What mineral makeup do yall think is best? The only makeup I wear is foundation, lip gloss, eyeliner, and mascara. I'm using Bare Minerals foundation but wondering if there is anything better or lower priced. Thanks.

CoverFX is the best stuff you can get atlest I think so. Its farelly expensive. Its 35 bucks but so well worth it.

Veggie Girl's 'Crush' Mineral foundation powder is fab. Send her a pm and she will send you a sample.

I'm happy with Bare Minerals but I'm willing to try new brands. How much does her sample cost?

I'm not sure what she charges now - when she was first setting up she sent some free, but even if she is charging now it will be a very small amount. I paid less than $30 for 2 of the largest size foundation pots, including shipping to the UK.
I haven't used other mineral make up (switched straight from liquid) but decided to try Veggie Girl's make up when lots of other people on here recommended it. They'd tried other brands first and preferred Veggie Girl's. I'd never go back to liquid foundation now - mineral make up looks so much more natural, stays on really well, and doesn't break me out at all.

Even Bare Minerals looks flaky on my skin 
After I started my tretinoin prescription, no makeup seems to go smoothly on my face. Help me out, girls.....

The key to using mineral makeup is to make sure you mositurize pretty well before using it. I'm on 'tane right now and didn't moisturize this morning before applying my MMU and it looks like CRAP. I look like my face is about to flake off.
That's what I get for being lazy!

Well I exfoliate, moisturize, wipe off the excess, apply my primer, then it goes and stays on perfectly.

Isn't exfoliating everyday somewhat harsh for the face? What do you exfoliate with and which primer do you use?

veggie girl's makeup is awesome! you have seriously got to try it. her prices range from 5-11 USD, which in my opinion is the cheapest makeup ever.

Yall should ask her to start her own Ebay business. She could make a living with it I'm sure.
