Natural and shimmery mineral makeup!
2011-01-06 20:23:00 Ancient Stones makeup has a different twist on mineral makeup, I was quite pleased when I received my samples. Their point of difference seems to be an all day fresh look with no smudging and products that illuminate your skin. So here is my experience with the products. I tested their eyeshadow, powder foundation, super soft focus and setting spray. I LOVE the sparkle in the eye shadow - it glimmers, but is very subtle once applied. They asked for my picture prior to sending my samples....and they did a great job of "picking" eyeshadow colors for my sample - they were a perfect fit for my eyes and skin tone. I will say - be careful opening the little jars. I spilled mine a bit because I was not paying attention.....oops. The super soft focus is a white powder that you put on before anything else that acts as a natural sun shield...pretty cool. I could not tell it was on except for some shimmer from the powder. I do think that I pers...

Other research has been interpreted as showing ...
