Hi, what’s your name? Amy Nelson

What is the name of business you are a consultant/distributor for?  Mineralicious! Makeup

What type of products do you sell?  Wonderful, affordable, mineral makeup, skincare, and body products.

What is your favorite 3 products from this company? Sheer Glow Foundation (our lightest coverage formula, good for less mature skin and teens, has the ‘glow’ without the bismuth oxychloride that is found in a lot of traditional mineral makeup formulas, is very lightweight), Pink Grapefruit Facial Scrub (this awesome scrub has the texture of a very thick cream, however when you add water, it lathers slightly to gently cleanse your face), and the Veil (Veil is a finishing powder for your minerals 🙂 Veil helps to give that airbrushed finish look…and you can also use it by itself on days when you don’t want to go the “full monty” but still want to polish things up a bit).

What makes this company and/or its products different than its competitors?  A lot of companies offer mineral makeup, but this one specializes in it.  It is a woman-owned business, and the owner still makes everything to order herself.  Also, these products are much less expensive than other brands of mineral makeup.

What inspired you to join this company? I tried some samples, and absolutely loved them, I knew I’d be crazy not to join.  Now I am enjoying sharing the products with friends so they can see how truly wonderful they are.

How do you manage your schedule around your children? I have a wonderful husband!  (I also work outside of the home and rep another direct sales company besides this one.)

How long has this company been in business?  It celebrated it’s one year birthday in August.

Are you trying to expand your team?  Absolutely!


How much does it cost to join this company?  There are two kits – the basic kit is $15, the Business Builder kit is $30.


How much commission does a new recruit make on sales?  25%


What is the personal discount for a new recruit?  25%


Do you have to pay for your company web site? If so, how much, how often?  No, it is free.


Are you offering any sales through this company for our readers?  Use code FB5FS for Free First Class Shipping through September 30!

What is your web site link?   www.amyenelson.mineralicious.com

Anything special you would like to tell my readers about yourself or your business that I didn’t ask you?  I used a major name brand mineral makeup for over five years before trying Mineralicious!, and made the switch immediately!  Not only is my switch much friendlier to my wallet, but my skin tone and texture is noticeably improved and my makeup just looks better now!

Amy, thanks for taking the time to do this interview! I can say first hand how great the Mineralicious! products are, and the owner of the business is an awesome lady too! ~Shannon~
