PurePressed Base Mineral Foundation

This is my go to foundation. I don't like the look or feel of heavy coverage , so I'm not certain you'll like this is you want super heavy coverage.

I love everything about this. It's apparently good for skin and it feels like it's good for skin when it's on. It's a product you can use all year round. The packaging is fancy and sturdy. The sponge it …Read more

I am dry-acne prone and with well-moisturized and primed skin, this powder looks fantastic and lasts all day. Warm Sienna is perfect for NC25. On the pricey side but well worth it.

I love powder foundations more than any other type. The good ones are truly invisible and this is the only type of foundation that gives me a natural looking great skin.
My skin is sensitive, normal to dry, dehydrated.
I hate this powder! No other powder foundation has ever performed on my skin like this one or looked as bad on photos.
In one hour it settled into every line …Read more

I am a certified makeup junkie, I love good performing makeup, and I use all price points. I prefer to wear powder foundations primarily in the summer time. I had heard really good things about this powder foundation over the years, from sources that I trust. Both Wayne Goss and Tati (of YouTube) have raved about this powder foundation, so I thought it was a sure thing that I would love it. …Read more

I wanted to switch from bare minerals to Jane Iridale, liked that this powder was compact and mattifying. But unfortunately it clogged my pores like crazy. 2-3 whiteheads everyday even when I used oil to wash it off. Not what you would expect from mineral cosmetics especially for the price

I have been using Jane Iredale foundations for 8 years now and never looked back.
+ The performance and staying power is fantastic, it never clogs my pores, gives a healthy glow, and looks great throughout the day.
+ I feel my skin can breathe and I know it's good for me.
+ A little goes a long way, I apply it with the handi brush and sometimes with flocked sponge to set the …Read more

Jane Iredale's pressed foundation is my go-to when I am in a hurry, since the application is very easy. I use the color Bisque. My skin is very fair with neutral to slightly warm undertones (I have some yellow in my skin but can also look ashen).

The foundation is buildable, so if you need more coverage, you will want to do a few thin layers, setting each layer with a setting …Read more

I've been using this foundation for more than a year and am very happy with it. My skin is fair and tends to go a bit ruddy, and the Warm Silk color works well as it doesn't have any pink undertones. I don't use the foundation for its intended purpose but instead use Jane Iredale's tinted moisturizer as my "foundation", then apply this Pure Pressed Base over my …Read more

My original review for this product was written in 2011, so I decided to delete and update it because obviously if I am still using a product years later, there is something good about it.

I have repurchased this stuff many times in several shades depending on season including Warm Sienna, Golden Glow, Satin, Amber and Radiant. With the "real" stuff the coverage is decent and …Read more

I originally reviewed this product 10 years ago - back in 2007! I decided to delete that review so I could write an updated one. For reference, I included my old one at the end of this new review.

I've been using this powder foundation off and on since 2005. I stopped using it for a few years because I fell in love with Laura Mercier's Pressed Mineral Foundation. However …Read more
