I have been using the Physician's Formula mineral make-up for a couple weeks and I really like it. I bought a lighter shade to try to blend to get the right color. I don't break out like I did from using all the other stuff - I had been an ALMAY ONLY person for about 10 years - but that all changed when they discontinued the 16 hour make-up I used to use, then I needed something else.
Anyway, I really like the way the mineral make-up covers my blemishes and that I don't really need a lot for my skin to look pretty much flawless. It is around $10 for a compact (at least at Wal-Mart) and I figured it was worth a try. I didn't like the fact that the Neutragena mineral make-up had the brush attached and that you had to "shake it" down onto the bristles. I think you might waste too much...JMO.
Oh - I agree with once the make-up is on, the face is off limits for touching...I never touch my face once my make-up is complete. It is just something that over the years I have gotten used to. It has taken me a long time to get used to the fact that my DH wants to touch my face when he kisses me and my daughter likes to touch my face when I pick her up. With the mineral make-up I notice that it doesn't smudge like the liquid foundation used to. So that is a huge plus! |
