Dainty Doll makeup bargains at Fragrance Direct

Does anyone have any feedback about the mineral powder? I am pale, pale, pale and when I heard about Dainty Doll I thought this could be my ideal loose powder... http://www.fragrancedirect.co.uk/dainty-doll/dainty-doll-loose-mineral-powder/invt/0045800
Only thing was, the (original) price put me off a bit, and mineral powder (as opposed to bog-standard loose powder) tends to be sparkly and shiny, not matte, as I prefer my powder to be. Mineral powder is usually used as a "buildable" powder, almost like a veil of foundation, so is this what this powder is like?
Wondering whether to give it a try. Thanks
I got one, and I read a lot of reviews. It is as you say, a nice subtle buildable powder, not shimmery on me at all, but the applicator brush is terrible. I am going to decant the powder into an empty pot and use it that way. Not a lot of product but at such a cheap price it's worth trying.0 -
Someone on ebay has listed it as Urban Decaygentleorange wrote: »That kit isn't Urban Decay, it's Diego Dalla Palma. It's a really nice set though, very good quality:)
maybe to try and encourage sales! 0 -

I'm finding the brush to be awkward too, I'm shaking it to try and get some out but not much is coming out and I was starting to wonder if there was a knack to it :rotfl:0 -
just done another order, now have cream blushes. Let me know if anyone knows how to get the mineral powder out0

Bit dissappointed, ordered last Thursday and had confirmation email, and despatch email on Friday, still not delivered. REALLY want my make-up! Hopefully will arrive soon :-)"I AM DEATH, NOT TAXES. I TURN UP ONLY ONCE."- Terry Pratchett0
