Mineral Make up

kellym3girls · **Mineral Make up**

Does anyone use this? I am considering investing in the Bare Minerals or Sheer Cover (Leeza Gibons).

Any recomendations or good things to say about either of these?

Thanks!

I use the cheaper kind at Walmart. I wasn't sure about it at first then my dd got her some and I tryed it---I always caked it on to cover flaws with other stuff---I loved it , so I imagine that stuff would work even better.

I use Bare Minerals, has been the best makeup for me EVER!

I've been using sheer covers for about 4 yrs and really LOVE it. i've tried BM and I don't think It covers as well as sheer covers.I have dry skin. Over the summer I ran out of sheer cover, so I use a differrent product (it cost more).I use it for about a week and I started breaking out I quit right away and it took a couple of weeks for my skin to return back to normal. I break out here and there usually when I'm really stress out or at that time of the month but I think sheer cover really helps my skin.

I am a huge fan of Bare Minerals...I have been using Bare Escentuals for 3 years now and love it. I thought about tryingthe sheer cover just to see how it compares, but haven't gotten around to it (maybe when I run out of BE), so I'm curious too, to see if anyone else has used it and what they think.

I use Jane Iredale make up. I am lucky tho, my Mom sales it in her Hair Salon so I get it at her cost. I have never wore make up before a couple years ago so for ME I love the fact that I feel like I'm not really wearing anything. I use the bronzer & mascara (the mascara is not good for this brand tho) for every day and add eye shadow for special occasions. It's the best. Something else I like about the make up which is very economical is all the colors can be used for everything. The same product can be put on as a eye shadow, blush, and lips. If you can find some place that sales Jane Iredale, I highly recommend it

A mom on another board I vist turned me onto Smoky Mountain Minerals. They are having free shipping and some pretty darn good prices on their sets.

I really like the Bare Minerals. I have very sensitive skin and it works very well on me. It can be a little drying in the winter. I might try a less expensive brand when I run out. That is the other great thing about it though.. it lasts a LONG time!

I use bare Minerals & I Love it , after having my girls my face had red blotches and my other make up didnt cover, i didnt want to order because it was kinda expencive but then I thought i deserve to spend a little money on me . it was so worth it . If you have a Costco they now carry it

I've used Bare Minerals since it first came onto the market in the late 1970's. I'm allergic to many ingredients in make-up so mineral make-up is a God-send for me.

If you decide on using Bare Minerals, DEFINATELY buy the starter kit - about $60-$70 at Sephora.com - but don't feel obligated to continue with the automatic ship program. The starter kit saves you tons of money because it really does contain stuff you'll use - the brushes especially - but if you bought them individually all that would cost over $200.
