**UPDATE 11/29/06** I have given up on the BE mineral foundation -- the itching has DRIVEN ME CRAZY. I took about 3 months for it to start, but when it did, I couldn't take it! I recently switched...

I hated the packaging, you couldn't carry it around without having all the contents come out when you open it. It doesn't cover very well and it does emphasize any wrinkles. It's way too expensive,...

I would not recommend this product for dry, mature skin. This product sits on top of your skin accentuating fines lines and dry patches. The coverage was just okay. You need to pile it on to...

I used this product for over six months this year. I was afraid to try anything else, because the coverage was so good. The foundation doubled perfectly as a concealer, which covered all kinds of...

Love this product - especially for summer! Technique is everything though. Conceal first, then brush this stuff on. Great, smooth feel and lasts all day. The best part is that it does not fade...

I tried this on and off from Jan to May because I wanted to make sure I wasn't judging it too quickly, but matter how much I tapped or buffed, it never looked as natural as when I use my Loreal...

I have been using this foundation for over a year, and it is (by far) the best foundation for me that I have ever tried. Every other foundation I have ever tried caused me to break out badly within...

When I first tried BE, I loved this. However, after a while I found my face getting yellower and yellower. Don't know how, but it seemed that somehow the foundation that seemed the perfect colour...

I bought the kit from Sephora, incredibly excited. For a few months I COULD NOT LIVE without BE period. It was my HG. However, lately, I find that even after moisturizing + priming, I look pretty...

This is a pretty good product. The pros is that it lasts an extremely long time. I've had mine for over a year now (although now used constantly, I alternate foundations). It's good for a light...

I love this product. The only caveat for me is that I have to use a makeup primer underneath, otherwise it seems to accentuate my pores. I have fairly sensitive skin that's normal to dry. I don't...

I will buy anything that works well, and decided to try BE after I saw the infomercial. I have combination skin and use Retin-A micro, so my skin has a tendency to be red and flaky. The BE works...

I love this product!! I have dry, flaky skin. This powder glides on and it doesn't get caked on. It doesn't get caught up in the dry spots.

I really like this product. Especially on warm humid days. I goes on very well and does not show all of my wrinkles even though it is a powder. I always have some on hand, never let it go empty.
