Bare minerals v lily lolo

Thinking of making the switch after someone posted about the levels of bismuth in Bare Minerals.

Anyone else used both and can recommenced (or not!) Lily Lolo?

Thanks!

Yes,LL is much nicer imo. They also do testers and have a huge range of colours so you can try before committing. If you email them with your BM shade they will suggest the alternative in a LL shade.

Thank you, Loaf :)

I found them both to be about the same, tbh. I also like Nude by Nature. (Not sure if you can get that in UK, I’m in Aus). Equally good, but shade range not as vast. You get twice as much product though.... (fortunately colour match is great for me!)

*NbN is Bismuth free (I just checked)

Iirc the matte version of BM is bismuth free,at least it was originally,I haven't used it for a long time.

@LoafofSellotape It’s bismuth free but unfortunately brings me out in lots of spots!

LL is much better for my skin,worth getting some testers to see.

I love lily lolo, never found any other mineral makeup that comes close. Natural looking, buildable, non-irritating.
