Good for you girlfriend!!!!
I wear BE, I am not sure if I am going to stick with it though. Right now I am on meds for mild to moderate cystic acne and I did not want to wear any liquid foundation on my face. My dermo said mineral powder is good and provides good coverage. So I got some BE. I don't know if this is my makeup or my medicated skin cream, but I find that it makes my face shiney shiney by the end of the work day. I can feel the oil on my face and see the shine. I always need to reapply it if I don't go straight home from work. I hate reapplying without washing and redoing my whole makeup. I just have such sensative skin that I only want 1 layer of makeup on.
With that said..... I have NEVER found a foundation or powder that does not get shiny, oily or wear off by the end of the work day. I did try Physicians Formula mineral powder and for a fraction of the cost (buy at walmart or any pharmacy), it works pretty much just as well. With both of these products I would say you need a daily moisturizer, using just powder (no foundation) on dry skin will make all powder look flakey and cakey.
