Does anyone else find mineral make-up really drying?

I have tried from expensive to cheap and everything in between, but they seem to dry out my face. I don't have dry skin!Does anyone else find mineral make-up really drying?
I find it to make my skin oily.








If you have dry skin it will only add to it.Does anyone else find mineral make-up really drying?
Yes the mineral powders can be drying and flaking in many cases while in other cases increased oil break through, clogging of pores and quite irritated skin. The only product with excellent reviews and my personal recommendation after trying various brands on myself as well as my clients I can only recommend bee luscious cosmetics because of their unique formula,non clogging,hypo allergenic foundations and makeup. http://www.beeluscious.com
yes i did too, i found it made my skin look like it was kinda flaky. i dont even have dry skin either. then i asked my friend whos a make-up artist and she gave me some really good tips and now im fine when using it.





allow your moisturizer to dry and absorb before applying your make-up, this may take a few minutes.





always use a non-mineral, oil-based moisturizer that will not clog pores. if your moisturizer does not absorb into your skin, neither will your mineral makeup.





use a setting powder as a base all over if you have oily skin...it will help absorb the oil naturally.





using special enhancers such as ';polished'; will refract light and make your dark under-eye cirles disappear. also use in the corner of eyes, mouth, etc. to reduce the appearance of fine lines.





mineral make-up should be applied in light layers. if you feel you need more coverage, keep applying light layers.





i have found the least drying mineral make up to be loreals true match minerals, if you follow these tips it might improve the look of it. good luck.





hope this helps

Mineral make-up when applied seems to clog and does not give off the shine like on TV (do they do something, we don't)


I have never had dry skin from it though, sorry...
Clinique products are really drying. Their toner took the varnish off my coffee table where I spilt some.
