Spring is upon us and I don’t know about you, but my mug could do with a little infusion of seasonal glow. Enter Pur Rocks, a new goodie from mineral makeup giant Pur Minerals that adds natural-looking dimension with blush-colored crystals.
I grazed the Pur Minerals Powder Brush over Pur Rocks’ crystals and applied to the [...]
Spring has sprung, and it’s time for me to shed my pasty winter pallor in favor of a season-appropriate glow. In my search for an all-natural radiance a la Gisele, I tried Zosimos Botanicals’ Butternut Bronzer.
Butternut is the perfect name for this bronzer’s shade: it’s a light chestnut-y brown with just a touch of warm [...]
Since I thought Foxy Mineral Makeup’s Really Awesome lip balm was—well, really awesome, they gave me a sneak peek at their upcoming shade of lip gloss called Crème Brûlée. (Ah, I love being a blogger.) I’d wear it just for the taste—it’s as delectable as its dessert namesake!
Mineral makeup has been getting a lot foxier lately, so it’s no surprise that a new brand called Foxy Mineral Makeup is making waves among the ecofabulous. In fact, their Really Awesome Lip Balm has become my cold weather staple for soothing winter’s chapped lips.
Though I love all kinds of makeup, my favorite type is eyeshadow. There are just so many wonderful effects to be created! That’s one of the numerous reasons Pur Minerals’ Inspire, Reflect, Celebrate Eye Palette from their holiday Brilliance Collection is my current pet palette. This palette contains 15 eyeshadows and comes with a step-by-step [...]

It seems there’s a new mineral makeup foundation every day, but Pur Minerals was among the first to the craze along with their Bare colleagues. I’m a bit behind the times in just now reviewing Pur Minerals’ products, but it was well worth the wait!
Unlike many mineral makeup foundations, Pur Minerals didn’t leave my face [...]
I’ve finally jumped on the mineral makeup bandwagon: my favorite base of the moment is RAWMinerals Foundation and their maximum coverage foundation brush.
I got the foundation in Medium 1, and surprisingly, it matched my skin really well. I’m usually in the pale ivory whitest-of-the-white category, but not this time ( I can thank all my [...]
The mineral makeup craze is booming! Let’s try out the new rating system on Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer.
coverage: 5/5
For a drugstore product, I was impressed. This baby blotted out my dark undereye circles with the greatest of ease!
texture: 3/5
While it was thick and matte, the finish wasn’t amazing and was almost grainy-looking. [...]
My Chanel foundation has turned me into a snob. I tried Rimmel’s new and improved version of Lasting Finish 16 HR Foundation with Minerals, fully expecting it to suck just because it’s from the drugstore. What’s happened to me? I used to be so open-minded…well, that and cheap. But this product managed to surprise me! [...]
