Would be perfect if didn't produce so much shine
Well, a year or so ago I broke down and bought the starter kit of this after all those infomercials and rave magazine reviews lured me in. I love it! It completely ruined me for liquid foundation. I have redness, dark circles, dryness, etc. that even the heaviest liquid foundations could never completely cover up. But BareMinerals did the trick flawlessly. I used to use stick concealer under ...read moremy eyes-no more! BareMinerals worked for that, too. So no more reverse raccoon eyes, either! And it feels so much better than liquid foundation, because your skin can actually breathe. I noticed that the clarity and overall health of my skin improved after using this for a few weeks. I used to always get mascara smudges under my eyes throughout the day because I had to smear so much icky concealer under them. No more with mineral foundation! My only complaint about BareMinerals (other than the price is a bit much) is that it makes my face look really shiny at times, which I don't like because it brings out textural flaws. So I would have to put other powder on top of it at times to get rid of the shine. I'm currently using Physician's Formula mineral foundation, and I think I like it better. It has all the same benefits, but it's not shiny.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Learning Curve
Once the learning of how much to apply is mastered, this product is great. There is no feeling of a mask on the face but coverage is not as great as the "old fashioned" products so I wouldn't suggest it for those with serious skin discoloration or other flaws that need to be masked. It's got SPF 15 which makes it even better. I'm addicted to all BE products.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Great Foundation.
I love this foundation!! It's coverage is great, it does not look or "fake" or heavy. it gives a very natural look but just alot better than natural. What's even better is that it's great for your skin! Does not make me break out and with a spf of 15 it protects my skin from sun damage!! Again I love this foundation!!!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Only foundation for me.
As I've said before I'm really not a huge makeup person. Thanks to BE I've rediscovered the joys of playing with makeup again. Once you've practiced with this it really is a great product. I get the coverage I need (make sure to apply moisturizer if you tend be a bit on the dry side) without looking madeup. The value is great because you use so little. I've had my one jar for almost 9 months now...read more and have not put a dent in it. I like the fact that it has a built in SPF 15, which saves me a step. I've blended a couple of colors to match my complexion perfectly. I am a devotee of this. I won't even try a similar version of it.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Fantastic
I don't know how I ever wore liquid makeup before this. It feels like you don't have anything on your face. I can never wear liquid again.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Okay!!
watching the commercials on tv i decided to try it.. i did like the foundation it looked natural and nice and does last a long time, but i didn't like the fact that it took too much room if i wanted to take it in my purse i had to take the foundation, the brush and the mineral veil.. it was way too much to carry around and on top of that if i wanted a quick touch up it would take for ever opening the can getting the brush and no mirror.. that was the main reason i didn't like it...This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I LOVE IT
I love this. My pores are not clogged like with powder with talc. I will never use anything else. It is almost fail-proof because it is so simple.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

not for everyone after all
As a makeup artist & consultant at a cosmetics chain, I often have to explain to women with darker skin tones ("women of colour") that the colours get harder and harder to match accurately. I don't see BE doing much to advise us or remedy that kind of problem. Also - I am RETRACTING my review that called BM foundation a reliable part of my own makeup routine - it started rubbing of...read moref on clothes and looking shiny. And I got absolutely fed up of cleaning my bathroom sink every day - more than once if I was going out at night. Use that $25 elsewhere, ladies.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
