INIKA LOOSE MINERAL POWDER FOUNDATION

There are a number of benefits to mineral foundation — it’s derived from natural ingredients, it doesn’t clog pores and is kind to sensitive skin — but the problem is that most powder foundations don’t give you a great finish. I was beginning to lose hope in the entire mineral foundation category until I found this one. Finely milled and formulated with mica, Inika’s Loose Mineral Foundation gives you buildable coverage and a beautifully luminous finish as good as any mainstream liquid foundation. Buffed into the skin with a short-haired kabuki brush and set with a finishing spray, it’ll hold all day long and well into the night too. Inika Loose Mineral Powder Foundation SPF25, $69.
