Annmarie Skin Care's Minerals Multi-Purpose Foundation is the first of Annmarie's makeup products. With only four mineral ingredients, this foundation contains no toxic chemicals, preservatives or artificial colours. The four ingredients work together harmoniously to help even out skin tone and cover up imperfections without sacrificing your health.
Using Annmarie Skin Care's foundation, pigmented powders blend in seamlessly with your daily moisturiser or facial oil to create a natural liquid foundation that lasts the whole day without getting wrinkles and fine lines. This allows you to control your level of coverage, from a tinted moisturiser to a flawless finish.
Sample Kits just arrived and now available in our Be Good Organics store! Contains all 8 shades to try - Pearl, Sand, Honey, Olive, Nutmeg, Maple, Mocha & Clove - as well as a herbal facial oil for normal and combination skin with which to blend the foundations with. Find the shade (or shades) that best suits your skin tone and use additional colors to highlight, bronze, or as eye shadows!
You can use Minerals Multi-Purpose Foundation two ways.
1. Combined with your skin care routine. Tap: Take a small pea sized amount of foundation in the palm of your hand. Pump: Add 1-2 pumps of your favourite facial serum or facial oil. Blend: Mix in your hand, then apply to your face till blended in. Use more powder to create a more full-coverage foundation, or less powder (and more oil) for more of a tinted moisturiser look.
2. If you prefer a dry foundation, you can use a brush to apply Minerals by itself. Moisturise: Apply your favorite facial serum, facial oil, or other moisturize to prep and nourish your skin. Tap: Tap a small pea-sized amount of mineral powder into the palm of your hand. Brush: Use a clean makeup brush to apply the powder over your entire face. For a dewy look, finish by massaging in some facial oil along your cheek bones.
“This foundation is perfection... it creates the perfect coverage, dewy finish makeup you can find. Combining the pure oils with your mineral powder = brilliance. It doesn’t get more pure than that – oh, and no (synthetic/chemical) preservatives!"
- Kate, Living Pretty Naturally (Norway)
“The tone that these minerals provide (when mixed with the oil) is perfect for my skin. They have just the right amount of a natural glowy look that they do not make your skin look completely matte... I can’t think of a bad thing about this mineral makeup.”
- Jesica Salyer, Run On Organic (United States)

Agar is a red seaweed extract used as a vegetarian gelatine and thickening agent in food. While mainly known for its use as highly effective gelling agent, it is also very healthy and high in nutrition.
Agar is a Malay word that means 'jelly'. Pacific Harvest's Agar is an extract made from several different red seaweeds belonging to the botanical family called gelidium. The jelly is flavourless, odourless and colourless, which makes agar an unusual product with endless possibilities.
Add 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of agar powder per cup of liquid and heat to dissolve. Cool to thicken.
Can be used in exactly the same way as gelatine but must be prepared in a certain way. Before using agar in a recipe, the powder must be allowed to re-hydrate & dissolve in a liquid and then simmered for several minutes before setting. The product is superior to gelatine as it doesn't melt easily in warm weather and has a firmer texture. Agar also harmonises the texture of an uneven blend.
100% Agar dried sea vegetable - free of additives.
"I had some recipes that required agar agar powder. This product worked perfectly. That's all I can ask!"
- Kevin Strnad (USA)
"I use this to make vegan cheese from almond milk. Delicious! This is my first time using agar powder; it is now a staple in my kitchen."
Doug and Louise Fawcett bought Pacific Harvest in 2002 with the idea of making sea vegetables a more integral part of Western cooking with a focus equally on the superfood aspects of seaweed as well as providing a great taste experience.
New Zealand based Pacific Harvest supplies fine seaweed which are made in small and high quality batches. Their types of seaweed from New Zealand include Karengo (NZ Nori) , Agar and Kelp. All of the sea vegetables are selected and hand-harvested by professionals that have made a career of harvesting seaweed. This process is undertaken in areas of New Zealand where nature has remained pristine and free of contaminants.
This unique brow pencil formula from our favourite range of Ere Perez natural makeup glides on smoothly to fill in or define eyebrows. Its versatility suits people with a wide range of natural hair colours, from blonde to brown and right through to pitch black. You can enhance the colour by simply applying it more lightly or heavily depending on the look you want to achieve.
It dries naturally and beautifully, and the brush included allows you to comb the browns to distribute the colour evenly.
Apply as you would your normal eyebrow pencil, and prepare yourself for beautiful naturally defined eyebrows. Increase or decrease the colour to match your hair and skin tones by applying more or less as you like.
Gently remove with eye makeup remover or almond oil using an organic cotton pad dampened with water.
"Ere Perez's Almond Oil Brow Pencil is a realistic shade that doesn’t make my eyebrows appear obviously filled in. I found the texture of the pencil to be quite creamy which allowed me to draw a rough guide to where I was filling and then tidy the hairs into place with the brush on the lid."
- Kimberly Nissen (Australia)
"I absolutely love this brow pencil - it’s the perfect shade for my blonde brows. You only need to apply a little bit and it fills in your brows beautifully and looks super natural. I also have friends who use the exact same shade but just apply more and it matches their skin and hair tones brilliantly too. And of course like all our beauty products, no animal testing!"
- Buffy Ellen, founder of begoodorganics.com (Auckland, New Zealand)
