    I can't decide on this. It offers very sheer cover not the full cover it likes to claim. It also dries out my combo skin (I have to constantly apply lipgloss because I feel like this is giving me...

    I just got the purminerals starter kit. I am liking the natural look it gives, but it doesn't offer a lot of coverage. It seems to work ok if I "build up" over problem areas ( like the red scar on...

    I liked the product, compact did fall apart after about 8 months, product lasts forever and coverage is natural. Overall a good product.
