    I purchased the original Bare Esentuals foundation a few years ago. I used it for a couple of days and every day I had a few new cystic pimples so I stopped using it. I did like the subtle glow and...

    Holy crap, this stuff is awesome. I'd been using the original BE formula on and off for a few years but heard about the formulation changes for the matte and decided to try it. It's great for a...

    I absolutely LOVE matte. I have been wearing the original formula for about 5 years off and on, always hating how my oily skin looked so shiny from it, turns out thats because it has a soft...

    I actually really love the new matte version of BE foundation. Used to use the regular version but it just got to shiny looking and I dont think anyone is a fan of looking like a greaseball. Love...

    I used the original for years, and got a nice large sample of the new Matte formula from Sephora. Well I was very underwhelmed. It's not bad, just nothing special, and easily duped or outperformed...

    This stuff is pretty good. I've used the regular for about 3 years, and while it was also nice, it made my face oily a little too quickly. This gives me maybe an hour or two more until I have to...

    I used regular Bare Minerals foundation for several years, both liked and disliked it, and eventually the negatives outdid the positives, and I gave it up. I was glad to get a sample of the new...

    I'm a huge fan of Bare Escentuals so when they came out with a matte version I had to try it. I love it! It has the same coverage as the original but with better staying power on my oily skin and...

    I got myself a free sample at Sephora instead of buying it. Happy I didn't. With someone who has acne scars, this didn't really do much to cover those scars -or- level out my face color. Ugh! It...

    I really like this version of BE. The original version made me look like the Tin Man and it also made me ITCH like crazy. It wasn't until reading here that I learned about the bismuth. I used...

    I never tried the original formula for fear that it might irritate my super sensitive skin. So when this came out, I thought I may as well give it a shot. More about my skin: combination, mac...

    I really wanted to love this product, but found the color (Fair) to be enough unlike the Fair in the original foundation that I am no longer a color match, and that's the lightest one they make, so...

    Well, I thought I was going to like this. When I first put it on the finish was nice, matte, but not too matte. Fairly sheer, but just enough coverage. Not too itchy like the regular BE, but I...
