"I decided to try mineral makeup and so I had ordered from another mineral makeup company. I couldn't really find a great foundation match with that brand, even though I ordered multiple samples, and although the coverage looked good when I first put the makeup on in the mornings, by the middle of the day at work the foundation got very patchy and didn't last very well, especially in the red areas on my face.

Then I tried Signature Minerals and got a better foundation match on the first try than I had with the multiple foundation samples from the other company. Signature Minerals foundation also feels less ''heavy'' on my face, but then it lasts much longer throughout the day. This didn't really make sense to me (how could it be lighter but last longer?!), so I ''tested'' this several times and it really is true. I also found a great blush that I love (Roseberry).

I also ordered a sample kit for my mom (who usually wears very little makeup) and found a foundation match and a blush that she really liked on the first try as well, and she actually just ordered the large sizes of both of them!

Signature Minerals customer service has been truly outstanding and they have answered all my questions very promptly and have given me great feedback and suggestions. I also wanted an option of synthetic brushes because I have sensitive skin, and now Signature Minerals is already offering them, right after I asked.

Plus, Signature isn't very expensive and also offers kits (which I find to be a better value), which I've discovered not all mineral makeup companies do. I also used to wear department store makeup but I got tired of paying $30 or more just for one foundation, so I've found Signature to be an awesome value.

In my opinion, there are very few if any cosmetic companies out there who could match Signature Minerals in price, customer service, and quality."
