    I love this product because it makes my skin glow and isn't cakey like most foundations. I give it a 4 because it doesn't really conceal much so I use MAC's studio fix concealer, then apply...

    I tried this in "Fair" and it was still a little to dark for me. I hated this foundation! It made my face itch and it made me break out! So much for it being natural and pure. I like the brush you...

    Hmmm...I've only used this once and my first impression is that it is just ok. It doesn't cover as well as Everyday Minerals and the color selection is very limited. So far I haven't had any...
