    Being a creature of habit, I have assigned this stuff as my foundation of choice. I like the fact that it is not a cream foundation. The powder goes on light and last throughout the day. I also...

    I really wanted to like this foundation as I am not a fan of heavy liquid foundations, but it is just not working out for me. The color selection is not the best. I use both the fair and fairly...

    Hated this. It never looked right and felt like it was just sitting on my skin. By midday I felt overly greasy. I really wanted this to work. It hardly had any coverage and a darker shade was to...

    Overall, I like it. It's not the miracle potion that the infomercials claim (but I already assumed that, given that they obviously adjust the lighting on those "after" pics to make people glow),...

    I finished the pot I got in my Trial Kit from Ulta and then I purchased a full size, but I decided that it's too much work to buff, buff, buff the minerals into my skin to get the coverage I want.

    I'm a Bare Escentuals convert. The only makeup items I don't use from BE are the lipsticks. I use the 1.2 Fairly Light foundation. I love the way my skin looks while wearing it -- luminous,...

    I waited a while to buy this foundation since I was pretty skeptical, but like others I finally gave in. At first I liked how my face looked like after using the foundation but it was pretty hard...

    I have use a few of the items in the Bare Escentuals line. They are over-rated in my opinion. The foundation powder was mediocre at best. I am young and have very few faint lines near my eyes that...

    Since I have been using mineral make-up, my skin has never been so beautiful. (I have red dry spots along with occasional acne.) I have had much less dryness and fewer breakouts since using this...

    I waited for so long to buy bare minerals, watching the infomercial over and over. I finally broke down and bought it at Ulta, as a special starter kit. I was very excited, but disappointed in the...

    My friend recommended me BE as I works very well with her skin. However I am very disappointed. As soon as I started using it, people start asking me : "did you put foundation?" with a disgusted...

    I have fairly oily skin that is somewhat unevenly toned. This product is excellent. It is light and applies evenly. My only complaint is that it is too shiny at times. But, if you smooth it out...

    So I wish the packaging was more efficient, but I've been using BE for a few years now. When I first tried it, I thought it was breaking me out so I put it away for awhile...turns out it was just...

    MAGIC on my breakout-prone skin. This product literally defies the old adage that more makeup leads to more acne. Finally I can get natural looking coverage on my acne-prone skin and have it clear...

    Hated it, hated it. Sunk into my pores and made it appear larger. If you have large pores and oily skin, stay away form this product.
