Looks Using Earthen Glow Minerals

Here are some looks using mostly Earthen Glow Minerals. I really like the texture of its blushes and shadows. They are very easy to blend even when foiled. It has a myriad of colors of blushes and shadows to choose from. The biggest winner of EG Minerals, I believe, are the foundations. This is one of the easiest-to-work-with mineral foundations I've tried. First of all, the foundations of either formula (Cover Me and Youthful Glow) are just a breeze to apply, and they never looked cakey or unnatural on my face. Some people even say that I look younger when I wear their foundations. The finish is neither too glowy nor too matte; it has just the right creaminess. Also, the fact that I have exact matches in the two formulas is a major plus because it cuts back application time significantly.

You look so pretty and flawless here! You make me want to try Earthen Glow's Mineral foundation now. What shade do you think I am?

Mineral Queen! I love all the looks you've created! My favorite is the purple eyes..close up..it's perfection!

The eye shadows look gorgeous on you.
They seem to be sort of satiny or pearly in finish?
Your skin looks so flawless with the foundation!

Olga!! Nice seeing you here; thanks :). I think Helena can also work with you as it is a tad dark on me in real life, but looks perfect in pics. Also, some ladies also use Deanna in the Cover Me formula. I use Janelle in Youthful Glow. HTH!

Thanks as always, NIkki. EG foundations are amazing, seriously.

Phyrra- thank you! I have several of their shadows and some of them have a satiny finish and some sparkly. I used something that is a little in between.

wow sis you really make me want to try EG. just a question about their lippies though, are the ones in the palette the same shades that are available individually or are they different?

The Shades Of U said...

musicalfan- hey sis nice to see you here...you know what, I really don't know if the 15 pan lip palette has the same shades as the individual lippies because the shades in the palette don't have names. :( I suggest you e-mail EG about it. Sorry I'm not much help!

Hi sis! I really love all your looks but my fave is the violet one..very pretty :)

by the way, is youthful glow not good for oily skin gals? coz I'm still debating if I will try YG formula or not coz I am oily :D

Crystal said...
