Sick of getting your mineral foundation powder everywhere? Well you can turn your favourite face cream into a foundation with the help of geishaface mineral foundation powder!

Simply use the ratio of 1/5 w/w (example 1g of powder in 5 g of lotion/cream) and mix well using a spatula. So with say the 'me' colour shimmer powder foundation you get the same look and shimmer but with a cream foundation! Try to just use a normal creme, and avoid anti-aging creams. The powder is pretty inert, but god knows what these guys put in these creams! A nice basic non scented lotion or creme for a thicker foundation. Increase the ratio of powder to base to get a more intense coverage. This should work with all mineral foundations that are made and blended well, and should last 12 months depending on the lotion/creme used!

After an evening of experimenting, a good medium coverage try 2/5 w/w and to conceal blemishes a whopping 3/5 w/w ratio. You can guess this and also blend just a bit of powder in your hand with a brush.
