Adverse Effects

Benefits
The fact that it is minerals, not chemicals, is nice! Also like the mineral veil!

Drawbacks
break-outs, made skin appear more dry & wrinkles more apparent

Details
I did not like this make-up, but that is just my personal experience. I don't know why, but everytime I use it - I break out. Also, I consider myself to have normal/combination skin, but when I put this make-up on it looks so dry! Honestly, it looks as if I aged 6-7 years! I am just beginning to get some fine lines on my forehead and under my eyes (I am 30), but when I put this make up on... they become VERY apparent!! YUCK! When I remove it or use a liquid foundation... it doesn't look like I have any at all (but I know I secretly do!!). I have a friend with more oily skin and she seems to like it. Though, my other friend with normal, pretty skin tried it and also prefers a liquid. So, maybe if this came in liquid form it might work for me, but for now... I will be passing on a powder for my sole foundation. (Though, I must admit I love the mineral veil for atop my liquid foundation - looks really nice!)

Conclusions
good for younger (teens/early 20's) OR oily skin, but not for normal to dry skin types.
