Nude By Nature Mineral Cover Pressed 10g Fair | Nude

I love how this has natural sun protection in it because of the ingredients of zinc and titanium dioxide. So if I'm wearing this during the day I know I've got some added sun protection over the top of my SPF moisturiser. It's a very fine, soft powdered mineral foundation and it has no scent. The colour Medium is great on me as I have strong medium tan coloured skin. This foundation gives my skin a soft and sexy appearance and I find it looks really good with a smokey eye look - I especially like to use matte eye-shadows with this foundation. This mineral foundation gives my skin a polished, sophisticated look which still looks quite natural and not cakey. \n \nThis mineral foundation gives my skin a medium-to-high level of coverage but it can also be applied very ... MoreI love how this has natural sun protection in it because of the ingredients of zinc and titanium dioxide.

This mineral foundation gives my skin a polished, sophisticated look which still looks quite natural and not cakey. \n \nThis mineral foundation gives my skin a medium-to-high level of coverage but it can also be applied very lightly to give a more sheer to medium coverage if desired. I love using the Nude By Nature Kabuki Brush to apply this foundation as they work really well together to give my skin a beautiful mostly-matte air-brushed look. I apply the foundation in swirly circular motions. The gorgeous rose gold lid of the mineral foundation container looks great - I love metallic rose gold as it's so feminine and classy and it's also so 'in' right now too.\n\nI find this foundation looks great for going out at night as well. I use a powdery compact blush instead of a creamy or gel blush when I use this foundation. Having skin with some fine lines I find I need to be careful to use a rich moisturiser and a primer to help this foundation work well on me - especially for around my dryer eye area. For those with younger skin, just your normal moisturiser would work well I think unless you had a dry skin type. \n\nI think this foundation is good for my pimple-prone skin because of the zinc in it. The zinc seems to help combat any blemish I may have when I wear this and I love that about this foundation. Therefore pimple-prone skin may especially benefit from this foundation. \n

I'm now fully committed to only using non toxic products including make up. Packaging is so luxurious!! Love it! Clean makeup, are makeup products that are made with natural, organic, and non-toxic ingredients. 😊 Some of the benefits of using clean makeup are that it can be safer for your skin, health, and the environment.

(Shade Light) good for touch-ups on-the-go or for travel, no messy handbag!

I use the shade Light in the loose mineral powder by NBN and love the coverage it gives my skin while still being incredibly light and build-able. I know you can buy a travel brush and fill it with loose powder for on the go touch ups but I find the loose powder incredibly messy and don't like to do this when I am out and dressed in my nice clothes! This one is easy to throw in my handbag as it takes up so little room and is considerably less messyThis comes in a light (and I must say "cheap" feeling) plastic compact with a mirror in the top lid. It is made in Australia from local and imported ingredients and you get 10gr of product. Others have mentioned a sponge applicator, mine did not come with anything to apply it with, just the compact in the box. Maybe they ... MoreI use the shade Light in the loose mineral powder by NBN and love the coverage it gives my skin while still being incredibly light and build-able.

Others have mentioned a sponge applicator, mine did not come with anything to apply it with, just the compact in the box. Maybe they stopped putting an applicator in there? (my box was sealed)It is noticeably different from the loose powder version in the ability to be able to layer it - the loose powder is easily layer-able and this one quickly gets cakey and chalky if you try to apply more than one layer. I just use it for touching up my nose, chin and forehead as that is wear I tend to lose product over the day. Obviously the loose powder is better value for the price (you get 15gr in the loose for same price) but I guess we pay for convenienceJust for the record, shade Light has a yellow pull in the loose powder, but in the compact version it is considerably more warm (a beige to almost slightly orange tone).

Accentuates pores and looks cakey

The Nude by Nature Pressed Mineral Cover is packaged in a brown plastic compact with a mirror inside. The product comes with a velour puff and a matching pouch. I bought the lightest fair shade. When viewing the product in the compact, it appears to be very dark with an orange undertone. Although the product was too dark for my pale skin, I made it work by blending it well into my neckMost 100% mineral powder foundations and hybrid mineral powder foundations work well on my dry and mature skin, although they can look a bit powdery. Therefore, I was surprised that I could not get Pressed Mineral Cover to work for me.

Therefore, I was surprised that I could not get Pressed Mineral Cover to work for me. No matter how I applied Pressed Mineral Cover, it gave a cakey appearance when I looked at it in my makeup mirror. Also, the product accentuated all of the pores on my face. It is possible that if someone saw my face from a distance, the cakiness would not be obviousI first tried applying Pressed Mineral Cover with a Nude by Nature kabuki brush and a kabuki brush by another brand. The powder was very tightly pressed in the compact. It took some effort to pick up the powder and get the coverage I needed with a kabuki brush. So that I could achieve better coverage, I tried a blending sponge and a Sigma flat kabuki brush with tightly packed bristles. These gave much better coverage, but they accentuated the cakiness even more. If I built the powder up to my desired coverage, my face’s texture looked like lemon or orange peelI also tried the Pressed Mineral Cover over a silicone-based primer, a facial oil and Jurlique Activating Water Essence. I tried misting my face with a rose toning mist after applying the powder. None of these products reduced the cakinessI then tried applying a very light dusting of Pressed Mineral Cover with a fluffy kabuki brush over a natural-based BB cream that gave the coverage of a tinted moisturiser. Although this combination was not ideal, it was better than the other application methods.

