Mineral makeup recipes are fun to make and it’s so easy you’ll wonder why you didn’t try it before. The simple ideas that follow will show you how to “tweak” several different types of cosmetics with your minerals. You can whip up these recipes in no time.

In the homemade makeup section I shared with you the recipe for making custom eyeshadows and custom blushes using mousse makeup as the base and adding eyeshadow and blush pigments. You saw how easy it was to tweak the color and get the perfect match for you. Did you try it yet?

It’s easy to combine cosmetic bases with pigments. You can make your mineral makeup into a cream foundation.

Mineral Makeup Foundation Cream

When you’re tired of messing with mineral makeup foundation powder you’ll be glad to know that you can just take it and make it into a cream or liquid foundation. This is one of the easiest mineral makeup recipes you can do.

    Step 1: The best way to do it is to mix in small amounts. Take your normal color and your favorite moisturizing cream and mix it half minerals and half cream moisturizer.

    Step 2: Next, you want to add more of the powdered minerals until you get the consistency you like. You can go from a sheer color to one with more depth.

Turn Foundation Into Concealer

Using mineral makeup recipes you can take your liquid foundation and turn it into the perfect makeup concealer in just seconds. This is a super simple recipe combined with a makeup artist technique to get a flawless makeup look.

Take a little of your favorite liquid foundation and pour it into the palm of your hand. Now add a "pinch" of your minerals to it. The addition of the pigment will make your foundation more opaque and give you better coverages. It's a great way to make your own cosmetics concealer.

Simple Tip
To make your minerals give more coverage in an instant you can use this technique: Using a mist sprayer, spray your foundation brush with a very light mist. Then swipe it into your minerals. Now, apply it and buff.

When you try mineral makeup recipes like this you are essentially doing what every professional makeup artist does. They make their cosmetics work for them – You can too!
