For canadian cysters who want a less expensive mineral makeup than Jane Iredale, i can really recommend this brand from this spa.

I recently purchased this as it's a canadian spa product and i could order it through their website. I've used it for 1 week and it is amazing. You get 15 grams total product in the compact than Jane Iredale(10 grams) and the price is CAD$39.95. The colour i ordered (swiss coffee) is perfect and blends so well, that in every light condition (strong sunlight, office lighting, low light etc) it always looks great. It's blends so well into the skin it's virtually invisible for 12+hrs and doesn't have that irritating shiny look to it. I've had multiple compliments on how smooth and beautiful my skin is this past week. One light application in the morning completely covers my roseacea redness and i don't have to reapply at any time during the day or evening. One caveat is that i have oily skin and some shine does come through for me around lunchtime, but i take care of that by blotting with a tissue. The oil lifts and the colour stays so that is great too.
I can't say enough good things about this MMU. I love it and it will be my new makeup bag staple....
