hive mind: minerals?

[anotheranon]

From the Questions That Can't Be Answered in One Line at Twitter:

What's the big deal about mineral makeup?

In particular I've been seeing this company's boxed sets online and in shops all over of late, it seems. The colors don't look like anything special and texture wise I'm a satisfied MAC StudioFix/powder customer. Has anyone tried these? What's your opinion of them?

I ask because of a Sephora gift cert. breathing down my neck and I'm realizing that there are New Things in the cosmetics world that I haven't a clue about (geekchick explained "primer" to me last night).

Re: Yogurt Bubble Bath

Seeing as I was actually at a computer when it came to mind this time, I decided I was curious enough to check the Fa website ... according to their newsletter, they're putting yogurt in everything (not just the bubble bath) "because Cleopatra bathed in donkey's milk to enhance her beauty."

It's so reassuring to see that there's logic behind this decision. :p
