    Dizzy Best mineral makeup for flawless coverage

    Hi girls,
    Im looking for a new foundation, i have oily skin so a powder base foundation is better.
    Can anyone recommend one? For the last few years i have been using maxfactor facefinity compact powder but feel like i need a change.
    Any good mineral makeup foundations?
    I need something that won't clog my pores but gives fantastic coverage- i want flawless skin!
    Thanks girls

    I heard that bare minerals is one of the best. my friend used that brand and she had great coverage and you can get it at sephora. I myself use MAC mineral foundation for natural and medium coverage. You can still see my skin but it covers all redness that i have and it evens my complexion but the best thing is that it doesnt even look like im wearing any makeup. It looks like my natural skin so i love that one.

    Bare minerals fan here too! It makes me looked airbrushed! If it doesnt provide enough coverage you are probably using to light a shade ime. I had this issue years ago.

    I've used bare minerals before and I liked it a lot, but I was just wondering if there was something better on the market. Guess they're still the best!

    Bare Escentuals for me, too...I've occasionally tried other brands, but was disappointed and always came back to this one.

    My question is, what about the coverage level? I need a medium to full coverage. Thanks

    I always use Bare Minerals for makeup when I dance. It gives me at least medium coverage...a lot of that will have just as much to do with the brush you use to apply as it does with the powder itself. A good brush makes a HUGE difference with makeup coverage and staying power. A good primer makes a big difference, too. I recommend Tarte's primer...Tarte is all-natural, and it never aggravated my combination skin.

    ^^This is so true! I use my bukie on days I need heavier coverage and it is def full coverage but my flawless face brush only gives light- med coverage for ''natural'' days. Primers are also very important. I used to use Loreals Skin genesis serum as it was moisturizing, plumped lines and acted as a primer (silicone base) but alas it is discontinued.

    I hated Bare Minerals/Bare Escentuals! If you are medium to dark, I would avoid! It made me looks like a tan mother of pearl!

    Make your own! Seriously. You can buy all the ingredients in mineral makeup for super cheap on sites like www.tkbtrading.com. I love the Alima Pure makeup but saw that its only made of a few ingredients. So for the price of one of their foundations I literally have a pound of stuff and can easily customize the shade to whatever I want. I can make foundation, bronzer, blush, and sunscreen from the same things.
    Pick a base (like titanium dioxide or mica) then add the colors. You can make all foundation colors, blush colors, and bronzer from the iron oxides: red, yellow, and black.
    Blend everything up in a little coffee grinder and voila mineral makeup.

    Make Up Forever has an amazing coverage pressed foundation. You might want to go to sephora and check it out. I live by their foundation. Bare Minerals isnt for everyone. I say take a trip to sephora and ask for options. At least you can be in one place and narrow your search down from the many options.
    Ain't nothing more important than the mula!!

    Mineral makeup turns into a pile of grease shit on my face, it clogs my pores. I've tried many.

    I love Laura Mercier loose mineral powder. Way better shades than BE if you are medium to dark, it gives great coverage and is the only foundation I can wear that doesn't break me out. I didn't really mind the formula of BE but the shade selection for darker skin tones was so shitty. One would be too light and then the other would be this weird dark pinky-tan color. Ugh!

    everydayminerals.com I've been using it for 6 or so years. Tried other things from time to time but always go back to my EDM! Use intensive base for the most coverage.

    ^ I <3 everyday minerals. It sucks they don't sell sample packages like they used to though. That always helped me find the right shade.

    IMO everyday minerals provides heavy coverage. Bare minerals medium coverage if you cake it on. The former has more colors, but is only available online. Buying in bulk can save a decent chunk of $$$ though. Bare minerals is available at Ulta and some other places I'm sure. If you have pale skin their lightest shade might be too dark. That's a problem I encountered at least. They are also more expensive than EM.
