Use a brush
Date:February 2, 2013
I normally put foundation using my fingers, however that did not work well with this foundation for me. I find that it doesn't blend very well and sort of create a semi "heavy" mask - so after about 5 tries, I almost threw it away. A last ditch effort, I apply the foundation with Mac 130 (Short Duo Fiber) brush and lo and behold it really gives a flawless finish ! :) I have also tried it with the elf flat top powder brush and it also works :)

Not oil free as advertised in the store
Date:January 16, 2013
This review may be premature, but this is my review of the product thus far... I have combination to oily, acne prone skin, however, during the winter, my skin is a little drier. I had ordered the oil free liquid foundation online and it was the wrong color so I went to exchange it and get matched. Turns out there is no match in the oil free so I went with this one, the Extra Virgin Mineral foundation. It was advertised as oil-free, however, clearly, it is not which is the reason for 4 out of 5 stars. I tend to use oil free products only, due to my skin type, but I'll give this one a try since it's winter time and I'm drier than usual. It was also 50% off making it even more attractive, lol.
I washed my face when I got home to try it on again in different lighting (the normal lighting where I apply my make-up everyday). I left it on for 10-15 minutes to see how it oxidized. It looks extremely natural and sinks right into my skin without the heavy or cakey look or feel. I applied it with my fingers and let me say, the make up didn't wash off my fingers with soap very easily at all. That right there tells me this will be long wearing and long lasting, which is what I desire in a foundation too. I did have to wash my face twice to remove it completely.
My favorite part of this product is how well it blends and how natural it looks. I have discoloration and acne scars and it evenly blended looking close to flawless. I think the lady at the store is right, no powder is needed. In my opinion, it makes it look a little cakey and less natural.
I'm glad I found a very natural, well matched liquid foundation that seems to be durable. I will post another review after a whole, long day of wear without touch ups (that will be tomorrow). And hopefully the oils won't break me out, fingers are crossed!!!

Color isn't true
Date:January 12, 2013
I have used the Extra Virgin Minerals compact foundation for a couple of years, in the #205 rose vanilla shade. I moved in the last year, and there is no store in my area, so I now order online. At Christmas, there was a great sale, so I placed an order for several items. When I tried to order the compact foundation, the shade was no longer available. Not out of stock, but not even listed any longer. So I thought I'd try the liquid, since it shows the same shade, #205 rose vanilla. However, when I tried it, it was orange! I still have some of the compact makeup, and it's obviously a totally different shade. So I woudn't recommend this product unless you have personally tried the color in a store.

Great foundation for a novice
Date:September 19, 2012
I have never really worn foundation before, but thought it was time to try one. I like this one because it evens out my skin without a thick cover. I have freckles and I like that the foundation is thin enough to still let the freckles show, but heavy enough to fix red spots and even out my face. I didn't think it worked that well until I bought the Body Shop's foundation brush, but I find that applying it using the brush really helps. Also, a little bit goes a looooong way, which makes it a good value. I bought the fair color, and it seems to match my skin really well. I don't know if it really lasts all day--I would definitely reapply before going out again after work--but it does the job for me!
