I was actually looking up at the monave website last nite and almost hit the buy button but than the shipping was like USD 18 and that put me off. In the end I ordered from sheermiracle. I will try to order some from monave...when have enuff money. I do not want to come to the point to think that MM is not for me. I forgot to mention that I did have breakouts...small pimples on my face. I do have good skin not to mention on the monthly days I do have breakouts..but aft using the MM my skin became abit bumpy. What shld I do?
I dont think I can stop my perspiration on myface rite. Its quite bad when I have to attend function and after my face is made up...the sweat drips and it spoils my whole face and the makeup flows down...hahaha..
awaiting for your inputs.

thanks.

At least you know mineral makeup is more breathable and therefore better for your skin.

The only thing i can think of is maybe trying the minerals wet or trying liquid mineral foundation. I think Monave, NCN, maybe even pure luxe have liquid minerals. I think YoungBlood has liquid mineral makeup as well and i believe you can purchase it in Singapore. I know when i went back for holiday last year one of my relative was using it.

Hi Parasite
glad to hear that you were from sg. You know rite our weather its very hot and humid. When I read up the websites on MM they mention that liquid or cream foundation is more for dry skin. MIne is oily and sweaty not sure if it will look cakey or so dramatic. Havent tried using the MM wet afraid that it might not even out..guess shld try it. During the day the weather is so hot and i start to perspire..so if im going to try it wet dun know how its gonna be. I will have a mini fountain flowing on myface. Where is this youngblood mineral sold in sing. nvr heard of that.
thanks for your advice.

so many good reviews about PL. I am new here and am very new to mineral makeup. Just a month ago I bumped into another forum and read so many nice and good effects about MM. I was tempted to try it and ordered it online from PL. I was so excited and got my stuff after about 15days.
I tried marlene for the first time. It oxidised on me alot and I looked darker. I tried caramel, suntan, cocoa..all gave me the same effect. I have oily skin and it made it worse..more oil and shine.
I tried warm honey it was good but it didnt last for a few hours. I am a person who perspire alot on my face. I got to stand near the fan to cool my face before application. I do not have a problem with the application though but thought that it controls perspiration!!! huh!!! but it didnt. I still want to try MM. I orderd from cory and am waiting for the stuff to come.
Any advice from anyone out there. Its quite cool to try out MM but the amount of money spent on international shipping is alot!!!. The weather here in singapore is so humid. With all the oil and perspiration on the face do you think I can be someone who will say WOW to MM. Hope to hear from you ladies.
I am happy for all the ladies out there that PL worked for you.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Emma,
I was recently living in Singapore and discovered Alima MMU. It is sold by a skincare shop called Skin Story in the Central Mall. (behind Clarke Quay- sp?). The owner, Adonsia, is awesome and you can try all the colors you want and also buy samples in small jars. They were able to take 1 look at me and pick the correct color instantly. For me, it lasted all day in the Singapore humidity and heat! I have an oily t-zone but used with the Alima primer, it controlled oil very well. Do try it out! (and the facials there are totally organic and to die for!!)
