Was in Wilkos the other day and was drawn towards the JML Mineral Magic Powder -

Has anyone actually tried this and what did they think? Any good? I don't have any real skin problems as such, just after that something a bit more better, iukwim?!!! its priced at £9.99 in Wilkos.

It's really good and if you get the free mascara with it it's the best I've ever used Smile

I don't think the mascara came with it, but thanks for the reply. I usually use Collection 2000's or Boot's 17 face powder, so was just looking to try something different & wondering if this did what it claims to do!!!

I found it terribly drying, might be my skin type though. Yes, the mascara was brilliant!

Bumping for you, really want to know as well!

I've got combination skin and it was fab on my skin I got it really cheap on Amazon think it was £6 at the time

Am I supposed to use it as a face powder or wear it as a 'all-in-one-' foundation & powder?!!! Just tried a little bit over my cheeks - looks quite dark but I do have make up on already?! Will try it properly tomorrow!

I just used to moisturise and use it as a kind of foundation (but then I don't wear any other makeup)

Saw this in boots today, anyone here still using it?
My friend said she swears by it??

I wear it all the time and have done for years. I use it daily over the top of my liquid foundation to mattify and give a wee bit extra coverage. On days that I'm giving my skin a break from heavy foundation I use it straight after moisturiser and it helps to even out my blotchy face and make me presentable. I tend to buy mind from eBay as I get the 32g compact and it lasts me a long time

Sorry I'm still Grin at your user name, had to read it a few times!
However if that is your real name then I apologise sincerely Smile

I was actually called this by a "service user" at work one day and it makes laugh every time I think about how annoyed he was and this was the best insult he could think of!!

Indecisivejo · 12/05/2015 13:17

Ha ha I would have literally laughed out loud if someone called me that.
