I love mineral makeup. I've been using it for a while now, it took me a while to really catch on to the mineral craze. I would say I use mineral makeup 50 percent of the time. I like mineral makeup becaue it creates a much more natural, even look to my skin and eyes, without creating smudge or shine. I usually wear it during the day,and bust out with the foundation look later on at night. Everyday Minerals has a wide variety of colors for your cheeks,face, eyes and lips.

The Rhapsody in Peach Blush (On special for $3.99) is a natural flush for your cheeks and 100% pigmented. This is a coral color that contains "mica", which is their key blush ingredient. Mica is a mineral that is noted for it's transparent sparkly luster. This is an extremely pigmented blush, with tons, i mean TONS of sparkle. If you like a cheek color that doesn't sparkle, this will not be for you. Lucky for me, the more glitter the better so I love this one. And for $3.99 this is a steal. The color is gorgeous, and because it's so neutral I think it could be used for a bronzer along your jawline and hairline along with the cheeks because it's not such a harsh pink. This is .19 oz so you're getting a lot of color, this will probably last me a year because of the size.
Usually I hate sample sizes, but because Everyday Minerals carries such a variety of different colors, I like that they sell sample sizes, so you don't waste your money on the wrong color. Each sample contains 1 gram of product and will give you about 5-7 applications. Because the Everyday Minerals website can be mind boggling with all the different items and colors, they have made it easy for you by selling $5 Base Sample Kits. Each kit includes 5 jars, ($1 each!) of 4 different formulas in your choice of shade.
My only problem with these samples is trying to get them open! Once they are open, they are fabulous because they won't spill and they aren't loose, instead they have the small three holes which allow for you to only take out what you use. But I can never open them, so I just take a needle and poke holes through the plastic, which is a bit of a pain. After trying a couple of the base colors I think it's safe to say I'm "Olive Fair" color. Once you find your perfect color, you can purchase a full tub for $12, which is still great for mineral makeup. And when I compare it to my super expensive foundation, this is a bargain!

My favorite part of the haul is the Honey Eye Palette ($4.00) And yes I said $4.00!
Juniper- This copper sheen, silver sparkly brown shade makes it perfect for the crease
Queen Anne's Lace – Apply a small amount of this pearl champagne beige shade to your brow bone and
inner corner of your eye.
Mrs. Coffee – To finish your look add a small amount of your liner to the outer rim of your eyelid.
I love the little lids, just stick your brush in the color and you're good to go!
Everyday Minerals is having a huge holiday sale, so make sure you visit their site. Over 45 colors at year end prices! If you're not sure of your color, buy the sample sets, they are great for people who don't know what shade to pick. Overall, Everyday Minerals is still ranked in my top 3 favorite mineral makeup companies. I highly recommend them for both old and new mineral lovers!
