Hello Dolls!
Today I am reviewing a product from the cruelty free and organic make-up brand Inika. It is a finely milled loose mineral powder which offers SPF 20 sun protection.
 |
| Shade: Nurture |
You get 8g of the loose powder which is packaged in a plastic jar with a sifter top. The packaging is basic but functional, although I would fault it for dispensing too much product making it not hugely travel friendly.
This is how the product itself is described:
"Inika Mineral Foundations act as a concealer, foundation and powder all in one. With exceptional performance and pure ingredients, Inika foundations provide a flawless finish and a natural, radiant look without clogging pores or irritating the skin.
Offering natural sun protection with SPF20 to guard against damaging ultra-violet rays, Inika foundations provide superior coverage and are suitable for ALL ages, skin tones and skin types.
Inika minerals are also very resistant to water and a great option for those who like to wear makeup when exercising, going to the beach or swimming.
Inika is suitable for those with allergies, chemical sensitivities, rosacea, acne, scarring, pigmentation, and for people who have just undergone cosmetic facial treatments. With Inika foundations you will always look fabulous and won't even feel as though you are wearing makeup! "
The product is described as three in one, you can use it as a foundation, concealer or setting powder. It acts beautifully as a foundation on freshly moisturised skin. It offers sheer-medium coverage which nicely covers redness on the skin and helps disguise blemishes. You can also use a fluffy concealer brush to apply more product under the eyes to cover dark circles and blemishes. Over all it offers a lovely, workable coverage which glides over the skin and minimises pores. It also makes the skin look fresher and more "awake".
This product is PERFECT for sensitive skin or people who suffer heavily from breakouts. There are no skin clogging silicones or heavy pigments in this product, just natural mineral pigments.
They have a range of roughly eight shades and the one pictured is called Nurture, which should be a good match for most medium caucasian skin tones.
As a make-up artist I love using this product for screen make-up and both female and male make-ups as it looks undetectable on camera.
You can see from this photo what a soft, luminous finish it gives the skin, it doesn't fully cover extreme redness but using a light concealer first would eliminate this.
Overall I absolutely love this product! You can buy it HERE from the lovely people at www.mypure.co.uk
