I purchased the whole package, face wash and everything. Let me just say this make up was off my face after a few hours. Didnt give me hardly any coverage! So the face wash wasn't necessary. The mascara didnt lengthen my lashes half the time I didnt look Iike I was wearing makeup. still had color variations in my skin you could see the blemishes & pores and, it was over priced! Definately not like the infomercial! It made me appear pale. Might work for someone else but definately not me!.

I have tried many brands of Make up, this is the best ever, I get so many compliments about my make up. I do not feel like I have a mask on and it looks SO NATURAL...... Great coverage and NO BREAKOUTS>>>>>A MUST HAVE!!!!

I started using this make up in June of 08 and i love it! i used to use liquid make up but it made my face oily, this is a defendant improvement on my skin! it makes the redness on your face decrease and it makes your skin feel fabulous! Try it, it's great! It costs about 25 dollars and lasted me 6 months!

It took me a little while to "get this" make up. It actually took me several months! This is the second mineral brand make up I have ever tried.

I must admit that the first time I tried it I didn't like it so much. After taking a few pictures, I could see what everyone was saying... the shine on my face was ridiculous! I vowed to give it a second try. That turned into a third one.. then fourth...

Finally I got it. The trick is to apply Mineral Veil before the actual foundation itself. THEN dust on the foundation.

I love this because it really feels like you're not wearing any make up at all -- no heavyness or itchiness. I have oily/combination skin and it works really well in keeping the oil at bay on my t-zone and forehead. I layer the foundation with the multi-tasking face colour and the result is I get a nice glow.

I really like how the foundation can be "built" to the coverage you want. If I need more coverage, I buff more of the foundation on my face. If I want a more natural look.. I stick to just a tiny application -- one light buff over the entire face.

I recommend B.E. to those who have: sensitive skin (who do not have sensitivities to bismuth oxychloride), oily/acne prone skin, rosacea, who are afraid of liquid foundation and want something natural, or those who have gone through surgical skin treatments and want to try mineral make up (like microdermabrasions or peels).

My only issue is... whenever I where this, (because I cannot feel it on my face) I often forget that I'm wearing make up and then end up washing my face really, really late at night! They say it's make up so natural you can sleep in, but I never do that -- not even with mineral make up.

If you go to Sephora the ladies will help you to find a shade that's right for you. They also can give you samples so you can take it home and try it out.

The price is expensive but it will last you a long time. I think it's pretty worth it.

I have been using Bare Escentuals on and off for well over a year. Some friends have great success and it makes their skin look amazing. I really love the glow it gives my skin. I have rosacea and breakout in little bumps after a few days of use. At first it also looks great on me but then I break out. I keep going back to it because it is recommended for those of us with rosacea. After some research I have finally found why this product does not work for me. It contains bismuth and it turns out that many of those with rosacea are sensitive or allergic to bismuth. The products including the Foundation Powder contain the pearlescent ingredient bismuth oxychloride as a hydrating agent, this is the problem.

My son's girlfriend uses this and it is beautiful on her. I am 50 years old and this product did not work well on me. It didn't cover the dark circles under my eyes and the acne scars on my face. This is apparently better for younger people.

The foundation provides impeccable coverage for every skin type and skin tone, and also protects with a natural SPF 15 broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. this is a great product!!!

Wonderful. I have been using this for a few years, and it has improved both the look and overall health of my skin.

When buying this product I recommend buying the set because you get more for your money that way. This foundation is all natural and does not clog the pores, I us it and it makes my redness on my cheeks, nose, and chin disappear. It gives a even complexion unlike liquid foundation wear you have to add to your neck so it does to look like you are two toned. This foundation you do not have to do it, just apply to your face and your are done. You an even you this also as a councilor s well.

Not really a fan. I feel like there is no coverage. I've given it a fair chance and I just don't like it. My face just does not hold on the powder. It looks like I have no makeup on even after I have applied like 3 coats. Definately will stick to the liquid foundation for full coverage. However the bronzer from bare essentials is amazing.
