I'm too broke to try BE, so I bought this after hearing rave reviews from the girls on LJ Asian Beauty. I know some people have complained that the coverage isn't very good, but I think the...

I was hoping this would be as good as BE so I tried it before spending the cash on BE products. The brush is a mess. Bristles fell out everywhere when I first used it and they continue to fall out....

Pretty good stuff! I've been interested in trying Mineral makeup, but haven't felt like splurging on BE since I'm afraid it won't provide the coverage I desire. I picked this up at Target for $9.99...

I have tried the following mineral foundations: BE, L'Oreal Bare Natural, Senna Mineral Mix, and PF. Physician's Formula wins, hands down. My skin looks very natural with this, not "powdery" or...

Another BE convert here! I got the "Buff Beige" color to replace my "Fairly Light 1.2" BE minerals. For a mere $10, why not try it? And really, the results are just as fabulous as with the BE...

I have been using this for about 2 weeks. I paid $9.99 for it at Target. I have to say that I love it. I get great coverage, it evens out my skin tone and does not break me out and I really think...

Score. At last, a foundation that doesn't give me any of the usual qualms (too powdery, too sticky, breakout-inducing, pore-maximizing, orange streaky cakey badness). I was a BE user and while I...
