    I absolutely love the entire bare escentuals line. I have used this line for five years with excellent results. I will say the propensity for ending up in the wrong color is high if you are not...

    I bought this about a year ago because i wanted a makeup that wouldn't irritate my skin or cause acne. I thought this makeup would do the trick since what all the advertising promised and the...

    I bought a kit or two of this from QVC. The first time I bought it, I just could not "get" it, but I tried again and I really like the results. I have developed a system where I use mineral oil...

    I bought a container of foundation off of ebay on a whim. It's not the miracle product the infomercial makes it out to be, but whenever I use this I do feel like my skin looks fresh and glowy. I...

    I have been using Bare Minerals for about a year, and I do not have many complaints about this product. Before using this, I would struggle to find liquid foundations that matched my skin tone and...

    I have fair skin. It looks alright with the way I am, but in itself it's VERY pale. I went to Sephora to get a starter pack, but they don't sell the lightest color in one! How dumb is that! So I...

    This product made my normally dry skin very oily. It made my skin break-out badly, when I normally rarely break out. For whatever reason, this foundation reacted horribly with my dry, sensitive skin.

    this is not good for us gals with sensitive skin because of the bismuth. It made my skin itch and burn and it did not look all that natural either. I know the ad says that it helps minimize pores,...

    I love, love, love the blush from this line, but the foundation is defintely sub-par. I haven't had any problems from the bismuth, thank goodness. I enjoy the soft sheen it gives me skin. HOWEVER,...

    I have to say that for about 2 years I used the BE foundation and mineral veil without a problem. I don't wear make-up every day, so it took me a long time to use up the first batch. But in Oct. I...
