FOF cosmetologist Annie Mayo is giving away five loose powder foundations from her line, Advanced Mineral Makeup. Enter to win by answering in the comments below: Have you ever tried mineral makeup?
What was your first job? Immediately out of beauty school, FOF Annie Mayo got a job applying makeup on Hollywood hunk Patrick Dempsey in the movie “Can’t Buy Me Love.” You’d think it would be hard to top that, but, Annie did. She went on to enjoy a successful career as a makeup artist working on prestigious events such as the Miss Universe Pageant 1990, where she was the head coordinator for all hair and makeup. She applied makeup to former athletes Joe Nameth and Tony Dorsett, as well as sportscaster Chris Berman, hosts of the 1996 Super Bowl, as well as sportscaster and former pro-football player Ahmad Rashad when he hosted the 2001 World Series.
In her late thirties, Annie decided to put her career temporarily on hold. “I used to go from movie set to movie set [doing makeup],” says Annie, ” but stopped because in 2001 I had a son.” Annie went part-time and as she began working with a number of mineral makeup lines, she couldn’t help notice one major flaw–the lack of color options. “I always felt that conventional makeup had much better choices,” says Annie. Wondering why no one had come out with a mineral makeup line that had a better selection of colors, Annie set out to start her own.
Annie met different manufacturers in 2006 and began working to formulate her dream line of mineral cosmetics that same year. “I wanted my line to actually improve the skin,” says Annie. “Women are getting facials, lasering, but then they’re also using all of these chemicals found in conventional makeup, like talc and dye, to their skin.” Annie’s resulting mineral cosmetic line, Advanced Mineral Makeup, is free of chemicals, dyes, talc or preservatives. She designed the colors of her mineral products to mesh with the skin. “In my makeup the undertones of the foundation work with the undertones of the skin,” says Annie. “I don’t have any pink tones in my foundation, because it doesn’t look natural. I created my makeup to be neutral.”
Advanced Mineral Makeup launched in September of 2009, and has already sold thousands of products. It was recently featured as the DaySpa Reader’s Choice for mineral makeup in the Spring 2012 issue of DaySpa magazine. Annie’s line is available for purchase in the offices of plastic surgeons and dermatologists, as well as resorts and spas all over the U.S. Her website, AdvancedMineralMakeup.com, carries her full line, and ships anywhere in the United States.
“It’s a great product for everyone,” says Annie, “And it has specific benefits for women over fifty as well. As we get older, our hormones diminish and our skin becomes more dry and wrinkled. This mineral makeup actually reflects light, making your skin feel more beautiful, radiant and hydrated.” There’s an added bonus for those who don’t like to feel like they’re wearing a face full of makeup. “Advanced Mineral Makeup is really lightweight,” says Annie, “So no matter how many layers you have on, you’re not going to feel like you have a lot of makeup on your skin.”
Enter to win a loose mineral powder from Advanced Mineral Makeup by answering this question in the comments below: Have you ever tried mineral makeup?
Five FOFs will win. (See all our past winners, here.) (See official rules, here.) Contest closes September 6th, 2012 at midnight E.S.T.