Blends For A Flawless Finish

I hadn't actually tried any Nude by Nature products in the past so was quite excited to trial this Pressed Mineral Cover. The Foundation comes housed inside a box which thus holds a satin bag that contains the compact and sponge applicator. Now for me I did like the packaging except I would have loved to see a compartment under the Foundation to house the sponge but given that it comes with a bag this wasn't a problem.Now I chose this in Light for Light Skin Tones and I have to say this is a definite winner in how well this suits my skin tone. The compact is quite sleek and upon opening your met with a plastic cover which you remove to get to the product. Now upon smelling this I noticed it had a pleasant moisturiser smell but no strong unpleasant chemical smell ... MoreI hadn't actually tried any Nude by Nature products in the past so was quite excited to trial this Pressed Mineral Cover.

The compact is quite sleek and upon opening your met with a plastic cover which you remove to get to the product. Now upon smelling this I noticed it had a pleasant moisturiser smell but no strong unpleasant chemical smell you can sometimes get with compact foundations. I also noticed how silky smooth this product was after testing a small swatch on my hand to see how the colour looked on my skin.Given that this was quite a short trial I did actually multitask in order to try this out in different conditions and with different products on my skin. After cleansing, toning etc I applied moisturiser to my whole face allowed this to absorb before applying my serum, eye cream etc to one side of my face and allowing this to set. I applied the product with the sponge applicator and loved how silky smooth this felt on my skin and how easy this blended in as well as being able to build the coverage without the product looking cakey or heavy. It also covered flaws perfectly to give you the skin you have always dreamed of.After applying full makeup to the side with all my daily products and leaving the other side with just the Nude I did actually notice you get a heavier coverage with all the products than you do with just moisturiser. I wore this around the house for a few hours and then outside and noticed the side with all the products wore a little better than with just the moisturiser.My next test was applying this with my Kabuki brush with the same products on either side of my face. I actually have to say that I found I got a more polished look blending this with a brush than I did with the applicator provided. I also noticed that it wore a little better over the time that I wore this without too much wear and tear.I also applied a primer to see how well this actually would apply, however for me personally I found even when left to set for 5-10 minutes the primer actually balled up when trying to blend the foundation and found it did this with both the sponge applicator and the Kabuki Brush.Now my last test after seeing what works best and how best to applying this powder foundation was to test the staying power in the heat. Now I applied all my products in the morning as I found the foundation looked better when applied than just with a moisturiser. I used my Kabuki brush to blend and applied a little lip gloss, mascara and blush before setting with a spritz of my Makeup Setting spray.After walking and sweating on and off for an hour and returning to my car to see what the damage was to my makeup I was pleasantly surprised that this foundation looked almost as though I had just applied it and I had the slightest little wear around my mouth area but this could have been from drinking water and wiping my mouth.After testing this for the 2 days I can honestly say that this foundation has impressed me with how well this stands up to many different conditions, as well as being a breeze to apply to how buildable this is without looking cakey and heavy and letting your skin breath for a naturally flawless look whatever you throw at it.

I still look good after 8 hours

I bought this pressed powder at a Priceline sale and used it inconjunction with the NBN BB cream. Having just started this brand due to my skin sensitivity , I was happy and confident that the ingredients was trustworthy and the intentions was to experiment with organic cosmetics and compare the differences. The brown colour of the compact looks quite "earthy" , but disappointed why it didn't come with a powder puff ( considering the price ) even though package was sealed , but I decided to use a powder brush instead. Being organic I was quite intrigued and this is the first time I have used an organic powder with no talc as an ingredient and looks rock solid so you wont feel the grainy texture like normal powders. I applied my BB cream as per usual and then using a ... MoreI bought this pressed powder at a Priceline sale and used it inconjunction with the NBN BB cream.

I applied my BB cream as per usual and then using a powder brush, firmly go over the powder first to loosen it a bit then applied over my face as per usual . It felt quite light on my skin and didn't feel the inhalation of the powder which normally flys around so it felt good on the nose . I am glad I chose light/med because it matched my BB cream shade perfectly . I didn't touch up during the day at work and still my skin look quite good considering it was a little humid. I am very happy with the quality of this product and to recommend to try it if anyone wants to have a talc free powder for their skin.

Lightweight Powder

I've never tried a product from this brand or a mineral powder.I love the look of the pressed powder and the brown silky pouch it comes in. I selected the light/medium shade and this seems to be perfect!I would however recommend a swatch test before purchasing the product as it is very difficult to work out your tone based on the colour of the pressed powders.The powder also comes with a sponge however there's no space in the compact to store the sponge. Although I didn't mind the finish i got from using the sponge I avoided using it since there wasn't anywhere i could really store the used sponge.I do wish that like most powders there was space to keep the sponge in the compact itself as it kind of defeats the purpose otherwise.I primarily used this powder ... MoreI've never tried a product from this brand or a mineral powder.I love the look of the pressed powder and the brown silky pouch it comes in.

