Mineral make up?

does mineral make up actually work? does anyone use it and does it good at covering up pimples and stuff?Mineral make up?
Are you talking about makeup like bareMinerals by Bare Escentuals? If so then I can definitely attest to the fact that they DO!





I don't work for the company or anything - I was just really tired of never having the right makeup. I never felt like anything I used was really good for my skin and I also always had a hard time blending 100% because there just aren't really any foundations out there that look totally natural [to me].





Plus, I hate foundation! I don't care if they say they're water-based... For someone who has a T-zone face like I do (combination dry/normal/oily), no foundation really works.





I saw the commercials on TV for the longest time before I tried it. I was skeptical about it because I didn't believe there was any way that powder could cover up certain things like the occasional blemish and the melasma (dark splotches) I developed from using birth control.





The stuff really works. I love it. Now I can't live without it. To be totally honest with you, there is a little bit of a learning curve in the beginning when you're trying to figure out correct application, blending and all that but once you get it right, it's awesome!





It covers the melasma completely without looking the least bit cakey and it doesn't ';feel'; like you've got all this makeup on. An added benefit for me is that ever since I started using it, I have WAY less instances of breakouts. I was never terribly acne prone to begin with but always had to deal with the occasional breakout and this stuff works really well at covering without looking like you put it on with a spatula.





Recently a very fair-skinned, acne prone friend of mine finally started using it (after I'd been telling her to try it for at least a year). Her skin has cleared up A LOT and now she LOVES the stuff!





The thing about it is that it works for any skin type and color. I mean honestly if I could be a spokesperson for them, I would be because that is how much I believe in their product!





The nicest compliment I've gotten since I started using it was my dentist told me that I have beautiful skin (and you know how close they have to get 'cause I mean they're working in your mouth!!)...





I would say give it a shot but start off with one of the small starter kits... The stuff can get a little pricey but a little goes a long way so for me it lasts twice as long (at least) as conventional makeup.Mineral make up?
I am a professional makeup artist and I have been using mineral makeup on my clientel for about 4 years now. I have a range of clientel from very high dollar wealthy clientel to your average teenager. I do photo shoots, weddings, proms, fashion shows etc.. and I use http://www.faerieorganic.com/ I have deat with some people with purple cystic acne and this stuff covered with flying colors. It is all natural with no fillers or preservatives (unlike bare escentuals) and you won't need to wear sunscreen in the summer on your face as this stuff really protects you from the suns rays, it is also waterproof and sweatproof. Nothing is worse than doing makeup for a wedding on a hot july day and havingit melt off, this stuff stays on. Check out the site, the home page even shows how well it covers redness.
yea..tdy a guy called me at work n told me that he is interested in renting my office space for a mineral make-up workshop..i gt sum details frm him..mineral make-up is gonna be the next big thing it seems..its supposed to be totally free of chemicals..so it wun cause pimples n stuff..n they hv made it relatively long lasting thru natural measures..think u can try it!
Yes mineral make up works because it has been like idk 2 years and i have tried other make up and it makes me brake out so i used mineral make up and it really works i luv the stuff and it is like really easy to blend and it covers alot!!
mineral make up is fantastic..it helps cover blemishes, makes spots less visible and makes your skin look flawless. I highly recommend it. Mineral bronzer is also very good and gives you an amazing glow.
Mineral make-up does work. I have been using the Bare Minerals beginners kit everyday for two years and it lasts all day. It's expensive, but it's worth it.
I suppose different brands work differently. A good one I've tried is by Young Blood. To conceal pimples, try dabbing on a concealer first followed by loose powder or foundation to set.
i dont use it but i hear its better cus it dont clog your pores, i just started using make up so im going slow trying new things out,buy a small cheap one and see how you like it =]
My younger sister was using it and she started gettting tiny pimples all over her forehead from the make up.
i use Merle Norman mineral makeup and i love it! coverage is great and its very light and matches my skin color well
