I tried both the Ceramide Foundation and the Mineral Powder foundation. The Ceramide Ultra Lift and Firm foundation provided good cover and a moisturising, comfortable finish, while the Mineral Powder, with its nifty grinder, gave a satiny finish, which you can build to suit your coverage needs.
My skin tends to be a bit on the oily side, so the Ultra lift and Firm may have been a bit too nourishing for me, as I got quite oily and it didn't last as long as I would have liked. A friend who is dry loved the extra comfort and treatment properties.
The Mineral Powder foundation lasted better, and I really liked the grinder mechanism, which dispensed just the amount I needed without making a mess - something for which mineral foundations have a bad reputation ! Good portability for girls on the go.
I applied both with a foundation brush - my new favourite toy for a satiny finish.
