I came across the Extra Virgin Minerals from The Body Shop and decided to buy a couple of things to try them out for you guys.
First off, the powders. I love the packaging. Reminds me of Bare Minerals.
I had to get two foundations because I didn't find the right shade for me so I mix these two. The ones I got are
Shade:202 Natural Vanilla
Shade: 208 Golden Vanilla
These are MYR 79.00 /£1 15.00 each
5g / 0.17 oz
Does not come with a brush.
The powders are also with spf 25.
They melt right in when brushed in. The texture is really nice. I just wished it stayed put for a goo two hours at least without me having to re-apply it again.
Keep in mind that the powders are more for those with normal skin. I recommend getting this if your skin is pretty good.
Next is the cream compact foundation.
The shade I got is Shade 202 Natural Vanilla
MYR 89.00 / £ 16.00
8.5g / 0.3 oz
This foundation comes in spf 15.
This foundation comes with a brush and a mini mirror but I wouldn't use the brush to get the foundation on. I think it's best to use a wet sponge or fingers since it melts onto your skin better.
You can use this foundation for a full coverage.
On the good side, these foundations come in around 8 shades. They are fragrance and paraben free.
On the other hand, I found that these foundations dont really keep the shine away and it melts quite easily. I'd say it's okay to use at night. It's not humidity proof either.
I don't think I'd buy these again.
