I had never really bothered with mineral make up as I was under the impression that it was a powder foundation and that does not sit well (literally) with me! But on a recent retail therapy session I noticed this little beauty on the shelf and was astounded to see that it was classed as a mineral foundation whilst still being in my comfort zone of the liquid variety. It is the first ever liquid mineral foundation that Maybelline New York have released as their powder one was such a huge success - but what is so good about minerals? Minerals are found in lots of every day things such as food, water and some juices. They help to keep us healthy on the inside as ...  Read the complete review

My usual foundation is Maxfactor colour adapt but last year I decided to try something a bit new and get Pure liquid mineral foundation. I bought it in my local Morrisons when I was looking for a cheaper alternative to my max factor as it was a pretty hard time. I do like Maybelliune's products and I have never been disappointed with the product I've received so I expected good things from this foundation. I did noticed my usual foundation was pretty oily and I wanted an alternative to it so that my skin was spotless (literally) for my holiday. I assumed that this foundation would do exactly that. It came in a glass bottle with a little pump. I prefer the ...  Read the complete review

I should probably start this review by up front stating 1 point - I don't like liquid foundations. The application annoys me, the look annoys me, the feel annoys me, and mess annoys me. However. Like most people I'm not perfect, try as I may to pretend otherwise, and sometimes a powder just isn't suitable so I have a couple of liquid foundations to fall back on on slightly different shades. My pure liquid mineral foundation is in nude - I know now that my ideal colour would've probably been cameo, but in all fairness nude also suits me fine, my undertones are quite cool (pinky), nude I'd say is between neutral and cool, so also quite good for summer ...  Read the complete review

I prefer to wear liquid foundations purely because I like water-based coverage's that hydrate my skin rather than make it look dry and flaky. I picked this foundation as it included no oils, waxes or perfume so I knew it wouldn't cause my skin to become oily or irritated. The 15 SPF helps on the sunny days as I don't usually bother with sun-lotion so for me that was just an added bonus. When wearing the foundation you feel as if you aren't actually wearing any, the product is very light & allows my skin to breathe yet gives great coverage. My skin looks visibly improved, natural & healthy. I use around 2 pumps daily and it gives ...  Read the complete review

Theres a stall in the markets in Bham that is always selling different brands up make-up for very low prices and they do it by weeks. For example one week it will be Rimmel and then another it will be Maybelline like it was last week when I went to pick up some new products and ended up with about 5 new ones to try out - at about £1-£2 each you really cant complain! Anyway this "Maybelline Pure Liquid Mineral Foundation" was one of those five items and I pretty much had to get this as I had ran out of my normal foundation adn really couldnt afford to replace it at all the time so in all honesty I bought this as a stand in but I have to admit Ive been surprised.  Read the complete review
