 Flat, too many steps February 6, 2010

The Bare Escentuals products don't work for me. Yes, the makeup stayed on all day but was cakey and it felt like it was a pore clogger. I didn't like the way it is dispensed, makes a mess when transferred to the cap and whirled around. Also, it is very expensive. MAC products are by far better.
 Not bad February 3, 2010

This makeup does not offer a lot of coverage. put too much on and its EXTREMELY visible and looks cakey. Does brighten skin up, however, if you have naturally clear skin. Should not be used with dry skin because it will enhance this even if you moisturize
as foundations go...really not my favorite January 29, 2010

Every couple of years I go back to mineral foundation because I love the idea of using a dry brush to apply foundation. I get tired of washing my regular foundation brushes and I think - it won't be as messy when I go back to mineral foundation.
The is the last mineral foundation I used and I now remember why I don't regularly repurchase them.
1. They are messy, the powder gets everywhere, including my handbag.
2. I find the coverage to be either too light or just cakey.
3. This particular one oxidized on my face, turning dark and orange after just a couple of hours.
4. I have wrinkles and I feel that this one enhanced them rather than downplaying them.
So while I like the idea of these products, this one failed me.
A Unique Idea for a Product January 20, 2010
Brooklyn Mark (Boston)
BareMinerals isn't the greatest foundation out there. It isn't the worst either. It was just okay. There are a few aspects to this product I really like, and I wish could become aspects of my other favorite products.
A. I enjoy how it let my skin shine through.I could spend my money trying to get a skin routine to improve my natural skin, instead of covering up my skin. A little goes a long, long way. It is a light to medium coverage foundation. If I tried to apply heavy coverage it irritated my skin and left a shiny, cakey look. Definitely not for people looking for heavy coverage/ photofinished looks. It is nonbuildable.
B. I use the tan kit, and I think you are supposed to mix pots to create a genuine color, but medium tan looks perfect on me. I like how the color stays on, and the color you put on is the color you stay with throughout the day, no matter the undertone of your skin.
C. The starter kit is 60 dollars and comes with high quality brushes. Not something you can find purchasing a liquid foundation.
D. Pots last a long time, if product is put on and used correctly. If you take care of your skin adequately.
BareMinerals puts you under the assumption because a product is a powder it is lighter than a liquid. Not always true. My favorite liquid foundation is much lighter, and not to mention a drugstore brand ( Neutrogena Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup) Like BareMinerals it isn't for someone who needs heavy coverage. If you don't wash the liquid makeup off it will clog your pores. BareMinerals takes a little longer for me to break out, but it isn't makeup so pure you can sleep in, there is no such thing.BareMinerals doesn't break you out as quickly because you use so little of the product.
All in All, great product when my skin is behaving, but sometimes we all break out with blemishes and need that heavy concealer and need a good matte liquid foundation. It is a great addition to my makeup bag, but not great enough to be the only foundation I need.
My daughter won't use any other make-up January 10, 2010

I just buy what my daughter likes as gift this Christmas.
She has used many different mineral make-up and always goes
back to this one.
