HOW TO APPLY MINERAL FOUNDATION
Take your time when working with minerals. It takes a little time to find an application method that works great for you.
Dry Method 1. With lid on, softly tap or shake product upside down into lid.
2. Using your brush, gently press the brush head into powder. (Tap off excess, or you will be wasting product and possibly end up with poor application.)
4. Start buffing powder onto your skin in a circular motion. Repeat this process until you have the coverage you like.
Wet Method 1. Lightly spritz face with purified water or mineral mist after you've tapped excess product from brush before you apply product to skin. Or spray some water or mist into an empty container and shake some of the mineral powders onto that. Mix thoroughly and apply with a brush or sponge. If you find your product is drying out before you feel you are finished, then lightly spritz again.
Wet Method 2. Try mixing a few drops of your favorite moisturizer in with your powder. If you want a thin coverage like a liquid makeup use less powder. If you want a thick foundation like a pan makeup then add more powder to the moisturizer, the more powder you add the thicker the foundation. This method can be applied with a contour brush for great coverage.
MINERAL VEIL OR SETTING POWDER
Apply the mineral veil over your foundation for a finished look. Mineral veils are also used as correctors. Use the Yellow on red areas to correct the red or the Pink veil to add warmth to your complexion. Mineral veil is applied the same as the foundation only lighter.
MINERAL BLUSH
Use the blush SPARINGLY to contour the cheek. Barely dab the blush brush tip into the sifter jar and tap off the excess before applying.
Multi-Purpose Mineral Pigments (Eye Shadow)Use any color from multi-purpose mineral collection for eye shadow, blush, liquid eyeliner, nail polish, lipstick or body shimmer. NOTE: The blues and greens are not to be used on the lips. Eye Shadow: Simply dip an eye shadow brush into the desired color and apply to your eyelids. Choose a lighter color as a highlighter to apply under the brow. Use a darker color in the crease as a shader.Apply dry for a lighter color and apply wet for a darker dramatic color.
Liquid Eyeliner: Wet your Line It brush with water, dip into the desired color of mineral powder. Mix water and powder together on the back of your hand or in separate container until well blended. Apply close to lashes. Nail Polish: Use any nail polish. Dip your nail polish brush into the mineral powder of your choice. Apply to nails. For darker color, use more powder.
Lip Color: Dip your lip brush into your favorite lip balm/stick/gloss and then into the mineral powder of your choice. Blend well and then apply to lips.

Beauty Tips To Help Along The Way.
To Prevent Hair Color Fading
Washing your hair with cold water is the best way to keep your hair color from fading. Use color enhancing shampoo and conditioner to extend the life of your color. For Reds and Browns use products that add a little color with each shampoo. Shampoo and condition daily with warm water instead of hot. Shampoo roots only and let shampoo rinse through to ends to prevent fading and drying out. To complete shower with hot water, twist shampooed hair in clip and protect with shower cap.
Remove Excess Hair Oils
Wear your hairstyles longer in between shampoos. During this time natural oils tend to make hair look greasy. To absorb oils dust hair with baby powder. Apply powder to hands and clap over oily areas.
Eliminate Fizz and Fly Away Hair
To achieve the softest, silkiest hair and to eliminate frizz and fly away hair use Olive oil and Baby oil. These oils hydrate, condition and add shine to dry damaged hair. Olive oil will help to coat the hair and loosen curl for easy blow outs. If to much oil is used hair will get oily, use baby powder tip to reduce oil.
Reducing Hair Tangles
To reduce tangles in long hair, comb out hair in shower while conditioning using a wide tooth comb. This is also good for damaged and fragile dry hair to prevent breakage. Remember to braid long hair at bedtime to prevent knots.
Miscellaneous Tips
Remove excess lipstick that ends up on your teeth. Insert finger into mouth close lips around finger and pull out. You will have all that lipstick on your finger instead of your teeth, which is never a good look.
To add length and texture to your eyelashes use loose fiber. You can find mascara that already has fiber in it, but for bold lashes apply extra fiber to lasher. Apply a layer of mascara then a layer of fiber repeat if desired.
For a dramatic look with your eye shadow, wet you shadow brush then apply shadow to brush. Eye shadow will go on thicker and darker.
Everyone loves a tan. To use you self tanner exfoliate full area then apply your favorite moisturizer then apply tanner. This will help blend tanner. To remove excess tanner from small areas use Q-Tip with 20 volume developer for hair color.
If reaction occurs when wearing earrings of certain metals, dip earring posts into Vaseline. This will coat the piercing hole and earring metals will not touch or affect your ears anymore.
If the glass on your watch face has a scratch, paint it with clear nail polish. Clear nail polish will fill in scratch and blend it away.
