e.l.f. mineral foundations and concealers

A large collective e.l.f. mineral haul has arrived and I've done some swatching. We only ordered the three lightest shades. e.l.f. mineral powders are not for purists or people with bismuth allergies as the ingredients list states there's some in it. Tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E) on the other hand  is a very welcome addition.

Active Ingredients: Zinc Oxide 15%, Titanium Dioxide 10%
Inactive Ingredients: Mica, Bismuth Oxychloride, Titanium Dioxide, Tocopheryl Acetate(Ve), Boron Nitride . May Contain: Iron Oxides(CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), Manganese Violet (CI 77742), Ultramarine Blue(CI 77007) 

Coverage seems to be rather sheer and it amazes me that Fair concealer seems sheer as well - usually concealers are a bit thicker in consistency. Powders are very finely milled and seem to sink into the skin well. I've also ordered some boosting stuff and blemish powders but I have to review those some other time.

Here are some pics in different lighting conditions, swatches are done wet. These powders will work very well for wet application. Melt like a dream.

size comparison between different brands - e.l.f. is medium

Later addition: mineral foundations in Dark and Deep,
Dark could easily be someone's summer shade 

e.l.f.´i mineraalpuudrid pole allergikutele ega puhaste toodete austajatele - vismut on sees. Kui mõnda nahaallergiat pole, siis saab kenasti hakkama (poekraami kasutajatel allergiat tõenäoliselt ei tekita, tundliku nahaga inimesed peaksid enne pikemat kasutamist toodet veidi nt käe peal testima). 
Katvus on kerge või keskmine, sama värvigrupi peitepuudritel ja mineraalpuudritel on erinevad toonid: Fair foundation on mu nahal hetkel liiga oranžikas, Fair peitepuuder aga sobib kenasti - hoolimata sellest, et swatch on VÄGA imelikku roosat tooni. Lisaks on see peitepuuder kas harjumatult vähekattev või teine võimalus - mu nahatooniga ülisobiv ja seetõttu ei paista nahal välja. Kahtlustan siiski esimest.
Mulle Fair concealer mineraalpuudrina täitsa meeldib - tekstuur on mõnus ja sobib nendeks päevadeks, mil tugevat katvust vaja pole. Nahatooni ühtlustab suurepäraselt. Nahk on vaid viimasel ajal nii õliseks läinud, et meik ei püsi enam kuut tundigi peal - juba 3 tunniga tahab ära ujuda. :S
