What company have larger than average mineral foundation jars?

that are good quality and good coverage. Which companies give you the most for your money?

They are all pretty much the same. They are in 30g containers which really only hold 8g of product.

Meow has huge jars

Meow ...Not bad at all...

I was going to say Meow. Those jars look huge!

Those Meow jars are massive! I don't know if you have Natio over seas, but their jars are 13g or something like that, which doesn't sound like much more but it's sometimes 5/6gs heavier then ones like Maybelline and Loreal(which are normally about 8g), which I think makes a huge difference. And they are cheaper with great coverage.

Meow jars are 85 grams, if I remember correctly.

I wouldn't choose a company based on jar size, considering bigger jar size doesn't necessarily mean "cheaper/better deal" and certainly doesn't guarantee better quality. Keep in mind that makeup also has a shelf life, and having a large jar that'll last 5-10 years instead of 1-2 might not be the best idea. If you need quantity though, you might e-mail some of the online stores. They might be able to give you a discount for buying in bulk, if that's what you're going for. Never hurts to ask.

If one does not dip the brush in the jar, nor swirls the brush on the lid or keeps the powder exposed in a wet environment - there's no risk of contamination. Besides - ZnO is antibacterial, has to be one tough bugger to even try.

I usually go thru 1 container every 4 months - 8g (30g container). 1 x3oz container is approximately 3x more product (22-30g)... that last me about a year. As long as you keep it dry, it'll last a very long time. Inert materials don't general degrade with time. There are no liquids for bacteria to grow either.

Jane Iredale's loose foundation comes in a 10.5g jar... kind of pricey but worth it for the coverage, quality and it lasts a long time even with daily wear

They are all pretty much the same.

I love the Pampered one, but I need a good primer (like Fyrinnae) and a good finishing powder (Fyrinnae, Buff'd, Aromaleig) because the staying power is not strong as other brands
