No. 11: Pur Minerals 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Makeup/Foundation, $24.50

TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.8*
Why it's great: "I was impressed with Pur because the color was true to their descriptions and the ease of applying and the time saved was incredible. It truly is a great concealer as I have spider veins, pimples, and this does a much better job than Bare Escentuals -- and I don't use loose powder anymore. Great value and lasts throughout the day." -- Tracey777, TotalBeauty.com member

I have tried bare minerals and glo. Bare minerals really doesn't cover much. Its great if you dont have any problems with your skin. If you have acne and scars you should go with glo minerals. Its a bit more pricey but it gives a much better coverage and doesn't leave you shinny through out the day like bare minerals!

I love Bare Minerals. It works great especially in warm weather.

I have to agree with this moneral makeup stuff! It does not give you that 'air brushed' look that's for sure! Although I do love the eyeliner,eyeshadow, and bronzer. I have a few laugh lines and am getting fairly large pores and the only thing that the foundation does is make them stand out even more, LOL! Unless I am doing it wrong and if I am someone please tell me what to do!

Lancome's mineral powder is great. I have dry combo skin and its awesome. I have their brush as well. Its a lil pricey but you dont need allott and it stays all day!

I'm surprised there isn't anything on Everyday Minerals on there. They used to have a big following until all the strange changes started happening. There are also other good Mineral makeup companies out there like Silk Naturals, Adorned with Grace and Lucy Minerals. There are so many other good companies out there with pretty good products.
