Applying Orglamix is as easy as 1-2-3. The light-as-air minerals go on sheer, allowing you to build coverage, and blend effortlessly into skin to cover imperfections. One application is all it takes for an airbrushed complexion and skin that glows from morning to night without touch-ups.

- Pour a small amount of foundation from the jar into the lid.

- Tap off excess.
- Blend over your face by moving the brush in a circular motion around the cheeks, nose, chin and forehead and anywhere you desire flawless coverage.
- If you prefer more coverage, continue to apply foundation as needed.

Today salt is universally available, but historically this was not the case. In the past, salt was used as a method of food preservation, flavoring agent, in pottery, religious rituals, and for medicinal and nutritional properties. It has served as money at various times and places, been the objective of major explorations, and it has caused bitter warfare. Salt was used around the world by many different cultures, including the ancient Romans, Egyptians, Hebrews, and Greeks. Documents have even been recovered in China from 2,700 BC that discuss over 40 types of salt and their extraction methods, which are very similar to the processes still used.
