    So much hype about this line lured me into buying it. UGH I HATE IT. I even watched the accompanying dvd because I thought I might be doing something wrong. Forget it - it's not me. This stuff...

    There is not one thing I like about this product. First of all, it is a mess to use...you will have an orange dusting over your entire bathroom. I never use the lightest shades, and I had to with...

    I just love BE. It makes skin look flawless and it feels so light. I have used the Mac foundations but they felt to heavy and cakey. The jar and sifter is the reason why I gave it a 4. It's so...

    I gave this a shot after hearing all the hype about it. It's not the worst makeup I've ever used, but it certainly isn't the best. It is nowhere near worth the money in my opinion. After two...

    I bought this product to have as part of my kit. I tried it myself a few times just to practice with it and obtain the needed 'hand' for control issues. I must admit that I hate it. I will keep...

    Honestly, Bare Minerals is overpriced and doesn't work as well as it should. Using their techniques of layering and all that would take me forever to do correctly, and I'd rather use something...
