    I am a 21-year-old African American female, and like many young women and women of color I dont like to wear foundation that makes it look like I have foundation on. And thanks to my genetic makeup...

    I think the key to this product working well is if you have fairly good skin to begin with. My skin is very oily, and my pores are on the larger side. I also tend to get red in the t-zone, and...

    I love bare minerals. I was skeptical when the makeup artist at the store told me that it would improve my skin, but she was right! My skin definitely has broken out a lot less than it usually...

    This product is not for anything but LIGHT coverage and really does wear off by lunchtime (not only does it feel like I'm not wearing any makeup, it LOOKs like I'm not wearing any, too!). It also...

    My best friend and my sister swear by it, and it looks fantastic on both of them. I thought I would give it a try. My skin tends to be oily in the T-Zone, so I prefer a powder foundation anyway....

    Okay, I use this and I like it BUT it doesn't give me quite the coverage I would like on my problematic skin. It's true that it is light and it doesn't feel like your wearing makeup but I find...

    Wasn't impressed. It's supposed to be used as a foundation, however, it's more like a powder. It's shiny when applied and doesn't cover that well. I didn't want to waste my sample, so I only used...

    I have oily skin & this does nothing to help that problem. The 1 thing I like about this product is that the color looks natural; perhaps b/c of how it is applied you can't really tell where it...

    I am very fair and BE's lightest foundation is too dark for me. Very few brands carry light enough foundation for my ivory-porcelain skin. It also felt kind of odd on my skin.
