Affordable Mineral Makeup is great.
Mineral makeup is the most natural form of makeup available. They are crushed minerals from the earth that have been through a purification process to insure highest quality and blended into various beautiful shades. Mineral makeup has been around for thousands of years, used even by the early Egyptians as makeup. Mineral makeup powders range from being matte to highly lustrous.
Affordable Mineral makeup contain no dyes, irritants, preservatives, waxes, mineral or petroleum oil, or fillers. The powders are loose and buff easily into the skin.

It is very easy to apply, gives you a natural sunscreen, fabulous coverage, and is long-lasting.

Applying Affordable Mineral Makeup:
Always start with clean, dry skin. Make sure to exfoliate at least twice a month to reveal beautiful skin and have the minerals adhere better.

Place the bristles of your Kabuki brush against the holes in the top of the shaker jar and invert the jar, adding minerals to your brush. Revert the jar to its upright position and remove the brush from the holes, tap the brush against a hard surface to nestle the minerals within the brush head. Or tap a small amount of minerals into the jar’s lid and swirl the brush into it, then tap the end of the brush onto the hard surface to embed the minerals.


To apply the minerals, start at the hairline and swirl onto your face in a circular, buffing sweep over your cheekbones and towards the nose. Start with a little and use more as needed, a little goes a long way so don’t go nutty with the minerals right out of the gate.

Blemishes are a snap to hide, using a shading brush, apply a small amount directly to the area and blend well.

I am a Sephora nut!!! My
I noticed a lot of other people put down MAC makeup which is great if you are just using it for eyeshadows and lipstick, but do not use it as a face base.
For foundations: I would suggest Rimmel if you have a tight budget, Prescriptives is excellent because they will mix your perfect shade and if you can splurge Chanel is incredible.
For powders: Rimmel again is great, Nars, BareMinerals Mineral Veil, and Sally Hansen are all lovely options
Nars has the best blush period (anything they make is always top quality-I have almost all their makeup)
The new store brand Telescopic Mascara is so my new favorite
Benefit Boing is my favorite concealer
Too-Faced has really fun palettes and the best brushes on the market
Aura Science has really cool lipgloss

Have fun!

I also recommend Bare Minerals. I never used to wear makeup before, I didn't know how to apply it and I hated the extra time it took. But Bare Minerals is SOOOOO easy and it always looks good, and it literally takes less than 5 minutes. And sometimes I "forget" or get lazy and don't wash it off and I don't break out in the morning. I have seen an overall improvement is texture and moisture. Also, when i work out, it doesn't streak and run off at all, even after an hour on the eliptical. Good luck!

I would say try out Avon. It's not at all expensive and they have plenty of products to choose from. The best procedure for applying your makeup would be: Making sure your face is thoroughly clean, moisturize it really good and let the moisturizer soak in your skin first. Then, use a makeup sponge for applying your liquid foundation. And for powdered foundation (Bare Minerals etc...) circular strokes are always best.

most brands are good, i mean, i have no favorites. but dont use obviously crappy stuff. try to throw out all makeup after a while since bacteria can build up.
im so not into the whole fake up look. so if your not for makeup or aren't comfortable in it, than fugettaboutit. :)
but i think of makeup like an art, which is, as a form of self expression.

MAC cosmetics is a good makeup brand. Fabulous colors and shades of lipsticks, eyeshadows etc. You could probably find MAC at a Macy's store and MAC also has a store of its own. The people at MAC would be able to help what shades are right for you and how to wear the makeup also.

I doubt the paper bag seem receives you the pastime. in case you do not in many cases placed on any makeup, and do not want to bypass all-out made-up, i might want to recommend somewhat concealer on any "difficulty" aspects, basic dusting of face powder, some undemanding brown/taupe impartial eyeshadow, perhaps some chocolate brown eyeliner on the proper lids in user-friendly words and end off with a coat of black mascara. For lips, you would possibly want to probable smash out with some sparkling gloss. that is a sturdy prevalent basic makeup seem.

well mabeline is pretty good but if you can afford try bare minerals.its really good makeup,they show a lot of commercials on TV.but apply a even amount to your face but first make sure you find your right color for your skin type,then rub it in and make sure you don't have a makeup line,like under your chin and lower cheek area.maybe try a light blush and put it on your cheek bones.
