    I like the matte foundation a lot better than the original. It covers better and makes my combination to oily skin look much less shiny. I also LOVE the new sifter! I still use liquid foundation...

    I was so excited about this foundation because it's their first matte version without bismuth. Unfortunately it does nothing that it was designed to do, it left my skin super oily!!! I have found...

    After using my MAC Studio Fix powder for 3-4 years and wearing only liquid foundation, I was a firm believer that loose powder and bare minerals in particular would never give me the coverage and...

    I got this as a sample since the local Sephora is constantly sold out (being a canada store, we always get the last of the shipments) and the sales lady emptied the rest of the tester out for me. I...

    I have been a loyal Bare Minerals user. I decided to try the new matte foundation since I have acne prone skin. It didn't cover nearly as well as their original foundation. It also didn't blend...

    I've been using the matte foundation with the sifter packaging for a few weeks now. It's obvious that I'm not getting enough coverage, since all my imperfections can be seen when I look at myself...

    I do like the Fair shade in this very much! I always use the mineral foundation primer by Laura Mercier with it, which evens the application, keeps the color true and extends wear. LM also makes a...

    Very good coverage and truly matte. It does have golden undertones which can look orange at first until the foundation settles. I usually set it with some silica powder and that lightens it up...

    I have used the original BM for years, up until I got a shipment that was funky. For some reason it was just clotting and spotting, not spreading, etc. I called BE and asked if they changed the...

    PROS Absorbs more oil than the regular formula. Doesn't look dewy or waxy like original formula. Doesn't make me ITCH because it doesn't contain Bismuth. Natural Looking like the original...

    I have never used the original formula, so I cannot give my own review as to whether which of the two formulas work better. However, when I swatched the orignal formula on my hand and did notice...

    Just OK. I tried the original, but hated how shiny it was on my skin. I felt like it made my pores and any fine lines and wrinkles more obvious. So I like that they came out with a matte version....
