Blush -Everyday Minerals - Apple
rated 3 of 5

This blush is a pretty soft medium pink, I only gave it 3 simply because I don't care for matte blushes very much. I LOVE EM's blushes in their shimmer versions though! This is a nice blush, which I will use when I'm in the mood for a natural looking matte color.

This blush is gorgeous! It's a medium, very soft, pink shade with just a touch of peach and of course, some sparkle! This is a classy sparkling blush shade, perfect for a day at the office, or a night out on the town! Great summer color too!

This is my FAVORITE blush, and although I have many of EM's blushes, this is the one I reach for the most! It is absolutely gorgeous, a medium peachy coral with tons of gold shimmer! This will make you sparkle and look so glam! Best blush in the world!!!

Blush -Everyday Minerals - blush all
rated 5 of 5
Goldie_Loks 1/14/2008 5:01:00 PM

I have to say "ditto" to the previous reviewer...I have tried like 10 of their blushes, and fell in love with them all!!! My fav's are Chit Chat, Girl's Day, Theme Park, Corner Office, and B&B. These are all sparkly shades, and they are the most gorgeous blushes I have ever found, and believe me I've tried A LOT of brands! They make me look so perfectly polished and radiant! They go on perfectly, not too dark, not too light, so no worries about streaks or splotches! I wish I could buy them all!!! With such generous sample sizes, what are you waiting for??!!

Concealers -Everyday Minerals - Intensive Fair concealer [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
Goldie_Loks 1/14/2008 4:57:00 PM

I love this stuff, it covers even the most red blemishes, and blends them right in with your foundation shade. The finish is perfect, and it lasts all day! Also great for covering dark under-eye circles, without over-drying the sensitive eye area! It's perfect, just like their foundations!!!

Powder -Everyday Minerals - Foundation - Intensive formula [DISCONTINUED]
rated 5 of 5
Goldie_Loks 1/14/2008 4:50:00 PM

So I was REALLY torn between EM's Intensive and Matte foundations. I use the shade "Golden Fair", which is great if your skin tone is between the fair and light shades. It's not very yellow, like you'd expect, it's perfect for my light neutral skin. I have decided to use the Intensive during the winter, and the Matte during the summer, this way I don't have to choose between them :-) The Intensive is almost matte anyway, but provides a little more full coverage. It covers the most stubborn redness, and gives you a flawless finish. The finish on both the Intensive and Matte are beautiful actually, and the they both help keep the oilies away!

Loose Powders -Everyday Minerals - Silk Dust (Untinted ) [DISCONTINUED]
rated 2 of 5
Goldie_Loks 1/14/2008 4:45:00 PM

I have very oily skin, and always need a finishing powder even over EM's Matte foundation (which is fabulous!). So I tried the Silk Powder, and Tinted Silk Powder, and while I loved the finish of the untinted Silk Powder, it was breaking me out daily!!! I don't understand that, it's supposed to be so great for your skin, but mine unfortunately mine didn't like it! So, I was hesitant to try the Finishing Dust, because it contains Corn Starch, which is supposed to cause breakouts. I break out easily too, but not only is my skin not breaking out, (like from the Silk Powder), it absorbs oil soooo much better than the silk powder as well. BTW I LOVE EVERDAY MINERALS!!!

Skincare - Face -Zapzyt - Acne Pack 3 Step System
rated 2 of 5
Goldie_Loks 12/31/2007 2:57:00 PM

This product smell bad, and peels the skin right off your face. I tried to stick with it and give it a chance to get past the dry-out-peel phase, but my skin couldn't handle it anymore. AND it didn't do much for clearing it up either. I gave this a 2, only because it's not as harsh as some treatments out there. I am now using the Clean and Clear kit, and am much happier with the results!

Skincare - Face -Clean & Clear - Advantage Acne Control Kit
rated 5 of 5
Goldie_Loks 12/31/2007 2:53:00 PM

I was a faithful Proactiv user for many years, and then it stopped working for me so I began my search for a new acne control system. I have to say I'm in love with the Clean & Clear kit, not only does it leave your skin feeling clean and smooth, it does clear your skin, without causing your skin to peel, like a lot of kits do. I love the moisturizer especially, it smells so freakin sweet (like sweet tarts), I love putting it on my face! The kit works really well, it's not harsh on the skin, my skin is clearer than ever! Definitely, what I'll be using from now on! UPDATE: Well I stupidly tried to switch facial care lines (twice), and broke out again, until I went back to this kit. This kit truly does provide life changing results on my face..I'll die if they ever stop making it!!!

Powder -Everyday Minerals - Foundation Matte Formula
rated 5 of 5
Goldie_Loks 12/9/2007 3:56:00 PM

I have sampled probably 20 different mineral makeup companies..and EM is the one I'm going to stick with. So I was REALLY torn between EM's Intensive and Matte foundations. I have decided to use the Intensive during the winter, and the Matte during the summer, this way I don't have to choose between them :-) The Intensive is almost matte anyway, but provides a little more full coverage. It covers the most stubborn redness, and gives you a flawless finish. The finish on both the Intensive and Matte are beautiful actually, and the they both help keep the oilies away! Amazingly, I chose the exact perfect shade my first try. I don't WANT to have to mix two colors together, I love that EM has so many shades and tones to choose from. The foundation ingredients are the best for your skin, no "bad" mineral ingredients found here! LOVE THIS COMPANY!

Powder -Makeup Artist's Choice (MUAC) - Kathleen Mineral Makeup Rice Powder
rated 5 of 5
Goldie_Loks 12/6/2007 9:39:00 PM

Best product for shine control over ANY mineral foundation. I use the rice powder in "light" and it is totally translucent. It absorbs oil and gives a nice matte finish without putting a bunch of ingredients on your face. Better than any finishing powders I have tried from any other mineral cosmetic lines. Won't cause breakouts like Cornstarch finishing powders,and won't alter foundation color. Does not cake up, even with repeated applications throughout the day. I just ordered 2 more jars, b/c I love this and never want to run out!

Foundations -Unlisted Brand - Sheer Miracle-Mineral Foundation
rated 5 of 5
Goldie_Loks 12/3/2007 12:53:00 AM

I was apprehensive about trying this foundation...only b/c MY MOM was the one who told me about it, since this is the foundation she uses (I'm sorry I doubted you Mom!). Sheer Miracle loose mineral foundation provides the best coverage of the mineral foundations I have tried (and I have tried many ie. BE, Youngblood, Signature, Jane Iredale, Physicians Formula, Loreal, Sheer Cover) just to name a few! Sheer Miracle's foundation is wonderfully matte (I hate shiny mineral makeup!), provides the best full coverage, and the colors stay true all day! While it is matte, it looks creamy once applied, not chalky, it does not dry out your skin or make it appear flat, but radiant and flawless! A little really does go a long way in this brand. The foundation is around $18.50 for 10gm in a 30gm jar, which isn't the cheapest I have found, but there is a Sheer Miracle eBay store, and you can usually buy it there for around $9.99 (that's more like it)! You can also buy samples, which is always nice. Although their foundation color range is limited, their shades are very forgiving, so even if the color isn't a perfect match, you can't tell at all once it's applied. Best of all are it's totally minimalist ingredients: mica, titanium dioxide, iron oxides, (+-ultramarine blue). So bottom line, it's good for your face, and it makes your face look good!
