Description

Not only do you get flawless coverage, but you get peace of mind since there are no irritating preservatives, fillers, or binders. It’s makeup so pure you can sleep in it. Even though it looks like a powder, our foundation buffs on like a cream for silky coverage. You control whether you have light or full coverage, or anything in between. Our 100% pure bareMinerals are safe for even the most sensitive skin—even if you have rosacea. They soften fine lines and wrinkles, so all you see is a soft, flawless finish. Another healthy benefit of bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation is right in the name: our natural broad-spectrum UVA/UVB SPF 15 protection.

    I love this foundation. It is a wonderful light powder that goes on smooth and covers very well. It's all natural and if you accidently forget to wash is off at night it does not break your face out. I have lupus and it causes little sores on my face at times and this foundation actually speeds up the healing of these sores. I will never use another liquid foundation again.....or another brand for that matter. Bare Esentuals rule.

    I bought this after I went to Vegas with a girlfirend and forgot my foundation. She brought this with her and in all of my pics, I glow, I look flawless and I look natural! She swore by it and so I got home and blew the 75 bucks on the starter kit. It inluded the base primer, the mineral veil, 2 shades of medium and the bronzer. Plus a small concealer brush, a medium and large brush and an instructional DVD. The price at first seems steep, but once you use it and see the results, well, I haven't given the price a second thought. I have oily, acne proned skin that has never been perfect. Every makeup I've used previously clogs my pores or makes me feel like I'm wearing a mask. I was pretty skeptical at first, applying layer after layer, the drying factor (being a powder), or the cake factor (because of the oil). I was sure this was a lot of hype. It feels like you're wearing nothing and looks so natural. I love this stuff!

    I love this make up, it really does feel light and doesn't make your face look oily. I have tried other mineral make up before but they made my face break out. i have also been a long time user of mac make up but i had to give it up because it felt like chalk on my skin and it started to make my skin look oily by the end of the day. the good thing about mac make up is it didn't make my face break out thats why i used it for awhile until i tried bare minerals. the kit is not very expensive, its worth every penny. if you are a first time user, you might find it frustrating applicating it because of the different brushes and different powder you need but once you get used to it, it obviously doesn't take that long. the end results is worth every minute of your time!!

    I LOVE BARE MINERALS! I have pretty light skin but tan very quickly once out in the sun. I have been using it for almost two years and haven't even thought about buying any other type of foundation. I can use it when I am pale in the winter and even in the summer when my skin gets a little darker. I use the same color and it gives me a fresh look. I never feel like I am wearing makeup and I don't have to worry about breaking out in the morning if I "forget" to wash my makeup off at night. I was skeptical about buying it because it is kind of pricey but the amount of uses and satisfaction you get, will definitely make it worth the splurge.

    Also if you use another bronzer on top, it doesn't look so cakey and you don't get that heavy feeling.

    I really am a huge fan of Bare Minerals and if you can afford it and are one of those people who wants to advertise that she uses a brand name like Bare Minerals - I say go for it. It's clearly of the highest quality and works like a charm to cover as a foundation. I found it to be long wearing, and the colors are perfect for my fair skin.

    However - I've tried lots of mineral makeups that are on the market and there are several options that are just as effective and less expensive. Bottom line - it IS a great product and I highly recommend it. But - if you want a good mineral makeup and a low price, this is not your brand.

    I love this makeup! My DH took me to a Sephora store to get a makeover. They used the Bare Escentuals and I fell in love with it.
    The makeup leaves my face feeling light and airy. It compliments and doesn't overpower my skin tone.
    It goes on smooth and doesn't require a lot to do the job.
    The best part is that my fingers don't get messy like they did with liquid makeup.
    It is a tad pricey but worth every penny.

    This is by far the best foundation I have ever used. I felt it was a little expensive so I tried one by Loreal. It doesn't compare AT ALL! Stick to this one, you won't regret it.
