    How stupid am I? Over a year ago, I purchased "Fairly light" at Sephora. Wore it once.. Hated it. The color was too dark on me and my face was disgustingly oily. Tossed it in my "byebye products"...

    I've been using this product for about two months on my combination skin. The shades were accurate enough. It cleared up my skin at first, but at the one-month point my skin became more sensitive...

    The older I got, the more dissatisified I became with liquid foundation, which was starting to settle into my fine lines. So I heard about Bare Minerals, did a lot of research, and decided to try...

    I am a bare minerals convert. After years of always being fairly disappointed with foundations, I found one I love. I have oily skin, and anything liquid or creme ended up looking greasy on me. ...

    I have had a love-hate relationship with Bare Minerals for years now. This really is a "good for your skin" makeup, and that's one of the reasons I keep coming back to it. I also like the "glow"...

    I love BE foundation. I wear Warm Tan. It is a perfect match. Whenever I apply the foundation I just stare at myself in the mirror. It doesn't look (or feel) like I am wearing foundation. It...

    I wanted SO much to love this, but found the application very difficult. Not only did it leave my skin dry, chalky and uneven, but the actual powder tub is REALLY messy! I think more went on my...

    I have extremely dry skin and, being of a certain age, fine lines on my eye orbit/cheek bone area. This product felt drying and seemed to emphasize, not ameliorate, fine lines in those areas. ...

    This product really disappoints me. My sensitive skin cannot tolerate it. Without it on my face make me feel better. I should not have waste my money on this. Foundation does really focus my flaw.
