Good idea, bad execution
I like the whole idea behind bareMinerals, and I have to say it doesn't irritate my sensitive, acne-prone skin. Right when I'm done applying it I love the way I look. My skin tone looks even, and I love putting faux tan over top of it so I look like I just left the beach. The only problem is I'll leave my house and see my reflection an hour later, and instead of looking flawless my skin looks like...read more I'm wearing nothing, and not in a good way. It wears off wayyyy too quick and leaves all my skin flaws uncovered. Maybe good for taking pictures right after application, but a no go for all day wear unless your skin is already flawless and in that case why are you wearing make up?This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Glaring Lines and Flaws Revealed
Feels great on the skin, however it highlights every pore, every line every flaw. Found that no matter how little I used my face look like it was under a microscope for all the world to see. After awhile I even began to itchThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Miracle on a Brush!
I have always been skeptical of the mineral foundations, and doubted they were as good as the marketing ads, commercials, etc... claimed them to be. A friend of mine started using BareMineals about 8 months ago and she talked me into trying it, after hearing me complain of my face breaking out more than usual (usually my face is totally clear). So, I went to a local Makeup Boutique & had them ...read morematch my color, etc... I absolutely LOVE this makeup! It goes on smoothly and evenly, covers any blemishes you may have, and looks fantastic! The quality of this product is outstanding & definitely lived up to its claims! I've been wearing BareMinerals for about 6 months now & I'm just as happy now as I was the 1st day I tried it! It also cleared my face up right away & I have not had a break-out since. In my opinion, the price is very reasonable, as well. Much cheaper than that from large department stores, etc... If you haven't tried it, it is definitely something worth your time & money!! Hope you love it as much as I do!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Bare Minerals Foundation
Loose powder is best used at home after applying foundation. This product with SPF 15 provided a light finishing touch for the smooth skin appearance. Comes in a great color for my type of rosey skin which I try to tone down. A little pricey but lasts a long time.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

great for light coverage
I really like it for a light coverage, which is what I usually want. But if I want heaver coverage I think it starts to look like you are wearing a powder..This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

great job
Devotees of this popular loose powder foundation insist it makes fine lines and acne scars disappear, while just as many naysayers complain it highlights flaws. Our verdict: If you love a powdery, matte finish, look no further -- unless you're dry or highly pigmented. Those skin types seem to get less favorable coverage or staying power. But this product is talc-free and contains honest-to-goodnes...read mores minerals, making it of better quality than its equally priced, less authentic "mineral" competitorsThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not so great
This comes off all over my phone, my hands, everything. It takes quite a bit of time to apply since you have to buff it on, which also causes my skin to feel a bit sore from the brush. It not only sucks all the moisture out of my skin, but it also makes me too shiny, and the dryness really brings out the lines in my face.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Waste of Money
It kind of works but the lose powder (even though it is healthier because it isn't as full of chemicals) gets everywhere and you only end up using about half of the product.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
