I felt myself lucky to get the chance to try my very first mineral based powder foundation , blushers and eye pigments . And tell you the truth , if we can get that special radiance with natural products then why go for harmful chemicals ????
Lumiere Loose Mineral Foundations ( In their words )
Whether you want a featherweight, light-feeling foundation that won't block pores or irritate sensitive skin, or you want a foundation that covers blemishes, rosacea, or unsightly birthmarks, our mineral foundations can help smooth out your complexion and give you the heathy glow you desire.
All of our loose mineral foundations are finely milled and have a soft, silky smooth, almost "creamy" like texture that will provide a medium to heavy buildable coverage that will meld with your skin to create a flawless natural finish as though you have no makeup on at all, just beautiful skin!
We know foundation choices can be overwhelming, trying to decide between colors and formulas. One of our savvy forum members put together a terrific foundation tutorial with charts - come check it out and join in discussions on foundations, eye colors, skin care, and more!
They have a LARGE variety of foundation types for different skin tones and have large number of shades to choose from . For their complete range of Loose Mineral Foundation , please click HERE.
Among their HUGE collection of Loose Mineral Foundation , my picks were :
What it is- Yellow & Pink undertones creating an overall "Peachy" color
Who can wear it- Mostly Caucasian women that tan naturally, using tanning beds or with spray tans. Women who were "cools" before tanning typically fall into this category.

2- Foundation Bases -
- Cashmere

Ingredients = real silk powder, serecite (colorless mica), titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, boron nitride, iron oxides
Light Medium Beige
Description

MY THOUGHTS ABOUT IT :
Although they both look same on Lumiere's website but you can see the difference in above swatches .
Light Medium Beige Veena velvet is more of a yellowish tone as compared to Light Medium Beige Cashmere.
As i mentioned earlier , these are my very first loose mineral foundations . And after reading so many reviews about mineral foundations i was so excited to give them a try . And i must say , I AM FULLY SATISFIED !
I got the quite good amount of both the mineral foundations in cute little jars . My one jar's cap was little damaged but still its working . After opening the cap you get straight to the product which makes it very difficult to use and you may waste some product every time you open it which is the only drawback of this product. I would like to have it in a specially designed mineral foundation jars having small holes in the protecting shield. ( i hope i am saying it right )
You need to apply a good amount of moisturizer under Lumiere Loose mineral foundation specially in winter season. My skin is oily , but still i needed a good amount of moisturizer to prevent it from looking cakey and dry. I would definitely recommend a dewy makeup primer beneath this foundation to get that flawless look e.g Adorn skin primer ( read my review Here ) .
But i must say , after using a mineral foundation i can clearly see the difference. It will give you that natural flawless glow and even skin tone without making you feel any thing on your skin. This feels so light on my skin and i simply loved it for that. The pigmentation is very good as well.
I mix both shades Light Medium Beige Veena velvet and Light Medium Beige Cashmere, to get that perfect looking flawless skin. And it worked for me very well . I am getting lots of compliments when i am having it on my face. And the best part is , it dint break me out at all.
My Ratings :

Lumiere Cheeks
For complete description and color range click HERE
My picks were :
Category : Peach Cheek Colors ( for complete range , click HERE )
Cheek Color : Apricot
Description:
A beautiful shade of apricot with a warm brown undertone
Category : Pink Blush Colors ( for complete range , click HERE )
Cheek Color : Cherry Blossom
Description:
A sweet muted cherry with a slight brown undertone infused with gorgeous glimmers of pink & violet
MY THOUGHTS ABOUT IT:
Highly pigmented and easy to blend , i love both the colors. As you can see from the swatches Apricot blush has more peachy tone and Cherry blossom blush has more pinkish tone . Both blushers have some light sparkles or shimmers which gives you that radiant look rather then matte finish. But this quality may turned to their biggest con during hot weather when you are already shinning from oil on your face. Well for that we have to wait till summer season. Till then i am in love with these two :)
The great thing is that You can also apply these blushers as eye colors :)

MY THOUGHTS ABOUT IT:
Great pigmentation and quite easy to blend , i love the colors. But 24 karat is my most favorite one. As you see from above swatches , all three eye colors have some sparkles or shimmers which gives you that radiant look rather then matte finish. But again as i said for the blushers , this quality may turned to their biggest con during hot weather when you are already shinning from oil on your face. Well for that we have to wait till summer season. Till then i am in love with them.
The great thing is that You can also apply Pink pearl and gold salmon as blushers :)
You can apply them wet or dry , they look great both ways. I am planning to use them more in future for my FOTDs or EOTDs :)

I have come up with the following look using Lumiere Cosmetics.
For Face I Used :
- Fair and lovely as moisturizer.
- Adorn skin primer ( read my review Here )
- Lumiere Loose Mineral Foundations ( Light Medium Beige Veena velvet and Light Medium Beige Cashmere)
- Cherry Blossom Silk blush + Gold Salmon eye color as blushers.
For Eyes I Used :
- Christine stick concealer ( as a primer )
- Cherry blossom silk blush + Pink pearl eye color + 24 Karat ( very lightly) . I have applied them with damp brush that's why they are looking less shimmery.

For Lips I Used :
- ELF mineral lipstick in rich rasberry ( review soon ).
- Maybelline Lip gloss ( review soon ).

DeleteHi this is Jen from Lumiere Cosmetics. Thank you for the review. The colors looked great on you by the way!! I just wanted to let you know that when you order makeup from our website, the jars do have filer caps inside of them. The small jars you had were the 1gram sample size jars and they do not come with a filter. I am glad you enjoyed the products. Again, they look great on you!! :-)
