Boots No7 Mineral Loose Powder Foundation

This is a review of Boots No7 Mineral Perfection foundation. I am a big fan of mineral foundation and although usually use bare escentuals, I like to try other brands to compare the products. To date, I have never found anything better than BE. The Boots foundation has SPF 15 built into it and is available in approx 4 shades (that's what was on the shelves anyway). You get a 10g pot which will last 3-4 months if you are using it every day like I do. The price was £14 but I had a £5 off voucher so I thought £9 was quite a bargain for this. You get a brush in a cute net bag inside the box too. This is a lot cheaper than the BE product which ...  Read the complete review

I have been using Boots No7 Stay Perfect foundation for quite a while and I have always been quite happy with it. However like a large majority of the female population I tend to think that there must be something better out there which is suddenly going to turn me into a flawless beauty! Thus when my last bottle of the Stay Perfect was nearing the end I found myself browsing the no7 stand at my local Boots.

I thought it ...  Read the complete review

God gave me pale skin which freckles. Consequently I have a problem with make-up, as consultants always go by the pale colour on my jaw line, so I look like a ghost!

So looking for foundation is a nightmare as helpful assistants want to go pale and I want darker. Whilst browsing at Boots recently I was about to buy a liquid foundation when the young assistant asked if she could help. She asked if I had ...  Read the complete review

I was looking for a new foundation with a bit more coverage. The new Boots Loose mineral foundation powder had just been released and as there was a couple offers along side it i thought i would give it a go. It is priced at £14.00 for a 10gm pot. That doesnt sound a lot of powder for the money but this has lasted so far 2 months and still lots left! I apply it once a day as this last me throughout the day but occasionally twice a day if i am going out in the evening so not that bad value after all! It comes with its own good qulaity smooth brush in a net bag to apply the powder with. Also the colour match was good for my skin too as i am quite fair ...  Read the complete review
