Ok, so I'm a bit out of the loop, but what exactly is the big deal about mineral makeup? Why is it so special and how come everyone seems to love it?

Hi!
Supposedly, mineral make-up is a lot better for your skin. The ingredients are more natural, and it tends to cause a lot less breakouts, and in some cases, prevent them!
It also lends a more natural look than most conventional make-ups while still providing adequate coverage (for most). I require a lot of concealing work and have red spots which I need to cover, so my process is a bit more involved than most. If your skin is basically good, mineral make-up helps it stay that way or makes it better and takes a LOT less time to apply - once you get the hang of it.
It can be quite a costly process figuring out your best match and best company if you're just crazy like that (like I am) because, while most mineral make-up companies offer cheap and/or free samples, you tend to get obsessed about finding your "perfect" shade as opposed to just something that "works."
Ummm.. okay, did I just prattle on?
Benefits: better for your skin, more natural look, quicker application process (for 'normal' people)
Did that help at all?
Also, I'm supposed to be working on a tutorial today, and I will include my mineral make-up application, so once I get it all done and posted, you can see how concealing with MMU works.
