Orglamix Organic Mineral Makeup Review and Giveaway!


 With my sensitive skin, I'm always on the look out for quality mineral make up. My skin is such a combination of things: dry, oily, acne prone...I really prefer something natural to avoid putting chemicals in my skin. I came across Orglamix Organic Mineral Make Up and it was love at first sight! I've tried mineral make up before, but nothing that was truly natural and organic. The first thing you see on the Orglamix Esty shop is this: "Zero Synthetic Ingredients: Orglamix products are proudly formulated without: nano particles, bismuth oxychloride, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals or parabens. PETA approved. I GUARANTEE you will LOVE Orglamix, or your MONEY back."
I was excited to try Orglamix Organic Mineral Make Up but I had such a hard choosing which products to try. I chose:
2 eye colors: Apricot and Cranberry Pure Organic Mineral Eye Color
and
Butternut pure Organic Mineral Foundation

I was nervous about trying the Foundation because I have the hardest time finding my color, but I got lucky and this was a perfect match! I first used it to cover my dark circles, it worked amazingly well! I have dark circles due to allergies and general lack of sleep due to a teething baby :D And most products do not do the trick but this foundation really and truly did! I proceeded to use it as an all over coverage and it felt really light on my face, it covered well but still looked natural!
The two colors I chose in the Pure Organic Mineral Eye Colors were not colors I typically wear, but I wanted to get something different that I knew would stand out but still work well with my simple and casual style.
As a contact wearer, I will say that the eye make up worked best for me if I wet my brush first. Doing that also made the color pop just a little more!
I really loved the overall look this make up gave me, it was so great to wear something that didn't feel greasy or crumbly. And best of all, these products are organic, so I felt confident putting these products on my skin knowing they were safe and natural!
Orglamix Mineral Makeup is not just Foundation and Eye Colors, they have so much more to choose from! You can pick a beautiful Mineral Blush, pick out some amazing Eco Makeup Brushes, or pick one of their Essential/Starter kits to get you started!


Buy it: Head on over to the Orglamix Mineral Makeup Etsy Shop and buy some beautiful and organic mineral makeup!

Win it!: One lucky reader will get to pick any three colors from the following formulas: Pure Organic Mineral Eye, Blush, Glow, Foundation, or Color Corrector!!
