    This is by far the best mineral makeup I have ever used (I've tried BE, Everyday Mineral, PUR, Joelle, Jane Iredale, Almay, and Wet-n-Wild). This makeup provides a flawless, glowing (not shiny)...

    This is a wonderful mineral powder foundation. It has wonderful buildable coverage and it looks super natural. I have fine lines and acne scars so my face is far from perfect. With this...

    I love this foundation, I cannot believe how good the coverage is! I also apply it with the MN coverup concealer.

    Even though I'm working at a Merle Norman store and should love this product, I think it's just okay. My issue is with the color selection and the shimmer. The coverage is okay, not as good as BE...
