Knowledge, Not Hype, Is The Key
If you're seeking knowledge in regards to what it really takes to have as perfect complexion as you can, then grab a cup of coffee sit back and relax. Join the millions of other mineral makeup cosmetic clients just like yourself searching for why, how, and what it takes to have the healthiest, most flawless skin available. Without seeing the dermatologist of course, for those procedures will cost you a small to large fortune on your credit card, or maybe you can just take out a home loan to pay for them. lol Truth be told all you may really may need is readable information that makes sense to you. For those of you that know me, you know how I feel about clean healthy skin. Everything, yes everything that can make your skin a perfect canvas to work on, starts before any makeup application begins. Yes, I know, you've all heard it before. Well there's a reason you've heard it before. The same reason you've heard it over and over lately so much more often. All the studies from one end of the US to the far ends of Asia, scientists, chemists, dermatologists, aestheticians, and professional makeup artists are putting the tools of their trade down to listen and learn from each other, and incorporate the well established proven research in the cosmetic and skin care industries into their programs. Results speak for themselves! I don't want to get to into detail with all the logistics/chemical logistics of it all here. I know most of you rely on Cosmetic Companies to find what works and then fill you all in and keep you updated. Enough women's magazines are printed on a monthly basis to fill the White House Oval Office, and seep out the doorway. Yet, still you all are missing the keys to what makes healthy happy skin and you can't figure out why. Frustrating when you, the consumer's are trying product after product and not happy with the results, thus going on to the next product and company. As a professional makeup artist and image consultant both freelance and management for one of the largest retail high end department store chains in the world Complexion Perfection Starts With Clean Healthy Well Taken Care of Skin From The Inside Out! Are you wanting to achieve a perfectly flawless complexion? Of course you do! Well that starts with your skin, and natural skin care is the only means to achieve what you're looking for if you're not wanting to add harsh chemicals. Natural skin care is plant amino acids, estrogens, and other biochemical properties that work "with" the natural photosynthesis properties deep within your skin. Of course it makes sense! You and nature are one in the same. Mother Earth wouldn't steer you wrong and we bring you only the highest quality products specifically targeted for your skin's individual needs. |

The Perfect Canvas for a Flawless Face Mineral Makeup Without Bismuth Oxychloride. |
| Step | Process | Explanation | 1 | Cleanse, Tone, Moisturize | Skin that is gently cleansed, and moisturizes helps makeup blend easier. Moisturizing is one of the best preps you can give your skin, especially is you aren't going to wear a mineral foundation face powder. If you're not wearing one of RAESIN IMAGES mineral makeup foundation formulas, then you will want to make sure you are using a sunscreen with at least an SPF rating of 15 or higher. (See new SPF Information) I do tell women with oily combination skin my secret to non greasy natural moisturizer. What is it? Why you're natural skin's oils of course! | 2 | Mineral Make Up Primers (powder, liquid, or cream) | If you think of a primer for your skin as you would a primer for a car or the walls of a house before it's painted, then you understand why it's needed. A primer fills in cracks, lines, wrinkles, and pores, in the skins upper layers. Primer's even out the skins surface texture, making it smooth, while at the same time, holding moisture in, plus it helps makeup last longer throughout the day and/or night. | 3 | Skin Type | First you need to know what condition your skin is really in. Dry, normal, oily, combination? Most women don't know, because they've overused and abused products, so their skin is doing what it wouldn't normally be doing. 90% of women between the ages of 21-35 have normal or combination skin. The rest of us are in one of the several hormonal skin stages. Though some of us never get out of these hormone stages, so have changing skin conditions at any given hour of the day. (how to pick your skin type) | | 4 | Mineral Foundation Shade | If you haven't a flaw to cover, and there are women that don't, then skip foundation, except in those areas where you need it. (i.e. under eye, discolorations, etc) For the rest of the population that feels they need some coverage, or like to start with a washed canvas and add color where they want it. Then you will need to figure out what tone/shade of skin you have. See Chart for how to find your skin tones I find most women fall into a neutral category with neither a lot of pink or yellow undertones. I have formulated Neutral, Aminah, and Linen color categories, which suit 90% of my clients skin tones. Of course RAESIN IMAGES, Inc. does sell mineral makeup samples are available in all shades and customs. | | 5 | Proper Application | Foundation application techniques are important.. Everyone uses a different method that works best for them. It depends on the amount of coverage you are needing, as well as what you're comfortable with or have for makeup tools and accessories when applying. I usually used a flocked sponge or makeup foundation brush for applying my mineral makeup face powder. I have a great page on application tips for mineral makeup foundation. Check it out and see what method you prefer. Take your time, have the correct lighting, and don't rush. It's always best to try a new method when you're getting ready for an interview or date. | | 6 | Concealers and/or Correctors | Concealers should be 1/4 -1 shade lighter then foundation. Don't go too light though you'll only look like a raccoon! RI mineral concealers are formulated 1/4-1/2 shade lighter in each color tone, so all your mineral makeup face powder products can be purchased in the same color tone. I add light reflecting powders to all my concealer formula's to help detract from the area. When using concealers it's always best to apply only where you need them, as they are a thicker, heavier formula. I usually apply concealers before I apply foundation, this way I can see whether my models and clients really need foundation or not. Always tap on, so you're not dragging the delicate eye area skin. Taklon concealer brushes really do work best! | | 7 | Hard to Cover Areas | Use the concealer corrector chart for the proper colors to correct hyper pigmentation, redness, scars, and other skin conditions you may have. My concealer extremes are also formulated with light reflecting particles. Use a foundation or concealer brush to cover areas properly. Always start with a little, and tap on. Sometimes depending on the amount of coverage I need I will use a wet powder or cream to work on hyper pigmentation, under eye circles and acne scarring before I apply our mineral foundation face powder. | | 8 | Setting Powders | Apply mineral face setting powder with a big puff, just like you would any loose face powder, and press lightly into skin. Use just enough to cover areas where you may tend to be shinier throughout the day. I sometimes only use my light reflecting blends of setting powder on clients instead of foundation, especially in the Summer months when it's humid. | | 9 | Finishing Touches | If we're doing make up for a pageant, or photo shoot, then we add lighter powders, and darker contouring powders where the face would normally shade, or I want to recede a specific area. Blush isn't a good contour, so pick 2 shades lighter in your foundation tones, or my luminosity powders and you'll have a great shade that will work for you and not look artificial, you can do the same with areas that may need lightening. It's amazing what you can do to change your look with some proper contouring and highlighting. Luminosity powders, setting corrector powders, and Lumiere Powders are also a great way to add dimension to your face, quickly and easily. | | 10 | The End - Flawless Complexion | Blend, blend, blend, blend. I really want everyone to understand the importance of blending with a large fluffy powder brush. A kabuki is good, I really prefer a long handled, long bristle, natural hair powder brush for this. Just blend in a down and out motion. Your skin should look completely natural and if it doesn't, then you have too much product on and will need to take a clean unused powder puff and tap allover your face, and then continue blending, you can repeat this step if you've botched the job also, as it or a tissue will blot off the excess powder. I also use one of my natural skin care lotion mists or hydrosols of natural blends and/or spring water and lightly mist clients facial skin, this sets makeup so you're ready to start with your mineral makeup color cosmetic applications of products. |
