    I really wanted to love this product, unfortunately it didn't work for me at all. My skin looked cakey after the lightest of applications and it didn't cover as well as I would have liked. The...

    This product is pretty good, but not my HG powder. It's good at covering up minor blemishes, which I liked, but it wasn't very matifying and I don't love the finish. I felt like if it gave me a...

    You need to practice applying the correct amount, initially I was applying too much and looked unnatural and plastered in make up which is not the look I was going for. However if you get it right...

    I use Bare Minerals original Foundation SPF 15 in "Fair." This is a very natural looking foundation that doesn't clog pores or make you break out. It is important to really buff it into your skin,...
