When we talk about a beauty paradise, you have to go to Manchester on a Saturday afternoon. I was there in pre-corona times with a friend and I was amazed. Women in bathrobes with curlers in their hair were bustling through the streets towards the perfumery to get their makeup done. A kind of Douglas as we know it, but six times bigger, all to look as good as possible in the evening. You get it: I was there too. In my normal clothes, a bit underdressed, I walked through this gigantic store where one brand caught my attention: BareMinerals. In big letters it said ‘Creators of Clean Beauty’ and I wanted everything in the collection. I held back and dutifully went home with a starter kit. Regret I had, because this kit contained a loose powder foundation that finally doesn't make my face dry and feels like a second skin. By applying it with a specially designed brush that is also included in the package, you create a natural coverage that lasts all day, even after exercising. If you think a powder can't compare to a liquid foundation, you have to try this one. You have the choice of two options: the Original or the Matte SPF. I love having a protection factor in my makeup so I go for the latter. Want a bit more glow? Then go for the Original. Why am I only sharing this with you now? Because it hasn't been available in the Netherlands all this time, but recently you can order it too. Try the starter kit here, I'm sure you'll be happy with it.
