Drugstore to High-End

Alright so I am going to be doing various posts/reviews where I pick a certain type of product (powder, mascara, etc...) and review different brands. I will be sure to include something high end as well as something you can find at a drugstore. So the first thing I will be reviewing is Mineral Powder. There was a point where these were really "in," around the time Bare Minerals started surfacing. I do like mineral powders but notice that my face gets quite shiny and cakey after long wears. Also, my skin gets too used to mineral powders to after about a week of using them my skin starts to really get oily. I tend to reach for my mineral powder only on days when I am doing some quick runs or if I am simply just too lazy-mineral powders are great for a quick but natural flawless face. I grab my kabuki brush and apply the powder for an even and glowy skin tone (the swirl, tap, buff technique works well with all mineral powders). So on to the reviews...

1. Urban Decay Surreal Skin Mineral Makeup

I love this product, it's definitely the best out of all the mineral powders I have tried, I can actually say that this powder didn't wear off and give that shiny look in comparison to the others.
Packaging: It comes with an attached sponge, I wouldn't recommend actually using it except for retouches throughout the day because of sanitary issues
Finish: Semi matte, not too matte but not too glowy
Price: $29, definitely money well spent
Where to buy: Macys, Sephora, Ulta
2. Everyday Minerals

I am on the fence with this one. I wouldn't say that this product is GREAT but it's not terrible either. One pro would be the large variety of colors and shades, if you have a problem finding the right color that matches your skin tone, I'm sure this would be a great option for you. Another great thing they offer is samples, this way you can try out the products before you actually pay (you pay around $3 for the samples). Lastly, I liked being able to choose the finish, with each foundation you can choose how matte or how much glow you want.
Packaging: Flat and wide, not so great- it's kind of messy when opening.
Finish: Your choice
Price: $12

3. Maybelline Mineral Power

I was quite surprised with the results for this considering I grabbed this at Longs randomly because I needed a quick fix to go somewhere. Although like most mineral powders, retouching is essential but the immediate results are amazing. I mean for the price, this product goes a long way.
Packaging: A lot like Bare Minerals, a lot of product for the price
Finish: Semi-Matte
Price: around $9
Where to buy: Any drugstore, Walmart, Target

SO I hope you all enjoyed my first actual review-if anyone wants me to review a certain product please do leave a comment. Also leave comments about your experiences with mineral products, including ones I have not mentioned. Thank You!
