Mineral Makeup - Recommendations?

I LOVE Bare Minerals. I've been using it for about 3 years now. Not every day, but most. It lasts a long time for me because I mix the two colors together (that come in the kit through the Club). I've also tried Mary Kay. It's pretty good too. A little heavier coverage, and no "Mineral Veil" like with Bare Minerals (frankly, that's the part I love best!) I stopped the Bare Minerals club because I was stockpiling the stuff! But you can buy it at Ulta.

Hi C.,
I've never been much of a makeup user and dreaded putting on foundation. My SIL had me try Bare Essentuals and I LOVE IT!! It goes on so light and yet gives good coverage. Plus it is so quick. They have a bunch of different products, but being the minimalist that I am, I just use the foundation. I'll never go back to liquid. Hope you find something that you like.

I caught a repeat the other day of Oprah's "summer must haves". The more affordable mineral makeup that made their cut was Maybelline mineral powder. I've not tried that line yet, but when I run out of my Bare Essentials I will be headed their way. You can also get deals on EBay on these "club" makeups. Like another mom mentioned, you easily get a stockpile of some things or shades.

Hi C.!
I have been using L'Oreal's mineral makeup for a few months now, and I love it! It goes on light and smooth, and still evens out my skin tone nicely. I decided to try L'Oreal first before getting the more expensive brands because I wasn't sure what mineral makeup would be like for my skin. So far, it has been great, I even noticed a difference in my skin, it feels softer and looks healthier. I have heard a lot of good things about Bare Essentuals, but I couldn't afford the price. Hope you can find a makeup that works best for you! Have a nice day!

Hi C.. Arbonne has a mineral powder foundation with SPF 15. You may contact me if you are interested.

P.S. I worked with a doula for the first time recently with the birth of my 2nd son, and I am a big advocate for birth doulas. I had a postpartum doula help me with my first son with breastfeeding. What a wonderful profession!
