Hey.. whats with these mineral makeups.

Question

I aam 50 years old .I constantly get compliments on my skin. I have no lines or wrinkles. Would these be good for me, or should I stay with the old tried and true. I don't want to look dated. But, I also don't want to look foolish.

Answer 1

Hi I am a licensed aestititian, and electrologist. I feel that mineral makup is all hype.  It looks good when it is first applied, however  after about 30 minutes, it will make a persons skin look aged.  I feel it enhances lines and creases.  Also, it does not provide good coverage if that is what you are looking for

Answer 2

Try puritycosmetics.co.uk. It is really good!

Answer 3

mineral make ups are great for your skin!! I love bare minerals. I have tons of post acne marks on my face and it completely covers them up. Plus the make up does not wear off. I never have to reapply it. Not only does it cover up my post acne marks, but ever since I started using it, I haven't gotten any new pimples. this stuff actually cleared up my skin! This make up is great for evening out your skin tone, so you get the look of a flawless complexion. Also you only use a little bit of the products everyday so it will last for a long time. The foundation also contains SPF 15 for sun protection! It is definitely good for your skin because it is free of preservatives, talc, oil, waxes, fragrances, and other chemicals that can irritate your skin. I will never use anything else other than bare minerals again. That's how much I love it!

Answer 4

no, probably not. I am 30 and cannot wear anything mineral. After it settles on your skin, it makes creases.  

Answer 5

hey, why fix what's not broken?  but then, i guess it wouldn't hurt to try & if you don't like it just go back to what you used.  lucky for you!
