    All of the foundation/powder products seemed to make my pores and fine lines stand out more. I felt like I was wearing makeup. I couldn't wait to wash it off. I would not purchase this again.

    It takes a lot for me to actually take the time to sit down and write a review. I was at Sephora yesterday playing around and I can't believe how much I LOVE this foundation. I have uneven...

    I love my MAC Studio Fix, but for the summer I needed something lighter on the skin. BE is my fav, it goes on light and smooth. My face looks brightened, evened out, natural and flawless without...

    I had a hard time finding a foundation in the past and I was pretty skeptical about Bare Minerals. But, I'm now a believer. I don't need much coverage and I only use foundation to cover some minor...

    At first, I did not like this. However, I realized it was because I was using the wrong brush. I used the foundation brush from MAC and sort of "paint" it one and then I buff it into my skin...

    Overall, I do like Bare Minerals make up. You have to be careful not to use too much, and my bathroom is a mess every morning, but it feels great on my skin. It doesn't FEEL like I have a lot of...

    Obviously, the use of minerals and the exclusion of unfriendly ingredients makes Bare Escentuals far better than most cosmetics companies. I think, for certain skin tones, this makeup is...

    Made my face look cakey, didn't help with oil control, and also my chin mainly started to itch after I put it on. The packaging could be better also. I think it is too $$ esp you have to rebuy the...

    This is the best foundation I have ever used. Besides giving me good coverage it looks natural and does not trouble my troubled skin. Also, it will make your skin better.

    This gives skin an <b>angelic</b> glow. Application is tricky, but it's worth it and it doesn't take too much time.
