Not sure what colour you want?

To select your shade or shades you first need to determine if you are Dark, Warm or Cool. Dark would be for women with darker skin. 1 Foundations are lightest… 2 Foundations are medium… 3 and 4 Foundations are darkest.

If you are undecided if you are Warm or Cool, here are some helpful hints from Royal Crown Diamond, April Pointer:
1. Check Your Veins - Push your sleeves up and look at the veins on the inside of your wrist. Are they blue or green? If they look more blue, you likely have cool undertones. If the veins look greenish, you’re warm.
2. The Jewelry Trick - Think about whether you look better in silver or gold jewelry Typically, ladies with cool undertones look better in silver and platinum metals, and warm-toned women look better in gold.
3. The Neutral Test - Think about what neutral shades flatter you best. Does your skin, eyes, and face look better in bright white and black hues, or ivory, off-whites, and brown/tan shades? The first means you’re probably cool-toned, and the latter, warm.
4. Eye and Hair Colour - Your natural eye and hair colors can help figure out your coloring. Customarily, cool people have eyes that are blue, gray, or green and have blond, brown, or black hair with blue, silver, violet and ash undertones. Conversely, warm-toned women usually have brown, amber, or hazel eyes with strawberry blond, red, brown, or black hair. Their hair tends to have gold, red, orange, or yellow undertones.
5. The Sun’s Effects - When you’re out in the sun, does your skin turn a golden-brown, or does it burn and turn pink first? If you fit into the first category, you’re warm-toned, while cool tones tend to burn.



Still not sure?

Here are some more tips:
If you know your seasonal colors, then this may help you.
Basically, there are light and dark cools and light and dark warms. Light and dark cools are summer and winters.
Winters are dark cools and tend to have rich and intense hair and eye colors and look great in bolder shades like black and red.
Summers are light cools and look best in pastel shades like rose, periwinkle and sage. Your coloring tends to be more delicate.
Autumns are dark warms and look beautiful in the fall colors of moss, rust and terracotta. Think about leaves and spices.
Springs are light warms. Best colors are ones that match our eyes but we love to wear turquoise, watermelon and salmon.
One more tip! Gold is warm and Silver is cool. If you have a piece of fabric, like a shawl, wrap yourself in it and see which one makes you look better. Which color evens out your skin tones and make your eyes stand out?
What foundation tone you are?

** Don’t be afraid to mix foundation colors! If a 3 is too dark, mix it with a 1 to lighten it up. Having multiple foundation colors works well so you can adjust your color for summer (when you’re tanner) and winter (when you’re more fair).
** Don’t match the foundation color on the arm or neck. Match it on the jawline/neck. If it blends, you’ve got it! You don’t want to see it! ** If you have hyperpigmentation or uneven skin tone, go one shade darker. It’s OK to do multiple layers to get the coverage you need!

The Misting Spray
When I first saw the Misting Spray I honestly wasn't sure what it was for. Here’s why it’s crucial, you need your brush to be a little wet to pick up the minerals and apply them to your face.


HOW TO USE:
Spray 2-3 pumps of Misting Spray onto a makeup brush and gently wipe off any excess moisture on the back of your hand. Pick up mineral makeup using the brush. Apply mineral makeup to your face in desired area and reapply as needed.
The Misting Spray is made with pure essential oils, trace minerals, and entirely plant-based ingredients. The Misting Spray gives you more thorough foundation coverage, all while nourishing and freshening your skin. The aloe is what gives it the silky finish!
Please note that The Misting Spray is NOT a setting spray. There’s no need to set mineral makeup. It sets as it dries after you apply it wet from misting your brushes before application. Don’t spray the Misting Spray on your face or your makeup will look spotty!

Young Living Day - January 2018


It's Young Living Day!!! 
We are so excited about all the new products ... and here they are ...

Young Living have bought us Savvy Minerals!
A wonderful new range of make up!


We believe that you have a right to know what you're putting on your skin, and how it can affect your health. We also believe you should still have the option to look the way YOU feel most beautiful without layering toxins on your skin.

How many chemicals do you think you use every day in your beauty routine? 5, 10, 50? Would you be surprised to hear the average woman applies between 200 and 500 chemicals daily, with 80 of those being before breakfast? All of the lotions and potions we use in the morning, including MAKEUP, are some of the biggest culprits for household toxins. The skin is the largest organ and what we apply to our skin will be absorbed into our bloodstream and circulated throughout the entire body.

OK, so toxins are out… what can you use instead? Enter Savvy Minerals Makeup! This is the answer! With Savvy Minerals, our health does not have to be compromised for beauty.
Beauty lies in health, not in makeup. A healthy body on the inside AND the outside is what radiates true beauty and provides a canvas for creativity. The goal of Savvy Minerals by Young Living is to empower women in their own unique and natural beauty.

Savvy Minerals are completely FREE from talc, bismuth, parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals, nanoparticles, synthetic fragrances, synthetic colors to and cheap, synthetic fillers. They offer everything from foundation, blush, bronzer, eye shadows, lip stick and lip glosses- and they are just getting started! More incredible products will be released over the next year!


Savvy Minerals by Young Living™ was formulated to include only the most pristine ingredients.
Savvy Minerals is about never having to compromise quality for beauty. Every Savvy Minerals product was carefully crafted so you can feel fabulous about yourself and what you’re putting on your skin. Savvy Minerals products are developed with an unwavering standard of purity and quality, giving you a full variety of naturally derived products made without cheap fillers or synthetics. Wherever life takes you, Savvy Minerals is here to empower you to be the woman you want to be.


+ Savvy Minerals are free from: talc, lead, bismuth, mineral oil, parabens, lead, gluten and mercury!
+ Savvy Minerals are cruelty-free and mostly vegan (the lipsticks and lip glosses have beeswax so they are not considered vegan).
+ Savvy Minerals uses Arrowroot Powder and Kaolin Clay. Both are calming to the skin, help to absorb excess oil and moisture on the skin and make the skin feel silky smooth. This is important because most mineral makeup uses bismuth, which is a metal mineral that - when worked into the pores - aggravates the pores and causes irritation and breakouts.
+ Savvy Minerals last ALL DAY LONG… seriously, ALL DAY LONG! You’ll look as fresh at midnight as you did at 9 a.m.!

We are so in love with the few bits we have already tried and can't wait to share more with you over the next week! Check back as we will be posting about the whole range!

Young Living also released a couple of gorgeous oils!

Blue Tansy

Blue tansy essential oil is steam distilled from the flowering plant and has a slightly sweet, herbaceous aroma. It has also been called Moroccan chamomile, and is rich in sesquiterpenes similar to those found in German chamomile.

Lemon Myrtle
The fresh aroma of Lemon Myrtle is uplifting and refreshing, which may help clear the mind.
