*** THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED ***

As I've gotten older I've found that mineral make works SO SO much better on my skin and seems to last a whole lot longer, so it has become my preferred makeup. So when Orglamix contacted me via Mom Made That,  about doing a review and giveaway, I did quite a little happy dance!

Here's info on the company and make up from founder Cheri Tracy herself:

All of my products are hand made (by me!) and packaged by hand.  I’m committed to keeping mineral makeup healthy and strictly au natural. All of my products contain the minimum of ingredients (natural ones at that) but still promise truly great products that really perform. The result is a professional, spa-quality, synthetic free cosmetic collection with perfectly pigmented products for eyes, lips and face.  Everything in my range is gentle and pure enough for all skin types.

In a short amount of time, I’ve built up a cult following as a mineral makeup specialist and thanks to my loyal customer base, I’m now expanding and developing new products– my favorite part!  My promise to you is no nasties, no parabens, no synthetic dyes and definitely no nano-particles; only fabulous, healthy color. I promise, try Orglamix pure mineral makeup and you’ll feel good, both inside and out. I guarantee you will love Orglamix, or your money back. It’s that simple!

The Mineral makeup is a blend of minerals and pigments which are micro-
pulverized to form microscopic flat crystals. It boasts the following benefits: 
  •   Will not block pores 
  •  Virtually no allergy risk 
  •  Sun protection - up to SPF 20
  •  Water resistant 
  •  Complete coverage for skin conditions like acne and rosacea 
  • Rarely needs touch up during entire day 
  • Won’t crease or smear even when exercising 
 I was offered THREE products to review and I picked:
celadon shadow
  1. Celadon Eye Shadow- a gorgeous green (which actually looks darker than the photo above)
  2. Rosemary Pure Organic Blush- a great desert rose color
  3. Celestite Glow- a wave of translucence that glimmers and sparkles across your face for a brilliant, out-of-this-world, sequin-like reflection
Here's a pix of what they looked like on in the morning before church (sorry for bad pix- had to use cell phone):

As you can see there is shimmer and shine across the brow and inner eye- which makes the eye open seem larger. The Celadon blended nicely with a light green shadow I already had, making it perfect for DAYWEAR. Please note I put mine on less than the Orglamix promo photo!
Now here it is after 8 hours of being in 87 degree heat with 80% humidity (equivalent of 110 degree heat !!) (cell phone pix again, sorry):
orgalmix after

It's hard to tell from the closeup, but the shimmer is still there, as is the light green. The celadon is still on the corners and under eye in corners. Had I taken a pix with my eyes open, it would have shown better! OOPS. But it was definitely still there and I still looked polish!

I used the same makeup last week when we went to the Audubon Zoo and I knew if it could stand up to that, it would stand up yesterday and boy did it!

This is what I love about Orglamix! If I had used regular makeup it would not have lasted more than an hour TOPS! Plus, when I go to remove the mineral makeup I don't have to use harsh removers-soap and water and I'm good! AND you can apply dry for a natural glow or wet for more intense look (aka nighttime!).

You can check the Beauty Buffet site to see tutorials on how to apply the makeup as well! A recent post was how to get the Sex and the City look!

And now my lucky readers, ONE of you will also get to try Orglamix for yourself, with your choice of THREE products from the Pure Organic Mineral Eye, Blush, Glow product lines!
