I worked for Bare Minerals for 5 years, and I can’t tell you how many women complained that it dried their skin out. So, I decided to create a line of powder foundation that actually helps hold moisture into the skin.

It’s very true that the two main ingredients in MM absorb oil, so it definitely not good for dry skin!!!!

If you want to use mineral makeup (I only use it-liquid now feels like tar!) try Jafra mineral makeup – but first moisterize…always! Jafra has Royal Jelly skin cream that heals the skin from the inside out and makes your skin a palate for make up. I have normal to dry skin and have had no problems at all, but I use the Royal Jelly cream first and a daily moisterizer. They also have a makeup primer.

Jan: Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll look the brand up the next time I’m looking for a mineral makeup/
