Street Wear Stay on Mineral Foundation Review

Hello IMBB Cuties!!

These days reading a lot here about mineral blush, mineral foundation everywhere there is so much mineral all around. icon biggrin Street Wear Stay on Mineral Foundation Review Every brand these days are out with their Mineral range of products. Faces Canada has mineral Lipsticks and Glosses too, Can you believe it? Everybody has become ‘Mineralophilic’ these days. :tongue: I was so impressed with the reviews that I read here on Maybelline and Revlon Colorstay that I wanted to lay my hands on at least one of these as soon as possible. Price of these brands was restraining me though. I went to my regular makeup shop and asked, if there was mineral range of products from any good brand at lower price. The SA introduced me to the newly launched Street Wear Mineral range which has blush, foundation and eye shadow. The shade that I possess is ‘Toast’, there are other two shades- Pearl, Ivory.

Price : Rs 575 for 9gms I got this after discount at Rs 547, not bad! :yahoo:

This is the Kabuki brush provided with it, not that soft. (I used my L’Oreal hair spa cream a bit to soften them, icon biggrin Street Wear Stay on Mineral Foundation Review now it is fine)There is also a small circular mirror provided with it.

Ingredients: Not mentioned.

What the Company Says:
It is a mineral powder foundation that stays on for 8 hours.

Why Mineral Range of Products:

1-Mineral makeup is manufactured with minerals which are sterilized and pulverized into a very fine powder which is then mixed with a variety of natural inorganic colorings to produce a variety of colors.

2- Mineral make-up is non-comedogenic, which means it does not block the pores of the skin but instead allows the skin to breathe, mineral makeup is very appealing for those women with sensitive skin.

3-The prime ingredients used in mineral makeup are, unlike most makeup, inorganic, which means that bacteria and microbes cannot live in the makeup and infect the skin. The fact that the ingredients are inorganic also means that no preservatives need be included and that the makeup will have a long shelf life.

4-Mineral makeup of high quality does not feel like a ‘mask’ on the skin, unlike heavier chemical-based makeup. Mineral makeup has a much lighter, almost weightless character. Many women report that wearing mineral makeup feels like wearing no makeup at all. Mineral makeup also leaves the skin with a very natural radiant glow.

5-The best mineral makeups contain a number of ingredients designed for the purpose of improving the well-being of the skin. These may include a broad spectrum of UVA and UVB sun protection, as well as zinc, magnesium and some anti-inflammatories.

6-For women with oily skin, mineral makeup can provide an excellent solution. The usual chemical-based applications are very oily.

7-Mineral makeup is well-suited for hiding the skin’s wrinkles, crow’s feet and fine lines, due to the fact it reflects sunlight. It results in a very healthy look. The top brands of mineral makeup need only be applied once a day and are water resistant. Unlike chemically-based alternatives, you can even go to sleep with mineral makeup on.

My Experience with Street Wear Stay on Mineral Foundation

After I saw the price of this mineral foundation with a claim of 8 hour staying power, I bought it immediately. After I returned home, I searched IMBB and then several sites for a review of this product, but couldn’t find anywhere. Anyways, I am fully impressed with this product and liking its efficacy. Earlier I use to think these powder foundations to be similar to compact but from IMBB reviews I came to know the difference and benefits of Mineral make up products. I wanted to have some of these products, at last bought it. It gives nearly full coverage, refines my looks, and hides fine lines. It’s absolutely waterproof, I applied a bit of it on my face and splashed water on it, but it was still there, removed it with makeup remover.

Pros of Street Wear Stay on Mineral Foundation Review
-Can be used as a sunscreen as it protects skin from both UV A and UV B rays.

-You get this at less than half the price that other brands charge for mineral foundation. :pompom:
-Quite reasonable price of Rs 575 for 9gms.
-Gives medium to full coverage.
-It’s a must for summer and places with humid climate.
-Its shelf life is 3years.
-One can wear it both during day and night.
-No obvious visible shimmer, thus ideal for day wear.
-It’s quite comparable in quality with products from well known brands.

Cons of Street Wear Stay on Mineral Foundation

-Street Wear does not have its own website, so one cannot access information on newly launched products.
-Bristles of the Kabuki brush are not that soft.
-There are only three shades in this range, so may not suit all skin tones. icon sad Street Wear Stay on Mineral Foundation Review (
-List of ingredients not mentioned.

Rating: 4.5

Shall I purchase it again?
Yes I will surely purchase this after it’s over. I am simply loving it. :jiggy1:

Overall Recommendation:
Those who want try mineral range of products but have not yet tried them can lay their hands on one of these for sure.

Oh good… I find in my climate and with my skin type, mineral foundations are just perfect. So natural looking.They really make your face glow don’t they?

Tapaswini Swain June 7, 2011 at 1:41 pm

Yess they do,they give dewy finish, if someone desires matte finish would be dissappointed.Sorry,forgot to mention this point !

What method of application do you follow ………

Reply

Faria February 2, 2012 at 11:40 am

I brought Street Wear mineral powder & to my dismay my skin appeared so dry n flaky :yuck: … Usuallly i pick Ivory Fair for my skin tone but I feel that mineral powder in this shade is not suiting me at all :waaa: or may be i should follow a new pattern of application & use a primer along … Could anybody suggest me moisturisers with spf 30 & a primer too of indian brand ……….. Coz i appear like a plastic doll when I use mineral make up …… :(
