What do you think of mineral powder?

Question

I want to get some mineral powder foundation. I have combination skin with large, visible pores, so would it be good for me? What brands are the best? I was thinking about Maybelline or Everyday Minerals. Does it have good, buildable coverage? I have lots of red blemishes on my forehead but not as much on the rest of my face, will it cover my red pimples?...and also, should I get pressed or loose powder? Please describe the pros/cons of both. Thanks in advance~

Answer 1

My favorite is Maybelline New York Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Powder Foundation, $10, at drugstores. It contains all-natural ingredients, meaning it’s free from the preservatives and oils that can often irritate skin. Also look for phrases like “fragrance-free,” “noncomedogenic,” or “allergy tested” on the packaging to be sure the product is safe for you.

Some acne sufferers find that mineral makeup calms and improves their acne, and causes less trauma when applied to the skin than conventional makeup. Look for a mineral makeup that is free of mineral oil; bismuth; Biron (bismuth oxychloride); and FD&C Dyes and Lake Blends. All these additives can cause or worsen acne. You may find it helpful to experiment with different brands and application techniques to get the best coverage. Consider starting with one or more professional applications from an aesthetician or makeup artist to perfect your technique.
