depending on the application. It gives a matte coverage, which means there is not sheen or shine on the face. SPF15. Fine, triple milled minerals lay smooth on the skin. Suitable for all skin types. This foundation provides a sheer to full coverage with a semi-matte finish. Black compact with mirror and round sponge.


Glo Minerals Pressed Base

For maximum results the Pressed Base is best applied with Glo Minerals Ultra Brush. This large flat top powder brush has very soft bristles which makes application quick and flawless! 

Glo Minerals Ultra Brush  $72 
Glominerals signature brush, engineered exclusively for use with gloPressed and gloLoose base. Dense ultra-soft hair offers a seamless all-over medium to full base application. 

Once your pressed base is applied you can set your makeup with the Hydration Mist. Adding this extra set after foundation really gives your skin a more dewy and refreshed look which avoids that heavy matte powdered finish. 

Glo Minerals Hydration Mist $37
A blend of antioxidants and anti-aging benefits in a mist that hydrates instantly. Spritz the skin before or after makeup application and to refresh the skin throughout the day. Use when skin feels dry, when exposed to dry climate conditions or when skin needs an instant burst of hydration. Spritz for instant antioxidant enriched hydration, to refresh skin throughout the day or just after mineral base application. Enjoy this exclusive formulation when skin feels dry, when exposed to dry climate conditions or when skin needs an instant burst of hydration. 




Glo Minerals Hydration Mist

To conceal and correct blemishes, uneven skintones, redness, pigmentation and dark under eye circles - Glo Minerals has a great selection of professional quality concealers. My favourite concealer is their under-eye concealer.  The lightweight creamy texture is very pigmented and doesn't crease! 

Glo Minerals Camouflage Under-Eye Concealer   $54
Glo Minerals Under-Eye Concealer offers rich pigments to conceal and clinically advanced treatment ingredients to help improve dark circles and hyperpigmentation. This product contains two colour tones, enabling you to customise the perfect colour match to your skin tone. Its creamy formulation is designed for the sensitive under-eye area, allowing coverage without caking. The moisturizing formulation ideal for under eye area. Apply Concealer to under-eye area gently. Use regularly to help cover and improve the appearance of under eye circles. Also ideal for highlighting the eye area.



Corrective Camouflage Kit  + Under Eye Concealer Duo

Glo Minerals Corrective Camouflage Kit $29
A sheer, easy-to-apply formula that expertly neutralizes and conceals skin discolourations. It is best worn under glo.minerals foundations. Select the appropriate shade of camouflage (use the guide enclosed with the kit for tips!) then stipple product onto desired area. Follow application with glo.minerals base and colour for beautiful, flawless skin.

The Camouflage Kit is great, especially for my professional makeup kit - working with lots of different skin tones I always need good colour corrective concealers that stay put! This compact little kit is perfect for travel and comes with a mini booklet which explains which coloured concealer is used to conceal different skin problems. 

Looking for a gorgeous berry blush this winter, well this gorgeous Glo Minerals powder cheek stain is perfect for that sweet rosy glow! 

Glo Minerals Powder Cheek Stain $34
The Powder Cheek Stain has the vibrant long-lasting color of a stain to keep cheeks flushed with a rosy tone all day and the easy application of a powder blush. Finally, a blush that has the best of both worlds! Apply a pop of color on the apples of the cheeks with the Texture Brush or use the Blush Brush to pull color toward temples and blend. Swim and sweat resistant, apply before going on a swim or to the gym. Perfectly complements a bronzed complexion.
