The one I do like, which is similar I think, is this one by YSL. It feels very light but gives amazing coverage and endures well.

However I absolutely hate the brush which I find awkward to use and wasteful. Only the other day, I got a good tip from another forum. Hold the brush between your teeth and tug sharply and it pulls out leaving a very small dispensing point! Perfect now, prefer to use my own brush and no waste.

Thanks for that tip. I love that foundation for when I am having a bad skin day but have never got on with the brush and even squeezing it out onto my hand means that it gets stuck on the brush which wastes product.

Do not go near BE Bare Minerals, it contains an ingredient which is a known allergen(sp). Wouldn't chance it.

I would say go and try Bare escentuals. As someone with combination, sensitive skin with roseacea and seb derm I use it with no problems at all

Its bismouth that can cause itching for some users - but its not only found in mineral cosmetics - it also gives the dewy glow to many ordinary foundations

However there are many mineral foundations out there that dont use bismouth. I use mainly Elemental Beauty as it has no bismouth and has allantoin which is a natural healer. My skin has improved considerably
