I've worked with Erth Minerals, in the past, and fell in love with their eyeshadow and lip gloss.  I was, of course, thrilled to get the opportunity to work with them again.  I was sent 2 blushers, a foundation, moth veil, eye concealer and their new Prime Moisturizing Eye Primer.

The 2 blushers are gorgeous!  These colors are perfect for just about any skin tone.  I have extremely pale skin and these blushers brought out a nice, healthy looking glow to my cheeks.  Aster Blusher, on the left, is a beautiful rosey pink.  Out of the 2, this one has to be my favorite.  I can't rave enough about the beautiful glow it gives to my cheeks.  Posey, on the right, is more a peachy color.  I love the 'innocence' look I get by using Posey.  The picture really doesn't do a good job of showing the true colors; they look quite similar but once you  put them on, you can definitely see the difference.

Next is the foundation and moth veil.  I have used many mineral foundations and just when I thought I found the perfect shade for my ghostly, pale skin.... I discovered that their foundation (in 1.0, on the left) suites my skin tone even better! I tried to do a swatch, on my arm, but you just could not see the color at all!  That's how much of a perfect match this foundation is!!  I was very impressed with the coverage.  I don't need a lot of coverage but, when I do, this layers on nicely.  The Moth Veil, used over your foundation, gave my skin the flawless look we ladies only dream about.  Have pale skin? Give Erth Minerals Foundation 1.0 and their Moth Veil a shot!


Erth Minerals Eye Concealer works great for those dark circles under the eyes.  I've had dark circles every since I was small so finding something that covers that up is a must.  I've never been fond of cream concealer.  I have oily skin and cream concealer just melts right off.  Erth Minerals eye concealers are the first mineral concealers I have used.  I can say I'm pleasantly surprised with this product.  The Wheat Concealer (on the right) is rather light and really stood out on my skin color but once I mixed it with a little bit of the Canvas Multi-Tasking Concealer (on the left) and it came out quite nicely with great coverage.



Erth Mineral's newest product is the Prime Moisturizing Eye Primer.  Erth's Prime Eye Primer works double-duty! As a lid primer, Prime both extends the intensity & staying power of their mineral eyeshadows. As an eye creme, Prime treats our lids to a special blend of organic aloe, evening primrose oil, & other active botanicals to moisturize & protect delicate the delicate eye area.  Now that is some good stuff for the eyelids!  I am in love with this product!  It did deepen my eyeshadow and even stayed on for about 2 hours longer than normal.  Having oily skin, my eye makeup tends to wear off pretty fast; so for my eyeshadow to stay on 2 hours longer....that's a big deal!  Wonderful, wonderful stuff.
