Colorescience

With traditional makeup, liquid foundations are all about coverage, usually heavy coverage. With Colorescience mineral makeup, we call our liquid foundations  primers because that is exactly what they do. They prime the skin. They are sheer in texture, helping to even the skin tone and smooth the texture of the skin. While loose and pressed minerals stay on for many hours without need for reapplication, the primers take the mineral concept to a brand new dimension. If you like the way the minerals look without primers, you will love the look with the primers. Originally created for problem and aging skin, the primers add such a beautiful dimension that almost everyone will add these to their beauty routine. Your friends will ask you what you are doing to look so healthy! Each primer has a special purpose. You may choose more than one. Just as you have more than one type of clothing look: casual, business, or evening, you will find that the combination of primers and mineral pigments will give you versatility in the way you wear your face! Each primer is packaged in a special airless container to give the product the best shelf life with the least amount of preservatives.

Rock Solid Foundation. More pigment per square inch! Unlike traditional pressed powders which are usually translucent and used as a finishing powder, Colorescience's very concentrated pressed mineral pigment gives more coverage than any other formula! Pressed pigments are highly recommended in our Camouflage Brochure to cover all types of skin challenges, even varicose veins. Colorescience compacts are high density, pure pigment. They are full of life, leaving the skin looking young, healthy and vibrant, as if backlit. Less is more, so use sparingly at first, then layer.

Compare Colorescience pressed minerals to all others that call themselves pressed minerals and you will see a huge difference. Many other pressed minerals leave a dull finish on the skin that looks gray, unhealthy and lifeless. This is reminiscent of traditional formulas used to mattify the oils. Use pressed minerals for a more formal mineral finish or simply for more complete coverage. Just as we have clothing wardrobes, we should have wardrobes of colore. Pressed minerals may be used alone or in conjunction with Crème de la Crème primer. This leaves the skin with a photo finish. This is the look desired for special occasions such as business conferences, weddings, photo sessions and drama. Available in six colores.

How To Use: Apply with a sponge to achieve the most coverage. Use the press and pat technique. Comes with two sponges. Use one for application and the other to"erase" if you over apply. While you can achieve full coverage, you can still avoid a heavy look. Those with oily skin often prefer a matte finish. You can achieve this by moistening the pigment. To do this, press the dry puff into the pigment several times. Spritz the pigment on the puff and apply to the skin. (Store damp sponge in bottom compartment.) Do not wet pressed pigment in compact! Apply with a powder brush for a softer, more casual finish, similar to the foundation brush application. Use broad brush strokes.
