The Rarest of Minerals.

Yes, we have all heard of Bare Escentuals and their bareMinerals line by now, right? And we all know about how the minerals in makeup are only a good thing - and quite beneficial.

be_rare.jpgWell, I have been experiencing the ultimate in minerals with a rare combination of minerals from Bare Escentuals and their RareMinerals Skin Revival Treatment .

This is quite different than what you might expect. It is almost like a makeup, as in the way you apply it and for the fact that it does come in shades,that you use right before bed. I buff on these miracle minerals (I am using the clear formula) right as I get into bed. They buff on simply with the sponge that comes attached to the jar, which is great. It is even easy to detach and wash too.

Onto my results. When I first applied it, I did it in front of the mirror. Immediately, I would notice a more air brushed, matte finish to my skin. This in itself is a reason for loving it because my skin didn't look so scary as a freshly cleansed, makeup free face sort of does.

24-Karat Gold - BABY!

gold_dust.jpgI was looking for a little bit of subtle sparkle for New Years Eve last night, and I found it in Jane Iredale's 24-Karat Gold Dust in Gold. And what is truly amazing about this Gold Dust is that it is made with real 24-Karat Gold Leaf.

I swept it over my cheeks, eyelids, chest and shoulders for the big night.  I also patted a bit of it over my lipstick for the evening (Mally's Zooey Doll - the perfect red for my fair skin). I not only looked luxurious, I felt it!

I love how you can totally control the amount of sparkle you wear by simply punching out only a few of the holes in the top of the sifter disc. I never thought of that, but it is instructed right on the package. Love it!

Look for Gold Dust ($34) and all of the great Iredale Mineral Cosmetics online at her website to see the newest innovations in mineral makeup.
