I love the coverage I get from this stuff. I've previously used EM which was way too glowy for me and BE looked a bit chalky. This really does make me look flawless. I use MUFE's HD microfinish...

I loved this product when I first purchased it. I really did look "airbrushed" and it looked natural. I ripped off the sponge applicator and just tapped what I needed into the lid and applied...

I can affect the color and texture of this through application method. Whenever possible I'll use a brush and application technique similar to BE (swirl, tap, buff) and find that the application...

I switched to this product after using Bare Minerals which reacted badly with my skin. This product does not have as many colours, but was ok in that it felt light-weight and provided light to...

If you're looking for a high quality mineral foundation, this is the one you need. It is far superior to BE. It's thicker than other mineral foundations and therefore, it applies and blends very...

I really like this. It's better than BE, which tends to settle into my pores and the BE color (fairly light) is too yellow for me. The beige in this one is great for me because of the cool...

Okay, I know from past reviews, many of you don't like the sponge applicator but in all honestly, I am known to be lazy and grumpy in the AM and if I don't have to take out a brush to apply well...

I really like this product and am on my third jar. Looks like I am with many other reviewers in finding it superior to Bare Escentuals. For me, this was less chalky, cakey and didn't settle into...

So, here's the secret to this product: You HAVE to buy the Philsophy "Present" primer. I tried using this with no primer, and it does what all the negative reviews say...makes your pores look big,...

This is my favorite makeup!! It's like bare minerals, but so much better & not messy. Gives a flawless but not cakey look. Be careful. A little goes a long way & that's another great thing about...

This is by far the worst foundation I have ever tried. It actually has more bismuth than any other mineral foundation. If you acne prone oily skin run from this product. I had to learn the hard...

NASTY!! Great idea, but horrible to use... and if you have oily/acne-ish skin, beware!!! It just sits there with these reflecting pieces that just make your skin look bad (I had the extra rich...

Was really intrigued by the idea of the easy application. Yes, its quick and easy to put on, but the sponge delivers a bit too much product for my liking and so looked a bit heavy for me. I also...

I hate this stuff. Although the texture is really nice and the applicator sponge is handy for dabbing it on (then using a brush) unfortunately it wasn't for quite a while (at least a month or two)...

This product comes in very limited shade ranges for darker complexions, and as a result, I had to buy both the Bronze color and Rich and mix them, which was not cheap. Other than that, I love the...
