It’s always exciting to see what’s out there in the beauty and fashion world and makeup is no exception. I love trying new makeup, it just adds a bit of excitement to my morning routine to open a new box or bottle, it’s a little like that new car smell but for your bathroom!

A few years ago I was in search of a new foundation and powder. My skin had changed as I got older and what I was using wasn’t working anymore. I switched to mineral powder for both and have never looked back. I’ve always been impressed by the coverage and the natural look it offers. However it seems my skin is changing once again because it is starting to wear off by mid-day. So I have been on the lookout to try something new and that’s why I was excited about Mineral Fusion Primer and Foundation.
As a reader of 2 Wired 2 Tired you all know that I love products with a purpose as well as anything to do with giving back. I was very interested to learn about Mineral Fusion’s Minerals On A Mission. Mineral Fusion is very proud partners with the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence (NCADV). The NCADV is a motivated organization that directly supports survivors of domestic violence, and operates a national campaign to raise awareness of this growing problem.
Minearal Fusion donates a portion of their sales to support the organization’s mission and they donate products to the NCADV’s network of shelters.
Isn’t that wonderful? On top of all that Mineral Fusion is now the #1 natural cosmetic brand proudly offering a smarter makeup which includes selecting effective natural ingredients, as well as making their products free of gluten, parabens, talc, artificial colors, synthetic fragrances, SLS, and phthalates. They never conduct animal testing, and never will, nor do they ask others to do so. They are committed to sustainability and utilize wind power, soy inks, packaging from recycled materials and packaging that is recyclable.
After reading all this I couldn’t wait to give the makeup a try!
Immediately the name of the primer caught my eye. I like the matte look so this was perfect. I also like that it states that it, “absorbs oils and minimizes pores.”
The back of the box details its benefits and how some of the ingredients work.
While this didn’t work for me, the good news is everyone’s skin is different, and it may work wonders for you.
Next up was the Mineral Fusion Minerals On A Mission Pressed Powder Foundation.
This looked wonderful and like just what I was looking for. I was sent a number of different shades which was nice. It’s great to see that they offer such a large variety of colors.
I was happy to see that the box states it offers, ” A flawless coverage with a natural finish.”
I opened up the Warm 1 and patted it onto my face. I was very pleased with the results!
As you can see it offers lovely natural matte coverage and eliminates any shine. The color is great too. It adds a nice warm tone to my skin without being too much. I need that little bit of help after the long winter we’ve had here in Michigan!
I also like the compact the powder comes in. It’s a nice shade of brown and can easily slip into a purse. My favorite feature though (other than the powder itself!) is the nice large mirror which makes it easy to apply.
I recommend Mineral Fusion to those looking to try a new makeup line. The Pressed Powder is wonderful and I was excited to see it’s available at Whole Foods! I love shopping there and will now be adding Mineral Fusion makeup to my shopping list.
Great review! I love trying new makeup and I love when companies give back.
I love companies that give back. These products sound like just what I am looking for! Thank you for the great review.
I’ve Always Wanted To Try The Mineral Foundations. I Love Companies That Support Organizations That Make A Difference.

Thanks for such a great review…. you did a great job. very specific!
Hmmm. I’ll leave this one to the Mrs.
I love trying new make ups. This looks so natural!
I have never used a mineral powder or a pressed powder foundation, I would really love to try this out. It is great that part of the proceeds goes to help out others.
This makeup sounds like one I just may have to try. Really informative review, and I do like that they have partnered with National Coalition Against Domestic Violence and help support this worthy cause.
I like the 2 in 1 powder it looks so matte and clean. A great shade for you.
I really love your look, the matte is beautiful. I want to try this makeup, especially their mattifying primer. It sounds exactly what I need :)
So pretty! I need some new makeup!
You are really pretty and so young! I love Minerals type products because they go on the skin and look so natural. I like the primer and foundation brand in this post. I will have to try it out!
First, may I say that you look beautiful! I love to wear mineral makeup when I can find one that works because it is so much better for my sensitive skin. I had no idea you could find this at whole foods and it is awesome that they support domestic violence.
Looks good on your skin! It’s hard to find make up that looks natural on my skin. I need to try this, Ask if they will let you do a giveaway (lol)
i love how natural it is. it looks amazing on too!
I love trying new makeup and skincare brands, mu favorite! The Mineral Fusion Minerals On A Mission Pressed Powder Foundation would be my favorite as well, i love powder that goes on light with a natural look, always good to have something like this for summer weather, which less is always more.
Your skin looks gorgeous! I haven’t used a power in awhile.
Looks like a nice brand. I would love to try the pressed powder.