Melissa says:
Yes. I have tried Jane Iredale…I liked it, but the color never seemed quie right. I need coverage for broken capillaries and sun spots – AND sunscreen!
Terri Rakestraw says:
Yes. I have tried Bare Minerals and Shear Cover. Most of them are too yellow for my skin which is light but has a lot of red in it.
brooke says:
heard this Mineral Powder was best for oiley skin from a friend exactly what i need
sharon says:
yes, and i love it
Kris Coghlan says:
I have never tried Mineral Makeup. Since I turned 60 in July, and after reading the above – that it has specific benefits for women over 50 – I am very anxious to try it.
Bobbie Meredith says:
Yes. I have been using Bare Minerals for a few years.
I would very much like to try your product.
momzworkin says:
I have used mineral make up before , but by a leading lower priced national line solf in drugstores. I would love to try something from a company that specializes in them.
KAREN COGBURN says:
No. This would be my 1st time for this product
a1nettie says:
I have tried mineral make up (sheer cover and bareminerals)I used for a while, but started to become cakey and drying
Melissa Fraher says:
I would love to try this!
Liz says:
I have not tried mineral makeup. Would love to try. Have been hesitant as I have uneven skintone. How’s the coverage?
Kimberley Thomas says:
I have had a good experience with bareminerals. I like the mineral composition. My skin is natural looking and at 50 it is my preferance to liquids. I would love to try advanced mineral makeup !
margaracantu says:
i own a couple of mineral based eye shadows, and i must say, I LOVE THEM! id love to try the loose powder as well!
jenni104 says:
I have tried it and now I’m hooked! It is the only kind I will use anymore, the liquids just look so horrible compared to the mineral on me. I am trying all kinds of mineral ones now, love them, but don’t have a complete favorite I just have to have one yet. Maybe this is it?
SGAwalkvt says:
I’m terrible about make-up…should wear foundation but don’t. Always felt it was too hard to apply correctly and get the proper color. I just recently started looking at mineral powder make-up from Bare Essentials and Jane Iredale. I like the concept of just brushing it all on (I’m sure there is a proper way for it to be done) and having a more natural look. But, I also assume you need some type of bronzer or blush as well…or you’d look all one color. Anyway…I’ve been looking but haven’t had a test run yet…not sure I want to invest if it doesn’t work. I’d love the opportunity to test this Advanced Mineral Makeup…Annie sounds like she knows her stuff and I’m impressed there are more “colors” to make sure you get the right tone. This would give me the perfect opportunity to try mineral make up and practice the application. I’d love to do this…the kick in the *&%& I need!!!!
Gefield says:
Yes, I have tried a couple. I could not wear one due to the bismuth. Did fine with the other. Would love to try yours, it looks really nice!
Pamela Dollar says:
Please, i need to try this! i have Lupus and must avoid the sun! i need a makeup like this to give me some color!
Judith Miller says:
I’ve never tried it but I;ve heard great things about it. I would love to try it.
VMAH says:
I have not tried mineral makeup but I do like loose powders.
deborahf2 says:
Yes,tried Bare Minerals, but as over 50 thought too aging…this line sounds more age appropriate and would love to win the giveaway…
liliMarlene says:
I’ve used mineral foundations and veils for the last six years. They are the only ones that don’t turn a nasty orange color after a few hours–my skin is pretty oily.
They take some use getting used to the application technique–but I really love the way my skin looks after using them.
fhoagland says:
Yes, I’ve tried several brands of mineral makeup. I love the natural look it gives and the light feeling it gives.
KAREN COGBURN says:
No. I have been wanting to but have not yet. Please pick me.
Claudia Taormina says:
I have tried eight different kinds of mineral makeup. The worst offender was the bare minerals, oxidized, settled into fine lines and left me shiny like a disco ball. I did find one that I like, wonderful coverage for rosacea and works great for skin with psoriasis & eczema. Would love to find another mineral makeup that works just as well so I can have options. I like knowing that if I get lazy and don’t remove the mineral foundation I won’t wake up the next morning with plugged up pores and inflamed skin.
Yumsy L. says:
Not yet. Would love to try it.
Marie says:
I have been fighting the urge to try mineral based makeup for a couple of years. I want to try it but am afraid to bite the bullet…..”What if I invest $$$$$ to purchase it and do not like it….” How do I explain another cosmetic purchase that I do not use to my husband? Again? Use me for a tester – PLEASE.
Sherry B. says:
I’ve tried a couple of the less expensive brands in the past, but they didn’t work very well for me. Guess you get what you pay for!
Eve T says:
It sounds like a good choice to me. I have one inexpensive brand that I thought was a powder type bronzer but perhaps it is not the same type of ingredients.
Judie Paranuk says:
I would love to try this kind of make up…..send it to me to try!!!
Susan Bell says:
Yes, I currently use Bare Minerals and would like to try this one out!
Lesley says:
I have tried it and love the natural, healthy look, great coverage minus the shine!

