Lumiere foundations

I have been looking for the perfect foundation and I have found Lumiere's Veena Velvet to be the best formula for me. The colors on the other hand are quite complicated and I haven't found a perfect match yet. I tried lots of different samples during Lumiere's free worldwide shipping campaign last year. Right now I use a mix of Light Medium Beige and Light Medium Cool. I *love* the Silk Powder too. It is the best finishing powder I've tried!

The same color looks different in different formulas. Below are Light Medium Beige and Light Medium Neutral for example.

Hi!

I'm a makeup junkie from Sweden and I recently got interested in mineral makeup and have found lots of great information on the Vox blogs. I'm also an art historian and I love colors and beautiful things. :)
I haven't completely figured out how this place works yet, but I'm learning!
See you around!

Mineral Makeup brands & Shipping info

There are many, many mineral makeup brands out there to explore, even for us who live in Europe and other parts of the world... :)
I made this list mainly for my own reference, to keep track of all my bookmarked sites, but I hope that many of my fellow mmu addicts can enjoy it too! :) I have focused on brands that ship internationally and which you can sample before you buy.

I only had a brief look at each site and this list is not complete in any way! All stores are (probably) US based if nothing else is noted.
