Now, I don’t recommend it if you have extremely oily skin, because the finish may not be matte enough for you. Seriously, I think you can pair it with anything. When I first started wearing it, I was all about pairing Mineralize Skinfnish Natural with MAC Face & Body, but these days I like wearing it on top of MAC Lightful CC Cream, MAC Pro Longwear Nourishing Waterproof or Dior Diorskin Nude Air Serum. It also doesn’t emphasize any textured areas (damn those dry patches!) or trigger breakouts, while simultaneously managing to look amazing no matter what I wear it with.

It doesn’t oxidize either (darken) on my skin throughout the day, so the color stays true, and it blends beautifully. I’ve used mine almost daily for a year, and I’ve barely put a dent in it. With the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Naturals, a little goes a long way. $32 for this), 2) available in fewer shades. The effect reminds me of Chanel’s Loose Powder, which is absolutely beautiful, but Chanel’s powder is also 1) much more expensive ($52 vs. The powder also doesn’t look super obvious. When I wear it, my skin looks even toned, smooth, and it doesn’t look shiny (nor does it look severely matte). But MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural bucks that trend. Less like makeup and more like real skin. Unlike many pressed powder formulas, the Mineralize Skinfinish Naturals look more like loose powders than pressed powders when they’re sitting on the skin.Īfter having taken a zillion pictures over the years, I think that loose powders generally look better than pressed powders in person and in pics - softer, I guess. I’ve worn it for everyday makeup looks, big events, pictures, HD video, daytime work meetings, dinner dates and taking Rosie out for her walks, and I think it looks just as good on camera as it does in real life. Wearing MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Medium Tan with Dior Diorskin Nude Air Serum The gist of it is this: in powder-land, MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural is my current favorite powder across the board - not just from MAC - for casual, dewy, natural-looking skin. I love so many things about this powder! - but I’m going to try to keep this short (yeah right, Karen), because otherwise we’d be here ’til next Tuesday.