Yes, I love it!
Sherril Theis says:
I haven’t tried mineral makeup before, but am definitely intersted.
ccndd says:
I’ve tried Bare Minerals in the past and like it but after a couple of months it stops looking good for whatever reason. Always interested in trying something news.

I have not tried mineral makeup yet but would love to try this one!
Debi says:
Yes, I’ve used BareMinerals for years and love the feeling of having almost no makeup on. Would love to try a new product that might take its place.
msortet says:
Not a fan of the loose powder. I tried a sample of Bareminerals but couldn’t stand the makeup dust that fell onto my clothes and bathroom counter. It was hard to wipe off and left stains. I’m allergic to preservatives so maybe I should give the loose powder a second try with Annie’s version!
Minna Siegel says:
great prize
Dana Miller says:
I have used bare minerals. I find they are lighter feeling on my face. I do not have breakouts with its use.
bison61 says:

KAREN COGBURN says:
No. I need to try this as I have heard positive results.
Carol Fuller says:
I have never tried mineral make-up, but my daughter has and she loves it and looks great. I would love to try it, but hate buying some things that you have no idea if it will do the job for you and end up throwing them away. I would love to give it a try and any other items that need testing to get the proper responses.
niyatori47 says:
I have never use mineral makeup, but I have used a powder form makeup, and I prefer it. It seems to be lighter than other types of makeup.
Carla Pullum says:
I have never tried it!

Have never tried mineral makeup, but would like to see if it makes a difference on my skin.
betsy cortez says:
yes, bare escentuals
Amy A says:
Yes but nothing works well for my oily, acne prone skin. Can never find the right shade either. Looking for the perfect makeup for my wedding day. Would love to try this!
travelgirl says:
Yes, I have tried mineral make-up, and I LOVE IT! I have not tried this brand, but I am definitely interested in trying this one. Mineral make-up seems to give a much more natural look. I cannot stand to wear any liquid foundations or things like that, as they all seem too heavy for me.
AlvaFay@msn.com says:
Would love to try this out! I am looking for something not heavy that blends well with my natural skin tone for a smooth, soft finish. Please and Thank you!
KAREN COGBURN says:
No I have not. Would love to take part
MARY K says:
Yes, I use mineral makeup most of the time.
Dorothy Campbell says:
No, but I would love to give it a try.
alison k says:
Have you ever tried mineral makeup?
No have never tried mineral makeup but have heard what wonderful things it can do. Would enjoy winning one, thanks 🙂
mimi says:
Yes. I LOVE mineral makeup. It goes on so smooth and I think it’s more natural-looking.
buneface says:
No, I have never tried any type of mineral make-up because I have had difficulty believing that it will provide the coverage I need. I am very curious about it though as I am finding that my liquid foundation is settling into my wrinkles and making them more noticeable as I am aging. I would love the opportunity to try Advanced Mineral Make-up. I am definitely in the market for a better alternative for my aging face than my old, heavy, liquid foundation.
Maureen says:
Yes, I have tried mineral makeup – Bare Minerals actually.
Wasn’t too impressed. Not that great on my 50 yr old skin.
MRS ROSY VINCENT says:
yes i have tried mineral make-up but didnt work up still i would like to try it i have an oily skin
KAREN COGBURN says:
No. I have been anxious to try mineral products so this would be great.
imelda says:
Currently I’m using Alima Pure loose powder mineral make up. This brand is also for purists. I would like to test this Advanced Mineral Make up especially if it will stay inspite of oily skin.
Judy says:
I have never tried a mineral makeup, but would love to! I get so confused as to which one to buy, I just don’t buy any!
hofken says:
I have tried mineral makeup before, but the coverage was too sheer for my age. Maybe this is better.
Paula says:
I’ve tried several brands but feel like they make lines/wrinkles more visible. Would love to try this one!
Susan says:
I used mineral makeup many years ago and loved it. Since getting more “wrinkly” I didn’t think it looked as nice so went to liquid foundations. Would love to try it again.
Kristin says:
Yes, I’ve been using mineral make-up for years. I use a face powder blended by a woman who owns a very small business in Florida. Evan’s Garden focuses on organic, healthy skincare and beauty, and I love her products. I’m close to being out of what I have, though, and would love to try something new.
JeanniePage says:
Yes, I’ve tried bare Minerals but it seemed to look chalky on my skin. I had the right color, as I purchased in one of their stores, but just never could get it to look “natural”. Also, after a few hours, felt my skin looked flaky and dry, and I don’t have dry skin.
Georgiegirl says:
Yes, I use Bare Minerals every day and love it.
Pat says:
I first tried mineral make-up when it became popular, but honestly do not always use it exclusively.
maxie says:
I have tried mineral makeup before but found that the coverage was not especially good. Would love to give this a try. Send it my way.
Diana Tenes says:
I’m a Pro Makeup Artist, and this might be a good solution
for me to use. I use mineral makeup on myself but don’t for my clients as most seem to be too drying or flat looking.
eddyrobey says:
No, I’ve never used mineral makeup.
WLONGMAN says:
I’ve used Bare Minerals for several years until age sucked the last drops of moisture from my skin and the minerals just settled in the dry gullies. I loved the lightness and coverage of mineral foundation and would love to see this new line bring life back to the “desert”!
JoAnn says:
Yes, I use Mineral Makeup…love it!
lee lewis says:
yes i have tried other brands, but the colors were not right or did not seem to last on my skin.i am fair skin splash of freckles, red hair. other makeup products seem to lay in the wrinkles or areas you do not want the public to see. i would love to try yours, thank you
Anne says:
I’ve tried mineral makeup but I usually avoid it because it makes me look older around my eyes. I would love to try Advanced to see if I have better results.
CarolineZ says:
I have only tried mineral makeup once. Did not like it. I felt like it accented my wrinkles. Would love to try this to see if it is different.

