Love my Being True Medium 1 Pressed Compact
2/2/2011 1:05:07 PM
I've tried so many makeup lines, and this is my favorite ever! I use the tinted moisturizer first, then using a compact sponge (from CG brand, or whatever) , I pat the compact minerals on my face. What it does for me is:
1-hides my melasma from pregnancy
2-covers breakouts
3-doesn't clog pores
4-doesn't feel cakey--ever!
5-feels like perfect coverage all the time
6-easy to clean off
7-I never have to reapply during the day
8-etc
Other brands I compared this with were:
Colorscience--horrible, horrible, horrible (did I say horrible?). This is the worst makeup line ever-cakey, heavy, poor coverage, creases, etc. Don't ever use it, it's a waste of money.
Bare Minerals--this is still pretty cakey and heavy on the skin, causing streakiness if you touch your face. I would use it if it's all I had, but prefer not to.
Youngblood--heavy! This stuff gets into every pore and within minutes seems to accentuate oiliness, pores, and imperfections like fine lines. I do not like this at all!
Anyway, since I've found Being True, I cannot go back to any other makeup, period.
