have previously tried bare escentuals which looked crap on me
went to JL today and lovely new LMercier counter, couldn't resist a makeover
really impressed with the undercover pot so got that and am currently trying out the mineral to see if it lasts
am amazed how well it covers my red veins

anyone with comb skin use the mineral ?

I use the LM mineral foundation and have done now for about a year. I have never stuck to a product as faithfully as this one! It takes seconds to apply, although I think you have to have reasonably good skin in the first place as the coverage is so sheer. But I like that because I hate the unnatural feeling of too much make up.

I've also got the blending brush, which was v expensive but well worth the money.

I need to order some more actually, thanks for the reminder!

PS I have combination to normal skin.

oh good thanks
I'm not sure the colour she used on me is quite right though-may be too pale
do you know if they do samples

Not sure... the colour I was advised to use is great in winter but too pale in Summer... if you have a tan still form the summer it might be ok in a few wee's time when you've lost your summer glow? Perhaps the assistant considered that?

Oh yes, I love it. I have rather combo skin and it always looks great with this on. I haven't been wearing it over the summer but need to get some more, now that winter appears to be looming, so ta for the reminder.

Are you on commission ggirl? Wink
