Re: Creams and Pressed products

They come in tubes like a lip product. We have cream products, but not pressed. The blushes/bronzers come in a smaller tube than the foundation. Foundation is 12 grams. (It was on the pictures that have the packaging.) The blushes come in the sme size as our solid lip products. Probably less than ha...

Re: Mineral makeup contains SPF?

All we can really say is there may be some. Generally, assume it is very low to none. We can't legally claim there is an spf, or give a ballpark number. It changes the way the product has to be classified. SPF has to be tested in a lab, and the product is considered a drug. And that leads to all kin...

I'm getting uneven marks and can I apply my body cream at what time after I apply the self tanner? TIA :) I sent an email. I still have no answer yet...

Re: Need Foundation Help? Please post here.......

JenW, thank you! This might be a silly question but I’m new at this so I’ll ask. You mentioned that I should try a warm gold but might need a buttery gold instead. How will I know? What should I look for (maybe too yellow or too dark or something like that)? Thank you! It is a good question! You wi...

NSmith-

Beautiful pic! You look wonderfully happy!

And now for color, I am leaning warm gold. 1 color to about 10 white. It is possible that Buttery Gold might be better, so I do recommend a sample kit.

Re: Zinc powder

I'd love to see a good video tutorial on how to do all that, Jen. Do you know of any? I don't know of any tutorials, unfortunately. The way I know is trial and error. And my too dark error just had to be mixed with more zinc. What you want is the lowest number of color scoops in order that the zinc...

Re: Foundation color question.

You are probably going to fall in the first 3 shades of Cool HD foundation. Since you are comparing to commercial products, I would guess 20 or 30. I am leaning toward 30, as our fairest shade is fairer than most. Probably within the first 2 shades of the concealer shade you want. Peach HD for under...

Re: What to wear with Quartzite?

Bare is peachier/pinker than Boom. At least from what I recall. And they are a similar depth.

Re: What to wear with Quartzite?

I could not find my Vanilla. Boom and Quartize are kind of close, but Boom is slightly less depth, and slightly more pink. Goddess is very close to Adorn. It is less pink than Adorn and no blue shift. Cream is a nice neutral highlight. I am sure it has less yellow than Vanilla. And Oh So Versatile! ...
