Mini update + Mac mineralize skinfinish natural review !

Sorry guys for not posting in a while, long story short I have been away. I recently went back to asia lately due to family and stuff so I haven't been able to post while I was there...well to be honest I have been back for a while now, around 2 weeks maybe? but I just haven't had time to really do a review due to all the work in school -_-


Luckily though I did haul A LOT of stuff from asia and I'm planning to do a post on it soon but my main computer is broken right now and I cant upload any of the photos from my dslr to my laptop so sadly I have to wait until that gets fixed... but don't worry its worth it! I have been loving just about everything that I purchased there! especially from etude house! ^ ^ look out for the reviews soon ! 


Anyways back to the post, today I'm going to review the infamous Mac mineralize skinfinish natural (or MSF natural)

I have heard so many raves about this powder so I decided to try it out myself! this is the first ever mac product that I have ever purchased (and the only mac product in my collection) so I can really compare it to other mac powders but I can say that this stuff is AMAZING!


When I first purchased this product I initially was only going to use it as a setting powder for my liquid foundation (revlon colourstay) although now that my skin has cleared up I love using this as a powder foundation! 
It gives such a natural finish and no matter how much powder I apply, my face is never, I repeat never cakey. It is not a full coverage powder at all but it adds just enough to even out my skin tone and hide my enlarged pores although I do still use a concealer/liquid foundation on certain areas to hide my horrible acne scars.

Its a really nice finely mild powder

Either way this powder is amazing as a setting powder or a powder foundation! The finish I would say is semi-matte, it mattifys my skin for the day and controls my oil but I wouldn't say its the best mattifying powder out there, but personally I think its great because of the fact that its not overly matte your face looks more natural and gives the appearance of the 'no makeup, makeup' look.

Pros

• Very natural looking
• Never gets cakey
• Blends into the skin beautifully
• nice texture and finish

Cons

• Not full coverage, usually used as a setting powder rather than powder foundation
• Oil control is not the best

I definitely suggest you guys to check this out either as a setting powder or a powder foundation if you dont need as much coverage! this stuff is awesome :D

Coverage - 2.5/5

Oil control - 3/5

Lasting power - 4/5

Texture - 5/5

Finish - 5/5 

Overall - 4.5/5
