Christopher Drummond Beauty- A Good Bet for Luxury Minerals Makeup!

I met the charming Christopher Drummond at Shecky's Girls Night Out last fall. Apparently, I had the honor of being the very first person to test out his line as it launched in public at this event. Drummond is a makeup artist whose new line of patent pending cosmetic products have been used on models and celebrities, and contain all natural, organic-based and vegan ingredients. His luxurious product line of mineral makeup will appeal to women who want something effective, that also feels special.

I tried the Saúde Pele Radiance Booster $85.00 a loose, creamy "finishing" powder you can apply over bare skin, or over a foundation. It's infused with antioxidants Açai, soy isoflavones and boswellia serrata. The velvety powder comes in a dark violet jar that helps prolong the life of the powder by also blocking out UV light, but a special touch is the small, plastic travel container with sifter top, application pad, and even a spatula to move the product from one jar to the other. berry. About the unique name: Christopher told me: "I wanted the name and the image of the product to reflect the feel of being in Brazil...I also wanted the name to reflect that it is good for your skin, and that it makes your skin look healthy. I checked into Portuguese words and combined two together: Saude, which means 'healthy', and Pele, which means 'skin.' So, technically, the name means 'healthy skin' in Portuguese."

...make sense to me!

The best way to apply the loose minerals is with the very lovely, synthetic, Flat Top Brush $19.95 that picks up just the right amount of powder minerals, and feels amazingly ilky on your skin. For more coverage, splurge a bit on the Veludo Velvet Foundation $65.00 that comes in six sheer shades from light to dark, and gives your skin a flawless but natural, finish. This powder minerals foundation also comes in a violet jar with travel accessories. This excellent, long-wearing foundation is water, perspiration and transfer resistant, and contains a natural sunscreen (you will still want to wear sunblock if you're out in the sun more than a short while) and will be appropriate even for people with very sensitive skin. I really like these products, even though for clutzes, loose powder can be tricky.

Christopher Drummond Beauty also offers a Concealer $22.50 in light, medium and dark. When it comes to concealer, I feel safer using a solid product, but if you are careful and use a small, synthetic brush to apply it, it's fine. Soon to be launched are color minerals for eyes and a really great Lip Gloss $17.50 in a gorgeous, sheer, shimmery copper called:"Carnival" (made my lips look and feel great). I tested these at Sheckys Girls Night Out and really liked them. TIP: If you want to try a high-end minerals makeup but aren't sure if it's really for you, Christopher Drummond Beauty offers a Sample $4.99 of this foundation.
