I tried this at the Bare Escentuals store in the Mall of America so I know it was applied correctly. I just really didn't like it at all. It seemed to bring out fine lines I never knew I had! It...

At first try, I didn't like BE AT ALL. However, I decided to brave it and try the starter kit of the 1.2 foundation and it is perfect for me! I am now a BE convert. As i get older, I prefer a much...

Surprising good coverage for redness and blemishes. I'm fairly pale,and this is the best match I've found in foundations yet. Hard on dry spots or fine lines - settles in and could look cakey if...

Based on the reviews and the infomercials I was sucked into the world of BE. I was quite skeptical about this product giving any coverage, but I was pleasantly surprised. Yes it gives good...

I do love this makeup. The only coveat would be the pearlesence that makes it appear shiny on my oily skin. I can tone this down, however, with the mineral veil. The only way I could get it to...

I have large pores and I absolutely cannot use this makeup! It just looks like I am wearing a lot of powder and the coverage is lousy.

I was very excited to try this out. After I tried it I was very disappointed. It was very messy and kind of cakey. I applied it lightly and it didn't cover well, so I applied some more and it just...

It's so fun to apply. It has good coverage and makes your skin look like it's glowing. I don't really like how the lid gets dirty after use, but it's a great product. EDIT: This makes my skin look...

I've found my HG foundation. I think this is probably excellent for those with oily skin. Blends well with an already moisturized face. It doesn't look like I'm wearing foundation, even though my...

I really love this foundation. I tried the Light 2 and that looked way too dark and cakey on my skin, so I swapped for this shade instead. It's a perfect match for my NC20 skin! I don't use the...
