How long after skincare should I apply makeup?

You only need to wait a minute or two for your skincare to fully absorb before applying your mineral makeup. To check if your moisturizer and SPF have fully dried down, use your fingertips to feel for any tackiness. If you use a thick cream, you may need to wait a little longer.

What is mineral makeup?

Mineral makeup is made up of finely ground natural minerals like zinc oxide, iron oxide, and titanium dioxide. Because mineral makeup isn’t formulated like other types of cosmetics (AKA it doesn’t contain preservatives, fragrances, or synthetic dyes), it’s considered better for makeup for sensitive skin.

What is mineral powder makeup?

Mineral powder makeup is made up of finely ground natural minerals resulting in an all-natural, clean makeup alternative that’s suitable for all skin types. Our mineral powder makeup is talc free, derm-approved, and non-comedogenic.

How to apply mineral blush?

We suggest applying our powder mineral blush with an angled blush brush to the apples of your cheeks or by dabbing and diffusing the liquid mineral blush with your fingertips.

How to apply mineral bronzer?

We suggest applying our loose mineral bronzer with our Seamless Shaping & Finish Brush. Start by tapping a small amount of powder into the lid. Using our swirl, tap, buff method, simply swirl the brush into the lid, tap off any excess, then buff the bronzer directly onto the skin. We suggest focusing on the forehead, hairline, cheeks, and bridge of your nose.

How to apply mineral pressed foundation?

Our mineral pressed foundation is unique in its ability to be applied either wet or dry. If you have skin that leans more oily, we suggest applying it straight to the face with the included sponge. If you have drier skin, soak the sponge under water until it expands then squeeze out the extra liquid before dipping into the product and applying to the face.

Make the Switch to Mineral Powder Makeup

Our derm-approved skin-enhancing mineral powder makeup is suitable for all skin types and comes in a wide range of shades. Plus, it doesn’t stop at pressed mineral foundation. You can switch to mineral primer, mineral blush, mineral bronzer and so much more. Find your favorites at bareMinerals today.

Mineral Makeup FAQs

Mineral Makup Info

We’ve made it our mission to create clean mineral makeup that works to improve your skin overtime. Back in 2008, the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology found mineral makeup improved skin clarity and skin softness, along with reducing fine lines, evening skin tone, and controlling shine. That’s why we can guarantee our mineral makeup is more than just makeup, it’s skincare.
