    I've never been a fan of bare minerals powder, mostly because of my skin itself. It is combination, but I'd say it's more dry than oily. Powder does not do any good for dry skin, except make it...

    I'm almost scared to write this review, like I'll jinx the magic... Before I started using this in mid-March, my skin was very problematic- active acne, scars, oily, sensitive... good stuff,...

    does it provide coverage? NO. I seriously think those infomercials on tv are a complete lie. It does not cover anything at all. The packaging is awful because unless you purchase the ones with the...

    The full sized jar is around $25. I bought the color in medium beige and sadly, it no longer matches my face, as I've lightened up significantly. I'm around an NC20 now. The powder doesn't leave me...

    At first, I liked bare minerals. Although, I did notice that it didn't look as "natural" as I had hoped. After using the makeup for a while, I started breaking out and my skin got really dry. I...

    First off, let me say my negitive review of Bare Escentuals could have been avoided if I had not shelled out the $60 for the starter kit. I have chemically sensitive, acne prone skin with an olive...

    When I was younger, this product was my HG. However, back then, I didn't have much acne or acne scars, so I didn't have much to cover up. Now that I'm older my skin has gotten oily and more prone...
