Review - Candy doll mineral powder 01

Sorry, I have been very slack with my reviews lately! i have been super busy planning a holiday, which is all organised now and fast approaching  I am super excited and as i haven't been on a holiday for years i am counting down the days.


so onto the review
Awhile ago i bought the Candy Doll mineral powder off sasa.com id always wanted to try out some of the candy doll make up but always found they were super expensive to buy online or that they couldn't be shipped to Aus.


I actually really like this product and have used almost every day since i got it.

The  powder is designed to cover pores and give you a flawless look, it is a light yellow based (although the candy doll website makes it look more pink based) powder which goes on almost translucent so it makes a really good finishing powder.

Unlike a lot of mineral powders, this one has super fine particles so it doesn't have to be buffed into the skin heaps to make it blend. I think this is what helps it give a nice airbrushed look as well.



Pros:

  • lightweight
  • Fragrance free
  • no skin irritation
  • very fine powder, quick and easy to apply
  • airbrushed finish
Cons:
  • included powder puff is hopeless
  • Could last longer, need to reapply after 4-6 hours


Rating: 4/5

Review - Bobbi Brown Mineral foundation




I picked up my free sample of Bobbi brown mineral foundation last week. So generally Bobbi Brown make up is really good quality, and this mineral powder is no exception.
Skin Foundation Mineral Makeup SPF 15

I have tested it a few times, as a foundation and as a finishing powder.
