The major ingredients are zinc, copper, kaolin, magnesium, and listed under "may contain" are silicon, mica and bismuth oxychoride. The foundation is available in only four shades. 25€.
The pot contains 5 grams of product, and it comes with a kabuki brush. It is a bit stiff though. The lighting was not great so I could not see the coverage very well, but the foundation felt imperceptible. I might just give this a try when the weather gets hot and humid.
Another novelty that's coming up is Lancome's Tropiques Minerale collection.
With 90% of natural ingredients, Lancome claims to be offering a brand new generation of bronzer. The above is the Poudre Libre de Soleil Minérale Lissante. It has a perlized finish for a more luminous look. 43€.
There is also the compact bronzer with SPF10, featuring a nomad design. 
You can use this with the kabuki brush. 36€.
Apparently, the mineral makeup trend is just starting in Italy!

Hahha well hopefully you've have access to more mineral brands now!
Aw I can't wait for you to get a dog either! =P hahah. I get excited FOR others to get dogs.
You should try a peel! They are awesome for weekly treatments!
Nice, I am a big fan of Mineral Makeup foundation. I also tried the Dior Nude line (also made from Mineral Makeup) and it was pretty good. Still, I prefer my foundation to be a pure as possible, so I will stick to brands who have little ingredients.
hey sis. thank you for being so caring towards me. truly appreciate it x. i've been alright. i need to have my 4 teeth out asap coz it's blocking me from breathing properly. i'm so not looking forward to the pain after the operation.
i lurrveee the GA face fabric. it's so very light~~ it doesn't make my face oily too. i so need to start using my la mer TM .. -_-;;

oh used to use lancome bronzers! some time ago!! their stuff is a little over-priced there! i have never tried vichy products, looks interesting :)
