decent job
I have used this in the past and enjoyed. However, this time, I found it to not sit right on my skin. Even though I used their primer, like I did in the past, it just was not good for me. It is a light to medium coverage that you can build up slightly.
Horrible cystic acne!
I was very enthusiastic trying Bare Minerals Foundation Powder. The application and finish was great. I was unaware of the Bismuth Oxychloride causing cystic acne. I am in my 40s and never had anything more than a few pimples here and there. I do not have sensitive skin. This product destroyed my skin and still has not recovered. If you do not have a reaction to bismuth, the product was fine.
Light coverage
I used to use another brand of mineral foundation, but it was discontinued so I switched to this and have been using it for several years now. It's a very light coverage and is gentle on my sensitive skin, though when I have dry patches it doesn't cover as smoothly. I use it in combination with their concealer . I prefer a natural look and this helps to absorb some oil but maintain the natural look.
Minimal coverage at best
This foundation was very drying on my skin, it clung to every dry patch and exaggerated them. I ended up looking messy and very powdery. There is almost no coverage, and only 4 shade ranges. If you have oily skin maybe this would work for you. It did work as a bronzer though!
This is the only make up I use. It's so easy to apply and looks perfectly natural. Never clumps or sits in lines in your face. I love that it is light and comes off easily without using a make up remover, and you can leave it on without causing breakouts. It will just wear off naturally. Covers well for such a light product and blends easily with other tones to match your skin perfectly. It's a nice level of sun protection. I don't burn, but I'm not left with a pasty white face that is off balance with the rest of me either. It's a fantastic product! Love love love it!
I use it as a under eye concealer to hide dark cercels it works great to also hide acne and redness i love it makes me look awake and not tierd its smooth and easy to apply price is a bitte high but its worth it
That feeling when you finally find the perfect foundation!! priceless! this stuff blends beautifully, and is super light weight feeling on the skin. has a bit of spf to protect from the sun and won't get cakey feeling by the end of the day! this is definitely my go to make up product every single day.
Oh this foundation is my holy grail! It is so beautiful and buildale. The key to this is to add a little bit at a time and really buff it in. Layers..the key is layers..you are going to think you are piling it on but you aren't. Really buff it in because it then mixes with the temperature of your face and the oils and turns into a liquid like formul. It looks like skin!
This stuff is expensive for a little container let's get that straight. But it is MIRACULOUS. it seriously works miracles on my face and a little goes a long way. I can wear just this and a little concealer and my face will look flawless. Amazing.
While this powder is on the more expensive side, I have tried a million different ones and it's totally worth it. The colour matches my skin, the coverage is amazing & it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. I have been buying for years and will never switch after wasting so much money on other products.
