Skin quality reveals the status of your health

Lots of people would like to use mineral foundation. However, liquid
foundation provides coverage that they fear that they will have to
give up. They are not aware that you can use mineral foundation wet or
dry. Both methods can yield many of the same positive results. It is
important to understand how to use mineral foundation wet and dry.
This will help you get the best results for any skin condition on any
day.

You will use the special horsehair brush that came with your makeup to
apply your mineral foundation. Use this brush whether you use
foundation wet or dry. Just keep the brush very clean so that you can
reuse it daily.

Dry mineral foundation provides light coverage. This does not mean
that blemishes will be visible through the makeup. It just means that
foundation will feel light on the surface of your face. But you will
be able to layer on mineral powder foundation to cover lines and
irregularities.

Here are some positive benefits that you will get from using mineral
foundation as dry powder:

* It reflects light out of lines, creases and wrinkles. This will
decrease the signs of aging. The mica flakes deflect light a bit more
effectively when they are dry.

* It feels like you are wearing no makeup at all. The powder will help
your skin look smooth and natural.

* You can safely sleep in dry mineral foundation. It is better to
remove makeup if you have the option. Dry mineral foundation are less
likely to block up your pores while you are sleeping.

To apply mineral foundation dry, simply swirl the horsehair brush in
the powder. Tap excess powder off of the horsehair brush. Buff the
powder against your face in a circular motion. Apply layers until you
like the look. You will get results that look light, bright and
natural. You can apply other cosmetics over the mineral foundation if
you like.

Some people prefer to use mineral foundation wet. They feel that this
provides more thorough coverage. This is largely a personal preference
since mineral foundation covers evenly either way. Wet mineral
foundation gives people a more "made up" look that lots of people
think is more glamorous. Of course this look may be less natural, but
people think it looks more professional. In addition, it provides a
great palate for additional makeup. The first thing to do when
applying mineral foundation is dip the brush in the dry powder. Tap
the powder into your palm. Do not get the entire mineral foundation
wet at once. Mix the foundation in your palm with a damp brush. This
will let the liquid mineral foundation stick to the brush. Smooth it
on with your fingers if you like.

You can wear your mineral foundation wet or dry. You will enjoy your
look and the feel of your skin with your mineral foundation.
