    I like this foundation compared to the original because there's no bismuth oxychloride in this one which makes my skin itchy. The coverage is medium at best, but it's very natural looking. I also...

    I've returned to Bare Escentuals because my Colorstay foundation caused too many breakouts, and it was hard to wash off and felt heavy on my face. I've always had an issue with Bare Escentuals...

    I have been a die hard BE foundation and concealer user. My problem is, even with the matte, my skin still gets very shiny in the middle of the day. Also, I hate that you can't get the very last of...

    I love the Matte formula more than the original! Works so well with a primer, and withstands summer heat. My skin changed during pregnancy, and this worked wonders. I'm currently using it over a...

    I only have a bit of redness on my skin - no major scarring, pigmentation or acne - that needs to be covered and this does nothing. All it does is cause major itching and irritation because, as I...

    I love this foundation. For years I have sworn off Bare Escentuals because it made my dark skin look clammy. The matte foundation was the solution for this. I love the moderate coverage of this...

    I really do like this powder foundation for everyday light use. It is a light coverage, so it just even the skin out; I have some hyper-pigmentation (light to medium dark spots on my cheeks) from...
