    Really wanted this product to work since it doesn't have the bismuth that usually breaks me out. Unfortunately, whatever else is in BE breaks me out too. Good coverage, but why use something...

    I had high hopes for this product simply because it didn't contain Bismuth, but I've come to the consensus that BE just sucks all around....at least for me. This would probably work wonders on ...

    The new Matte is awesome. I've always been a fan of BE products, and fortunately I don't have any reaction to the bismuth. The new Matte doesn't contain bismuth, and makes me look poreless. I agree...

    I love this! The original was way to shimmery and made me look sweaty. This one is just right. It lasts all day and absorbs my oil. I have combination skin, so after the makeup "settles" and...

    I used to use the original foundation but once fall hit, it started making me break out horribly. Because of that, I was a hesitant to try the new one. I've been using it for two days now and love...

    For my oily skin, this does the job. Note that unlike what a review says below lauroyl lysine is not coconut oil but a derivative of the amino acid, lysine. Amino acids are proteins and oils are...

    I was looking at the ingredients and found that Lauroyl Lysine is actually coconut oil, would this cause breakouts?!? Ever since I started using this stuff I got really bad ones but am not sure if...
