Once upon a time, I was a woman who worked outside of my home. I had a job as an administrative assistant at a busy car dealership and loved my job. When I became pregnant with my first baby, I quit my job so I could be a stay at home mom to my daughter and I have never regretted that decision. When I was working, I remember loving getting dressed up for work, doing my hair and makeup and putting on my fancy shoes. Now, I get out of bed in the morning, shower, throw my hair up in some clips and hit the ground running. Boy do I miss those days sometimes. :) My busy life with four small children limits my ability to pamper myself and make myself look gorgeous every day but you know...it doesn't mean that I can't TRY to look good once in awhile. Wearing makeup and doing my hair is something that I enjoy and being able to use natural products in my beauty routine is something that I enjoy even more!
I have worked with Annmarie Skin Care in the past and their wholesome, natural products are so amazing...I get excited every time they introduce a new product to their line! Today is no exception. They have recently released their newest member and I would love to introduce you to their Earth Minerals Multi-Purpose Foundation! Here is more about this foundation...


Annmarie's facial oils are exquisite...the scents are vibrant and earthy and they are so moisturizing. I have tried them in the past and was very impressed, they worked really well with my skin's chemistry. The Earth Minerals Foundation sounded wonderful and I was excited to check it out.
So, for this review I was sent a sample kit of the Earth Minerals Multi-Purpose Foundation. It doesn't look like much but really, a little goes a long way.
This sample kit is really great because it contains four different foundation colors so you can match the correct foundation to your skin type and color. This also means that you can share with other ladies that might be interested! Here, you can see all four mineral powders and the different colors that come with the kit. Here are the descriptions of the colors and what skin tone they would work best with...

Pearl Mineral Powder: (Fair to Peach Undertones) (⅓ dram)
Sand Mineral Powder: (Light with Yellow Undertones) (⅓ dram)
Honey Mineral Powder: (Medium) (⅓ dram)
Olive Mineral Powder: (Medium with Warm Undertones) (⅓ dram)

Along with the powders, there is a 1/2 dram of Herbal Facial Oil to mix with the powders to create the liquid foundation. Have I mentioned yet how much I LOVE the facial oil? Mmmmmmm...it is so amazing. :)
So, here is how you use this mineral makeup. First, tap a small amount of powder out into your hand. Then, add one or two pumps of oil. In this case, I added a few drops from the small bottle that came in my kit. Last of all, finger-mix the oil and the powder together and voila! You now have some amazing foundation to apply. I did use this foundation and found that because I am a fair skin tone, the pearl and the sand were the best choice for me. I don't like to look too white but I don't want to look like I have a different colored face from my neck. I don't want to look "painted". This foundation mixed so well and applied so smoothly, it is definitely something that I will be using again.
