    I love bare minerals! I can apply the foundation and look very refreshed and awake but never cakey. It has a medium coverage and works well as a concealer. It works really well as a powder over...

    way to many steps and layers and complications there are way better mineral lines out there to be paying to much for this one they also have a poor color payoff in their eyeshadows

    This product DID NOT stay on for me. I am a student and this doesen't last 2 periods. It never stays through gym or soccer. It's certainly not water proof and it smells really bad. If you don't...

    Worst makeup I have EVER put on my face!! First, it made my skin itch like crazy! Especially if I wore it to the gym, or began to perspire during the day. I couldn't stand it. Second, I have an...

    This is a great natural looking foundation that helps my skin. I used to break out much more and foundation tends to look cakey on me. But putting this on is fool proof and I love the natural...

    Great, great product, but the packaging is messy. It's lightweight for those who are oily and acne prone like "moi", but the coverage, well....not as great. You may have to re-apply...

    What can I say about a product line that as been reviewed to death. Either it works for your skin or it doesn't. For me personally, this is the best make up investment I can buy to have a near...

    This is the best all-around foundation you can find. It's so light that your face feels free! The trick to using Bare Escentuals is to use very very little (most people over-use at first) and then...

    This product seemed to work well at first - providing buildable coverage. Over time, however, my skin would react to something in this and cause my skin to itch and develop red bumps. My skin is...

    Bare Minerals is a great foundation that doesn't make me break out even if I sleep in it. The drawbacks are the price and the level of coverage. Maybelline mineral make up is what I use when I...
