RJ Mineral Foundation is a truly new

concept in make-up and it may take

a few tries to get your application

'just right' - But don’t give up, the

results are well worth the effort and

you will be amazed with the results

you will get from RJ Mineral

Cosmetics Powder Mineral Foundation!

 

-          Always apply minerals in

thin layers, two is usually sufficient.

-          Make sure you moisturiser has

absorbed before you apply mineral

powder.

 

Foundation:

Turn the jar over, tap the bottom with

your finger, turn right side up, and

open.

You should find a small amount of RJ

Mineral Cosmetics Foundation in the lid.

Swirl your Professional Kabuki brush in

the foundation, and tap the excess

back into the lid.

Begin applying with short, feathery,

downward strokes and/or light circles.

You want the fine hairs and pores of

your skin to lay flat.

 

Concealing:

If you need to conceal something, use

the Concealer brush and blend

foundation onto that area.

Use a damp flocked sponge or our Total

Coverage Face brush for a heavier

coverage, this is especially good for

areas under the eyes and for

concealing large pores.

 

Setting Powder:

Use the Professional Kabuki or Deluxe

Blush brush and apply all over the

face after the application of eye

cosmetics, lipstick and blush.

 

Moisture Setting:

For dry skin, you can spritz a little skin

freshener on top. This will re-hydrate

your skin and correct a dry or flaky look.

Also, if you mist with the skin freshener,

and then use a flocked sponge or brush

to lightly smooth your make up in a

downward motion; you will minimize

the appearance of large pores.

 

Eye shadow:

Use the Shadow brush to apply your

eye shadow. Tap some colour into the

lid, swirling your brush, tapping off the

excess and applying.

 

Eyeliner:

Add a little water or skin freshener to

the colour in the lid, and mix, use the

Fine Liner brush and apply.

Smudge, if desired, for a "smoky" look.

 

Blush:

Use the Deluxe Blush brush to gather

your colour from the lid and tap off the

extra. Then use light, feathery strokes

from the apple of your cheek back

towards your hairline.

  

Lip Liner:

You can use the same technique

outlined with the eyeliner above,

or you can apply clear lip balm and use

the Lipstick brush to line your lips with

the powder.

 

Lipstick:

Use the same technique for the lip

liner; simply fill in your whole lip.

 

Brow Liner:

You can use this dry or wet, apply with

the Duel Shadow Liner brush using the

angled end to apply then soften with

the brush end.

 

Bronzer:

Use the Deluxe Flat Top Bronzer Brush

and apply the colour to any part of

your body that you want bronzed. You

can also mix the RJ Mineral Cosmetics

powder Bronzer in with your usual

body lotion or moisturiser for a ‘smooth’

Bronze look!

 

Nail Polish:

Use a clear nail polish and dip the

brush into the colour you would like.

Want a whole bottle of your favourite

shade? No problem, simply add

whichever RJ Mineral Cosmetics you

like to a bottle of clear nail polish,

shake well and start painting.

 

Other Goodies:

Make up minerals can be added to

lotion for sparkles all- over body look,

this looks fantastic with RJ Mineral

Cosmetics Body Shimmers, why not

try BS06 for a ‘breathless glow to

the skin!’

You can add RJ Mineral Cosmetic

powders to hair gel, for glittery hair,

or the powders can be dry dusted

into hair, and then set with hair spray.

 

RJ Mineral Cosmetic products can be

mixed into almost anything for a

unique look. And combining colours

will give you a style all your own!

 

Troubleshooting Tips & Tricks

 

Too Much Shine?
Layering too thickly or pressing i
nto

the skin with the brush tends to

separate the crystals.

It is easy to avoid this by applying the

minerals in thin layers in downward

strokes with an appropriate brush

(we recommend Kabuki brushes).

Keep adding layers until desired

coverage has been reached. It can also

help to spritz with a freshener and then

blot.

 

Uneven and blotchy?
This is usually because the minerals

have been applied before the

moisturizer has been absorbed or

because the moisturizer being used

only lays on the skin surface. The

simple solution is to wait a minute

for the moisturizer to disappear or

to blot any excess.

 

Wrong colour?
This was probably chosen in poor

lighting. The best way to test for the

right colour is to do it on the jaw line

in daylight. The colour should

disappear if it blends perfectly with

the skin.

 

Skin Tickle?
If you get a feeling of ‘tickling’ on
the

skin or a slight ‘tightness’ around the

nose after you first application, don’t

worry this could just be technique.

Try applying again using softer, lighter

strokes with your Kabuki brush;

remember you build layers gently to

get the desired coverage. The skin on

your face is very delicate and you may

find the use of a dry brush for

applying make-up a little strange at

first but go softly and your skin will

love you for changing over to RJ

Mineral Cosmetic products.*

 

Mineral Make-up can be applied

immediately after a light peel or micro

dermabrasion. It will not only cover

the redness, but the Titanium Dioxide

and Zinc Oxides are anti-inflammatory,

which will help to calm the irritation.

 

If you are perspiring heavily or

swimming, don’t wipe your face with a

towel or with your hand. Just pat your

face dry with a towel.
