Hello! I have been using mineral make-up for many years now, and the past year of use has been utilzing U Glo Girl...found out about UGG last year and thought I would give it a try as I had not found the right color match for me in other brands.
I have acne prone skin (wouldn't say it was sensitive however) and I have no issues with the UGG mineral make-up - found my color match so I am very happy! I also like UGG as the finish leaves my skin looking 'creamy' for lack of a better word. Its not too matte, not shiny, stays on for the day, doesn't turn orange, and doesn't make my skin itchy.
Order a few samples to see how it goes for you - they are generous sizes and will last you a few weeks so you will be able to get a good idea of how your skin will cope with it. Plus it gives you a chance to find a color match as you will need to try out a few colors to see what works for you. I have not tried the finishing powder as I don't need it...you may find you don't need it either, so order a sample and try the minerals without it one day and then with the finishing powder the next.
If I may make two suggestions:
1)mineral make-up looks better if you 'set' it with a spray of some sort after application. The spray helps the minerals melt (visually) into the skin and not look 'powdery'. I have UGG's spray hydrascentuals and quite like it - they sell samples of that so you might want to order some of that. I also have tried plain Avene spray water, but didn't like the finished look of it over my mineral make-up as much.
2) you will need to get a good mineral make-up brush - the brush will make (or break) your experience with the minerals! If you have sensitive skin look for a synthetic brush as a brush with real bristle make my skin itchy and would think it would be worse for you with sensitive skin. I tried the UGG flat top buffer but didn't like it as much as my Alima #25 (found it too dense, but it is a great quality brush and you may like it). Also tried a Bobbi Brown kabuki but didn't like that for the natural bristles as well as the shape...I prefer a flatter top brush myself.
If you have any other questions, feel free to post here or pm me. I would be happy to answer them!
Cheers |
