Are you new to mineral cosmetics and not sure how to use them? Then you’ve come to the right place. This article will give you a step-by-step breakdown of how to create a complete face with mineral face power from foundation to bronzer.
To begin, collect all the tools you’ll need to apply mineral makeup, including foundation, mineral veil, blush, warming color or bronzer, concealer brush, all-purpose brush, and kabuki or flat top brush. Take the time to cleanse your face and prepare your skin if you haven’t already.
Now, get to work.
#1. Start by concealing.
Begin by squeezing a tiny amount of foundation into the lid. Simply shake all foundations into one lid if you have more than one foundation to obtain the right tone for your skin. It will be simpler to combine and clean up.
On the places where you need a bit more coverage, use the concealer brush. Apply the mineral foundation beneath and around your eyes, on blemishes and dark patches, and around your nose’s base (where your nostrils are). To get a more uniform finish, use smooth and even strokes with the concealer brush.
#2. Put on the foundation.
If you need an extra mineral powder foundation on the lid, go ahead and apply it. Use the all-purpose brush to swirl the foundation, then tap away from the excess before applying it to your face, just as you did with the concealer brush. Start applying the mineral makeup on the outer jaw area of your face with a swirling motion after the minerals are on the brush.
Try using a kabuki brush if you want greater coverage. Swirl it in the foundation as you would the other brushes, tap out the excess, then rub it into your skin softly. Begin at the tip of your nose and work your way outwards.
#3. Apply blush to your cheeks.
If you’re going to apply blush, start with the all-purpose brush. Dip the brush in the mineral powder on the lid, spin it around a little, then blot out any excess.
Next, apply the brush to the region of your cheek where the center of your eye is. This is where the apples of your cheeks are. To double-check, grin gently and look at which part of your cheek rises and outwards.
#4. Apply a bronzer or a warming color to your face.
You’ll apply a warming color or bronzer in the same way. You’ll use the same all-purpose brush you used for the blush. To start, wipe the brush clean with a dry cloth or paper towel.
After that, gently dip the brush into the powder, swirl it around a little, and tap off any excess. Apply the color gently over your cheekbones and across your temples, as well as down the middle of your nose, on your chin, over your forehead (if you don’t have bangs), and on your ears. Finally, softly stroke the brush downward from your jaw down your neck to get a more natural appearance.
#5. Use a finishing veil to complete the look.
The finishing veil powder is the last stage in mineral makeup. Some companies provide a mineral loose powder version, while others offer a pressed version. Both are equally effective, so the decision is yours.
Finishing veil powder may be used to any area of your face to complete your mineral face power makeup look. Begin by brushing a gentle hand over your nose, cheeks, chin, and forehead. Close your eyes and gently brush it over your lids to finish. If you’re using a loose finishing veil, shake a tiny bit onto the lid, then swirl the all-purpose brush in the powder before tapping out the excess.
The Final Look
After you’ve finished your makeup, all you have to do now is apply your mascara and lip gloss, and you’re ready to go. You may add makeup if you like, but use a neutral eyeshadow if you want to go for a more natural appearance. That’s it.
