Your Personal Makeup Artist Make Up Tips, Tricks, and Techniques from Professional Make Up Artists

Mineral makeup offers some of the most popular makeup products that you can get your hands on, but it is important to spend your money wisely and know which products are best for you. Here are the top five mineral makeup products from various brands that you definitely need to have in your makeup bag!

1. Bare Escentuals Hydrating Mineral Veil: This is a sheer mineral product that will hydrate your skin, and it also works as a primer to absorb oil and help your mineral makeup go on better for a longer wear. It is best to be worn before you put on your makeup to keep the rest of your foundation in place all day long, while keeping your skin moisturized.

2. Urban Decay Surreal Skin Mineral Makeup: This is a powdered mineral makeup foundation that will sit lightly on your skin and keep your face looking flawless all day long. Mineral makeup foundation uses milled mineral ingredients from the earth, so it stays light on your skin while providing full coverage.

3. Amazing Cosmetics Velvet Mineral Pressed Powder Foundation: This is a great foundation alternative to have to the loose mineral powder form because it still will provide a soft and full mineral coverage without any powdery mess. This is something that you can use to alternate with your other powdered mineral makeup foundation, depending on where you are going that day. This may be more suitable for an evening out with a fuller makeup application because it provides a heavier coverage with a matte finish.

4. Terracotta Mineral Flawless Bronzing Powder: When you have finished your mineral face makeup, it is important to give a warm glow to your complexion with the use of a bronzing powder. This product still uses mineral ingredients, and it will give you a natural tan finish to your complexion, without any sun damage, of course! Again, this product uses mineral ingredients, so it is much more gentle on your skin than many self tanners or bronzers found on the market today. It does come with a mini kabuki brush, which is exactly what you need for an easy and full mineral makeup application.

5. Bare Escentuals 100% Natural Lipcolor: Now mineral makeup products even offer lipcolor, and this lipstick is 100% natural! This is very important to keep within your makeup bag because it does not use any artificial ingredients, and the lip pigment is made from mineral ingredients from the earth. Since there are no preservatives within this lip product, you don't have to worry about it drying out your lips and causing irritation. They also have a large variety of colors to choose from!

As you can see, mineral makeup products are more popular than ever, but these are the staples that you need to keep within your makeup bag at all times. Using these basics will help you to have a flawless makeup application with a beautiful finish every time!
