I was driving past my local library, and they were having a huge book sale. Well not really, the library had signs claiming they were having a “huge book sale” but when I got there, they only had one cart of books out. Yeah, silly me, I read the words “huge book sale” and I was expecting a HUGE book sale not just a few dozen books.
However, I still took a look at the books that were for sale. After searching for a few minutes, I came across a book that looked like an interesting and fun read. So, for 50 cents I bought Chasing Harry Winston by Lauren Weisberger.

I read this book in a couple of days, it was VERY entertaining! I just couldn’t stop reading it, this book is 100% chick lit and if you’re into light romantic novels then you will definitely enjoy this book.
Okay okay, on to the makeup review.
Milani Minerals Loose Makeup, $9.

A few days ago CVS had alot of its cosmetics on sale, and Milani Minerals Loose Makeup was one of them. It was 75% off its original price! I only paid $3 for this jar of make up.
Even if this item was not on sale, the cost is lower than any of those higher end brands, which by the way I have used, and after comparing, I like Milani Minerals Loose Makeup just as well.

What Milani Cosmetics says:
An extraordinary, *talc-free, mineral-based powder that perfects and corrects skin to flawless perfection. This natural, non-irritating formula is perfect for extra sensitive, rosacea and acne-prone skin. Available in 8 buildable, sheer-to-full coverage shades. Pure Radiance & Tinted Radiance are translucent finishing powders. They can be worn alone if you desire a more natural, subtle look. For best results, wear over your mineral powder makeup for an instant radiant look.
Available in 2 radiant shades.
*Deepest shades 08-10 contain talc, as so to reduce potential ashiness on darker skin complexions.




What I say:
I have the Milani Minerals Loose Makeup in 03 Creamy Natural. This shade is perfect for my skin tone. The coverage is buildable, so you control the coverage that you need, sheer to moderate or full coverage. I’ve always liked a sheer to moderate coverage, to help even out my skin tone. And with this mineral foundation, I can get the coverage that I want and still look natural.
Milani’s Mineral Loose Makeup comes with a small makeup brush, but it’s not the best brush. It’s a little scratchy and the hairs are a little uneven. I have nothing negative to say about the actual make up.
This product is great for touch-ups, it does NOT cake if you apply layer after layer. So, you can apply it first thing in the morning, apply more throughout the day and your foundation will look as fresh as it did when you first put it on.
Overall, this foundation makes my skin look smooth and radiant all day.

Do I Recommend? Yes! This makeup is great for the price and the quality is excellent. Give it a try, you won’t regret it.
Update: I still like and use this loose makeup, however, I now find it to be a bit messy. Every time I invert the jar to try and get more product out of the container, some of the loose powder falls out and it gets on everything.

The makeup looks so pretty on you! wow!
Lol.
Thanks Xochitl!
Great review! I use this makeup too, even in the same shade. I really like it, but I know what you mean about it being messy, so I poured mine into an empty bare minerals container and just use my own brush.
Why didn’t I think about doing that to my loose powder? Thanks for the tip!
