A mineful of make-up

 

Laura Mercier Mineral Powder
$83, and Mineral Eye Powder, $48,
from True Colours, B1-13A Ngee Ann City

The finely milled face powder is made completely of natural ingredients, including 15 active amino acids to clear the skin of toxins. It promotes healthy skin cell growth and fights the ageing process.

The loose eye powder contains a dose of high sparkle and can be applied wet or dry.

 
MAC Mineralize Skinfinish (left), $43, and Satinfinish (right), $49

Skinfinish is a mineral face powder which offers light coverage while Satinfinish is a liquid foundation.

The liquid product delivers luminosity through the light-reflecting properties of micro-minerals, while the domed powder gives a non-cakey matte finish and can be used for touch-ups throughout the day.

For those looking for a talc-free product, however, be warned that Skinfinish does contain the ingredient.

 
Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics, starting from $25 for an eye pencil to $89 for a liquid foundation from Medspa, 12-03 Camden Medical Centre

Founded by a former paramedical aesthetician (who has more training and experience in the medical aspects of skin and skin treatments than a general aesthetician), the decade-old Youngblood line is sold only at plastic surgery and dermatology clinics around the world.

It carries a wide range of products, from concealers to lipsticks, mascaras and quality brushes.
