Matte Foundation Loose Mineral Powder Foundation Makeup, Loose Powder Makeup Oil Free Talc Free Powder, Natural Makeup Mineral Foundation Full Coverage Natural Foundation Powder .15 oz/4.5g

My main priority is non-toxic when it comes to makeup, and second is full coverage (hello freckles and acne scars.) I struggled finding the right shade for me in many brands, and tried liquids and powders. This powder foundation is not only the most perfect shade for me, but I love the light feel but FULL coverage I can achieve! I am light-fair skinned with pink undertones, and the Cool 3 is the most perfect match for my skin I've ever found. After roughly 2 coats, it almost gives an air-brushed look. I also have highly sensitive, breakout prone skin and this caused no issues. Super happy!

I’ve only used this for a week so take this review with a grain of salt, BUT, I am so impressed with Alima Pure Satin Foundation. For the last five years, I’ve struggled with acne along my jawline. It may been part hormonal acne but I was constantly getting cysts, no matter what time of the month and so, I was slathering my face in nars radiant concealer and sheer glow foundation. Well, finally I stumble upon some blog that recommends Alima Pure because it doesn’t contain bismuth oxychloride. So I buy it on a whim. And within one week of trying it (seriously I bought this foundation five days ago), my skin is the clearest it’s been in a decade. I could honestly cry. I will never stop using this product if these results remain. The color is a perfect match (which is hard for me because I am an extremely pale olive tone) and the texture is great. At first I was like, oh no, I look like a bag of powdered sugar but within an hour, the minerals melt into your skin and blend seamlessly. By the end of the day, it absorbs all my oil so I have way less blackheads and way more natural, beautiful skin. To cover my acne scars (which are now disappearing), I tap a little extra powder onto a brush and press it onto my dark spots. I have been getting compliments on my skin all week. Please, if you struggle with acne, breakouts or bad skin, please try this product. Your life will change!

I found this years ago on a blog about getting rid of acne, and my skin cleared up so quickly after switching to this after a decade of trying ever “noncomedogenic” foundation in the book. The finish is so natural, coverage builds to almost full, and it is fragrance free! Times being what they are, I tried recently to switch to a less expensive alternative and regretted it immediately. HG, worth every penny, please never go out of business.

I have very acne-prone skin and it can be more affected by the type of makeup I use. It took me a long time to come to the reality that makeup is essentially dirt on your face. However, there is some dirt that is less problematic than others! It is also very important to me to use products with safe ingredients rather than smothering chemical-dirt on my face. I used Bare Minerals for almost a year but discovered that even that had ingredients that were weighing heavy on my face. I switched to Alima Pure a few years ago and have been using it ever since. I have found the ingredients to be gentler on my face. I only wear makeup a few days a week, so since I only buy new foundation every four months or so, the price is worth it to me. I will say that this stuff does not last as long as Bare Minerals and the product does not go as far. This is also the same price for slightly less product. However, non-toxic skin-safe products is more of my priority and therefore I will pay more for that.

I have very problematic, acne prone skin that requires high coverage, non comedogenic, and preferentially clean/non-toxic makeup. I’ve searched high and low for a good powder after my pressed powder brand added a comedogenic ingredient. I was skeptical to try loose powder because of the anticipated messy packaging, however this product is amazing for my skin! It has beautiful, matte coverage that’s light and non cakey. It actually covers my blemishes (paired with liquid foundation and concealer) and gives the perfect balance of matteness and glow. Best of all, the ingredients are very clean and I’ve had no breakouts from this! I do wish the price point was lower for the amount of product you get. But I’m happy enough with the quality to continue using :)

I love the product, but it is a very small amount of powder for the money. I would need 2 of these per month.

I was really struggling earlier this year to find a clean foundation that wouldn't breakout my face and also didn't have any of my allergens in it. I was so happy when I found this foundation, with so few ingredients but so many color options. It covers very well (I always put my moisturizer or a primer on first) and blends in for a natural look. It stays on pretty well, but sometimes does need re-applied/touched up mid-day. I've been using this foundation for a few months now, and am so happy with it! My face feels healthier and looks clearer than it has in years! I wish I had tried it sooner!!

Sent me the incorrect shade twice in a row. After seeing they've also effectively doubled the price by shrinking the jar and upping the cost, decided to switch to another company after about 15 years of being an Alima customer. Even their foundation samples on their website are an absurd $5 apiece for a dusting of product plus $8 shipping. Love the ingredients and quality, my skin loves it and it perfectly matches my skin tone and looks great, but it's time to move on now that there are real competitors out there.
