Contouring with ECO minerals ALCHEMY Hi Light Creme and ECO EXOTIC Bronzer

Here is a fabulous picture from that shows the beautiful effect of using products to hi light and define eyes, cheeks, nose and jawline.  This is super easy (when you know how) and definitely simple enough for your daily ECO ritual.

Apart from accentuating your natural features and beauty...what i love the MOST about this is that it is not a "made up" look.


General notes on contouring and hi lighting:
When you highlight an area by adding light to it, you also want to "low light" an aspect of the same feature/area to give contrast.  For example, you would use Alchemy Hi Light Creme to Hi light and area and ECO Exotic Bronzer to low light an area.

TOOLS: I use a large concealer brush to apply Alchemy Hi Light Creme and the ECO minerals supersoft kabuki brush is narrow enough to be used to apply your ECO exotic bronzer as a contour or low light product.

CHEEKS: to accentuate cheekbones apply ECO Exotic Bronzer below the cheekbone, in the hollow of the cheek.  Apply Alchemy Hi light creme along the top of the cheekbone (apply after your ECO minerals mineral foundation and blend well)

EYES: For a beautiful lift and definition to your eyes, use ECO Exotic Bronzer and apply to the crease of the eyelid and blend well.  Now apply Alchemy Hi Light Creme along the brow bone (beneath the outer brow).

If you prefer to use a powder to hi light - checkout ECO minerals White Light Illuminate - this gorgeous silky smooth illuminate is easy to use and suited to fair complexions.

ECO Minerals, beautiful Byron Bay & excessive packaging

I guess it is not surprising that one of the most purest, natural and ECO friendly mineral makeup would be a Byron Bay brand!
Bay has had an alternative, "hippie" and eco thing going on since around the 1960s when there were protests held against whale catching. This was long before the rest of the world caught on to sustainable living.
Living in such an eco-conscious place has inspired many great ECO brands which are marketed to Australia and the world....perhaps because of the support of like minded people and the creative and enterprising nature of people living in this area.
Today we are delighted that people from all walks of life, all ages and living all over the world instantly recognise the benefits to the planet of reducing packaging - and of course using a natural product that is chemical and cruelty free.
Maybe just yourself you will save on a couple of hundred sifter jars going to landfill....but with thousands of customers - this all adds up to a significant decrease in polluting materials and landfill.
Perhaps the most exciting thing for us at ECO Minerals is the MESSAGE...things can be done differently and people are willing to put in the extra energy to refill a container.
Let's hope that this message reaches and inspires the larger companies world wide to offer customer ECO friendly refills.
Something simple that we can all do every day that COUNTS is to consider the amount and type of packaging on a product...this is a helpful link - even better, drop companies an email with your comments and feelings - even suggestions x x x
