    LOVE this product. I buy the new matte formula, and it works miralces for my oily, acne prone skin. It keeps my skin matte most of the day, and it gives a beautiful, natural finish. I don't need...

    The best mineral foundation I have ever used. Wearing it alone looks nice and natural, but I like a fuller coverage so I wear it on top of Revlon PR and it looks awesome. Also, I call the mineral...

    For all of those who commented that Bare Minerals foundation makes their skin itch and turn red- most likely this is from the bismuth oxychloride in the makeup. It irritated my skin BADLY. I...

    BE is nice. I really don't have too much to complain about. It makes my skin look good, I just kind of hate the mess it makes being a loose powder. I've found Pur Minerals does the same for my...
