This is not our regularly scheduled blog post. Folks, Tonia here to bring some of the most amazing announcements to our business page and here on the blog. If you have followed our page on Facebook or Instagram, you would know that we are super passionate about clean products – and even more passionate about making our own so that we can be sure they are 100% premium quality AND minimal ingredients. That’s my whole shtick – if I can, I’ll make a product with 4 or less ingredients if I’m able to.
Well, there’s this little makeup line founded by a woman we look up to and respect who saw a need that wasn’t being met. What do we want in a clean beauty product?
We want non-toxic, minimal ingredient (when possible) and we didn’t want beauty at the sacrifice or expense of our health. Now our needs are being met and all of this is available to all of us – and YOU! Gluten free, vegan friendly (with the exception of the lipstick as it contains beeswax), completely plant & mineral based make-up!
We’re going to break this down now, so without further ado!
Introducing…..
Savvy Minerals
This product was originally formulated two and a half years ago because there was a need to be filled for women who wanted to wear make up but didn’t want to compromise their health. Now, you don’t have to! Email us for information on how to order your own Savvy Minerals, now available in Canada!
Here’s my before & after full Savvy Minerals face! I’m in love.

Cool tones
For blue veins, more pink skin undertones. (Tip: Take a look at the inside of your wrists, what colour do your veins look?)
Warm tones
For green veins, more yellow skin undertones. (Tip: If you’re not sure which number to choose, start with 2. You can always add #1 if it’s too dark or add #3 if it’s too light.)
And dark tones, too.
Get out your misting spray (see below) onto your foundation brush, then your foundation minerals and apply. This is a buildable formula, which means you can add on if you would like to have more coverage.

Now, my only question for you is, how will you NOT buy all of these incredible products
Go big or go home?
If you bought yourself a foundation, blush, bronzer, eyeshadow, eyeliner, Multi Tasker for brows, a lipstick, a lip gloss and the Mister Spray you’d be looking at an amazing and complete set for under $272.25 CAD!
This is an amazing company that we are all going to be so happy to have in our homes! Ask us how you can get on board with making the switch!
With Purpose,
Tonia
Love this! I am always looking to pare down and go vegan with what I place on my skin! I love a small biz owner developing stuff like this. Our skin is the largest organ on our bodies, I think to treat it with pure quality.

I am so proud of her for all of her hard work in not only developing an incredible product that I can be proud to get behind, but for selling it with a bigger vision of getting safe and synthetic free make up in the hands of as many people as possible. The vision wasn’t about the money, it was about a product you can trust.
Sold!

Sounds great – is it similar to bare minerals?

Bare minimal contains Bismuth, a metal, at least in their foundations, while Savvy does not. There are a few more ingredients in Bare, but it seems they are similar!
