    Where do I begin with this foundation? A little about me. I am in my late, late 40s with fine lines, large pores, current acne and some acne scars. I am NC 30 in MAC and it does pull a little peach...

    OK, so I guess my review is just a drop in the ocean of other mediocre reviews, and I'm not surprised. While I like the idea of a mineral, easy-set, no-caking foundation in powder form, it just...

    What's Bare Minerals "#1"? I keeps' it brief when it comes to this pseudo-unique powder 'foundation' (can you tell where I'm going?) It's not buildable. People with flawless skin always buff...

    I'm on like jar # 5 or 6 of this. It was my HG when I lived in Chicago but down here in south Georgia it doesn't hold up in the heat. I use a primer but that just wards off the meltdown for maybe...

    This was my HG foundation for years. It looks so natural and the lightest shade in "fair" matched my super fair skin perfectly (which is difficult). I would get comments all the time on my...

    First of all, the salesperson at the bare mineral counter in Hong kong was very rude. I asked to try the color and recommended me another color that would match my skin tone. She showed me a...

    I know I am in the minority here, but Bare Minerals is the closest I have ever come to an HG foundation. Thankfully, I am not sensitive to the bismuth or mica in this. In fact, this is one of the...

    I used to use this years ago, before I new anything really about makeup. Gosh this was awful stuff, it has mica in it, its why you'd get the silverish sheen look that even when u buffed and buffed...

    I'll add to the chorus of '1 lipstick' folks. This stuff is awful! I bought this product after a salesperson recommended it to me. I rarely fall for such scams, but...I must've been having...

    I purchased the one for oily skin and it works wonders. I don't find myself reaching for my blotting tissues as much but it does break down during very hot weather. I have mild acne and it covers...

    I had a terrible allergic reaction to this. I would itch when in the sun or working out. It was the bismuth oxychloride in this. In addition, I looked very ghostly in pictures. I am light medium...

    I love this foundation! The application is pretty foolproof and it gives you full coverage while still looking really natural. I wish they made some lighter shades because this oxidizes and makes...

    Lovely lovely foundation! I can't praise it enough. I've got very pale skin, and "Fair" matches it perfectly. Contrary to other reviews, I find that Bare Minerals gives fantastic coverage. The...

    The negative that comes with trying out so many cleansers, is that sadly sometimes my face reacts badly and combining a bad cleanser with my clarisonic leads to my face in hives. When this occurs I...
