    When I heard MK was doing a mineral foundation, I was excited. But then . . . I tried it. I have used BE for a year and love the coverage and staying power of it. Well, I found the MK mineral...

    First of all, I've never found another brand that matches my exact skintone like MK does. In the past I've use their cream to powder, Dual coverage and Med coverage in Ivory 100. In the summer I...

    I have been wearing this foundation for about a week now and I like it. This is supposedly the replacement for the dual coverage pressed powder (my HG foundation). Leave it to MK to mess up a...

    When mineral makeup first came out, I checked out the product reviews and felt I was not a good candidate (in my 50s, large pores, some acne scarring); I also thought it was just another gimmick....

    I am very pleased with this product. It did take a couple of times of applying to get the hang of it, but it goes on well and stays on all day. I use Ivory 2. It works very well at covering red...

    I have combo/acne prone skin and have tried BE and LM mineral foundations. BE looked like a mask and made my pores look huge, LM was nice, but I am not crazy about the 3 step process of primer,...

    This is my first try with any mineral foundation, I am very pale & freckled and I typically like full coverage. My skin is on the dry side, so I worried that a powder would settle into fine lines....

    Great product. Nice package. Good sifter and brush. Great value. No glitter like other mineral products I've tried. The color beige 1 is great on me. I still prefer liquid foundation, but...

    I've tried lots of mineral makeup and so far this one is the best. Mostly because of the color match. I think it covers well, not full, but I think it's a great very natural look. I do use...

    As I am 52 years old and have a lot of reness in my face from broken capillaries, I prefer a "made-up" look. I was very skeptical about using this product because it provides a "natural" look. ...
