Miners Cosmetics Fresh Faced Powder Reviews
Fresh Faced Powder
Soft Sand

My first impressions of this face powder were that the packaging was basic, a printed clear flip up lid on a basic black base – simple, but reminds me of supermarket or teenaged make up. I hadn't heard of Miners Cosmetics as a brand before, so had low expectations from the packaging. I normally use another brand pressed powder over cream – I don't have great skin, so find the combination of a light foundation and powder works pretty well to make me look human.
A pet hate of mine is powders with no pad to apply with, it means you either need to buy one separately, or use a brush. I decided on the latter option when trialling this powder.
I have to say, on day 1 I was really pleasantly surprised by this powder, I don't know if I had applied more than I normally would by using a brush rather than a pad, but it gave really good coverage and I looked quite alive (and considering I have 3 children under 3, this is impressive!). It didn't look mask like, blended easily and lasted well. I had plans to go out to dinner that evening, and finally got round to getting ready to go out at about 6pm, and really didn't need to re-do my face, just added a bit more to my eyes.
I've used the Fresh Faced powder for another 2 days since, and am still really pleased with it. I would say it's easily comparable to the powder I've used before, and is about 1/5th the price. I think I can cope with buying a new brush for it for that kind of saving!
I'd give it 4/5. Probably would only be improved if it came with a pad for application – or if the packaging looked just a little bit more interesting. I'm quite intrigued to try the foundation now.

I recently received the new Miners Cosmetics Fresh Powder in Translucent Ivory and I have been wearing the face powder for 3 days now, this is what I have found:
I found the powder was smooth and easy to apply although a little powdery and bitty once applied but after half an hour my skin looks lovely and smooth and coverage is brilliant as well as lasting all day!
I would definitely recommended to a friend and will also be something I will wear now.

The Fresh Faced Powder from Miners Cosmetics is a paraben free powder – not knowing what parabens were I looked it up.
Parabens are chemical preservatives that have been identified as estrogenic and disruptive of normal hormone function. Estrogenic chemicals mimic the function of the naturally occurring hormone estrogen, and exposure to external estrogens has been shown to increase the risk of breast cancer.
Firstly the powder, is fresh and compact, it glides on well with a brush over moisturiser and liquid foundation if you would like to use first, equally as good without the foundation under it. The powder went on evenly and smoothly with a makeup brush. There were no streak marks, looked fantastic all day, when applying the blusher over the make-up it set well.
I found it lasted all day with just a quick reapply later in the evening before going out…
I was most impressed with the smoothness that the powder went on and now I know what parabens are I would recommend this even more. It really made me feel glamorous!
