Everyday Minerals Aussie Perk Me Up Review



The "Everyday Minerals "Aussie Perk Me Up" is one of most coveted beauty products! For fair to light complexions, it has a pearlescent quality that diffuses light so you actually look more radiant and perky. It works wonders on under-eye circles and can be used as a spot treatment for blemishes or dusted on all over before you sweep on your Everyday Minerals base. "Perkier than that morning cup of coffee." 

Truly HG worthy concealer! I'm constantly asked how I look so well rested being a Mother of two and all of the credit goes to my trusty "Aussie Perk Me Up"!

PRICE: $4.50 for travel size and $8.00 for BIG size.
AVAILABILITY: EverydayMinerlas.com.

My recent purchases...

 

 An oil-free medium-to-full-coverage liquid foundation that covers skin imperfections flawlessly while remaining invisible on-screen and in real life. This foundation creates a soft-focus effect, which is designed to meet the coverage concerns of those in the spotlight. It leaves your complexion with such a flawless finish, it can withstand bright or harsh lighting.

Half lash. Creates enhanced density along outer edge. #20 creates the Perfect Spring "Cat Eye" lash.

If you love Gaga 2 lipstick but want a lipgloss, you’ll want to get hold of this. It’s the perfect mix of gloss and a lipstick, shiny and full coverage pigmentation.

Prism is a matte peachy brown blush that can be used for some bronzing and facial contouring for fair skin types. It's a "natural cheek but even better" color. It's the perfect balance of cool and warm.

Qupid, $25
I couldn't find the exact pair online but I found a similar style!

I hope everyone enjoys my mid week Beauty purchases as much as I do! If you're questioning that purchase, just do it!!!!!!

DIY: Sugar Scrub

  • 1 cup organic demerara sugar (or any other coarse sugar will work)
  • 1-2 tsp organic unrefined coconut oil
  • 2 tsp organic shredded coconut
Mix shredded coconut and sugar in a small bowl, stir until blended. Heat coconut oil in a small pot just until melted. Pour coconut oil over sugar and shredded coconut, you'll notice it liquefies some of the sugar. With a fork or spoon, stir oil into the sugar mixture. It will start to spread. Continue until the sugar is all one consistency.

To use: Apply a small amount to areas you want to exfoliate and moisturize.

How To Fix Broken Eyeshadow

What you need:
  • A pair of gloves
  • Isopropyl Alcohol (Rubbing alcohol) 70% the higher the better
  • Broken Eyeshadow
  • Quarter
  • Spatula
  • Tissue
  • 2 Small Containers
  • Dropper 
Put your gloves on, pour out the Isopropyl Alcohol into a smaller container, you do not need a lot, just enough to mix the shadow with it to create a paste, more is not necessarily better. Next, scrape out the broken Eyeshadow with the spatula into a small container. With a dropper pick up the Isopropyl Alcohol and drop 2-3 drops into the shadow, every shadow is different and uses different amounts of alcohol. Mix it around with the spatula until it has become a paste.
 Pour the Eyeshadow paste into the palette, wrap a tissue around a quarter and gently press the shadow and hold it for a few seconds. Allow 1-2 hours to dry.

And Voila, you have fixed your broken Eyeshadow!

Try Everyday Minerals for FREE!

I love Everyday Minerals makeup! I've reviewed their products in the past, and I do believe that their company has the best priced and the best quality mineral makeup you can purchase. I've been using EM for a few months now, it took me a while to really step out of my "MAC" box. I would say I use Everyday Mineral makeup 90% of the time! I like mineral makeup because it creates a much more natural, even look to my skin and eyes, without creating smudge or shine. Everyday Minerals has a wide variety of colors for your cheeks, face, eyes and lips.

And the best part about Everyday Minerals, you can try a $5 Base Sample Kit for FREE! Each kit includes 5 jars, ($1 each!) of 4 different formulas in your choice of shade.Each sample contains 1 gram of product and will give you about 5-7 applications.

Now don't just take my word for it, simply add a $5 Base Sample Kit to your Everyday Minerals shopping bag and discount will appear in your "my cart" page before checkout. No purchase required.
