Just a quick trivia to everyone.. My first beauty post ever, way back in April 2008 was all about Ellana Minerals (You can look for it on my search engine at the sidebar). I can still remember the MMU (Mineral Makeup Craze) back then. Mineral makeup was the talk of the town,, err primarily by female girltalkers. Mineral makeup was even sold in teaspoon (1/8, 1/4, 1/2 tsp.) and they came in a handy dandy plastic zip locks. Yehess,, parang droga lang ang peg ng mga epektos. haha Ellana Minerals was the first local mineral makeup brand. It was the very first mineral makeup that I tried and I have to admit that I fell in love with the brand. I love their HD powder that mattifies even the slightest oiliness that it touches. One of their best sellers has got to be the full coverage foundation that I would often use as a concealer because of its superb pigmentation. Despite my love for this brand, I would always wish that they come out with pressed mineral products! As the saying goes, wishes do come true.
Ellana recently had a launch. I call this "the comeback". Hihi
Here is a quick press info from Ellana Minerals:
In 2006, two friends wondered: where could they find makeup
gentle enough for sensitive skin but strong enough
to withstand the tropics?

The name Ellana is derived from the Greek
word for “bright”- a fitting name for makeup
that gives skin a luminescent quality.

Each sweep of powder and pat of color conjures the
vision of a goddess radiating with light, possessing a

They will be having pressed minerals which I am very excited about.
Another thing to fall in love with Ellana Minerals is their new packaging. It looks so sleek and stylish. The lady behind these illustrations is Soleil Ignacio, a top freelance fashion illustrator.
