Everyday Mineral Overview: Foundation/Concealer/Primer

[janiekendle]

you cannot believe all scientific discovery. Remember when a doctor fraudulently and wrongly claimed that vaccines were linked to autism? This is just one example of many

[Avalita07]

I have Tan skin.....It is a mixture of Tan/Yello/& light brown........can I use the Mint concealer on my skin tone? What is the Mint concealer for anyway? thanks hun xo

[echoli]

@Avalita07 Green counteracts with red. So if you have redness or rosacea, then the mint concealer would be able to conceal those areas.

Excellent video!

THANK YOU for this very intelligent, informative review on EM!! This is the first and only time I have ever left a comment but have felt compelled to do so this time. I have seen so many reviews that were so unorganized, lacking in content, and quite frankly, annoying to watch. You are one smart cookie and I enjoyed this video - look forward to watching your part II on brushes as well. Thumbs UP! :):)

[corrkyme]

I completely agree on the whole paraben, talc issue. There are so many studies showing links between parabens and estrogen alteration in women. What a lot of women don't understand is that the skin is our biggest organ and whatever you put on it is actually being absorbed into our bodies. Thank you so much for at least addresses this issue. Great review!

[03mct]

what would you recommend for a oily/combination/acne prone skin face type:

original glow, semi-matte, matte, or intense formula?

i want the foundation to look natural as well.

[i also heard that one of the formula gives you breakouts. (?) i forget which one though...]

please reply. i look forward to your reply. thanks in advance! =)

[sweetncutehonesty]

hey,

my answer might be helpful.....

i have watched other videos regarding everyday minerals and I have learnt that if you have oily skin, matte and intensive formulas are good, because they don't make you shine..

whereas orginal glow and semi-glow has shine in them....

[03mct]

aww, thanks for replying! =)

[sweetncutehonesty]

you are most welcome !!!!!

[redlipstick678]

matte or intensive

[TinyBarbieDoll]

theres also a book about it called not just a pretty face!i deff checked my makeup out after reading that!it tells you everything

[shakaanita]

I live in Romania, Europe and the shipping was like 5.40 $ for the sample kit. So it's really really cheap!!! I can't wait to get what I ordered! :D

[SongsfromtheEpilogue]

what i do is whenever i get a full size of anything, i get the free sample kit because its really great for travel or for touchups. i love it! and the full sizes are really inexpensive

[violinist21550]

Your EDM vid was really helpful thank you!!!

[iheartsmakeup]

thanks for this review and for recomending light olive and golden medium!! im asian and those are my perfect shades :)

[bfly36]

Hi Echoli, thanx for the review. You say u use Sunlight for after u use the foundation, is that considered "Concealer" or is there a shade called Sunlight for the finishig powders?????

[echoli]

It's a finishing powder, it's called Start to Finish in Sunlight. =)

[LydiaTarine12]

I didn't bother with the foundation descriptions. I just used the colors they showed. Though with the blushes I found the descriptions very helpful. ^-^ And I found two good shades, one which I adore. Unfortunately, either the formula didn't work with me or I need their veil because my forehead area gets odd after a while with this, which I don't have that problem with my PF Mineral Wear Loose Powder.

[echoli]

Seems like a lot ppl prefer PF mineral wear powder than high end brands. But I haven't had a chance to try it out yet. I really like PF products in general. =)

[jackchang69]

in EDM they don't have the PEACH concealer anymore did they stop it or did they change the name?

[echoli]

Go to their website, move your mouse over makeup, and click on Conceal. The peach color corrector is under the Spot On category.

[selene6673]

When do you think a girl should start wearing mineral makeup?

[echoli]

Maybe around 18 and up? Personally, I think girls younger than 18 should really embrace their natural skin. =) But you can start using it anytime!!!

[selene6673]

Ohhhh, ok I see thanks. Another question, cause I've read that mineral makeup will improve your face's texture and diminish blemishes. Is that true?

[echoli]

Some mineral makeup contain many nutrients that would protect the skin and heal blemishes (e.g. jojoba oil, kaolin clay, etc) But not all mineral makeup can improve your skin. So you really need to look out for yourself. =)

[selene6673]

Ohhh, I see thank you for the advice.

[rebexterz]

i'm 16 and i wear everyday minerals :)

haha my natural skin is uneven already and i have acne. so i need it. i think that if your around my age, maybe get the free sample kit? it's free and you can cover up some uneven-ness if you need it :)

[vikkiywu]

Hi~ What do you use for a summer/slightly darker shade if you use the light olive and golden medium as your regular/winter shade in EDM?

[echoli]

I use Olive Medium, it's a bit more tan than light olive. =)

[90938]

hi=)

what shade wld u recommend for me as i'm MAC NC25.

thx!

[echoli]

I would recommend you to try Golden Medium. =)

[90938]

thx=)

As for the finishing powder, do u know what's e difference between start to finish/finishin dust/natural reflection?

[MadMadamJess]

The Start To Finish powder is specially formulated to control oil, it's got Kaolin Clay in it which really does the trick. I would say this is my favorite out of the three. Finishing Dust has corn starch in it and imparts a finish to your skin similar to the Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil..super sheer and has SOME oil control properties. The Natural Reflections is not formulated to control oil at all but has a great SPF of 30 and imparts a lovely glowing finish to your make up.

luv,

jessie

[90938]

wow... thx alot=)

u've totally cleared my doubts

[MadMadamJess]

anytime!

xoxoxo

luv,

jessie

Hi again my friend. Sorry if i said friend :)

I cant explain how much i am happy for Everyday minerals!!! I ordered the 12 pc. kit and i was thinking it is going to take a wile until i get it.But its came today....just 4 days. Wow you should see my face when i got it. My bf was thinking that i won lottery :)

So i got my kit. And must say it is match perfect. I have very light skin ans always i have this problem with matching colors. This one was pretty easy.

So i suggest to everybody try it!!!

[Jinnyloveredstuff]

I use everyday mineral too. and I love it. My foundation color is light olive too. I also use light neutral which it looks exactly the same like light olive on my face. I looked at a few of your videos, and you are covering everything in great details which is very helpful to me. Thanks!

[malush181]

Hi . Thank you a lot for suggesting this make up. I have tried and i am so happy. It is really match to my face from first time. Great!!!! You are great!!!!

[echoli]
