Which Color is right for you?


Which Makeup Color are You?


Which color is right for you? Do you have cool, warm, or neutral undertones? Here is a basic guideline.

You have cool undertones if:

Your skin is: pink, rosy, beige, or brown.
Your hair is: a soft shade of brown or blonde, or dark brown or black.
And your eyes are: blue, gray, or black-brown.

You have warm undertones if:

Your skin is: golden or olive.
Your hair is: golden or red.
And your eyes are: green or brown.

You have neutral undertones if:

You have a balance between warm and cool undertones. Most women have neutral undertones.


If you have cool undertones, then you should choose your eye shadow, blush, and lip colors from the cool color family. The cool color family is your pinks and roses and also includes fuchsias, violets, lavenders, grapes, cherries and wines. Pinks and roses are good for cool to neutral skin tones.

If you have neutral undertones, then you should choose your eye shadow, blush, and lip colors from one of the neutral color families. Mauves and berries are considered neutral. Mauves and berries also include: mauves, berries, plums, burgundies, lilacs, and cranberries. Mauves and berries are good for cool to neutral skin tones but leans more toward neutral.
Corals and reds are also considered neutral. Corals and reds include: peaches, corals, oranges, brownish reds, tawnies, apricots, and all shades of red except for the bluish reds, which are considered cool. Corals and reds are good for neutral to warm skin tones but lean more toward the neutral.

If you have warm undertones, then you should choose your colors from the warm color family. The beiges and browns are considered warm colors and includes: browns, bronzes, golds, mochas, taupes and spices. Beiges and browns are good for warm to neutral skin tones. Now that you know more about skin undertones, you now have the knowledge to pick the perfect makeup color for your skin. But by all means, if you have cool undertones but are drawn to the warmer colors, don’t think this is written in stone. Have fun and experiment with your new colors. Choose lighter or darker shades of your colors. When it comes to makeup, in the end, whatever makes you happy and feeling beautiful is the right color for you.

The Benefits of Mineral Makeup


In todays society every woman wants to look beautiful and attractive. Cosmetic products and mineral makeup has its fans and its critics. Those who love it rave about the light, natural, long-lasting glow that simply can't be duplicated by other types of makeup. Others, however, complain of its drying, and irritations. Some say the colors have an ashy undertone that is a particular problem for ethnic skin types. Suredly, this is from additives, not the minerals themselves.

CMH Essentials foundations use NO ADDITIVES and come in a variety of colors, ensuring that there is a color to match virtually any skin shade. Most mineral foundations are matte, though they can be coupled with an all-over-face color or bronzer if shine is desired. CMH Essentials foundations provide excellent coverage and are perfect for all skin types, including skin affected by acne or rosacea.
Some of the many benefits of mineral makeup are:

- natural mineral makeup looks natural.

A nice Mineral Makeup guideline

A Nice Mineral Makeup Guideline

Mineral makeup has burst and created a scene in the cosmetic industry recently, for a good reason. While most makeup products today use fillers and binders, mineral makeup goes way back to the basics, using only natural ingredients to create a modern look. Mineral makeup is created from micronized minerals, including colorants like micas, oxides and ultramarines. Zinc dioxide and titanium dioxide are also common ingredients in mineral makeup, providing broad spectrum skin protection, giving you the smarter option for protecting your skin.

If you are the point of trying mineral makeup or in the search for the best mineral makeup, you may have noticed the increasing number of mineral makeup companies out there. The choices are overwhelming for people just getting into mineral makeup. This guide will show you how to choose the perfect and best mineral makeup for your skin, paving the way for you to become a mineral makeup expert as time passes by.

Here are some factors to consider when searching for the best mineral makeup:

1.) Starter kits – mineral makeup kits are a fantastic way to begin your journey into mineral makeup. Larger mineral makeup companies such as Bare Escentuals and Sheer Cover offer a variety of starter kits for different skin tones. These kits include everything you’ll need to get started like makeup brushes and sometimes even instructional DVD’s and booklets, however be careful to lookout for autoships and fullfillment programs. Smaller companies also offer makeup kits. However each company is different, so be sure to compare and choose the best kit for you.

2.) Samples – Smaller companies tend to excel when it comes to samples. They usually offer their loose mineral foundation in small and trial sizes for a smaller price, along with other of their product lines in sample sizes. Samples are a great way if you’re looking at choosing the right eye color or pigment, aside from trying out a new product.

3.) Brand recognition – you might have undoubtedly come across the big names in mineral makeup in doing your research. Companies include the aforementioned Bare Escenutals / Bare Minerals and Sheer Cover (Leeza Gibbons). You may be comfortable with starting out with a familiar brand, and believe me, there is nothing wrong with that. You don’t have to limit yourself to the larger names, since there are lot of large and small companies out there which offer skin care and quality cosmetics.

4.) Ingredients – Ingredients are a debated topic in the mineral makeup scene. Ingredients like bismuth oxychloride and talc should be avoided, as some people might say, but in reality these ingredients found in mineral makeup are perfect for your skin. It all comes down to personal preference. Some ingredients may cause irritation or breakouts for sensitive skin. The key is triying out the product on your skin. Discontinue use of the brand if it causes you skin problems. Don’t be afraid to ask questions before purchasing. Most companies are more than happy to answer your concerns about their products and ingredients that they use.

5.) Price – Mineral makeup prices can vary, depending on the brand. Expensive doesn’t always mean quality. Smaller companies can sell their products at a lower price because they don’t have to deal with the larger overhead that most large companies have, but the lower prices do not mean that the products are not high quality. Your skin will be the judge on how much you have to pay for the mineral makeup. If your skin is happyPsychology Articles, then you’ll know that you’ve found the best mineral makeup for you.

Less is Better







Not all mineral makeup is created the same. When shopping for a good brand, it’s important to note that less is more. In other words, an ingredient list a few inches thick is not a good thing. In general, the less ingredients, the better. Mineral makeup need only contain minerals. It does not need talc or other fillers. It doesn’t need preservatives since it’s made from minerals and minerals cannot support bacterial growth. Be sure to check the label, since “mineral makeup” has become a catch phrase and doesn’t mean that only minerals are contained in the formula.
