Well, here I am-ready to leave work to go out and guess what I forgot??? My MMU and powder! Help! What pressed powder (OTC) is good that I can get at the store? I know, I know--but I need it--I can't order online! Good thing to know just in case, like now  |

I bought a Bare Escentuals loose powder compact on eBay a while back. I put some finishing powder in it and keep it in my desk at work, also have one in my purse. Only down side has been when I run out of powder in either of them and forget to refill it, or I'm out of the office and left the compact in the other purse!  |

Seems like everone is coming out with Mineral makeup these days. Loreal and Mac for example...
Soon, you can easily find mineral makeup in drugstores. |

Are you living in the US? Maybe you can try Sephora. |

If you go to any local pharmacy like CVS or Walgreens, etc., they sell Neutrogena
Mineral Sheers Mineral Powder Foundation. I can't think of any other mineral makeup sold at local stores unless you go to a specialty store like Sephora. |

I am in New Mexico! Just moved here 2 months ago and THERE ARE NO SEPHORAS HERE! Argh! Wne to Wal-Greens and hot the Neutregena. I just used in 3 hours ago and I have a small pimple growing on my chin! I will attribute it to stress for now. |

How about Ulta? Any makeup stores in the mall? Maybe you can tried Origins or Aveda. How's the Neutrogena working for you so far? |

Used my Neutragena through the weekend. Aside from 1 pimple, my skin looks okay. They do not have a lot of color choices for olive-tan girls like myself, but it was a pretty close match. Controlled the oilies for at least 4 hours yesterday, but had to re-use a lot after that. Overall, it's good in a pinch, but I would not use again for long term. |

Yes. I wouldn't use that for long term use either, because my skin is very sensitive. Maybe you can try Alima MMU, if you can order it online. They're safe for long term use and is great for sensitive skin. |
