Application
On clean dry skin, apply Tattoo Camo Concealer paste to your tattoo (multiple layers may be needed).
Gently cover with Tattoo Camo Setting Powder and shake off any excess.
Spray Tattoo Camo Magic Shield evenly on area about 25 cm to 30 cm from skin, creating a breathable, water and smudge resistant barrier
Removal
Simply use the oil free Tattoo Camo Remover Tonic on a cotton pad to wipe off
Helpful Hints
• Depending on the colours of your tattoo artwork, building up several layers of the concealer could be necessary to cover up the tattoo
• Smooth concealer paste over tattoo and blend edges with a sponge
• If necessary add an additional layer by using your fingertips, dabbing the concealer over the tattoo
• When completely dry, apply setting powder with a makeup brush. Shake or blow off any excess.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Make sure you are happy with the coverage of the concealer before applying the setting powder.
Once you put the setting powder on you CANNOT put more concealer over the top of the powder as it sets the concealer and will ball up and come off the skin.

I go wild for a natural, minimal makeup look. To me, women are the most beautiful when they allow their inner beauty to shine :)
The “no makeup” look is a favorite of mine, and one that has taken me many years to perfectly accomplish. Eyes, in particular, are brightened when they simply have a subtle flash of natural looking shine and shimmer. It’s all about that transparent glow, radiant texture - very even and natural.
For eyes that are naturally illuminated, look no further than my magical array of barely-there eye shadows!
These earthy, light tones and sparkling nudes add just the perfect amount of polish to your eyes, without being too heavy or dramatic. Ideal for daytime :)
On the matte/pearl side, the following shades are my top picks:
FREEDOM - an earthy nude shade has a beautiful pearl luster to naturally illuminate your eyes.
CARDAMOM - like the sands of the beach with pearl like effects.
MY PLACE - this sophisticated shade is a lovely deep taupe with beautiful brown undertones.
If you’re looking for an exciting dash of sparkly shimmer, the following shades are my top picks:
ALL SPICE - a soft neutral pink champagne laced with delicate white shimmer.
SPIRITUAL SHIMMER - a soft subtle white shimmers abound in this ever so wearable nude eye shadow.
JANE EYRE - a soft, demure pink beige with a hint of sparkle.
Just like with any eyeshadow, follow these simple application instructions for a look that is striking and glamorous.
1. Apply a sheer wash of eyeshadow to your crease, layering color should you prefer a bolder look.
2. Continue application to the outer corner and lower lashline.

I thought that it would be a fun project to customize a makeup look for each fabulous age group that uses Everyday Minerals, and hopefully - depending on what age group you currently find yourself in - you can make good use of my suggestions!
For the fantastic ladies in their 40’s, this is for you.
You’ve enjoyed the self-discovery and exploration of your 20’s, the confidence and sassyness of your 30’s, and are now in your 40’s. I’m all for makeup looks that embrace warm metallics such as bronze and copper in this stage of life - they can warm up your skin tone and are as glamorous as they are elegant. These shades can be paired with everything from a chic cocktail dress for a night out to a casual ensemble of jeans and flats on the weekend... their versatility is truly remarkable. I leave it to you to rock these shades, my wonderful 40’s gals!
FINISHING DUST - This magical dust is a shine-fighter that can be extremely useful for those who develop oily skin in their 40’s. This translucent powder serves to set your makeup and get rid of excess shine.
EVERYDAY BRONZER - I don’t need to tell you that the prolonged sun exposure that you most likely experienced in your teens and 20’s was very damaging to your skin - in your 40’s, you know better. Fake it with this fab bronzer... it provides you with the appearance of a bronze goddess without the sun’s harmful rays!
ALL SMILES BLUSH - I love this rosy matte peach shade paired with any of the following metallic bronze/copper eye shadows!
I DO DECLARE EYE SHADOW - Like a steaming cup of cocoa on a cold day, this sparkling copper shade has rich dark brown hues that will warm up your eyes.
MIDNIGHT MYSTERY EYE SHADOW - Coppery deep undertones with splashes of gold.
FLOURISH EYE SHADOW - A blossoming bronze latticework of glistening shimmer.

It’s a fact... every girl (me included!) wants to have glowing, naturally luminous skin. Unfortunately, due to things we can’t control like dirt in the air and free radicals, sometimes our skin looks less than stellar. Coming home after a long day and realizing your skin looks dull is just the worst!
That is why my Lucent Face Powders are so amazing... they can instantly brighten and transform your skin in no time. My Lucent Face Powders are some of the most popular EM products, and minimize shine as they illuminate your skin. Their light reflecting properties will give you a radiant glow in no time! Which shade is your fave?
We have Pearl Beige (a neutral shade perfect for those with Fair to Light skin) andNatural (a perfect shade for those with Light to Medium skin tones), in addition to Wet Sand (a neutral sprinkle of shimmer that can be used on all skin tones) and Dusty Miller (a very pale peachy pink with a hint of sparkle that can be used on all skin tones). One of the most popular is Viki’s Radiant Creation, which was created by an Everyday Minerals customer and is a beige shade with a hint of sparkly pink that is perfect for Light to Medium skin tones. Or, if you’re feeling tickled pink, try Light Pink - just as the name says, it’s a luminous soft pink face color with a subtle shimmer. To test out the colours why not try our Glow Kit
The key to my Lucent Face Powders is where to apply them to provide the maximum amount of WOW! Through my experience, the following “face places” are the best to naturally create glowing skin:
- Middle of forehead and temples
- Inner corners of eyes
- Along the center of nose and on the tip of the nose
- Chin
- Along the cheekbones
- Along the jawline
These places will give your face definition and a natural contour.
Another fab product? My Luminizing Sunlight Powder.
This product provides less shimmer and more anti-shine qualities... it’s yellow based mineral formula also conceals the appearance of redness and gives added subtleties of sheen. It’s totally translucent and is perfect to set your makeup!
Do you have any luminous tips to share, ladies?

Every Tattoo Camo Kit has an "Instructions" insert. These easy and simple to follow instructions make applying the concealer a hassle free procedure. After a quick application you are "Tattoo Free"!
Does it rub off?
Not with this easy smudge & rubbing off protection! And with just a few sprays of our Shield Spray mist and you are set for the day!. (Avoid eyes and mouth). This also helps with protecting your clothes.
Is Tattoo Camo water & transpiration resistant?
Yes, it certainly is. Even swimming or bathing hardly effects it. Your tattoo will be covered the whole day. At the end of the day you simply wipe it off with our gentle, yet highly effective Remover Tonic.
It does not harm or fade your tattoo.
What is Remover Tonic?
This oil-free tonic gently and effectively dissolves all traces of your Tattoo Camo concealer. Dampen a cotton pad with the Remover Tonic and effortless wipe off the cover. All you are left with is a perfectly clean tattoo, with no oily residue.
- Non Allergenic
- Oil Free
- Fragrance Free
- Suitable for all Skin Types

Is Tattoo Camo only for tattoo coverage?
Tattoo Camo has also proven to provide excellent coverage for skin blemishes, scars, birthmarks, acne scars and old-age spots. For optimal satisfaction use a combination of lighter and darker shades.
