    I was using be for a few years. During that time I had clear skin so the product went on smooth and I looked glowing. Fast forward to being pregnant and having a baby. Right now my skin is breaking...

    I used this product years ago when it first came out. I used it for about a year and dreaded it. It made my face look really cakey and dry. It also broke me out with cystic acne all over my face....

    Not a good product for sensitive skin - made me break out horribly and it took days for the redness to go down. I really wanted to like this, though! : )

    I'm not sure why I didn't like this. I think it all started when I tried my sister-in-law's Well-Rested, Bisque, and Mineral Veil and thought my skin looked nice. I went to Ulta, and to purchase...

    I love this stuff. I really dont understand some of the bad reviews. But it may be from the fact that I have pretty clear skin to begin with and was just looking for something sheer. This goes on...

    the powders for the face are ok, but not that great. the texture is light, which just doesn't do enough to help cover old acne scars. When I added more to try to build extra coverage, it just...
