Loose powder similar to Clinique Superbalanced/general recs. for loose powder

I don't want to use Clinique Superbalanced loose powder anymore, since I heard they are testing on animals. I have a couple of bottles of foundation from them left, and then I won't be using them either.

Can someone recommend a loose powder that is either similar to Clinique Superbalanced or really any one that you love? I want excellent coverage without looking cakey. Department store brand is find, but I actually prefer to try to save a few bucks by getting a drugstore brand.

You mean like the powder foundations? I really like Bare Minerals. It's a little bit pricey but lasts a long time and works really good. I buy it in the kits so that it comes with a bronzer and some other stuff. I have red skin all the time, even if I don't have acne breakouts, I just have red skin spots I also have very sensitive skin that is mostly oily. The Bare Minerals doesn't make me breakout, it covers the red on my face without looking cakey and I like the powder better for the oil. When you buy the kits, it comes with something called mineral veil and you can apply that throughout the day if you get a bit oily.

I like to put a primer on first. Around Christmas, I found a great primer at MAC but I read that post on FHF also that said Estee Lauder tests on animals and someone said that MAC is owned by them so I won't be buying that primer again. I also found a good one that was green a few years back that helped to cover my red.

I have tried Neutragenas powder foundation and it worked too, not as well as Bare Minerals but it did the job.
