All about Natural MSF's

[Corvs Queen]

I know that's the A Muse collection. But, seems like some people here were confused and thinking that these newer MSF were the to replace the older MSF's. Just thought that I would shed some clarification on the subject for those that were confused.

Die Mineralize Skinfinish sind wieder da! Diesmal allerdings ohne Glanz und Glitzer sondern mit einem natürlich-matten Finish. Die mikrofeinen, seidigen mineralisierten Puder gibt es in fünf luxuriösen Goldtönen - allerdings nur so lange der Vorrat reicht. Behutsam 24 Stunden auf kleinen, runden Terrakottaziegeln im Ofen gebacken, verspricht Mineralize Skinfinish einen saften, makellosen Auftrag und einen umwerfend natürlich strahlenden Teint. Für Avant Gold wurden drei neue MAC Brushes entworfen, die eine ideale Applikation ermöglichen.

and in english......

Again there the Mineralize skin finish is! This time however without gloss and Glitzer separate with a natural-matte finish. There are the micro-fine, seidigen mineralized propellants in five luxurioesen gold tones - however only so for a long time the supply is enough. Baked, Mineralize ski finish a saften, immaculate order and upsetting a naturally radiating Teint promises carefully 24 hours on small, round Terrakottaziegeln in the furnace. For Avant gold were sketched three new MAC Brushes, which make an ideal application possible.

By the sounds of it, they're LE....sorry Sushi_Flower!

Wow, these look really pretty to me! I think they'll give glow rather than a shimmer or dewiness.... Still I can't wait for them to come out with more traditional skinfinishes in brighter shades!

 

[littlemissmagic]

i don't care if the idea is not original, personally i'm really intrigued because i'm a sucker for all things "natural-skin-enhancing" etc..

 

[SMMY]

I am a little disappointed. I would rather have had new mineralized skinfinishes. There are so many mineral foundations out there now already, but only one company makes mineralized skinfinishes. Unless the finishes are something completely unique/stellar, I'm skipping the foundations.

 

[lianna]

I think they're more for contouring and highlighting, rather than just plain old foundation or they would have the NC/NW labelling. So yeah, it does sound a bit like a powder from they way they're labelled.

Yeah, I wish they were new MSFs as well. I'm still going to check out these shimmer-free MSFs though. ​

Here are some more words translated from the page at beauty.de. Again, using a free translation website so there is some awkardness.

With the references to "contouring" I think MAC expects people to use multiples of these to add color. So you could use one that is your normal skintone, then add another for some bronze or contour effect. Just my take on it, tho. They seem to be claiming some benefit for the skin as well, see the references to vitamins and jojoba oil...

"MAC presents a new prescription for Mineralize Skinfinish in form of an extraordinarily luxurious-easy, talcum of being based and oven cheek of powder. It can both on face and on the body applied become and appears in five different shadings, that fit to all skin tone. The Innovative dispensing sets on hautbetonende minerals, that promote moreover the cell activity of the skin. Imbedded into a Mica- and silk fine talcum basis, Mineralize Skinfinish provides for subtle contours and refined emphasis. Derivatives of the vitamins A and E protect against damaging environment influences, Jojobaöl calms and maintains the skin."

I am hoping they will be foundations. Mineral foundations are very adaptable to skin tone, so most don't specify if they are warm or cool.
I plan on getting a couple either way. They look subtle enough to wear to work. I don't own any MSF's yet because I thought they would be too much for everyday wear.

I hear the word mica, so I think these babies aren't matte, but they are probably like a 'satin' e/s.... now I wanna know if they're satin-allmost-matte or satin-allmost-frost

I love the promisses made in the text above!!

My thoughts exactly. :/

 

[lara]

I couldn't say what they're meant to be used for, but I'm looking at them and thinking that I'd use them over the top of body make-up to give a satin look to shoulders and decollatage, especially on older women who don't want sheen or glitter. It all depends on how refined the mica is. If they're frosty, then I'll skip them entirely.

If they look nice in person and I could see myself using them, I'd buy the ones on the left for my kit.

 

[vicuna1]

I'm curious to see how they differ (assuming they do indeed differ) from the non-shimmer Beauty Powders like the ones in the Catherine-Icon collection. I'm crazy for Beauty Powders, and wouldn't mind one in a more translucent shade. Not that the others weren't translucent, but I can't seem to come up with the words I want. An actual skin colored Beauty Powder, I guess.

yeah like a buffed up skin "perfector"
mineral veil is that for me. like a pore eraser after all my makeup is done.
these don't seem anything like the beauty powders either,perhaps those will be for people inclined twd shimmer?
I almost always have to see irl before I can say

 

[Luxurious]

i think they're like blot powder in form of MSF.

I would love it if this is the case =)

I'm hoping they're like the beauty powder with sundressing. Which I could eat is so good.
I don't really like the MSFs all that much b/c they're SO glittery... They're a little too NSFW for me... and I'm finding that MAC sometimes forgets their clientele ain't all twentysomething... it would be nice to have something for the edging 40 demographic.

I have to agree here.
