Hello, I'm new. I've tried some mineral make up and for the moment my favourites are the Taylor Made.

I've tried only the pigments (for the eye) and not foundations.

I will tell you when I will try other brands.

glo Minerals! Its amazing! I have horrible acne and when I started using this product (stopped Bare Ess.) and using Dermalogical Face regimine...I finally have skin that I am NOT ashamed of.... Right now the gloMinerals is covering up the scars from my Acne while it all heals....its AMAZING. ... Plus I live in the Middle East (VERY VERY DRY) so it keeps my skin protected. ..... Hope this helps.

I just started my mineral makeup journey and have only managed to try Meow, Aubrey Nicole and Lure. I'd have to say that Lure is my ultimate fave right now =) Y7 matches me perfectly, and their rice powder keeps me matte all day long!

Gonna try Lumiere and Lauress next =)

 
Is Lumiere only sold online? Or does one of the stores carry it? I would like to try it. Rigth now I am liking the Everyday Minerals, but I would like to sample the Lumiere.

It will be in New Hartford, NY.
Here is the link to the website >>>>>> Lumiere

Lumiere has great foundation. I would suggest the FF (flawless face) version. It gives the best coverage. It is formulated for normal/dry skin but oily skin people wear it without a problem. I have very oily skin. FF runs LIGHT compared to other brands, so take that into account when ordering samples.

The VV (Veena Velvet) and Luminesse are ok. They both contain oat for oily skin. There have been unconfirmed instances of breakouts with these two versions. The VV runs LIGHT and the Luminesse runs really DARK.

 
I use one from the UK called Purity Cosmetics. Its lovely! Youc an get a sponge to apply it and it works brilliant!

 
for darker tones try element5 mineral makeup.. wide range of shades there

I was at Ulta today, and I notice that they have one called Pur Minerals.

Has anyone tried this one? It is about the same price as the BE, but it is free of the ingredient that causes the itching and burning.

Just wondering if anyone has tried the Pur Minerals sold at Ulta???

I've not heard anything new. I just happened to remember that piece of info from a previous poster. I looked up the city on the Lumiere site.

Too bad I'm in NC. I bet it will be a great store!
