Default Drugstore mineral makeup ratings

Here's a really good article comparing drugstore mineral foundations.
The author ranks them both by price/bargain and by quality, and each product mentioned includes a link to a review of that product.
Very informative!

I'll reply to my own post here!


This article intrigued me because I'd seen IsaDora at Walgreens before (I love Walgreens! I could spend half my paycheck in there! LOL), so I was really interested to see it rated as the best quality drug store brand mineral foundation. One person commented that she'd gotten it on sale for $9.99, and the author replied that at $9.99 it would also be a great bargain.

Today (August 11th) is the last day for this particular sale (although Walgreens has weekly sales, so it may come around again), and I happend to also have a $5.00 Walgreens coupon from a previous promotion for Dove, so I managed to snag this for about $5.00!!

It does go on VERY smooth. I'll have to let you know how it wears as the day goes on.
