It has been more than a week since i started using Mineral Makeup from Apothéke and so far, it’s working quite well for me.
How well was it working for me then? Hmm…I will say, my face doesn’t itch that much anymore, i feel my face breathing more freely now and not to mention my face is less oily, even after long hours!

This photo was taken 5hrs after i set my mineral makeup on it - the foundation & mineral veil, both loose powders. I did not re-touch up my face at all after my 1st application in the morning so you can see the difference! Previously when i was using L’oreal makeups, i will often get oily skin all over my face after a few hours and now, i worry less for my face in terms of oil surfacing, hehe :)
TIP!~ Don't apply more than 2 layers of mineral veil powder after your foundation/makeup is done! It is meant to be a finishing powder and it does not have skin tone colours, thus, if you apply too many layers, you will see a PALE or damn thick face of yourself. Trust me....我是过来人! Just a mere 1 or 2 brushful over your face will set a matte glow over your face & you will look just as pretty as ever!
However, they are loose powders, therefore, my face tend to turn a little cakey if i happened to sweat (which i often did, i sweat a lot). I should say the mineral veil powder doesn’t stick onto your skin easily unless there’s a base like foundation primer to help it last. And so, i am now pondering over which Primer to buy….speaking about saving up…duh…Maybe for now, i try NOT to sweat? LOL!!!!!!
LOVES~ Its foundation loose powder! It's very simple and straight-forward. If you want more coverage, a.k.a more thick look on your face, just apply more layers of foundation powder over your face. If you wish to look natural (more for work), just 2 layers should do the job ^^.
Now that i am more or less used to applying loose powders on my face, and i quite like this mineral powders, i’ve decided to order the full size container of the foundation and mineral veil. If you are interested, do drop by http://apothekesg.wordpress.com/
Let’s hope my skin will recover to its original condition with the help of more healthier makeup and skincare products!
