Recently I had the opportunity to try some purminerals cosmetics. It was a blogger program that I had signed up for, and I received the products at no charge in exchange for the review. All opinions expressed are my own. Or Heather’s. But I’ll get to that in a minute.

I wanted to do this because I use “minerals” cosmetics, only I’ve never used pur. I don’t want to mention their competitors by name, but I’ve used several and liked some and disliked some. But I am always anxious to try new things and this seemed like nice stuff. As it turned out, the day the products arrived, Heather (who writes here) was at my house. I opened the box while she was here and started looking at the stuff. One of the items–the plumping lip gloss, I knew I’d never use it. I often purchase lip stuff with the best of intentions, but I never use it. I have very small lips and think any kind of lip color looks odd on me. So I gave it to her. She said that she really liked it, likes the way it goes on. Her only complaint is that it is much too glossy for her style. If you like a glossy gloss, then this is for you.
I also received the pressed mineral foundation, the tinted moisturizer, and the pressed mineral blush. It took me a day or two to get used to a pressed mineral foundation (I had been using a loose powder) but once I did, I really like it. The tinted moisturizer–well, it’s just a bit too “tan” for my February face right now, but I like it. Once spring/summer comes and I get a bit of natural sun color it will work out great. It also has SPF in it which I like. At my age, I am concerned about wrinkles and sun damage, but at the same time like a bit of color. This fits the bill!
If you had asked me a few years ago about makeup, I really did not have a preference. I would buy whatever I could on clearance or on a deal with coupons. Now that I’m a tad older, I am getting more picky. I like that purminerals has vitamins in it, retinols, lactic acids….all the stuff to help me look younger and less sleep deprived! I don’t wear makeup every day, so I am starting to lean more towards what the products have to offer, rather than just picking up the cheapest stuff. Plus, you can still find deals! I found a $20 off $60 purchase for purminerals, at savings.com.
To kick off their spring line of cosmetics, purminerals is hosting a fun giveaway. Twenty winners will get a Spring Kick-Off kit, and one grand prize winner will get a iPad!
Thank you for the chance
I think my shade might be “light”
I think I would wear the golden medium.
