mineral makeup (color, girl, light, rosacea)

Does mineral makeup work for you? What brand do you use?

Became a Bare Essentionals fan a couple of years ago and never looked back. I am a woman who has not been seen for 30+ years without her foundation! It is awesome. Very light, feels like you are wearing nothing but it does cover "things". Looks much more natural than any liquid or other form too.

I use Neutrogena, and love it! I am 46, and still have good skin, that stuff is the bomb! It doesnt "clabber" like liquid, stays on all day, if I get shiny, I just dust down with a bit of loose powder, I cant recommend mineral foundation enough! btw, I am another one that never goes out of the house without foundation, and this stuff is so much faster than liquid, or the powder ones.

I have been using the Bare Escentuals line for about a year and I really like it!

I used liquid foundation for years, and dealt with breakouts from the oils that they contained. My skin is so much better now! It's so light, it really does feel like you're not wearing anything. I think it looks very natural.

My daughters are now starting with makeup, and I bought them the Bare Minerals foundation - with teen skin, the last thing they need is more oils and such on their skin!

I use Bare Minerals, have not found anything better so far. Love the shimmery Mineral Veil.

I use Mineral Secrets. I have rosacea and a few years ago was looking for something to cover redness and also have a lighter feel. I chose the color Cool Beige from their selection. I would never go back to liquid.

My dermatologist was very pleased I switched to minerals.

I love mineral make-up. As others have stated it's very light, but still gives good coverage. Most mineral powder foundations also have a reflective quality which give a nice healthy "glow" to the face. I use Arbonne.

I tried all sorts of mineral make-up and it only dried out my skin. That was just me though. Everyone I talk to LOVES the stuff! I am still a liquid girl myself. My mom started using mineral and she refuses to use anything else. She uses Aromaleigh. Look it up on google. It is really neat they send free samples and have tons and TONS of selection!! I love their blush and eyeshadows.

It irritated my skin - I have sensitive skin and it just didn't work for me.

I used NEUTROGENA and I feel like my skin acts allergic to it. So I stopped using it....
