Hi girls,

i've been using Jrlique's rose face powder underneath my MMU as a powder Makeup primer for quite a while now; I'm almost done and was wondering if there's other powder form Makeup primers out there... Just curious in what else there is in the market for me to try...altho i really love jurlique's rose powder, but it's on the pricey side...

thx =D

There are a ton of MMU primers...here is the link to all of the primers from the brand that I use (look on the left side where the green buttons are):

http://www.raesinimages.com/primers.htm

BTW, this is possibly one of the worst websites I hve ever encountered, so if you get overwhelmed by all the info, you are not alone! Fortunately, the product is way better than the website.

Hi bethany
I was able to get to the mineral veils, but question for you. The colors look way to light. I would be afraid that it would make me look white. I use glominerals natural med.
Any advice?

Begquis, I use the Raesin Images Warm 2, and it is comparable to the Bare Minerals Fairly Light, if that helps at all. Those are the only 2 brands I have used.

I would send you some samples (I bought a ton, lol) but I think I might be paler than you. Confused

Hi all, new here...

I just tried Southern Magnolia's mineral makeup- it is the best I have used and very affordable. She has a great powder primer called Perfection Primer. This is the first time my dear hubby has ever commented on how good I look after I tried a new makeup.

I would absolutely recommend lumierecosmetics pearl powder as a mineral primer. It gives you a hint of radiance, but still absorbs some pesky oils. They have it in a white version, but in Ivory and Sand color as well.

I was watching QVC last night. They had two hours of Bare Escentials. They were discussing using Bare Escentuals bareMinerals mineral Veil as a primer.

I am not into mineral makeup to review this product. Just thought I would pass on the information.

There is lots of primers in the mineral world. Most of these companies offer samples at a reasonable cost.

What is the ingredients in your favorite product? Are you oily? If oily (I am) kaolin clay is a great oil absorber and many primers have this ingredient.

Silk is to balance. I like Silk Naturals finishing powders. I also like Lure beauty; they use Rice (also good if oily).

I've tried LM's powder primer, and it's ok, nothing spectacular. I don't really see any difference in my makeup staying power when using this. I think I'll also stick with liquid/creme primers.

Jane Iredale has a primer - http://janeiredaledirect.com/product_Absence+SPF+15_6540.htm

How important are primers though? Do they really make that big of a difference in how you look? What if you don't have oily skin? Do you still need it?

Fyrinnae Rice Primer powder is amazing...and it's super inexpensive. It's their best seller.
You can buy a sample jar to try it out.

http://www.fyrinnae.com/product_info.php?products_id=817&osCsid=cb5ab4babe6910792d55dcc6e11b004d

They have great eye colors...all their makeup is vegan and not tested on animals.

Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil is great for a primer or a setting powder. It really keeps your makeup fresh.
