Clear Skin
I honestly love Bare Escentuals for a few reasons. I used to wear nothing but department store brands & it gave amazing coverage but I realized my skin was taking a beating from. I saw a commercial for this about 3 years ago, started using it and at first had problems because I was so used to having my makeup caked on. After a week or so I got used to the natural look of Bare Escentuals and fe...read morell in love, not only did it look like my skin was naturally glowing, but my skin actually began to clear up.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

My favorite
I have been using bare mineral foundation for two years now. LOVE IT!! It provides excellent coverage and really is less heavyt than most foundations, even other comparable mineral foundations. It says you can sleep in it, but I don't recommend sleeping in any makeup. It does rub off a little with understandable activites (i.e. working out, laying your head on a pillow). I still love it alot.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

The Best!
I recently began using this to even out slight facial blotches and it's GREAT! I was apprehensive because I don't usually wear any makeup at all but this was so light and natural-looking that I'm going to continue using it!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

This product ROCKS !!
I have had wonderful success with Bare Minerals. My skin is both oily and sensitive. I get full coverage easily with the added bonus of a sun-screen! I prefer a natural look and get that with the Bare Mineral line. Total make-up time is about 5 min. (minus mascara--I'm slow with that.)I do use the Primer and feel that this helps for a more even coverage. The cost is reasonable compared like p...read moreroducts. The products work and last! I only replace the foundation and Mineral Veil and add other products when I want a change in color. You use so little of the product. I was not a brush lover and am now converted. So easy to use!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Great product!
I am very happy with this product. I've tried other mineral powders before, including physicians formula, and I always found them difficult to use. I frequently have a hard time controlling the amount of coverage and drug store brands often come with cheap brushes that don't help things at all. This one is by far the best I've tried. It gives a nice, light coverage that looks very natural -- j...read moreust what I'm looking for! The drawbacks are the same as with any powder foundation: mainly, that they tend to make a mess as the powder goes everywhere (although this one much less so than the others I've tried), and take longer than liquid or creme foundations to put on (you have to go over your face more than once if you want more coverage). I personally like the fact that you can put this one on very lightly as I don't like the look of heavy make-up, but those who feel they need a lot of coverage may find this product inadequate, or be frustrated by how many times they have to brush over their face to achieve that coverage level. Overall, I am extremely happy with this product and I get complements on my make up all the time -- something that's never happened to me before!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Must have
I used this for over 5 years. I'm 43 and could not live with out it. Its worth every pennie! If you have large pores then use her primer or any proudaton primer and see how wonderful it is. And if you have lines a primer before foundation is a must.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

I love this stuff!
I've been wanting to try this for a long time and was skeptical that it was one of those overrated products. You know those infomercials. My sister gave me this as a gift and I'm a convert. I suffer from mild rosacea and dark acne scars. bareMinerals Foundation offered me the coverage I needed without the heavy feeling and has not made me break out. I feel confident enough to fall asleep with it on at night, too. It has a slight shimmer to it to give you that nice "glow"This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

don't like this product
It's hyped that it makes your skin so awesome, but it caked on my face and showed all the dry spots.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Good but not the best coverage
I love this for keeping my complexion clear, you really can sleep in it. I don't love this because after awhile it does tend to stick to all the little hairs on your face and make you look really powdery. Also, around my eyes, I tend to see the product settle and look crepey.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Not enough coverage for me.
I saw it on tv and was excited to try it. I have large pores and acne scars and I am 50. I do not really like it. No matter how much coverage I use, it doesn't really cover well. I followed directions.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
