Amazing for Fair Skin Brightening! (Shade Golden Glow)
I love this! I have fair skin, am acne prone & oily. I’m not a makeup guru. I have struggled to find full-coverage makeup that doesn’t completely wash me out (despite adding in bronzer & blush/highlighter). This is the best recommendation, which came from my dear friend who works at a dermatologist! My daily application process consists of: skincare routine to include SPF; no primer; cover trouble areas w/ concealer; cover entire face w/ BB cream to even out color; using a big brush, I apply this goodness over my entire face, including over my closed eyes (this “goodness” being Jane Iredale Mineral PurePressed in shade Golden Glow). I still swipe bronzer under my cheekbones, blush above them, & seal it all w/ setting spray. It’s still there more than 8 hours later w/o any touch up (often after some t.p. blotting of my face throughout the day, too!) My friend picked the shade Golden Glow, which I thought may be too dark, but it works well especially since I use a light self tanner on my neck & chest.
It is priced higher than my budget-conscious self likes to spend, but it has lasted for more than 3 months w/ daily use, & the pic I’m including shows the amount still remaining. So it lasts a long time, but it’s pricey (hence the 1/2 star withheld for Value)

I wouldnt buy this product again
I should've researched better before i bought this compact. It get's such glowing reviews and is known as "the skin care makeup" so how could it be bad for my skin? Within the first few days i started getting irritated red bumps, which i thought was due to a new soap but this was allergies on this product .
As someone with sensitive, acne-prone skin, I've searched for the right foundation for years. A couple of years back I stumbled upon the Jane Iredale mineral foundation collection through my esthetician, and have never looked back.
The compact offers amazing coverage (I never in a million years would have thought I would be using a POWDER to cover my spots!) yet it's light-weight enough that it doesn't leave my skin feeling caked or clogged.
The best part is that Jane Iredale is a Canadian company, stationed in Calgary, and all of their makeup is hypoallergenic, dermatologist tested, gluten-free, wheat-free, and vegan friendly! This powder also acts as an antioxidant, helps calm inflammation, minimizes UV damage, and acts as a sunscreen.
It's also great for the environment because the compact itself is refillable, and I find it lasts me about 3 months.
