pinQ® Luminous Mineral Powder

Rich, silky & made with pure mineral pigments, pinQ® Luminous Minerals help you create amazingly beautiful eyes… Whether your choice is bold bright colour or more subtle hues, you'll love how they glide on like glimmering satin.

pinQ® Luminous Minerals are incredibly versatile:

Apply them as shadows or liners….

Or even over lipstick for extra shine!

Use dry for subtle shimmering colour

Or wet for sparkling intensity!

Thought people with blue eyes shouldn’t wear blue? Or perhaps brown eyes girls should stay away from browns?

Forget the rules…..it’s all up to you! Get creative and find your perfect look!

Application:

Firstly, if you want your eyeshadow to last without creasing or smudging, it is essential to prime the eyelid area before applying.

pinQ® Finishing Veil is the secret to keeping your shadow in place for hours.
Or pinQ® Natural Mineral Foundation can work as a primer also.

For the perfect application, blending is key and your pinQ® Eye Lip Duo Brush is the perfect tool.

Using the wider end of your pinQ® Eye Lip Duo brush, choose a light base colour and apply over lid and up to brow bone.

Then apply your lid colour (usually a medium tone) and finish off with the darker contour colour under the brow bone, working towards the edge of your eye.
For a daytime look don’t be too heavy handed to go out or up too far at the edges.

Tip: Darker contour eyeshadows work wonders as eyeliners. Wet the fine tip of the pinQ® Eye Lip Duo Brush and dip in a darker eyeshadow. Line eyes as close to the upper lashes as possible from the inner corner to the outer corner, taking care not to over apply. Colour can always be toned down with a cotton tip.

PM: Now you can really get creative! Follow with liner on bottom eyes, but only line from the middle of the eye out. Smudge the bottom line with the fine tip of your pinQ® Eye Lip Duo Brush if you don't want a prominent line.

For a smokey eye, use the brush to pat in a dark eyeshadow along the upper lid and below the lid. You don't want a stark line, instead you want to blend it so it creates a blurred, smoke look.

Highlight your eyes: Nothing like some pinQ® Highlighting Dust to open up the eye and add sparkle. Wipe you brush clean and apply highlighter to the inner corner of the eye and blend to middle of the lid. Then take a small amount and dab under the middle of your eyebrow arch and work towards the edge of the eye. Pixie Dust or Angel Dust are great colours for daywear.

PM:  Diamond Dust or Heavenly Dust will add vibrance to your evening look.

Tip: A dot of pinQ®Absolute White Defining Eyeliner on the inside of the eye near the tear duct will really open up the eyes and make them look brighter. You will feel brighter too when you see how well this works!
