I personally do not like Bare Minerals. I too purchased the starter kit (and it is the most I have ever paid for make up). I found that it acted as a powder, even though the claims said it...

This product was not for me. I am 42 and this foundation settled in my lines and was too shiny. Also it didn't last through the day. I do think this is a good quality product and I know people...

This is the ONLY foundation I've come across that doesn't make me break out. I love that it has SPF in it and you can now buy it at Sephora or ULTA. Cons are definitely the packaging and the fact...

This was only an ok product for how much it costs. I got the starter kit because my dermatologist recommended it and said it was natural and would not cause major breakouts. When I tried it on at...

Great product! I've been using it for about two years and I think it works very well. Its very natural looking and conceals acne marks nicely. However, I've noticed that it somewhat emphasizes...

I was really saddened that I did not like this more based on raves from a few people I know. It made me look like an oil rig by mid-morning, face was super shiny and not natural looking. Perhaps I...

I used to think this product was great, however, the more I used it the heavier it felt on my skin (and of course I kept the brushes clean). The foundation seemed to settle into any fine lines-...
