I recently discovered another brand of mineral make-up from a friend, it’s called Everyday Minerals. It was so cool so you can order free makeup samples, you just need to pay for the shipping! Although the sizes are very small, it is still fine.
I got so excited browsing the website that before I got my free samples, I ordered another kit! This time, the make up sizes are larger and I got a brush and a mixing container.
So weeks after finally using the make up here’s some kind of review/feedback I have:
- Cheaper than the first mineral make up I used (if you don’t use much blush or eye make up, you can just order the smallest size. No need to buy the big size unless you love that shade/color that you want to eat it.)
- Free samples
- Tons of colors/shades/shiny vs matte to choose from and it seems that they are continuously expanding their selection for the consumer’s delight.
- Mix and match your colors to achieve a more suitable colors for your fez.
- I saw a review on youtube, and this girl said that b.e.’s has more finely milled minerals than everyday minerals. I say it’s true. However, I neither she nor I see it as a problem. You’ll get to mix the minerals and they will be parted (sorry, couldn’t think of a better term) eventually.
- When applying the make up, it sticks to your face easily and the color is very visible unlike b.e. I don’t know if this is a good thing or not. I guess it depends. At first, my face came out too light. I guess I put too much foundation on my face, I looked like an espasol. Hehehe. As I learned to apply the make up, the result is not that bad.
- The foundation colors I got are too light! This is probably my fault. I should’ve gotten a darker shade. Maybe I will get one and see its effect by itself vs combining the dark and lighter shade. I guess my skin falls between the fair-medium and tan complexion.
- I guess their color guide is misleading which led me to buy foundation that are much lighter shade than my skin.
- Like b.e., the longer the mineral make up stays on my face, the better my face looks. I guess what they advertise is right, it helps improve your complexion (or it’s just my illusion!).
- Also, even if I thought I put a lot of make up, my face tends to absorb it and after an hour or so, I just look like I have nice healthy complexion.
So far that’s all I can think of (because I got distracted). All in all, I like and I may get some more. mwahahahahahahahah….
Aayy, I’ve been hearing lots of good things about mineral make-up, I want to try it na tuloy! I think it only has just arrived here, and I’m sure mahal yan, but I have an officemate who has tried it and super ok nga daw. What makes it different from the normal makeup though? Mas fine yung powder nung makeup, ganun? I actually know nothing about it, haha. But yeah, definitely interested in trying it!
Nadala lang ako ng infomercial kaya nag try ako.
Difference from other make-up, I thought you can get a more natural look with it, or ako lang yun. Isa pa, feeling ko parang hindi masyado nakaka damage ng balat. Baka naman feeling ko lang din yun. Hehehe..
Oh isa pa, hindi raw sya powder (non talc chuva) kundi minerals. Wehe, whatevah!
Depende yata sa brand. Yung kasalukuyan kong ginagamit which is everyday minerals, mas mura ng di hamak sa bare escentuals.
I love EM! But I think application-wise it’s better to get a really good buffing brush. Somehow it makes a big difference.
I’m starting to love EM, too! I guess because I’m starting to learn how to apply make up. teehee..
I use the bare escentual’s small kabuki brush, i think it’s good for application.
Hi Cat,
I also ordered 2 samples of foundation (light olive and medium olive yata) -maganda nga ang effect.
Tos
glad you liked it. Maganda nga sya at ang daming colors to choose from! I learned that I don’t need to buy big containers, I can be content with the sample sizes and have plenty of colors to play with.
