This looked cakey on me. I'm an nc25 and the lightest color worked well on me. This just sat on my skin, didn't look good.

I went to CVS today to try the Milani glimmestrips since they were having a BOGO 50% off sale. I got one glimmerstrip that seemed good, but I didn't like any others so I thought I'd try this. ...

This compact mineral makeup wasn't half as bad as the loose makeup. The compact in honey beige was much nicer than the loose powder in the same color. It was a good match for my skin tone. Coverage...

I love this stuff! It's a great replacement for other, messier mineral makeups. The coverage isn't all too great for me, but I always need a separate concealer no matter what I use. Otherwise,...

This is very impressive for a $6 drugstore product. It has slightly more coverage than pressed powder, but not as much as a true powder foundation. It goes on super smooth and light, I have to be...

I wish this came one shade lighter. I'm NC15-20 and bought Nude Buff, the lightest shade, and it's about one shade too dark in natural light. Too bad, because otherwise it's pretty darn good. I...

If you are not a fan of BE, this may be a product you'll like. This worked nothing like BE for me. It was mask-like and showed every pore. I loved the price and the packaging. The compact is...
