Hi there, my darlings! With the holidays right around the corner, I think the overriding theme of the next few weeks' blog posts will be the holidays! The Holidays for me, at least, mean lots of sleep, time to catch up with friends and...use a bunch of products I don't normally have the time or energy to use during the work week. That's right--it's time to bust out all the makeup I hoard over the course of the year! This morning, I'd like to share a selection of products from indie cosmetic brand, Fusion of Color Cosmetics.
Why choose an indie when there are literally thousands of big name makeup brands out there? Well, let's take a peek at what Fusion of Color is all about to answer that question :
Fusion of Color Cosmetics are created from real minerals taken directly from the earth. These minerals are then processed into a fine powder and mixed with natural inorganic colors to produce a wide variety of colors. It does not matter what skin tone you have, from very light porcelain to a dark undertone and every shade in between, there is a mineral cosmetic that can perfectly match your skin.Minerals offer very good and buildable coverage that doesn't feel like you're wearing any makeup at all.
The main ingredients in mineral cosmetics are inorganic. Simply stated there is no organic material in it to grow bacteria. Also, with the use of inorganic ingredients in the make up gives the make up a very long and stable shelf life. Fusion of Color Mineral makeup is the best to use because it adheres to the natural oils in a person's skin and doesn't seep into the pores.
The benefits of using natural mineral cosmetics is what makes them so popular today.

- Brassery : Golden Brown with a slight pink undertone Shimmer Eye Shadow
- Sandstone : Light Golden Orange/Pink/Peach Shimmer
- Esmeralda : Green Shimmer with a blue undertone and shimmer
- Regency : Dark Rich Shimmery Blue with lavender-pink undertones
Now, these are loose pigments which means that just a little goes a long way--the swatches below show just a couple of swipes on the back of my hand. Just look at how pigmented these are!

For blush, Kathy sent me Bewitched, described as a "Coral Pink Shimmer".
This shade looked more peachy pink on my complexion and would work great as a highlighter!

Last but not least, let's talk about my faves--lippies! Knowing I like berry tones, Kathy sent me lipstick and a lipgloss in the following shades :
Choco Berry lipstick : Neutral Brown/Pink/berry
Gumdrop lipgloss : Pink with Wine and Silver undertones
Both these formulations are vegan and apply beautifully. Choco Berry is such a perfect neutral shade, giving my complexion a hint of rosy, berry tint--perfect for the office or a more formal event. Gumdrop wore darker on my complexion, with the wine undertone really playing up. Again, this gloss applied smoothly, giving my lips a hint of color which could be built up as desired. Best part? The silver shimmer makes it really unique!
So there you have it, my darlings! If you would like to check out Fusion of Color, you can find her HERE--prices are super affordable with everything well under $10.
