I was really hesitant to try this because my skin is ever so sensitive and acne-prone. The other reason being that I really wanted to like LG's Balance 'n' Brighten but the colouring was not...

I love Bare Escentuals Bare Minerals. For years I'd been looking for a makeup that didn't look like I was trying to cover the redness in my face -- this is it. I get complimented on my skin all the...

I thought this was a lovely idea, and bought a sample in a couple of the shades that I hoped would suit my skin tone. No joy. Oh, it made my cheeks and forehead look smooth, dewy and clear...

I heard so much about this product. We didn't have a sephora near by and I was so excited to go to vegas on a work trip and grab the getting started kit.
I can't say this lived up to my...

HATE this product. Bought it because I saw all the wonderful commercials and hype but wished I would've read these review first!
It didn't match my skin, sunk into my pore and made my pore look...

Ah, Bare Minerals...I thought this was the HG of foundations until I read the reviews here before I bought it. I still wanted to try it though because I was just getting bored with my Lancome...

Wanting to do good things for my skin, I researched mineral makeup for hours and decided to purchase the Bare Minerals Starter Kit (in Fair/Fairly Light). I've used the products in the kit over...

My sister loves this stuff, and begged me to let her try it out on me. I must be allergic to bismuth oxychloride, because ten minutes after she'd swirled-tapped-buffed me I thought I was going to...

First off, if you go to Sephora and get a chance to talk to an HONEST sales associate, she/he will tell you that this is not for oily skin. I was purchasing this in lieu of my normal mineral...

I just don't like Bare Minerals. The founder of the company states that (and I'm paraphrasing), "it's not a powder..." Uh...well, it looks like a powder, it behaves like a powder, it requires a...