I have never tried mineral makeup and I would be interest in trying a makeup that is free of chemicals, dyes, talc or preservatives.

Kathy Greaves says:
Yes I have tried a couple different brands of mineral makeup but they seemed to make my face look dry and it was difficult finding the right shade (I have very fair skin). I would love to try Advanced Mineral Makeup!

Iactually haven’t, but I would like to.
Debra Simning-Chapman says:

Oh yes I’ve tried mineral makesups… Jane Iredale & Bare Escentuals most recently and a couple before that!!!
Mary in MN says:
I have not tried mineral makeup. I stopped wearing foundation when we moved to Minnesota – too thick, wrong colors, doesn’t feel right anymore 🙁
I really would like to try the Advanced Mineral line, because I am tired of not feeling finished and at my best when I am out with my hubby and friends and family. It would be great to feel that feeling of completeness again.
Tammy Schlitter says:
Tried it, used it, will not use anything else! Love mineral powder – coverage is fantastic yet natural looking.
Mel says:
No, I’ve never tried mineral makeup, but would love to!
Maureen O'Neal says:
I TRIED it, but only once or twice, and my BRUSH wasn’t quite right, and the APPLICATION made me look like a GHOST!! so I’d like to try this, and find out how to do it right!
Dimitra says:
No, I have never tried mineral makeup! Would love to!
Laura Borud says:
I think I had a mineral bronzer before. Anything that would help slow down the aging process in my skin I’m eager to try! Especially since I’m seeing a younger man, whoohoo!
JENNIFER HART says:
I HAVE NEVER TRIED MINERAL MAKE-UP. I HAVE BEEN READING MORE ABOUT IT RECENTLY AND HAVE BECOME MORE INTERESTED ESPECIALLY IN THE TYPES THAT PROTECT YOU FROM THE SUN. -THANKS
JAN says:
Have tried several mineral makeup brands and love the feel and look of mineral. As a 54 (soon 55!), I have to be careful what I wear or it makes me look old – and I’m not ready to be old!
Connie Williamson says:
I’ve never tried any mineral makeup, but have always wanted to! I’m hoping this is my moment! I do have rosacea. I’m hoping that doesn’t matter.
Marilyn Montague says:
I have tried mineral makeup but not this one. I have seemed to notice it dries my skin out.
Beth Lowe says:
I have tried mineral powder and it seems to be great for my skin and looks great too. I’m sure it was not near the quality as Advanced Mineral Makeup.
Diane says:
No, I haven’t tried mineral make-up, yet.
Danise Workman says:
I like the pureness of mineral makeup on my skin. It is fresh and clean and very natural looking.
fair_elaine@comcast.net says:
I’ve tried mineral powder make-up when it first came out and liked it, I just wasn’t sure I was getting the coverage I needed. Now that I’m older and need less coverage. I’d like to try it again!
sonsethues says:
I’ve tried it and like the over all affect, but need to figure out how to prepare my skin for the product so my skin doesn’t look so dry.
Helen R says:
I have tried mineral makeup. Haven’t found quite the right shade yet. Would love to try another product to get the correct shade.
Muzzik says:
I have enjoyed using different brands of mineral makeup. Annie is right in that many available brands don’t seem to have a natural selection of color. When she said there are no pink tones because they don’t look natural, I hope it does not mean the colors she offers are all warm tones. I have cool tone skin color and pink looks rosy and natural on me. I’d like to try her product as a comparison to currently available ones.
