Askmewhats Reviews: Mineraux Skin Perfecting Mineral Foundation

A couple of months ago, I've attended the Mineraux Launch and posted about their site being fully operational comes June! The month is July! As I took a peek at their site, I am so happy it's fully operational! Check out www.mineraux.com.ph!

Pros

• Medium to full coverage, depending on your application
• no allergies and doesn't irritate my skin
• doesn't leave my dry skin drier
• matte but at the same time exudes a nice "glow"
• locally available
• affordable as a little product goes a long way
• evens out uneven skin tone
• many shades to choose from
• website: Uses real life photos, easier to check out the shades
• website: easy to navigate and very easy to the eyes
  

Cons

• if you have very oily skin, retouching is needed as I have dry skin but I see the sites of my nose oil up a bit after half a day
  

Overall

This is part of my daily mineral foundation rotation between Ellana (my favorite) and Joppa (another favorite), since I lightened up a bit due to the rainy season, I alternate Ellana and Mineraux Foundation because the shades are more matched!

Mineraux Skin Perfecting Mineral Foundation is definitely promising and it's a wonderful fact that it's a local brand. Though the products are sourced from suppliers in the US and Canada, it is nice to know that each product are chosen with the basis of Pinay needs!

I don't want to be quoted but I would compare the texture of the Mineraux Foundation to somewhat similar to Joppa Foundation. The same heavy coverage it can give with a very light feel! (this is my opinion)

With the price and cheap shipping rate as you purchase it locally, I think this is definitely something we can look into for our mineral needs :D

Did you know that?

I still love my Mineraux Beach Tan Bronzer!!! It's still reigning as my top fave blush!

Tips

• always try on applying mineral foundation using various brush to find the right one, I prefer using my Ecotools Kabuki brush
• to prevent "powder" look, spritz on Evian/Mac fix+ or Charged water on your face after buffing the mineral foundation
• use a concealer brush, buff on the foundation to the taklon concealer brush and pat on spots --- VOILA! You have a mineral concealer!
  

Will I repurchase?

Not sure, I still have a lot left!
