    I like this mineral make up because it has so few ingredients. My super sensitive skin seems to react to so many things that it is hard to keep up but this did not cause a reaction. My first...

    i purchased this color in L-20. like other reviewers have stated, when you look at the powder it does have obvious sparkles in it, but once buffed they disappear and you get the mineral makeup dewy...

    Well I'm still kind of on the fence with this make up. I have been an on and off customer of Merle Norman for years. While I haven't loved every product I must say that most Merle Norman products...

    This provides excellent coverage, lasts all day, and doesn't break me out. My jar has lasted a year- you do get quite a bit of product for your money. I only wish they made more colors, and added...

    Love this! I am NW20 and purchased this over the summer and ended up with ML40. For winter, I probably could use a lighter shade. This comes in a sifter container with 15 grams (1/2 oz) which...

    Love! I just purchased this yeseterday, and so far I am impressed. I was a bit nervous to try this one out because I worried that it would be too shimmery on my combination skin. On me, it actually...

    The 2nd lightest color was a decent match, not too pink but a tad dark. I buffed it on with my Trish McEvoy powder brush and ewww!! I was so shimmery not to mention that my pores and fine lines...

    Well, at the age of 57, and after having had this sitting in my mu drawer for a couple of years, I decided that I'm sick of the goopy liquid foundations. Decided to go back to this, and so far, so...

    I'm on the fence with this product. I have pretty horrible skin at the moment so I think my only option for coverage is a liquid. I think this looks great as a finishing powder over my liquid and...

    Wow...it's love. Does everything mineral makeup should do, only it does it better than any mineral makeup I've ever tried before. And for $26, you get an amazingly large amount of product!!

    I love this makeup. At first the sales associate sold me a shade a bit too dark for me, so I went it and got a shade lighter, which is the lightest shade they have available. It's a tad pink for...

    I recently switched from BE to this, and I couldn't be happier with the result. I never had the itchy problem from Bismuth, but I wanted something that would give me more of an airbrushed look. I...

    At long last I finally found a mineral makeup that doesn't accentuate my large pores. It is so much better than the BE mineral makeup that I have been using for the past 4 years and you get 4 times...

    WOW! I found a good color match, L20 (for reference I am MAC NC20), for my fair skintone. I use a Japonesque kabuki brush to apply, and this gives great, buildable coverage. I put on a sheer...

    My skin hates most foundations. It flakes if it's not happy - think peeling after a sunburn - or scaly like eczema - reaction depends on the product. Yuk. I'm 62 and my skin has a mind of it's...

    First of all, I want to start off saying that this is one of the only mineral powders I have tried before. The texture of the powder is very fine, and a little bit really does go a long way. And...
