application basics
• Cleanse and moisturize your face. Allow your moisturizer and any other treatment products to become dry to the
touch.

• Unscrew the jar lid; hold the sifter with one hand while gently lifting the clear sifter label at an angle with your other
hand. Once the sifter label is removed, screw the lid back onto the jar and gently shake jar to dispense the
foundation into the sifter.
• Remove the lid and lightly dip your Mary Kay ® Mineral Foundation Brush into the powder and tap against the rim of
the jar to remove excess product. You do not need to use all the powder that is in the sifter – a little goes a long way.
• Swirl the Mary Kay ® Mineral Foundation Brush inside the lid so that the powder is worked into the bristles.
• To apply, start in the center of the face and work your way out on either side toward the hairline and along the
jawline, blending well.
• For light, natural coverage, a single light layer should suffice. For increased coverage, repeat the application process,
applying the foundation in light layers until you reach your desired coverage level.
need to know
• When you’re first working with Mary Kay ® Mineral
Powder Foundation, it’s easy to over apply. Even if
you want maximum coverage, you’ll achieve a more
natural look with several light layers instead of one
heavy layer.
• Use a cosmetic sponge to buff away any excess
product.
• The order of application of skin care and colour
products should not change with the use of the
Mary Kay ® Mineral Powder Foundation. Follow
your normal daily skin care and makeup application
regimen. You should treat MaryKay ® Mineral
Powder Foundation as you would a regular liquid,
cream or crème-to-powder foundation.
• As with all cosmetic brushes, it’s best to clean
the Mineral Foundation Brush weekly. Wet the hair,
then squirt a mild cleanser into your palm and
sweep bristles back and forth and in a circular
motion. Rinse well. Squeeze out excess water with
a towel; reshape bristles with fingers and lay brush
with hairs extending out over a ledge to dry. Never
dry upright, as water can seep in and weaken the
handle.