Kai W. says:
Yes I have.
smfsprout says:
I have not tried mineral makeup, but I would like to give this a try.
beth weatherford says:
i have tried it, but the brand i tried, made my skin look oily. i have have many friends that love it, maybe i tried the wrong brand.
pat michko says:
I have tried some mineral foundation, but would love to try this one.
laurie says:
I don’t use anything else!! It lets my skin breathe. I hate a heavy feel and now that I a 56 I could use a little extra hydration.
RitaMaria says:
No, I have never tried this.
Mia says:
Yes I have but I didn’t quite get the technique yet.
lisa fulginiti says:
I have tried two different mineral makeups. The brands I have used are Bare Minerals and Colorscience. I like them both quite well. The do not accentuate my facial lines, nor do they cause breakouts. They feel lightweight on my skin. I would really love to try the Advanced Mineral brand and see how it compares to those I have already used.
Gail says:
Yes have tried like the idea of good for you and no pinks
disgusted says:
It’s the only thing I use, would love to try and see if this brand is better!
Robin Sheeran says:
I have tried other mineral make ups and love them. I would like to try this one before I would buy it. I have neurofibromatosis and I worry it would make them look worse. Believe me they do not need any help, but I have beautiful green eyes and I am happy and healthy so who cares? I am 62 and look around 48!! I would still like to try this brand of mineral make up.
Thanks
elr says:
have never tried mineral products
kellykat says:
no,I’ve never tried a mineral make-up. I do not use facepowder because my skin is very dry—-I do understand that mineral make-up is not powder & I’d really love to try it before I invest in another make-up product that that doesn’t work on pale,dry,older skin. thank you for the chance to do that.
S Kay DeGroot says:
Yes, I have tried some that contained chemicals and my skin got irritated. Would love to try a chemical free product, this looks like what I’m looking for.

I use a mineral eye concealer and am open to using other mineral products.
Lindsay says:
I have, but just for color. I have a mineral eyeshadow pack. The colors aren’t the most flattering for me (it was a gift) so I don’t use them often. I’d love to try mineral makeup that matches me well!
Catherine says:
The first time I tried mineral makeup, it was more like painting my face with paint. The next time I tried it wasn’t as bad, but you are right, they do not have many colors, I look like a ghost.
Christine says:
have never tried using mineral makeup
elizabeth says:
Yes, but it started caking as I got older and I had to start using liquid makeup. I would like to try this one, maybe it is formulated better.
Bonnie Harper says:

Susan says:
I have been using mineral foundation for years (Bare Minerals … primarily based on a recommendation years ago). I am interested in trying a new line. For anyone who travels a great deal (as I do), the mineral foundations are wonderful — easy to transport in small quantities … and don’t count towards what is in the one quart baggie.
Nonnie says:
The only one I’ve tried and still use is Bare Minerals but it just doesn’t last! 🙁

I have tried mineral makeup. This lightweight makeup sounds great. I’d love to try it!

