Making Mineral Makeup with a Blender

Hi Makeup Lovers! This time we are going to make our mineral makeup with a blender!

Usually a blender is used when you make a bigger batch but we are using only a small amount of powder as this is just a demonstration. So shall we start?:)


Put all the base powder into the blending cup just like you would do with the mortar.

As you can see there is a difference in colour in the two kinds of powder in the cup. The one in the lower part of the picture is a bit yellow. That is just how the colour of titanium dioxide is. So do not worry and think your titanium dioxide has expired when you see the colour difference.

Afterwards, Add the iron oxides according to the skin colour you are creating. I am making one with a heavy yellow undertone and hence the bigger amount of yellow iron oxide. Be aware of the amount of iron oxide you use as it is a very sensitive ingredient in your makeup. A tiny bit of it can change the tone drastically so make sure you think very carefully before you add more or you risk wasting a whole batch of base powder and iron oxide.

## One good tip is that you can mix the base powder with the iron oxide in the cup by hand before you start blending it as that can further avoid streaking. ##

 

Next, Blend away!

 

 

Make sure you blend long enough to have the iron oxide completely ground or there will be streaks of uneven colours left on your face when applyiong your foundation. The total blending time would be around 4 minutes for me as I'd like to make sure everything is blended well enough. Make sure you stop your blender in between the 4 minutes to shake the cup to ensure even blending of the powder and to avoid overheating your blender.

~OK. Times up!~

 

 ## DO NOT OPEN the cup until letting it set for a few minutes after the blending otherwise you will see all your makeup dust flying everywhere~!##

 



This is how the end product is. You can see that it is very nicely blended. Now you can use a clean brush to gently brush off the powder from the side of the cup and put it in your favourite jar!
