Maybelline Mineral Power Illuminator

Shimmer and glitter are in, and Maybelline Mineral Power Illuminator has found a way to keep your skin healthy and looking radiant with the harsh ingredients. It’s made with 100% micro minerals without glitter, oils, fragrances and preservatives.

Too much of anything is bad and it’s the same with the Maybelline Mineral Power Illuminator. As with other highlighters and glittery makeup, you don’t want to overdo it. Apply a small amount, check yourself under natural light and adjust accordingly. 

The Maybelline Mineral Illuminator comes in 3 shades: Pink(10), Peach(20) and Nude(30).

Maybelline Mineral Power Bronzer Shimmer Loose Powder

Admit it, wherever you are in the world, if you don’t get enough sun on your skin you get pale and sometimes even yellowish skin. And we don’t want to go out at night and be mistaken as ghosts. This is where the Maybelline Mineral Power Bronzer Shimmer Loose Powder comes into play. It gives you a sun-kissed glow during the cold months when there’s not a lot of sun. It’s 100% micro minerals and copper pearls provide a healthy and natural glow to your face so you don’t look like you sprayed tanning lotion on your face or shoulders.

The Maybelline Mineral Bronzer comes in 3 shades: Sunlight Bronze(10), Sunrise Bronze(20) and Sunset Bronze(30)

Here are some tips from a makeup artist:

Don’t use the Maybelline Bronzer with your liquid foundation.

Apply a small amount of natural color powder as your base.

If you have dry skin, use moisturizer and let it set or dry before applying the bronzer.

Don’t apply all over your face. Apply on areas that the sun usually hits; cheeks, top of the forehead, along the nose and the chin.

Don’t put too much bronzer, apply a thin layer just enough to give your pale skin a subtle glow.

Maybelline Mineral Power Powder Foundation

The Maybelline Mineral Foundation has received several awards and for good reason. It has been clinically proven to reduce skin redness and improve skin smoothness and luminosity in just 8 weeks. Of course, just like any other beauty product out there, it should be used frequently and continuously to get and maintain the good results.

Applying the foundation is a no-brainer: dip the brush and tap out all excess powder then simply sweep over your face. The good thing about Mineral Power Powder Foundation is that you can’t put too much of it unlike liquid foundations. You also don’t have to it off with tissue or wash your face completely if you put too much, you can simply blend it or sweep off excess with a clean brush.

The Maybelline Mineral Power Foundation is available in 8 shades: Classic Ivory(Light 2), Nude(Light 4), Creamy Natural(Light 5), Sandy Beige(Medium 1), Pure Beige(Medium 2), Tan(Dark 1), Natural Ivory(Light 3) and Honey Beige(Medium 4).

As with all powder and liquid cosmetics, the Maybelline Mineral Power Powder Foundation needs to be applied after your moisturizer and sun block has set. Applying on wet skin will produce a cakey and cracked appearance on your skin. 

Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer

The Maybelline Mineral Power Natural is a liquid formula with 100% micro minerals for a healthier skin. This mineral concealer is advertised to improve your under-eye skin by soothing signs of fatigue, hydrating under-eye area and reducing redness and dark spots. Like all the Maybelline Mineral Power makeup it doesn’t contain fragrances, oils, talc and other preservatives.

The Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer has won several awards:

Siempre Mujer - Best in Beauty 2008

Oprah Magazine Spring Makeup O-wards 2008 - Most Comprehensive Mineral Makeup Line

Marie Claire -25 Beauty Products That Will Change Your Life 2008

The Maybelline Mineral Power Concealer comes in 6 shades, namely Fair (10), Ivory (20), Cream (30), Beige (50), Latte (60) and Sand (40). 

To get the best results, use the applicator to dot your problem areas. Pat with your fingers to blend. Do not apply too much on the first application. Let it set and then add a little more if you still need coverage.

.

Before putting on your concealer, make sure that your moisturizer has set on your face. If not, you will have that cakey feel and the concealer will crack as it sets with the moisturizer. Some women immediately apply concealer, foundation and makeup after putting on their moisturizers, which is not going to be good for your powder or liquid cosmetics. So keep in mind to let liquid formulas (moisturizers and sun block) set and dry on your face.

Maybelline Mineral Power Finishing Veil

The Maybelline Mineral Power Finishing Veil is made with 100% micro minerals and doesn’t contain fragrances, oils, talc, preservatives and other ingredients that may harm your sensitive skin. This comes only in natural translucent shade. 

According to the Maybelline Website for best results use as follows:

Use the 100% natural kabuki brush included.

Dip it: Dip brush into cap.

Tap it: Tap brush to remove excess.

Apply it: Apply to face using circular motion.

One of the things you have to remember about the Mineral Power Finishing Veil is that it’s not to be used as a foundation. This is to be used after you put on your make up and illuminate the colors on your face. It often gets a bad review because people tend to use to as a foundation. Other people use it immediately after putting on their liquid foundations to set it and they end up with cakey faces. If used correctly, it’s a perfect finishing touch on your makeup.
