The Shine team's been in high gear working our booth at IBS but that doesn't mean we haven't taken time to check out some of the hottest up-and-coming products in the biz! With the splash Bare Escentuals made on the scene earlier this year, "Mineral Makeup" has become a beauty buzz term and one of the best brands we discovered on the show floor is Micabella Cosmetics. With a motto that reads "Where Nature and Beauty Collide," Micabella's all-natural ingredients are free of dyes, preservatives, and oils, and are gentle yet effective enough to use on even the most sensitive skin. And it's not just empty calories: all products are packed with antioxidants that protect and help heal skin from damage.
Micabella's foundation goes on smooth as silk with just a few sprinkles of powder and some quick brushes and blending (no primer needed). Need more coverage? Apply as necessary without worrying that it'll appear caked: the powder is so fine that it layers like a blush and feels just as light. It's been three days straight of using it now, and not only are we still well-covered at the end of the day, but the product's ability to work in tandem with the oils in your skin gives you a soft glow, making the only shine you need to worry about is yours truly ;-)
