Mineral makeup is just becoming more popular these days and the results are amazing and better still it's suitable for all skin types and doesn't irritate the skin. Minerals are here to stay!

I'm itching to get my hands on an Inikia sample kit, not sure how much it costs, but only some stockists supply it... gotta track down a nearby stockist...
I've just got some Bella Pierre mineral makeup which is quite good but their colours are weird, lucky they mix back with my Bare Escentuals to I can blend the correct colour... Was playing with the Bloom mineral makeup in Myer yesterday and it seems to have a beautiful creamy consistency for a mineral makeup, so that is on the wish list also! :) I swear I'm not greedy! lol ;) so much makeup, so little time! hahaha...

I haven't yet tried a decent mineral make-up, so hopefully its as good as you say it is. I'm not really sure about bronzers though, I have pure white skin so I think it may make me look quite weird.

Mineral make up seems to be the all the go these days. I can see how it's more appealing than oil based make up. I have to admit I'm a bit scared about trying it - only because it's new!

Bronzer's and highlighter's scare the pants off me - getting my foundation right is hard enough!!! It is definitely easier to get right with mineral products though.
