Earthnicity Minerals Makeup

ByLisa Jayne 



When it comes to foundation I’ve always been a heavy coverage kind of girl. It’s only in recent years since I’ve had luck with my skincare routine, that I’ve ventured to more of a light coverage. Still I’ve only ever used liquid foundations, mineral makeup is somewhat alien to me. In fact when it comes to mineral makeup I have no idea at all, I actually thought Bare Minerals were the only brand that did mineral makeup. So when Earthnicity Minerals contacted me about their mineral foundation, I was interested to learn more.




Earthnicity’s mineral foundation claims to provide a matte, yet natural-looking finish, which lasts all day without looking or feeling heavy. It also contains no perfumes, alcohol, or other irritating ingredients – perfect if you’re acne-prone or have sensitive skin. Their mineral foundation 10 different shades, and as I’m super pale I used shade Porcelain, which I found fitted my skin tone perfectly. I’m used to my liquid foundations that give me all day coverage, so when I first started using this I was a little worried how a powder would give me enough coverage. I actually found once applied it sat on my skin perfectly, and still gave me the right amount of coverage without feeling as heavy on my skin. I actually found that after a few weeks of wearing my skin was looking a lot healthier too, probably because it can breathe a lot easier with mineral foundation.








As well as Earthnicity’s mineral foundation, I also tried out their Velvet HD Powder. The Velvet HD Powder is a multi-tasker powder, working to give your skin a soft focus effect, blurring the look of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as brightening your complexion. It can also work as a mattifier, absorbing excess oils and controlling shine. I think out of the two products this one impressed me the least. It worked well as a finishing touch to my makeup, but I didn’t find it worked any differently compared to normal loose powder. 




I’m glad that I’ve tried out Earthnicity Minerals products, and it’s certainly made me want to use mineral foundation more. Earthnicity Minerals also do other mineral versions of makeup, including blushers and bronzers, and if you’re a mineral newbie like me they have some start up kits which are perfect! Do you use mineral makeup? What do you think?

    Technically as it’s the end of August, it’s not really summer anymore. I say technically because I’ve still got a wardrobe of summer clothes I haven’t touched this year, and I’m pretty sure there’s only been about 4 days where it’s been hot. Regardless of it not being that warm, I’ve still been wearing a…

    I’ve always loved looking at other bloggers ‘perfume collection’ type posts, and I’d love to do one myself but truth be told I only ever have one or two bottles on the go. I seem to have a eye (or nose) for expensive types of perfume, so I can never afford to have a collection….

    I’ve seen this floating around on a couple of blogs today and thought I’d give it a wurl too 🙂   Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eye liners, lipsticks and lip glosses or lose all your palettes and eye shadows? Lose all my palettes and eye shadows. I couldn’t live without mascara…

    Hair Envy

    I don’t know about you, but I constantly get hair envy. Wherever I go I’m constantly looking at other girl’s hair, and usually wishing it was mine. I’m constantly dying my hair, and re styling it, but I’m never happy with the outcome. A few months ago I experimented with dying my hair dark red before going…
