Your Guide to Mineral Makeup

Switching to mineral makeup may be the best decision you'll ever make for your skin. Think about how much your face will benefit from less exposure to unnecessary mystery ingredients, potentially toxic synthetic chemicals, and questionable synthetic preservatives! Don't you feel fresher already?

 

Jumping into the world of mineral makeup can be intimidating, however, especially if you've never purchased it before. We threw together this simple guide to help you understand the basics and how to use them.

 

Mineral Foundation

 

We guarantee our organic mineral foundation will feel silky smooth and feather light. It's available in a variety of shades for every skin tone, and that includes our select mix of certified organic botanicals and vitamins to nourish your skin. It also provides physical sun block at an SPF 20 to give you daily protection when you're on the go.

 

To apply our mineral foundation, tap out a small amount of mineral foundation powder into the lid of the container. We suggest you start with a thumbnail size amount. Use our vegan kabuki brush to pick up a small amount of powder in a swirling motion. Keep swirling your kabuki brush into the mineral foundation powder until the kabuki brush bristles are fully charged with the powder. Tap off the excess and begin gently buffing the powder foundation onto your face. Begin the buffing process at your jawline and work inward. Our lightweight mineral powder creates a luminous finish when applied with our vegan kabuki brush in soft circular motions. This application technique gives you the ultimate control for building layers of coverage.

 

Don’t forget: Mineral foundation is incredible, but you'll get better results with a couple more products. Use our organic infused mineral concealer to cover trouble spots or dark circles, and let our translucent mineral setting powder lock in your look for the entire day.

 

Mineral Blush

 

Once you've built a flawless base, it's time to add some color. Our organic infused mineral blush is the perfect way to brighten up your cheeks. We carry six velvety shades to match any skin tone and personality. And, of course, it is one of our entire line of soy-free cosmetics.

 

The vegan blush brush is the perfect tool to apply your chosen shade. The soft and fluffy bristles allow you to control how much pigment you apply. This is especially important for mineral blush since the color is often stronger and more concentrated. With this brush and soft gentle strokes, you'll have perfectly rosy cheeks.

 

Mineral Eyeshadow and Natural Mascara

 

No look is complete without adding some color to your eyes. We carry incredible, organic infused eyeshadow line and a gentle natural mascara to help you feel flawless and fresh. Our mineral eye shadow comes in several delightful tones. You can choose from light, natural shades and bold jewel tones alike. Finish your look with a layer of our silky natural mascara. Beautiful has never felt this good or come so naturally.

 

When it comes to mineral makeup application, we have you covered there too. Our line of vegan cosmetic brushes includes angled precision brushes and soft, oval blending brushes. We even carry precision eyelash curlers so you can curl your lashes pre-mascara for the ultimate eye opening look. The eyelash curler also includes replaceable bumpers so you can keep using it for years and years to come.

 

Mineral Lips

 

To finish your mineral look, you need some lip color. At Afterglow, there are three delicious choices. Our organic infused lip love lipstick is available in 13 beautiful, creamy shades. You can choose from soft neutrals, warm pinks, deep berries, and vibrant reds. Whatever color you like, we have it.

 

The organic infused hydra gloss is fantastic on its own or on top of your favorite base shade. The four sparkling hues will give you the perfect dewy, desirable look. And of course, our lip soothers offer a more neutral, yet equally nourishing experience.

 

When it comes to natural makeup, it's hard to be the quality and selection of Afterglow.
