Thank you to ModernMom I had the opportunity to try an exceptional product called Sheer Cover a non comedogenic, paraben free mineral make up. It's perfect for sensitive skin as well because it is fragrance free. I did receive a variety of product as compensation for my review.
It came with a guide and advertisements Sheer Cover products made to match my skin. I am a red head and skin is light so I did choose Light Medium but they do have for any skin tone or combination of.
Variety of brushes which should be cleaned every other week to keep them fresh, non oily and longer lasting.
This is the Sheer Cover Conceal and Brighten Trio I used the concealer under my eyes to reduce the dark circles I see everyday. I found it easier to use my finger to apply and a brush to blend it in. They are intended to be used together but I found I liked it used seperately as well as together, because my complexion is light I can play around my eyes for a more vivid look.
Sun Kissed Bronzing Minerals..I liked it, it had a little sparkle along with the multi color appearance. Because they are layerable and "blendable they are perfect to be used on any part of your body not just your face. I found I liked them to kind of brighten my face and neck to give a little tannish color that isn't to crazy and wild. The pigmant is perfect for even my skin type and it does not look plastered on. To apply I did use the thicker brush as it is meant as an all over:)
Base Perfector Primer just used to balance out the fine lines or wrinkles that some see as flaws and others as signs of beauty. I generally will use around my eyes and that is it so a little goes a long way in my home.
This is light and the swatch I did was unblended to show true color. To me it blends perfect, it has a soft consistency and found that the brush was the easiest way to apply as it is in a shaker jar. Like any mineral make up there is no particular way to use it but best judgement..take cap off, shake out what you need, swab the brush and tap off excess..apply in circular motion from outside to inside of face, reapply as necessary but don't overdo it (its not Halloween).
Mascara love the texture and the brush is perfect for my lashes(IMO no clumping noted).
Now this was interesting to me when I removed the lid I had never seen this before (sorry kind of felt like carpet when touched) this is meant to be used after applying mascara to create a more dramatic effect and longer lashes. This is most certainly something I would use for a night out on the town probably not for everyday use.
Thank you @ModernMom for this awesome opp. All opinions were 100% my own and all items mentioned facilitated my review. Items received do not promise a positive review.*

I had never tried a mineral makeup before as a full kit, mostly bits and pieces and when you dont use all the similar products the outcome is not always pretty. This kit had a variety of brushes and the color combination of product was right on. The primer gave me the little line cover i needed while the concealer really added to the pleasing quality. The powder foundation in LIGHT was a right on match for me as a red head with no freckles. The bronzer was my favorite the shimmer and touch of color was perfectly stated for any complexion, for me it created a hue to face and neck but it was not so dark colored that it looked fake. The brushes were great quality I noticed no disintegration while using and they were easy t clean. I thought the kit was very well thought out and provided product for any complexion.
I don't normally wear makeup, but this sure does sound like a great brand. I will have to keep this in mind if I do start wearing it.
ReplyDeleteI will check it out. I usually wear sephora.
ReplyDeleteI love the Sheer Cover with the multiple colors. I don't wear make up anymore but I bet that would cover my eye bags and brown spots.
ReplyDeleteI don't normally wear makeup either, but for nights out this sounds great. Could definitely use something to conceal those dark circles under the eyes!
ReplyDeleteI like these colors. I only wear makeup on date night once a week. Sheer cover looks perfect for my needs.

Looks like nice make up products! I don't wear make up always but I play them sometimes to get a feeling if the product agrees to my skin and play with shades.
ReplyDeleteNot so much of a makeup girl but I am really curious about the difference of mineral makeups to those which are not.
