I want to try mineral foundation because I heard it's better and more natural for your skin but than I also heard that it's just a marketing thing, has anyone had any experiences with mineral foundation?

Mineral foundation is great but if you have a little bit of wrinkles in your face the mineral foundation will make those lines more prominent:/ that's the only problem.

Mineral foundation should be avoided for acne prone skin.
Although the 'minerals' are quite minuscule - they basically 'poke' at acne and can irritate it. This can make it even worse.
Granted, this is if you continuously use mineral foundation. Once in a blue moon won't ruin it but if you have acne prone skin I would avoid it altogether.
And yes, there is no difference. It's just a different form with a marketing term thrown in to appeal to customers.
