I have been wearing Nicoletta in the loose powder for almost two years before deciding to get the Compact as well. As many of the previous users have mentioned the colour are very different. The...

I love, love, love La Bella Donna! This is the most finely milled mineral foundation out there and one of the few lines that actually has a shade to match my skin tone (Crema). I use it alone for...

My whole life I searched for makeup that could cover my flaws without getting cakey or melt off during the heat of the day. Since I was 13 or so, I was pretty much miserable and unhappy with...

I have honestly tried all the expensive mineral lines out there and this is by far my favorite. It doesn't break me out like many others do and it covers all my imperfections to make my skin look...

This has been my HG fx for 3 years now. Although the purchase price is kinda high ($50) hte product lasts and lasts -- so if you run a lifecycle analysis on the product, it really isn't expensive...

After amassing a drawerful of mineral makeup, I find this is the one I always go back to. I love that it can be applied wet or dry (although I seldom use it wet) and that the coverage is buildable...

Well I like this powder. I use it w/ a big brush on my T zone & over foundation. It gives good coverage & Nicoletta is a perfect match for me. It seems to be loosely milled enough so that it...

I found my HOLY GRAIL foundation, the one I've been searching for all my life! ! Most mineral makeups are good, but I think this one is the best. It's the only MMU I've found in a pressed compact...

I'm an NC20 and Crema is a perfect match. This pressed powder comes with a sponge, but I couldn't get good results with it. I now apply it very lightly with a fluff brush. It gives a very...

I have bought this product over and over. I leave LBD for what I think will be greener pastures and always end up coming back. The pressed minerals provide a good coverage - I use them over...

This is a nice pressed mineral powder but it can be particularly chalky and matte looking if it's applied too thick. Used sparingly it covers nicely but I can't justify the high price tag.

I use this with a brush for on the go touch ups to the loose minerals, as per my review of that product. It does not get much use due to the staying power of the loose minerals, but is nice to...

I use this with a brush all over my face and then I use the loose minerals as a concealor. The color crema is perfect for pale yellow toned skin and the pressed powder is much sheerer than the...
