Good Points: Good coverage with just a small amount Looks completely natural Quick delivery Good price
Bad Points: Not found any yet
General comments: I used liquid foundation for a couple of years before switching to mineral makeup, as I always thought that wearing just powder would be very drying. As I had quite dry skin to begin with, this put me off at first anyway. After seeing these products gaining in popularity I finally gave in to the rave reviews it was getting and tried it for myself. I tried this Jacky Mac Minerals as I'd tried a couple of the bigger brands already, but found them too shiny and even quite glittery [not a look I want from a foundation anyway]. It really surprised me as I'd read a lot about how great mineral makeup was, but after trying the main brands I was a bit put off..anyway, I noticed another review saying how the smaller companies tend to use purer ingredients, which I've found is actually true. Well, at least I can say this brand is very flattering and forgiving. My skin hasn't looked this good in years!! It's quite an uplifting experience to see such a marked improvement to your look by one little pot of powder. It also had a calming effect on my skin. I suffer from [quite mild] rosacea, and after using this powder, it seemed to alleviate the symptoms. I also haven't had a break out either since switching brands, but as I've not been using it that long I'll have to comment further in a couple of weeks about that. Quite pleasantly surprised by the quality of the products. All round thumbs up.

Jacky Mac Loose Powder Foundation should be called miracle make-up! WOW! It covers great, but it doesn't look like a mask, which I find with lots conventional foundation liquids. Actually, it does what it says on the tin. My skin does look glowing and natural when I use this make-up, but best of all it doesn't cause any irritation at all. I suffer from moderate acne, which this stuff actually seems to calm. Application can be a bit tricky at first - you apply with a kabuki brush and swirl onto y ...