I found that it was very easy to work the product for a fuller coverage if I needed it.For an everyday look I preferred using the powder onto of a bb cream or light foundation. I haven't had the chance to use the powder over the weekend (due to short trial time) but i think it would be great to use the product on its own for a very light natural look.Overall the product did last well during the day, I did need to touch up the product towards the end of the day which was a hassle as I was using a brush since there was no real space to store the sponge.Overall a great product that I loved used, I loved the finish on my skin but due to the impractical way the compact does not allow space for the sponge I haven't given this product 5 stars.I prefer a product that I can put into my bag to use on the go if needed and although I did keep this product with me during the day to use, this was only due to the very short trial times. In ordinary circumstances I would not carry this product around with me if I also needed to carry a spare brush for touch ups.

Natural, flawless, Illuminating Coverage.

Nude has never felt better! Nude By Nature’s Pressed Mineral Cover is housed in a brown compact with mirror and has a soft applicator sponge which both sit nicely inside a pouch. A fragrance free powder that is 100% naturally derived this is great on my sensitive skin as it doesn’t cause any irritations. I found application best by using a bush which gave me greater control over how much I built up the product for an even coverage and I then used the sponge to smooth it over creating a fresh looking, semi-matte coverage. I have used this with and without primer and found it works well either way but as I have some dry skin areas and often use a primer found this to be my favourite method to achieve a medium coverage. The powder alone was great for a light coverage ... MoreNude has never felt better!

I have used this with and without primer and found it works well either way but as I have some dry skin areas and often use a primer found this to be my favourite method to achieve a medium coverage. The powder alone was great for a light coverage also and surprisingly I found that with both light to medium coverage Pressed Mineral Cover created a soft, illuminated look which didn’t sit cakey in pores or wrinkles but instead left skin looking radiant, fresh and natural while minimising my imperfections like agespots. I am fair and use the shade ’fair’ which blends perfectly and can be applied super fast without worries of foundation lines which is always a bonus.I love that this provides a lightweight feeling on my skin letting skin breathe while still providing great coverage and find it does stand up to 8 hours coverage. Being Australian made, cruelty free, and 100% naturally derived with no nasties like talc or parabens also lets me feel great knowing this is a product from a company that cares! The use of Native Australian ingredients like Kakadu plum and Cehami helps even complexion while in combination with other great ingredients like shea and avocado keeps skin feeling moisturised, pressed mineral cover has the ability to keep my dry sin hydrated minimises cakey patches and mattifies my oily zones so my face looks even and fresh. This is a great everyday powder that will be a staple for me especially through summer as I know it provides a natural, fresh coverage that lasts and s gentle on my skin. Really pleased to have discovered this and am happy that it has given me confidence to wear a powder foundation again thanks to its natural, nourishing and illuminating qualities.

Pressed Minerals

I have been using mineral foundations for over 10 years now and love that they are kind to the skin and don't contain any nasties.I was thrilled to have the opportunity to try the Nude By Nature brand since I have used their loose mineral powders in the past and loved them and also that I love usually pressed powders however generally purchase a US brand as I found it difficult to find an Australian brand that did one. So glad Nude created a pressed powder!I have light skin and there are 5 shades to choose from. I chose light/medium as it gives me a bit more warmth to the skin and because it's a mineral foundation the colour is very adaptable and blends in well.I love the packaging!

It comes in a gorgeous brown compact with an applicator sponge and has a lovely satin case giving it some more wow factor.I love that it's free of parabens, talc, bismuth and fragrance. It also has cehami and Kakadu plum for vitamin c and hydration. I definitely didn't find this powder at all drying on the skin. It's nice and light, doesn't look cakey on the skin and was very breathable and wearable on the skin.The product comes with a sponge applicator however I preferred to use a kabuki brush for a lighter and more adaptable finish. The sponge comes in handy for touch-ups on the go!I love that Nude By Nature is an Australian company. I have been purchased pressed minerals from a US company as I've found it difficult to find a great mineral powder in Australia. I really enjoyed using this product and this will replace my current brand of mineral foundation.I have used loose mineral powders before and whilst I love the coverage, I find them sometimes messy and I tend to use too much on the skin. I'm so glad Nude came out with a pressed powder alternative!Overall I really enjoyed using this product and will definitely be re-purchasing and recommending to friends and family!

Very yellow

Tried this out as the light medium was a bit dark in winter. It's VERY yellow. Yikes. I really have to work to buff it in to tone down the yellow. This should be called a golden light or warm light. No good if you have cool winter toned skin as it will clash. Such a shame as the product is feather light and you can't feel it on your skin. Nude by nature really needs to have more colour choices because so far every product is either orange or yellow toned which is no good for me.
