Still have breakouts at 33 almost 34. I was worried about getting the coverage I need. So far I am so impressed. It took about a week to get used to how of it to use. Now I am good..and I have had no breakouts. Even on durning that time of the month. I feel like my skin can breathe. --------------------

My main concern is I can't stand wearing real foundation because it makes me feel like my face is suffocating. Do you feel like your skin can breathe? --------------------

Mmmm. Ice cream! Group: Moderators Posts: 11,773 Member No.: 69 Joined: 31-March 03	I don't have acne problems, but I do have redness and it covers it perfectly. And it goes on like a powder, so there is definitely no suffocating feeling. -------------------- The Administrators of the Parenting Club take violators of the Terms of Service Agreement seriously.

On me it's really shiny and makes my pores and fine lines really stand out. I've tried it about three times and never given it much more than a week each time but I'd really love to figure out how to make it work for me since everyone else loves it so much.

Did you try it with the mineral veil over top?

I think so, maybe I didn't experiment enough with blending it. Is that the secret, the mineral veil?

I sets everything for me, so I don't feel greasy or shiny. It doesn't have any color to it. I'm not sure if it would make a difference for you. I know I was using the wrong color at first and really didn't like it. Do you have a Sephora or Ulta around where they can put it on you and show you the tricks?

No, but I'd wondered if it was the wrong color that made me feel like it was too much of a sheen....maybe I'll try again with a color down from what I'd tried in the past.
