    I have Rosecea and most foundation products make my face red, Bare Minerals works great. Great coverage, perfect color match and no redness. I also love Mineral Veil, especially in the summer. ...

    Not for me... I really wanted Bare Minerals to work for me! After reading reviews both positive and negative, I took the plunge, purchasing the fairly light at my local Sephora. I already use...

    I have used liquid foundations for years, and usually not spent more that $10 on one, so when I splurged and got the Bare Escentuals Get Stared Kit, it was really a leap of faith. The Powder in...

    I bought this after getting the Getting Started kit at Sephora. LOVE IT!!! It is the first thing that actually covers my rosacea. For me, it is nothing short of miraculous. It did take some...

    Bismuth oxychloride = itchy, itchy shiny skin. Not appealing for me in my late 30's. I looked ridiculous. I've liked other mineral lines much better - see review of Aromaleigh Glissade.

    A resounding yes to this. I didn't like it at first when applied at Sephora because the girl applied too much it looked like a mask. However since the nearest Sephora to me is in France, I decided...

    I've joined the bandwagon. After trying L'Oreal and Neutrogena mineral makeup foundations, I took the financial plunge and purchased a line of Bare Minerals (Sephora starter kit with light-fairly...

    I hated this product at first. It showed pores and flakes galore. Brushes it came with in the starter kit was pure crap. But for some reason, I kept on trying and trying to make it work after my...

    Let me start of by saying that I almost never wear foundation, but I have tried quite a few and most feel unnatural-looking to me, including this one. I prefer Mineral Veil and bisque.

    Takes a bit of practice to apply properly -- less is more. And it does look better an hour or so after application. Covered really well. Unfortunately, I'm one of the unlucky ones -- itched so...

    Worth it if you go to Sephora and just buy the starter kit. Then with watching the DVD, you see you need to buy even more makeup to achieve what they explain on the commercials. If you have dry...

    I liked the creaminess but the makeup had an ashy look on my skin (bismuth) like that "glare" surface of an oil slick. It didn't make me break out, though. The price is way too expensive, and I...
