The Best Foundation
I tried every foundation out there, and this is by far the best. I've been using it on my oily skin for two years. It gets excellent coverage and feels very lightweight (I had a small bottle of their primer once but I found it was unnecessary). This product is expensive, but it's absolutely worth the money. I wear it every day and one compact lasts about 2-3 months.

Pros:

Covers scarring PERFECTLY without concealer
Feels really light on skin
Super easy to put on

Cons:

none

I use the 4 in 1 Pur Minerals on top of a primer. It's the BEST product I have ever used. I don't have many red pimples, but I do have dark patches on my skin from scars. With liquid foundations I have to stack on the concealer to cover the scars. With this product, it miraculously covers them with a light application. I've never been a fan of powders, but this was given to me for my birthday present so I gave it a go. I'm so impressed I'm never using another product again!

Pros:

Great coverage
Controls oil
Best for younger skin
Doesn't "stick" to dry flakes

Cons:

Not good for older skin
Highlights developing wrinkles
Can be drying
Expensive

I have been very impressed with the coverage it delivers; I really didn't think a powder could do what it does. And it doesn't highlight flaky areas around healing blemishes the way most liquid foundations to. When I first apply it, though, it's so drying that I feel like my face looks 'crunchy' and crepey. I'm 34 and don't have any real wrinkles yet, but when first applied, this product makes me look like I do. By afternoon, when my face would normally be super-shiny (read: gross), it controls the oil very well and takes on a better, more dewy look. I've never tried another mineral makeup, so I can't offer any brand comparisons.

Pros:

Great coverage
Excellent skin-tone match (better than liquid foundations I have used)
Ideal coverage alone but have also used it over liquid foundation
Doesn't make me break out
Also available with SPF

Cons:

Isn't readily available at drug or grocery stores
A little pricey
Travel size that comes with the 4-piece starter kit gets used up quickly!
A little concerned about keeping the brush clean

This is the best foundation I've ever used including liquid and powder foundations. I'd highly recommend trying it-- I bought the four-piece starter kit in order to test the right shade for my skin tone. I have always used heavy amounts of liquid foundation in order to conceal my acne and to combat mid-day oil and shine, but Pur Minerals is good at making my skin look clear and stay clear, and keeps shine to a minimum.

Pros:

Easy and quick to apply, good coverage, doesn't break me out, love the way it feels.

Cons:

None really- I worry about keeping the brush clean.

Best foundation I've tried in a while. Doesn't cake or dry out like other mineral powders and isn't messy.

Pros:

light, doesnt feel like makeup
does not leave a shininess
doesn't look or feel like you have makeup on
beautiful finish without caking on makeup

Cons:

none

I love this makeup. I used to use a Physicians formula powder with a concealer underneath, but it always felt really heavy, and it always highlighted the dryness around my mouth and forehead. This makeup has a wonderful feel and doesn't look like anything. It also hides scars and breakouts well, and lasts all day. I love the product.

Covers my acne great
This powder covers acne amazingly, it doesn't break me out either! I just wish that it didn't looked too cakey on my skin :/
