which mineral make up works best for dark skin

I went to sephora.they had no makeup to fit my complexion. i was not offended. and btw, the bare essencials does great coverage for those who can wear it. remember that ashy looks comes from wearing the wrong foundation powder for your skin tone. not skin color. almost any makeup line can match your skin color, but the skin undertone is different. try mac boddy brown, or iman. good luck. and don't feel compelled to try everything that comes out. those who are in this for the $$$are in this the $$ if you know that I mean. and some times the new and improved hasn't made the need factor list yet. philosophy also very good.

You may wanna try Revlon Color Stay Mineral Foundation in Medium Beige. I used it on my wedding day (I used the Medium Color) and it lasted the WHOLE DAY :) I also like the way it captured on the photos coz it didn't reflect off the light that much (since it only has SPF 10) so I didn't look ghastly pale on my wedding photos.

Try using Maybelline brand, it is not harsh to skin. I hope you'll like it..
