    I give them credit for getting me into MMU and the swirl-tab-buff thing, but now that I've tried other MMU such as EM and Physicians Formula, I think it is a very expensive, but yet a subpar...

    I have dry skin so maybe that's why this product did not work for me. It is so awful! It brings out my dry skin and makes it look even more flaky than it actually is. I even coated my skin with...

    Using for a few months. It's ok. Goes on nicely, quickly. Gives me great coverage on spots when necessary. Rubs off easily, maybe because I sometimes only use foundation. The packaging...

    The commercials always get to me. I've tried this in fairly light & it seemed too orangy one me & the fair is too white on me. This stuff sits on my face & looks like an icky mask. Doesn't look...

    Bare Escentuals bare minerals makeup is a fantastic product. Sometimes, I find that sensitive areas of my face do get itchy, but as long as I try to adhere to the "less is more" philosophy, then...

    I don't love this product, but it's good if you're in a hurry and just want to even out your skin quick. It evens out skin tone but doesn't hide flaws well. And if you have dry skin or large pores,...

    The foundation does a great job at evening out skin color but doesn't hide major skin problems (especially if you have dry skin in some places, it just makes it look unnatural).

    I've been using B.E. foundation for about two months now and have no complaints. At first, I didn't quite get the hang of "there shouldn't be any visible product on the brush" and ended up with...

    This product emphasizes facial lines more than a cream or liquid based foundation. I'm sure it's fine if that is not an issue. I am 39 and only have a few lines, but the ones I have I don't want...

    My skin is in pretty good condition, so I can go without using a powder, but this helps even everything out JUST A LITTLE. I like how it gives me a nice even tanned look without feeling too...
