MAC Mineralize SPF 15 Foundation

Thanks to my younger sister, I caved in to purchasing MAC’s newest foundation MAC Mineralize SPF 15 Foundation.   She went to the MAC counter and the makeup artist recommended MAC Mineralize for her dry skin.  I have dry skin myself, so I definitely had to try this out.   I’ve been on my quest to find my HG Foundation, it has been two years!

Currently, I’m a NC37 in MAC’s Studio Fix Fluid Foundation.  At the MAC Counter, I was matched with MAC NC30! Yes..NC30, I was surprised as well.  As a word of caution, MAC Mineralize Foundation runs really dark!

According to MAC’s website: MAC Mineralize SPF 15 Foundation can be described “as a rich, luxurious compact foundation offering a creamy application for a flawless, medium-buildable, naturally revitalized, fully dimensional finish. Lightweight and silky to apply. Good for all skin types; particularly benefits dull and/or dry complexions. Provides super-hydrated, high-comfort wear and everyday SPF 15 sun protection.”

Approx. Price: $32 (This is MAC’s most expensive foundation!)

For all you with sensitive skin, MAC Mineralize SPF 15 Foundation does not contain bismuth…YaY! So far, I haven’t experienced any breakouts.

Review coming soon…

Your Go-To Five-Minute Makeup Routine

In that case, heave ho!) This step-by-step tutorial will show you how to get a gorgeous makeup look in under five minutes.

My five minute makeup routine consists of three things - foundation, blush, and eyeliner.  It’s that simple.
