Mineral Make-up

I have a love/hate relationship with mineral make-up. On the one hand it's easy to apply and looks nice. However, my skin tends to be on the dry side and the mineral powder makes my skin feel even drier. I usually avoid this by moisturizing beforehand but sometimes I'm in a hurry and I don't have time to moisturize. Anyone else have any thoughts on this???

..hmm...yeah it tends to accentuate all my wrinkles. I still haven´t found an affordable brand I like. Have you?

Well, I have tried liquid mineral make-up by both Maybelline

and Physician's Formula

I like their coverage, but I will say that I prefer the powder mineral coverage. It's a little more coverage with a natural look, but you have to moisturize before using it. Otherwise, like you said, it can accentuate fine lines.
