Mineral Makeup - What is your Favorite?

by Teri on August 10th, 2007

I have talked much about Mineral Makeup, and I am constantly learning about all the different brands. What is your favorite Mineral Makeup?

I am planning on doing a large round-up of mineral makeup brands and the different product offerings in each line, but I need your help.  Here is a list of some of the more popular mineral makeup brands, that I will cover. I want to know what your favorite mineral makeup is, so I can include them in my round-up.

Please note, I want to cover mineral makeup brands, not just cosmetics lines that have just added a few mineral makeup products to their mix.

11 opinions for Mineral Makeup - What is your Favorite?

    I think it is hard to choose.

    One thing I can say is their concealer and color correction powders work great for dark circles because you can control the coverage with layering.

    I love mineral make up and I don’t really pay attention to the brand.

    I pay more attention to things like whether or not there is any bismuth oxychloride in them, because it can be irritating. The next thing I look at is whether or not they have all natural colors or have DC&C colors, which are actually man made.

    Two mineral makeup companies that I have come across that do not have bismuth oxychloride:

    Erth Mineral Makeup (http://www.lushbrush.com/)
    Have not actually tried this one, but it looks like it has some nice colors.

    Beauty Bliss Cosmetics (http://www.beautyblisscosmetics.com/)
    I actually use this brand, and have found it to be very nice. Good color selection, and they have been adding more since I started going to them.

    I hope this helps those people with sensitivities to bismuth oxychloride, and Teri to find more brands to look into for reviews ^_^.

    I currently use Lumiere. They’re fantastic and really helpful. I didn’t know what color I would be, so i sent the owner a e-mail with my MAC colors and a general idea of my coloring. Both of the samples I got (in one of the best sample kits I’ve ever gotten) are pretty dead-on.

    I currently use those from Erth Mineral Makeup and I’m a happy with the results, especially their foundation. But I have to qualify that I haven’t tried other brands of MMU before.

    Crush Groove Mineral Makeup-I am currently using this mmu in Cocoa Latte-Red, this line is vegan, it contains no mica, or preservatives. This line is made with herbs, and other natural, vegan treats! It is not your ordinary run of the mill mineral makeup. The best thing about it, it does not add a false glow/shine to the skin-kiss the sheen from mmu goodbye!
