I remember the very first PR samples I received while writing for Dolce Vanity was mineral makeup but I've not dabbled much in mineral make-up since. It can be touch and go for me, as base wise, I'm not keen on mineral make-up but that's preference but I don't mind other items such as blush and eyeshadow. What caught my eye more so about Bohemian Chic Minerals is that it is vegan & works for sensitive skin, with a minimal ingredient list, no additives, no alcohol, no chemicals and no animal ingredients. Here are the 6 items that I've received:
Mineral Blush - Sugar & Spice (satin finish 6g £10.00) is an apricot shade that for me works well with a my skin tone and deeper. It doesn't stand out on the skin in a garish way. I actually found that it could work well as a light bronzer for me.
Mineral Eyeshadow Celebration & Goldust (soft velvet finish 2g £11.00 each)
Celebration, a chartreuse shade, I didn't think I'd like it but it's a interesting colour that has a nice sheen to it
Goldust, especially on darker skin tones, it just pops out, it gleams & looks rich. It's a beautiful shade, on me I was a little disappointed.
Pink Pearl (glitter finish 2g £11.00) probably the one I was least happy about. It's quite sheer and I'm not fond of these colours being sheer, I like them to be very pigmented and bright.
Mineral Brow - Mocha & Rustic (1g £5.60 each) I don't really use powder to do my brows anymore, I haven't for a few years but I think they make good eyeliners to smudge along the lash line for a softer look. I especially like doing that when I do my eyes with a lot of orange & reds, think Urban Decay Heat palette.
Have you used mineral makeup?
