Mineral Powder Makeup Foundation Application Tips
**Please note that RAESIN IMAGES - Colour ID Minerals Makeup mineral foundations, concealers, and setting powders are the perfect amount of pigment for a flawless coverage.
Colour ID Minerals foundations are 4 in 1 complete coverage, but we do offer mineral concealers, mineral setting powders, as well as our award winning primer/setting Resurface X-treme powder for those whose skin needs a little extra help or for those that use our liquid and cream foundations needing a finishing powder.
How To Apply Colour ID Minerals Makeup Foundation Face Powders
Carefully remove container lid, then sifter. Replace lid on container, shake container upside down lightly tapping to loosen product. Upright container and again carefully remove lid. If you replace the sifter, please be careful so as not to force powder out the edges of the sifter. Most women find they are not able to replace the sifter on the container due to the high amount of product inside the container once they’ve loosened it. It is nice to own a vanity jar to tap out a small amount of powder/product to use with the application method you choose. Sifter jars are sold on our site for your needs, as well as our mineral makeup vanity jars. Perfect for putting your mineral makeup foundation powders in. No mess, perfect for mixing.
Take your time when working with minerals. You will soon find an application method that works great for you. You’ll appreciate the evenness of the color, and concentration that the powder allows for light or heavy coverage.
Apply Mineral Makeup Foundation Dry Method #1
1. (Sifter insert in container) With lid on, softly tap or shake product upside down into lid, if you don’t have one of my sweet, vanity foundation mixing jars, this is a fast, easy method to use.
2. Right container. This allows just the right amount of powder to enter the container between the sifter and lid. Some women like to tap the powder into the lid; some prefer to leave it in sifter area.
3. Using flat part your foundation brush or chiseled powder brush, gently tap applicator into powder. (Tap off excess, or you will be wasting product and possibly end up with poor application.)
4. Lightly tap powder onto areas of face where you need heavier coverage first. Tap powder on the remainder of your skin where needed. (I don’t suggest covering your entire face with foundation; most women don’t need it, though most prefer a full face of foundation, to spot coverage. Use your best judgment. Foundation should MATCH your skin exactly, if it does not, then it is the wrong color tone, and you will need to find the proper shade.
Gently Tapping is the secret to any of the dry methods of application
5. Once you have lightly tapped powder on desired areas, use a large powder brush blending all powder by swishing and swirling brush over your skin. I like to use light, short, quick whisking motions. Especially take notice of areas around your hairline, chin, and edge of face. With Colour ID Minerals powders your foundation should match your skin and you should not have any telltale lines as with other brands of foundations.
RAESIN IMAGES Colour Identification True Tone System Foundation Mineral Makeup Brand products are all highly pigmented. The powder is very condensed a little goes a long way when applied properly using the above and below methods.
PREFERRED MINERAL MAKEUP APPLICATION Method Dry #2
1. Using the same method as directed above, substitute, flocked sponge, sponge wedge, powder puff. Some women like to use large kabuki and or fan brushes for application.
We like to remind women that our products are not like Id bare escentuals or bareminerals. RAESIN IMAGES Natural Cosmetics Colour ID Minerals Brand Makeup face powder foundations don’t need excessive buffing to apply. Not only is all this buffing unnecessary it can be damaging to your skin if you are using harsh brushes, as each time a harsh bristle (and there can be hundreds of them) touches your delicate skin, it can cause small abrasions for bacteria to enter underlying skin layers causing sensitivity, itching, acne, and skin infection. Please do not use harsh or synthetic brushes when applying your cosmetics except where indicated necessary as in taklon eyeliner brushes.
Apply Mineral Makeup Foundation Wet Method #1
1. Lightly spritz face with purified water or hydrosols after you’ve tapped excess product from brush before you apply product to skin.
2. If you find your product is drying out before you feel you are finished, then lightly spritz again.
3. You can substitute a foundation brush, sponge, or powder brush for your wet application also.
Hydrosols are sold in my skin care section and are nice to carry with you for quick touch ups if needed, as well as their contributing to quenching and nourishing skin with antioxidants.
Apply Mineral Makeup Foundation Wet Method #2
1. Try mixing a few drops of your favorite moisturizer in with your powder, this way you have a light lotion, perfect for on the go days when you feel all you need is a tinted moisturizer.
Apply Mineral Makeup Foundation Wet Method #3
1. Try method #2, substituting water for your moisturizer.
Always clean your foundation application tools DAILY with a gentle (Ivory or Dove) liquid or cake soap and water. Do not use antibacterial soap if you want your brushes to last, this dries out the natural oils in the natural hair brushes.
