This is a lovely, sheer blush to brighten and enliven the cheeks. It is in the "cool" range, designed for lighter skin tones. In this recipe, a "scoop" is 1/8 level teaspoon. Yield: 1/2 teaspoon (a lot of blush!) Prep Time: 10 minutes Price Category: 2 Difficulty Level: 1 Shelf Life: Indefinite
Ingredients: 2 level scoops Bordeaux mica 1 level scoop Oriental beige mica 1/2 level scoop Splendid blue mica
Blending Procedure: - Place all ingredients in a small bowl and thoroughly mix them with a spatula, spoon or popsicle stick. Be sure to remove all lumps of unblended color. You may wish to use a clean coffee grinder to break up the mica into the smallest particles. (Wash the grinder thoroughly after use and set it aside for mineral makeup only.)
- Empty the finished blend into a small jar, preferably a sifter jar for easy dispensing. Cap and label. To use, gently touch the tip of a cotton ball or blush brush into the powder and tap off excess. Brush evenly onto cheeks.
- For a warmer colored blush, replace Bordeaux mica with Sienna fine mica. For a darker blush, replace Splendid blue mica with Blackstar red mica.
- Note: since mica suppliers assign different names for the same colors of mica, to avoid confusion, Monave supplied mica is recommended for this recipe.
