The Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation Compact is a neater solution to some of the problems women were finding with the Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Mineral Powder Foundation with the brush applicator. The new Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation Compact a well-designed make up product for women who need mineral make up to go. It also comes with healthy skin benefits including SPF 20.

Coverage

At first I thought the make up from the new Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation compact was a little heavy a bit too powdery-looking. I did have to make sure to put extra moisturizer on any normally areas of my skin, which helped ease the powdery look.

The Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation make up behaves like mineral sheers, and it feels very light. It also reflects light, just as you would expect from a mineral make up.

With some practice, I noticed that I could apply a very light layer of these mineral sheers and still benefit from the mineral coverage.

Make Up Without Mess

With the new Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation Compact there is no loose powder on your fingers, your clothes, your sink or in your car. You also will not have make up residue on your hands. This mineral make up easily moves from its home in the compact to the sponge to your face, without escaping.

Make Up Not Perfume

One pet peeve I have with some make up products is the scent. As someone who has a strong sense of smell and is prone to headaches, I do not need add extra scents to my life. Fortunately, the new Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Powder Foundation Compact contains make up that is free of fragrance.

Skin Benefits

The reason I continue to purchase Neutrogena make up and skin care products is because not only do they not damage or harm my skin, they also benefit my skin.

The main skin benefit feature I appreciate in this new mineral make up is that it contains SPF 20. Personally, I wouldn't mind an even higher SPF for summertime, but SPF 20 built-in to this mineral make up product works for me.

What I also like about this mineral make up is that it does not clog pores. I have tried many different make ups that do clog pores.

This sounds like a winner. I have always hated make-up that clogs pores, too, and too many do.
