Still on the hunt for a great mineral makeup? The Budget Babe's resident beauty expert Kiki Bella suggests giving Smooth Minerals by Avon a try. —BB

Avon's Smooth Minerals is a pleasant surprise. I have tested many brands of mineral makeup and nothing yet has knocked me off my Bare Minerals horse. But Avon's Smooth Minerals collection is definitely getting me to slow down and take another look.
Avon's Smooth Minerals foundation ($11.00) is getting top marks from me. It has fantastic coverage, great oil control and looks very natural. Avon's formula is one of the more admirable (not a lot of unwanted fillers like some other brands I've reviewed ::cough cough:: Maybelline Mineral Power ::cough cough::), and I think its reflected in the product. Great for all skin types, even sensitive skin.
I'm not a huge lipstick wearer (I'm a lipgloss girl myself), but the texture and lovely shades that the Smooth Minerals lipstick ($8.00) collection has to offer left me satisfied. It's a definite try if you prefer lipstick over lipgloss.
My favorite thing from the Smooth Minerals collection is the eyeliner ($6.00). It is superb. I love a great creamy, easy to apply eyeliner and this stuff really hits the mark. Rich color, great blendability and its made from minerals, with no talc or fragrance added. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to use products with great ingredients on and around the delicate eye area. I'm loving Earth, Indigo and Iris for the fall, and Onyx is a yearlong must-have.
