    Once I discovered I needed to mix two shades (Ivory and Bisque), I got the hang of this mineral foundation and was so thrilled with the way it covers, the beautiful, natural looking finish, and the...

    This foundation is a little tricky to use. Applying it with a good brush is a must. The whole whirling and tapping technique needs to be mastered before attempting to put on any type of mineral...

    This looked cakey over my acne/bumps. It was okay for medium coverage in the winter but could not withstand the summer heat and my oily skin- I looked like a melting witch, yuck!!

    Today was the first AND last day I will ever wear this godawful makeup. First, I didn't even receive a blending brush so I made do with what I have already at home. Second, I have the tiniest pores...

    First of all, unless you're extremely light or dark, you will need to become your own personal mixologist. I was aware of this after reading the reviews on here and on Avon's website. I decided to...

    In general I hate mineral make up (with the exception of Urban Decay's surreal skin-which I highly recommend if you like mineral powders). Because my skin tone is fair with pink undertones, I can...

    I am an Avon Rep and Mineral Makeup doesn't work for everybody. In addition people apply it to heavily and don't understand how to use the brush, shake of the excess and apply it in a circular...

    This is a great mineral foundation for the price. I found it to be smoother than Physician's Formula or Jane or Aromaleigh. It does not come close to Jane Iredale. I use a flat makeup brush,...

    Let me start by saying that I'm an Avon rep. I have horrendously oily and acneprone skin at 36 so I don't use any of Avon's foundations normally. (The Mark powder buff foundation is a better...

    This goes on beautifully with the correct brush. The one you get with the foundation is useless. You need a large kabuki brush. You have to blend the powder in the lid of the container with the ...

    To be honest, I'm disappointed. I'm usually quite satisified with Avon and use their Soft Matte Mouse in Cream. However, I decided I didn't need all that coverage and tried to switch to Smooth...

    I don't get it. Why do they call this make-up? This is just a powder with a colour that looks artificial, it doesn't blend, it doesn't set in, it doesn't do anything. Yes, sure, if I pick it up...

    I purchased this in the color Warmth to use as a blusher, bronzer, eye shadow, etc.[not as a foundation]. It was very cheap [for the quality]--I got it on sale for under 10 dollars. I was shocked...
