  • Keeping Your Mineral Foundation looking Dewy not Matte

    Posted on November 22nd, 2011 tracy No comments

    Foundations that are matte liquid, or mineral-based, can erase your youthful glow and that beautiful dewy look.

    If you are using any foundation that has too much matte, it will accentuate facial dryness. As we age we tend to lose hydration, which leads to dullness of skin tone, and causes our face to look dry, tight and more wrinkled. In order to appear more youthful it is essential to make sure that the face looks hydrated, glowing and plump. As always, proper skincare is vital for younger looking skin. Oils can help create that perfect canvas for your foundation.

    Mineral Powder Foundations can look beautiful and glowing on the face. As I stated above, you must start with proper skincare, and you must exfoliate so your canvas is in perfect shape to begin your mineral application. In all honesty, I have tried numerous mineral foundations and the only one that has worked well is the one we carry. I’m sure there are other great ones out there, but I just haven’t come across them yet.

    Also, if you desire that youthful dewy look, applying a facial mister is a must! If your skin looks dry after you apply your minerals foundation, spritz a little of our Herbal Tonique or Vit C Ester onto your face and it will radiate beauty. The facial mister causes your minerals to look dewy and not matte, which is what you should aim for to have that youthful glow.

    Liquid Minerals are another beautiful foundation if you desire that youthful glow. Personally I love the tinted mineral moisturizer as it goes on easily.

    It is important to avoid being overzealous with the minerals in those danger zones which we have, such as the outer corners of eye area, tops of the cheekbones, the upper lip line, and the smile lines next to the mouth.

  • How to Apply Concealer

    Posted on September 30th, 2011 tracy No comments

    HI Ladies,

    All Natural Mineral Concealer

    All Natural Mineral Concealer

    For those looking for the perfect concealer to cover those annoying problem areas, such as the dark circles under the eye, keep reading for a great tip!

    Using the proper color of concealer and having the right placement is vital to achieving the right look, and hopefully do away with those dark spots. Women with caucasian coloring need a concealer that is no more than one shade lighter than the rest of their face. It should also have a hue of either salmon, melon, and/or pink to counteract the dark circles, which most of us have on those oh so tired days.

    Interestingly, most ladies get the placement of concealer totally wrong. More times than not, concealer is not needed on the outer third of the eye. When concealer is applied there it will only enhance the crow’s feet which most of us do not want highlighted! Only apply concealer wherever there is darkness.

    Here is the best rule of thumb. Think of the shape of a comma. Apply from the inner corner of the eye and extend the concealer to where you can feel your ocular bone. If you follow this tip, you will have the perfect look!

    Make it a Beautiful Day,

  • Eye Colors for Spring

    Posted on May 16th, 2011 tracy No comments

    If you’re a rookie when it comes to colorful eye makeup, remember that choosing a contrasting shadow can really make your eyes pop.

    For example, since orange and blue are complementary colors, coral shades will really bring out your baby blues. The same goes for purple hues if you have green eyes, or blue shades if you have brown eyes.

    Green is the color of spring – not just in gardens, but on eye lids this season. Green eye shadow is to eyes what coral gloss is to lips. )

    And another bonus? It looks amazing on brown eyes.

    We are adding more amazing mineral eyeshadows hopefully within a month or so. Keep checking back with us at Nature’s Genesis

    Have an amazing joy-filled day

    The All Natural Beauty Enthusiast!

    Sorry this has taken so long to get back with you. Things have been crazy, busy around here like they are with most of us, so I’m going to keep this short and sweet.

    As far as the new eye cream goes, we’re not going to be carrying this product. It is not preforming to our standards that we have here at Nature’s Genesis. The eye treatment  seems to accent the wrinkles and dry out the eye area drastically. Since this is the case, we will not be offering this to our customers. Sorry, we  were really hoping it would work.

  • A New Makeup Line that We’re Extremely Excited to Share with You

    Posted on November 4th, 2009 tracy No comments

    We here at Nature’s Genesis picked up a new makeup line that we’re extremely excited to share with you, Rejuva Minerals. This company has been listed as one of the top eight safe cosmetic brands in the U.S. in 2009.  I’ve never used a mineral foundation that worked so well as this line does. Trust me I’ve tried just about all of them and nothing, and I mean nothing worked. The other brands would accent every line, every pore and every wrinkle and were very hard to apply.  Needless to say, I’ve been on the search for a pure mineral  line that would really deliver. Well, I found one that does what it says. Better yet, it’s pure and doesn’t contain all those nasty chemicals.

    In fact, I was amazed the first time I tried this, it glides on beautifully. It requires no more time then if you were applying a liquid foundation. Before with the other mineral lines, it took me forever to apply and try to make it look good. It never did happen. Anyway, this  was easy to apply and it didn’t sink into every inperfection. You don’t have that caked on feel or look that sometimes comes with using a  mineral foundation. Your skin looks beautiful, fresh and natural. If you’d like to give a mineral foundation another shot, you won’t be disappointed with this makeup line.

    Personally, all I use is the Rejuva Minerals line except for a lash conditioner and a lip liner. I’m hoping they will offer these in the near future. Their mineral eyeshadows are infused with the powerful antioxidant Vitamin C and other all natural, organic ingredients. You can chose from a vast array of colors from striking bold colors to muted blends for a more natural radiant look.  I’ve listed the ingredients below so you can see for yourself how natural this really is. Again, it would be interesting if you compared your eyeshadow to this brand! You might be surprised.

    Midnight Blue

    Kaolinite (White Cosmetic Clay)
    Boron Nitride (mineral)
    Eco Certified Organic Oryza Sativa (Rice) Powder
    Iron Oxides (mineral pigment)
    L-ASCORBIC ACID (Vitamin C)
    Ultramarine Blue (pigment)

    I’ll be writing more on this next week and also sharing a few testimonies with you.

    Until next time,

    Tracy
