PurMinerals VS Bare Escentuals ~ Review

If you have been a Living Smart Girl follower for a while now you will know how much I like my mineral makeup.   Back in 2008 I was visiting a friend in Florida and we were staying at Disney (being kids again).  One morning we were putting on our faces and I was using a mineral makeup I got from another company… and complaining about it.  She pulled out her Bare Escentual mineral makeup and from that day I was hooked on BE.  I have tried others over the last few years but continue to be faithful to my BE line.  I use the makeup, the face wash and lotion, the self tanner, … all of it!!  Love it!!   My only complaint is the ease of use.   I do not like the loose powder.  Yeah, they updated their containers so now when you travel they don’t spill all over inside the lid and make a hell of a mess when you open them.  But, I still am not a loose powder girl!

Well… a month ago I was at a local beauty shop and on my way to the register to pay for my new style I walked by a table with some PurMinerals on it.  So, I stopped and asked a few questions.  The gal showed me all the goodies, and after looking, reading and thinking.. I bought a starter kit.  OH MY!!   I am sold!!   I have been using it daily and love it!!
Their face powder is a compact pressed mineral powder.  That is a huge deal to me!!  You can get it all in either pressed powder of mineral rocks!  Cool!!

As with anything I try new I try one product at a time since my skin is very sensitive.  So the first few days I only used the foundation, then added the blush, and then the mineral glow.  I use ONLY these three products just about every day.  I use the foundation, then put the mineral glow on my eyebrow/eyelid area and then a light stroke of the blush.  I look natural, not flaky, and it stays all day with no touch up.  I can also sleep in it and it doesn’t end up on my pillow or sheets.  I generally wash my face every night,…but sometimes forget if my nights turn into early mornings (downfall of being a bar owner)

I have not tried all their other products but can’t wait to dig into things one at a time.  I am still using the remainder of my BE face wash and lotion.  Those I am happy with so am not sure how fast I will change over those 2 things.  I am still stuck on the BE Blemish Control.   But one by one I will try the PurMinerals and keep everyone updated.

What do you use?  Tell me your thoughts and feedback on PurMinerals products.
