I happen to be a fan of Bare Minerals cosmetics, and I came across their outlet store in Las Vegas. This SPF 30 Natural Sunsreen ended up in my shopping bag, which proved to be a wonderful substitute to the traditional chemical loaded creams out there. It also doubles as a perfect mineral face powder, so there's no need for other foundations or powders with this fab sunblock.
It comes in a handy applicator, where the powder is neatly packed inside of the tube making the application easy. Otherwise it is buffed on face and body as any other mineral powder with circular motion.
I couldn't resist to add some new color cosmetics to my growing Bare Minerals collection. The smaller container is a brow color in pale/ash blonde hue. It is very easy to fill in the eye brows with this light powder for a subtle look, all you need is a slanted brow brush. This can be applied wet or dry, depending how deep of shade you want to achieve.
The bigger container is a limite edition blush, in a lovely peach shade called Chuckle. It has a little bit of shimmer, and it is a perfect pair for sun-kissed cheeks.

Nice to find there is an alternative to the smelly sunblock lotions.
