Originally the bismuth made me break out bad. I have to say I quite love this fdtn. The packaging is much better than the original and not messy to me at all! My face looks perfected with this, it...

Years ago, when the mineral hype was at peak frenzy, I used the original bare escentuals. It was not a good experience, it made me look plastic and ill, and I returned it after co workers asked me...

I have been a bare minerals user for a few years now. I bought into the hype after being recommended by a friend, and stuck with it because I was too lazy to try other things. However, I have done...

I bought this because my dermatologist recommends mineral foundation for my acne prone, combo skin. It doesn't cover as well as Estee Lauder Double Wear and I do have to retouch. However, now that...

I have tried and tried to use this foundation. The coverage is great. Unfortunately, it stays powdery on my face and settles in dry patches and pores.

I don't know if they changed their formula or what but I really do not like this product and it makes me very sad. I used to swear by bare minerals it was always my go-to a few years back, but I...

I actually like this a lot! Now, I am a known foundation addict, always on the quest to find that "perfect" foundation. This is not a holy grail product for me, but still, I like it...a ton!...

I like this powder because it's not too heavy! I first had the original but it was way too oily and made my pores look huge (like I wasn't even wearing any makeup) so I took it back for the matte...

I've been using this for about a year and have to say that this foundation is definitely buildable and doesn't break me out. At first I packed on the powder and it looked so patchy. The "swirl,...

This is probably one of the best foundations I have used for day time wear as it is really light and natural, and helps control my oily skin. The product goes on really nice and is quite light,...

Honestly the best foundation I have ever used. ALL liquid foundations go cakey on my face, no matter how expensive - this is something to do with my skin type. This is the only foundation I have...

This is honestly the worst powder foundation I've ever used considering the price. I tried to wear it alone and the coverage was horrible. I've tried to use it to set my liquid foundations and it...

Feels sticky on your face. Also I swear right through it and the makeup gets blotchy.
