Avon Smooth Minerals powder foundation in Sand Beige

I'm sitting on the fence with this product as it has both good and bad points. What's good about this foundation is that it is a smooth minerals powder foundation which allows the skin to breath. It suits my colouring to the tee, is very easy to apply, and has great packaging, and a cool dispenser which gives you just the right amount of powder to use for the face so that you don't waste any powder. What's bad about this product is that it kind of highlights my face in all the wrong places! It illuminates my T-zone which is terrible because it makes me look shiny and thats definitely not cool! I also noticed that as soon as i started using it, I had a nasty breakout (Not sure why), So dont think that it is suitable for all skin types, which is weird as i don't have a sensitive skin, and most products are usually compatible with me. I bought mine from Avon on special for R104.95, which is a relatively good price for a powder foundation of this nature. It's just sitting in my make-up bag waiting for better days, I don't feel that it was entirely a waste of money (not sure why), but definitely won't purchase it again

I was not impressed with this product. Either gave my face a dull look or my face looked too shiny. It also made my make up feel thick and made my pores get blocked and break out like crazy. I really wouldn't recommend this product.

I normally used the standard liquid foundation and decided to give the mineral foundation a try. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this product. It applies evenly, no lines, no blothes, no flaking. It conceals perfectly and most importanly without hassle. I purchased the Kabuki brush Avon recommends with the product and have not bought a liquid foundation since.
