Coastal Scents Mineral Makeup Foundation

Ivory

Coastal Scents' Minderal Makeup Powder Foundation is not a new product, but it IS a good one. It's super finely milled,  easy to apply and feels velvety soft on the skin. If applied correctly (no need to go overboad, ladies!) I'm left with a nice, even and natural finish, without looking cakey or dry. I love that I can quickly sweep this on before heading out the door and know that my skin looks fresh and that all the slight redness I sometimes get is no more!

I would say this is a light coverage foundation. I suppose you could build it to medium, but I don't recommend powdering with a heavy hand. It goes well over concealer so if you have a few minor things that need covering, just apply your concealer first for a seamless look.

If you're in for a looooong day, you may need to touch up after several hours, espcially if you've got super oily skin. That's the case with all powders though, isn't it?

Coastal Scents offers 20 shades and you can order samples for $0.49 each, so you can find the right shade before purchasing the full sized product. I'm currently wearing Ivory, which is a great light shade, with neutral undertones.  I ordered samples of the 4 lightest shades, and they all have subtle difference.
