    Another bad buy. I'm glad I was able to return this product. Too thick and made my face look greasy. After a few hours it started to settle in my fine line which can't bee seen with other...

    Pro: Gives you a nice even complexion. The price is also very fair compared to others. This is good for those who want something fast, easy, and no fuss. The brushes are of very good quality -...

    I wear NC40 in MAC Studiofix and was matched to Medium Tan in BE. I've been wearing it for a few years now. I've been satisfied with it bc I never thought my breakouts were caused by it. But...

    I, too, bought this because of the hype. But it was too heavy and too cakey for me. It made my oily areas shiny and seemed to settle in every pore, and I broke out all over my chin. I also had...

    I wanted to like this. I wanted to swirl, tap and buff and have everything look great. But that didn't happen, this is a complete waste of money and the coverage is NOTHING compared to what liquid...

    I've been using BE off and on for the past couple years, and I must say that this is pretty close to HG material for a powder/mineral foundation. And applied correctly does make your skin flawless...

    I really hate to even write this because like many others, for the price I paid, I really wanted this to work for me. Even with the BE primer, my skin looked pretty flat and dull. Every flaw was...

    I love Bare Minerals. The key is proper application, you really need to buff it well into the skin (I use the Kabuki) and then definitely invest in some Mineral Veil. It makes all the difference....

    I love the luminosity and coverage of this stuff. The only negative is it tends to cake around any flaws (pimples, wrinkles etc.). I still use it but am in search of a new foundation because...

    My fair skin gets oily in the summer and we have very high humidity. That's what attracted me to try BE in the first place. I am probably on my third or fourth jar. I have tried a Sonia Kashuk's...

    I love this stuff. It's the only foundation type product I use. The trick to getting it look natural is a good moisturizer and a big fluffy powder brush and a smaller blush brush. The smaller brush...

    I'm not a fan of the BM line, either. It just doesn't live up to the hype. Unfortunately, I fell for the hype hook, line and sinker and spent a buttload on starter kits (the basic one and the eye...
