I do like BE's coverage, and sometimes alternate between that and the MK. I also think I've found my match in Merle Norman's mineral makeup. Before you buy the BE, "try" it on first at a BE store, or Sephora or Ulta and see if the bismuth oxy_______ makes you itch. Many people complain about that, especially if you start to get a little hot or sweaty.

AND BE is coming out (as of today, I believe) with about 3 or 4 new shades, which should give "us" a few more choices. Once I run out of my current jar, I'll check out the other, but I do think that warm tan is my color.
Thanks for the tip. My skin tends to be sensitive, so I willd definitely try BE before buying. If you had to compare MK and BE, which do you prefer and why? My LS uses BE and it gives her skin this beautiful dewy glow, which is what made me want to try mineral makeup. The MK gives me great coverage with a natural look (I use Bronze 1), but it doesn't give me that dewy look that my LS seems to have with BE.
