Begin by gently shaking a little bit of foundation into the lid. If you have more than one foundation, in order to get the correct tone for your skin, simply shake all foundations into one lid. This will make both mixing and cleanup easier.

There are many different companies that offer mineral foundation so you should choose one that fits your needs. Everyday Minerals is a really great line that only uses natural ingredients, and they are very affordable as well. But if this is your first time using minerals, most people begin with the Bare Minerals Getting Started Kit.