Mary Ann says:
I have tried mineral makeup and I like it.
Denise Scoppetta says:
I love mineral makeup! It gives outstanding coverage (I have rosacea) and feels so good on my skin. I would love to try this brand, as the one that I am using right now isn’t quite doing the job…and it’s a 2-step system, which I’d like to streamline.
ellen schull says:

I’ve tried one of the mineral makeups out there and still use it occasionally when I do wear makeup. Never quite covers as well I hope it will tho.
Ianete says:
Yes. I used Bare Essentials (sp?) and a Wal-Mart brand. I liked the concept but the colors didn’t match my skin. Perhaps this product would, and the idea of keeping chemicals off my skin is certainly appealing.
Merrill says:
I LOVE mineral makeup! It stays on my semi-oily skin, does not dry it out and virtually never cakes up on me. Makes a flawless finish on my face!
Tina says:
I have, and I love the natural, light look.

I’ve given up on liquids. I really would like to try this mineral makeup to see if it works well for me.
Jana Hayes says:
Yes I have and I love the coverage you get with it. As little as you want or as much as you want.
gshep says:
I have not tried the mineral powder before , but have tried mineral eye shadows and liked them.
Debra Sl says:
YES I have tried it I think it is a common drug store brand. I did not like that one, it was too… shiny? I dunno how to describe it, but it did not erase the oil shine on my nose, and it was too light. Make me look like a shiny Geisha or something. It’s now in the kid’s dress up makeup box.

yes, I have tried mineral make-up but have yet to be Sold on how it looks and covers. I’d like to find that one great product!
Patti stern says:
Yes, I have tried Mineral Makeup before .i felt as though it crept into my lines around my eyes. I don’t know if it was the brand or lack of Botox! I would welcome the chance to have my face grace your product!
cathylwood says:
I’ve tried a couple of brands of mineral makeup, with varying results. I love the idea of it — it’s lightweight, gentle and light-reflecting. However, despite all claims, I think it does tend to settle into pores and fine lines. Or, at least, you need a deft hand to apply it successfully to an FOF face! I’m always looking for that perfect makeup — isn’t that part of the fun? — and would love to try this one.
Carole Lehr Johnson says:
Would love to try some ‘healthy’ makeup!
beth says:
yes, I have tried BE minerals before, but this sounds good too!!

No, but I have wanted to try it! I have a friend that wears it and she always looks fabulous! Pick Me!
Audrey says:
I have tried mineral make-up in the past. i like the coverage and the natural look of it.
Elisse says:
I’ve tried Jane Iridale and liked it… when it’s done right it does have enough coverage and looks great. I bought less expensive ones from elf, however, and they didn’t give me enough coverage…Would love to try this!
Jacquie says:
I’ve tried Bare Minerals and was very disappointed also another one that I can’t remember. Perhaps it’s how I apply it so this would be a great chance to try again. I do struggle with foundation in the summer, too heavy but I need something.
MoonRae says:
I’ve tried a few….maybe this one would work for me
BlueBear says:
Yes, I’ve tried Bare Minerals. My problem is how fair I am and I have dry skin and wrinkles. I don’t want to try a yellow or anything else. I’m literally white as a ghost & I’d appreciate something that is just neutral and doesn’t sit in my wrinkles, particularly around the eyes.
campton says:
Never tried mineral makeup of any kind. Would love to find out if it works!
Tfabglam5 says:
I would love to try this loose powder mineral makeup formulation — it sounds like it performs better than the rest of the mineral makeup lines out there. I have yet to find the perfect mineral foundation, so it would be a privilege to try this brand that was voted the best by DaySpa magazine.
Sue says:
I haven’t tried it, but would love to!
Marcie says:
Thanks for the chance to win, mineral makeup feels so light, it is my favorite
sharon says:
Always wanted to try but afraid of collection of powder in fine lines around my eyes. Would love to be the person to sing the praises of mineral makeup on old 61 yr. old droopy eyes.

