Even though I don’t have any allergies (none that I know of anyway), I still like to pay close attention to the ingredients in my makeup. It really scares me when the ingredient list is so long that it’s like I’m reading a novella.

That’s why Everyday Minerals wins major points in my books. Not only that, their blushes are very pigmented, so I couldn’t wait to try their eye shadows! Especially since I got the Everyday Minerals Smokey Pink Eyeshadow Rollerball. I thought that feature is fun and conveniently, but I wasn’t expecting it to work too well. Continue reading →

Blush? I never thought I needed it. Until… My parents kept asking me if I was sick every time they saw me because I looked pale and had no healthy coloring. (Thanks, Mom. Thanks, Dad.) Needless to say, that was when I started looking into blushes.

Which is why I was so excited when I got the Everyday Minerals SoCo Blush! It was created to “celebrate the gorgeous women of Austin.” But no worries. You don’t have to live there to enjoy this shade. It has a femininely pink tone to it, but it’s not girly at all – I think women of all ages (living anywhere) can pull off this color.

Many blushes contain Bismuth Oxychloride, a known allergen. If you’re allergic to it like I am, you may have given up finding one that doesn’t irritate your skin. Forget about blush from NARS, MAC, and many drugstore brands.

Enter Everyday Minerals. Their products are natural and don’t have Bismuth Oxychloride or fillers. And the wide range of colors and finishes of their blush selection will blow you away. Then look at the price – talk about great value! (And shipping is very reasonable even if you’re shipping to Canada.)

Today I’m reviewing the Everyday Minerals Like Lady Bird Lake blush. It’s very different from the blush colors I usually gravitate toward, but y’know what? It flattered my NC20 skin. Continue reading →

Blush is a fast way to give your complexion a little (or big) boost. It wakes up your face and makes you look like the picture of health. And the best part? It takes under 8 seconds to apply, and you’re out the door.

Everyday Minerals Blush is hands down my favorite blush ever. Why? It contains very few ingredients (which means no extra chemicals and fillers), comes in a wide variety of colors and finishes, and doesn’t contain Bismuth Oxychloride (which I’m allergic to in face and eye products).

Until last year, foundation just wasn’t my thing. Liquid foundations felt too heavy like I was wearing a disgusting mask all day. And I wasn’t a fan of tinted moisturizers because of the major color transfer.

Mineral makeup has become more popular over the years for actually being good for your skin, so I thought I’d give it a go. Ever since I tried it, I’ve been using it daily, and it’s been treating my sensitive, acne-prone skin very well!

Find out why the Everyday Minerals Intensive Formula made a believer out of me. Continue reading →
