I bought this because I have oily skin so I thought it would be better to control the oil. It gave me a very natural look which I loved. But I was still pretty oily. Also I have large pores and it...

LOVE this foundation. It gives medium-full coverage without looking un-natural, which a lot of liquid foundations can. I feel like my skin can breathe when I have it on- it doesn't give you that...

I'm a huge fan of Bare Minerals, but on my skin, I honestly cannot tell a difference between this formula and the original. I like it, but I don't think it's worth the extra money or the extra...