Yes, I have used Bare Essentuals for years and love it. I’d be really interested to see the difference of this product. I’m really pale with blue undertones in my skin so no pink would be great!
kathryn davis says:
No, I haven’t tried this product, but I would love to.
Janice says:
Have tried other mineral makeup and found it to be drying. Would love to give this a try tho because I do love the idea of makeup that is healthy for the skin!
JM says:
Never tried it.
Ann Russell says:
I have tried some and felt that they completely covered my skin rather than enhanced my skin. I’m not looking for pancake makeup. I want it to glide over my skin to fill in small imperfections and create a glow. These days it takes longer and longer to look natural!!
vasslt says:
No I have never tried it, but would love to.
Suzy Reschke says:
I have tried Bare Minerals but it didn’t feel good on my skin. I would love to give this new one a try.
Tammy Allen says:
I have never tried mineral makeup because I did not think it would have a lot of coverage. I have under eye circles and some blemish spots that I cover so I use a heavier foundation.
Tina Ashton says:
Have not tried mineral makeup as yet but keen to give it a go. Gave up wearing liquid foundation when having a facial the girl told me it was clogging my pores and I should be using a powder instead. Perhaps this is the answer I seek as I do need some coverage but still love a natural healthy look.
sher says:
Yes, I have tried Bare Minerals makeup and I loved the feel of it on my skin but I did not get the coverage I need. I also felt like I looked a ittle washed out.

Mineral makeup is the only makeup I can use because my skin is so darned sensitive!
Lynn says:
yes, I’ve tried mineral makeup and have had a varying measure of success. The Napoleon skin primer has helped a lot as far as keeping the mineral powder on through the day. I will shortly see if it has staying power under stage lights. I’d love to try your powder!
Carol says:
No but would love to
Cindy says:
No, I’ve never tried mineral make up. It looks messy.
Katie Longoria says:
I have tried so many mineral makeups! That’s all I use. I love the coverage and the feel on my skin. The one I have liked the best was made for a small boutique that has recently closed. I was a devoted customer and have been going crazy trying to find a mineral makeup that I love as much. The fact that yours is “good for your skin” is a very big draw. I would really love the opportunity to try it out!
joyzkim says:
Yes, I have tried Bare Escentuals….
KAREN COGBURN says:
No. Would love to test.
Fab55 says:
Yes, I have tried several versions, but nothing that made me go out and buy it again… Obviously I am intrigued by the notion of a powder foundation, but just haven’t found the right one… perhaps this one will be my Pot of Gold 🙂

I’ll try anything once.

Debbie Chaney says:
My skin needs help!
ruta fox says:
Yes, I love mineral foundation. I am a big foundation fan, and have tried so many. As I get older, I notice the liquid ones just don’t last the entire day. My skin is not oily, but the powder foundation is so much easier to use and I think it lasts longer. Gives a flawless finish.
I have tried Bare Escentuals and Neutrogena, but would love to try this one, in my search for the perfect canvas!
Marsha Depace says:
Always looking for something good looking and good for my skin.

Yes, I’ve tried mineral makeup. Loved it until I hit my 50s. It then started settling into my lines & pores. Would love to try Advanced Mineral Makeup to see if it works better!
Michelle says:
I have tried several mineral make up lines and would love to try this one!
Donna says:
I tried Pur Minerals and Laura Mercier. Pur Minerals did not work for me. Laura Mercier blush and eye colors I liked a little better. I have rosacea with sensitive skin, so looking for a brand to use that works well and looks appropriate on my skin.

I love makeup, and love trying new brands! I would love to try this!

newtoy42 says:
Tried mineral makeuP before. Some really irritate my skin would really like to it
Rachel B. says:
I’ve tried bareminerals but couldn’t use because bismuth oxychloride gave me a rash (and made my skin look too shiny). My skin is very sensitive, but at 50 years old, I need coverage for broken capillaries. I love the idea of mineral makeup.
marcia padilla says:
No I have never tried this certain mineral product but others, looking for just the right combination for my skin condition and color.
