    Let me start by saying I absolutely ABHOR the orginal BE formula. It is shiny and I am one of the people that has a reaction to Bismuth! It makes my face very itchy. Needless to say, this...

    I wear NC 45 in MAC, Clay 3 in Iman. In BE, I originally purchased Dark. The color looked a little chalky so I purchased Golden Dark and mixed the two. The color combo is perfect. The make up...

    I have been using BM in the tone, Warm Tan, for quite some time. I am currently using Warm Tan in the matte formula and I really like it. In my opinion, it seems to be more pigmented because...

    I have been using BM for many years, but just recently stopped because I was not happy with the finish. I would apply the product after my moisturizer, and I would be left with a shiny t-zone. I...

    Ehh. I wanted to like this..but it's nothing special. I am Nc15 and Fair was a good match for me. I like the coverage and it didn't break me out, but it didn't stay matte at ALL! I have oily skin,...

    I am allergic to BE make-up because of the Bismuth Oxychloride. Most people break out due to that ingredient. But this one doesn't have it. So kudos for BE for making one without that ingredient...

    I really like this foundation. I've used this formula for the past year. I find that at first it is a bit chalky. But it only takes about an hour to sink in and look great. I have to try Fix+ over...

    I really like this powder. I hate using powder all over my face, because to me it feels like a mask. I use this on my oily spots(Forehead, chin, inner cheeks) to keep the oils at bay. It works...

    The reviews to this are misleading. If the color looks orangey, you probably have the wrong shade, and it's not as dewy as the original because it's a MATTE formula. With that being said, I LUV...

    Generally, it's just too expensive. There are so many shades available it's almost impossible to not have a perfect color match. But this is where I say that you should really make sure you're...
