Pros:

- matte finish. it's good if you don't want a foundation that is "shimmery". no particles in it that "shine"
- after 1 or 2 hours, really blends with skin and looks natural
- no breakouts, my skin improved

Cons:

- after 8 hours, it looks cakey. even if you use the foundation and powder sparingly, if you have any wrinkles or deep acne scars, this makeup just sits in it!
- it wipes off really easily. like it's sitting "above" your skin. Whenever I wipe my mouth or blow my nose, it looks horrible. You have to immediately touch up.

I've tried a few foundations: L'oreal, Lancome, Almay, Marcelle, Arbonne, Mary Kay. This one is meh...okay. I think Jane Iredale makes me look 10 yrs older, but my acne has definitely calmed down since I started using it.

Pros:

- Non-irritating
- Luminous finish, which is nice during the winter but makes me look blindingly glowing during sweaty summer months

Cons:

- Breaks me out in tiny bumps all on cheeks during both 3-month periods that I've used it
- Drying (like most mineral powder)
- Absurdly expensive. $50 for mineral powder??! The folks at Jane Iredale must be laughing all the way to the bank.

Absolutely not worth the money. Have tried nearly every mineral powder on the market and am not a fan in general. (The best is Alima Pure.)
