Brush away blemishes using mineral makeup. All natural mineral makeup evens out blotchy skin tones using a surprisingly light application. The natural ingredients in mineral makeup, such as zinc oxide, sooth your skin and provide great coverage. For your skin to look it's best, mineral makeup like all foundations must be applied carefully.

Prepare your skin well and your complexion will look great all day. Regardless of your skin type you should look for a gentle cleanser, as well as a toner to regulate the ph of the skin and diminish the look of pores, and a moisture rich lotion or primer. Make sure your primer or moisturizer is completely dry before applying your foundation.

A good sunscreen is always a must even if you are not out in the sun much. Even limited exposure can cause sun damage , which leads to premature aging. Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide are two common ingredients in mineral makeup that are excellent natural sunscreens. Skin also needs to be exfoliated to keep the pores clear and unclogged, but harsh exfoliates should be avoided. Milder, oatmeal-based facial scrubs can help unplug the oily pores, and are much kinder to sensitive skin. Without these basic cleansing actions, skin tone becomes dull and uneven and cannot protect itself against the environmental stress it encounters everyday.

Mineral concealer is ideal for acne and rosacea sufferers as it provides complete coverage of blemishes at the same time helping to heal and calm inflammations with the high levels of zinc oxide. Instead of covering spots or acne with a liquid oil concealer that can further clog your pores, dab on an anti-acne formula and use a mineral powder concealer to hide acne and to absorb excess oil.

If you prepare your skin properly first, your mineral makeup will glide on and give you flawless coverage while protecting your skin.
