All about Natural MSF's

[Sanne]

I have NO idea what to expect for them...

from what I've read they are non shimmery and the colors are named just like blot powder....

what are your ideas on how they could be used????

 

[Shimmer]

if they're the ones that just look like pressed powders (which is what they looked like to me) I'm really at a loss :/

 

[Parishoon]

the way they sound, to me, it seems like a bronzer a plain ol' baked bronzer

I'd be so disappointed if that would be true!! but then again, I'd love it when I see it

But there were some roumors that they a MACs attempt to mineral foundation aka Bare Essentials, right ?

I would love to get a mineral foundation by MAC....

What's the difference between it and powder if it doesn't have a sheen to it?

that's what i think too.

 

[Shimmer]

but isn't the point of the traditional MSF to be a highlighter or a face brightener?
How.......can it brighten when it's...matte?

I think they will give to skin a dewy look but without shimmers, skin can look dewy without shimmers, because they're baked! They could be used all over the face and ody and give that look that we all love to see on models in a summer magazine photoshoot!! just my opinion!

 

[Cool Kitten]

that would be like UD baked bronzer then, same concept. Hardly original.

 

[Shimmer]

I really think we'll have to see them IRL to get an appreciation for them.
It's an entirely different product from what we have come to know as an MSF, so I don't know really why they're calling it the same thing, but okay...Perhaps we'll all be pleasantly shocked with them?
OR...
maybe it's the MSF minus the glitterbomb some of them seem to have (I'm looking at Naked You here) (hey, that was almost funny) so the softness will be there without the disco effect?

I envision these as kind of something kind of like the effect of wearing BE's mineral foundations + Mineral Veil in that they seem kind of like a powder foundation that will give you a dew-y effect for the summer. I'm actually pretty intruiged if that's what they end up being like, because in the heat lately I've just been wearing Blot Powder and would like something a bit more (I'd wear my BE stuff, but it hates me and makes my pores look so big that they each need their own zip code) without the heavy feeling of a liquid foundation.

 

[Patricia]

i'm really curious about them really...

 

[Sushi_Flower]

They could potentially be really good..like a face enhancing product without the obviousness of the coloured MSFs. Like a 'glow' without shimmer..

If they're great in the way i'm imagining they might be and they're LE then i shall be mad...!!!

 

[aziajs]

Well, they can't be bronzers. Look at how light those first two are. I think they're more like a light foundation. And from what I gathered from the descriptions they give a matte finish.

If it's a couple of shades lighter than your skintone, it will highlight. It might need a little more blending, though. Benefit's High Brow is a matte eyebrow highlight.

On that note, maybe these could be used for contouring the face? I'm not really sure what to expect.

Hmmmm true.

I think this is MAC shot at putting out a "mineralised" pressed foundation powder. I'm definately going to check these out in person.

Here's a link with pics of the skinfinishes and mineralized eyeshadow duos. Hope that helps clear up the confusion.
