Can't live without it!
Bare Minerals has dramatically changed my skin. I have tried so many foundations including Chanel, Dior, Clinique and Lancome and this has been my go to product for the past 2 years. It provides me with full coverage and stays on all day. The minerals may not set in if you dont buff it well enough with the brushes. Once you find your right color it will keep your skin smooth and it even helps with acne! I would definitely recommend. It may be pricey but def well worth it!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Love it!
I was having some break-outs. I thought my liquid foundation was clogging my pores... I heard mineral makeup could actually help acne issues. The first time I tried bare minerals it didn't seem to cover that well. But, I gave it a second chance and loved it!! I think I just needed to get used to a more natural look. My only problems are the shiny forehead in pictures and after exercising it is caked up...This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Radiant!
I love this makeup! It is so easy to use! I can apply each step relatively fast and be done in no time! It evens out my skin tone, because I have a lot of red in my face. LOVE ITThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I love it!!
I love this product! I have Rosacea & have worn liquid foundation since middle school. I love this product because my face feels smooth unlike with liquid foundation which makes me feels icky mid-day. I also love that it covers great, but I still don't have to wear blush 'cause my rosy cheeks show thru a little. I bought the kit from Sephora where they could put it on me & tell me which color I needed. I would def. recommend this to a friend & I will continue to wear it!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

A BIG NO for oily skinners!!
I tried and wasted a lot of money on this product. In my opinion, this is NOTHING but glorified powder!It didn't cover my flaws a bit and felt and LOOKED very cakey and VERY drying. I have oily based skin and without the Mineral Veil i was nothin but a nasy oil slick within 30 minutes! Yuck!!! I couldnt believe how much i dissaproved of this makeup. And i don't know honestly if its really "go...read moreod" for your skin... i read somewhere online that its pullin your leg! But i dont know, i can see normal skin people having sucess... but i'm definelty better off with my 10$ liquid foundation.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Didn't live up to the hype
I bought this after my best friend, who rarely wears makeup, convinced me to buy this. I even went to Sephora and had a free makeover done with this product to see if it was really worth it. I thought it looked fine, initially, in the store, but have been disappointed since. I feel like the color does not match, regardless of how many times I've been told it does match my skin tone. I also find th...read moreat it makes my face look cakey and emphasized the things I wanted to hide. It makes me feel like a little girl putting on her mom's makesup.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

It somewhat covered ...... for only two hours!
This was a royal pain to get a natural finish on my skin when using this. However, my hard work was in vain, because two hours later - it had disappeared/melted off/sweated off - whatever. Never again!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not as amazing as it seems.
This does a ok job as a foundation. I would have to use more of it at a time though. I know its supposed to look natural, but it was TOO natural. It looked like I did not put anything on. So I would use more of it and it would run out too quickly. It just being okay, I don't really think its worth the money.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Almost as Good as Advertised
This is the best foundation I have tried. I've had fewer blemishes while using this product than I used to have with other foundations. I also like that I can finally match my very light skin color (I just use the fair shade, but you can blend different shades to make one that matches your skin type closely). It blends pretty well and stays on pretty well all day, even with my oily skin, unless I'...read morem sweating a lot! I also like that I can control how much coverage I get (light to heavy) and it does pretty well for covering up my facial redness. One small downside is that it takes a lot longer than they advertise on the commercials for me to apply it since I want a heavy coverage. Also, it needs to be blended very well to look more natural. I also sometimes use a liquid concealer for more noticeable blemishes. But I like that this product is more natural than many of its counterparts, and I can't imagine using a different foundation. It may seem a bit pricey for a small amount, but it does last a long time, even when I use a lot of it for my heavy coverage. I would highly recommend it!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not for people with oily skin, large pores and fine lines around eyes
I bought into the mineral make up hype last year and decided to try this line of make up. I think it was the worst make up mistake I've ever made. It doesn't cover anything even with 7 applications with a kabuki brush. All it does is settle into my pores and fine lines making me look 10 years older than I am. At first I thought it was just my application technique like many others until I star...read moreted doing my research. I realized I'm not the only one with this problem. Back to "regular" foundations for me.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful
