don't want to order more from home, so i was hoping someone could tell me where i can find some good mineral makeup...a la bareminerals or youngblood. i'm okay with trying a new brand, but a recommendation of what to look for and where to look for it would be great.

Somebody else recommended this website for ordering makeup internationally. I haven't used it yet but here it is anyway. Also, I don't know if they have the brand you are looking for but they do seem to carry a lot of brands.

Try the Mac products @ Lotte department store. I buy mineral make up there. Also try Hyundai department store, they have Mac & Bobbi Brown. Although its a bit expensive, it works out to about the same if you buy international (p&p). I also buy from Victoria Secret, have a look see on their website as well.

I use lily lolo - it is internet shopping, sorry - however the products are better than anything else I've ever used and they deliver to Korea in roughly 3-4 days (amazingly).

Korean mineral makeup might be unhealthy. Most, if not all of them, contain parabens. Best stick with the mineral makeup from home. At least you know it won't be a health hazard.

I heard Eyes Lips Face has a new line of affordable mineral makeup. Only $5 for 1.2 oz!! My friend is going to send me some next month. Can't wait to try it out!

I tried the ELF mineral makeup and while it was okay, the colors were really limited (the lightest was too dark) and the coverage nonexistant. Bummer, I gave it to my little sister whose skin is a little darker and in high school, so I just give her my crap makeup, man is she gonna miss me next year, lol.
