    I've tried many mineral make ups (Jane Iredale, Aromaleigh, Bare Minerals, JLynne, etc) and a lot of them gave me a shiny look (bismuth? or is it the mica?) Anyway, I tried this one since it's...

    I just bought this a couple of days ago, and I LOVE it. It covers well without looking cakey or mask-like. It's not heavy at all, and seems to melt into my skin. I bought the starter kit that...

    With oily skin, unfair young adult acne and the inexplicable dry patches, it's hard to find an ideal foundation that takes care of this myriad of problems. This powder foundation doesn't do much...

    This product is awesome, provides great coverage without looking like makeup. Hides all flaws and shine, and doesn't sit in wrinkles. Best foundation I have ever used!

    This is pretty good. What I definately like about it is that it's really quick and easy to apply. You really get good coverage with this and it requires less layering. Even though it has a matte...

    Provides great coverage, but does tend to cake on me somedays. I like the shades more so far BE for fair skin people.

    Pur minerals is a great product. It has full coverage compared to bare minerals. You don't need a mineral veil and it lasts all day. Plus it's really quick to put on. I wouldn't reccomend this...

    This looks stale and gray on my skin. Not thanks, not the look I was going for. Aromaleigh and Glominerals both look way better than this.
