I am literally crying right now because this is so good!!! NEVER GOING BACK TO LIQUID!!!
Recommended for students that have to go to school in the morning, or people who have to go to work!! REAL flawless coverage if you want to build up!!
"she says that u do't need omre than what's in the lid and then she goes and dumps some more in it"
She means you don't need much on your brush- if you put too much on your brush at one time, you can't blend the makeup in, and you look blochy. Of course, depending on your skin tone or whether you get a tan you may need more or less makeup.
I actually have this and it does work for about a 1/2 hour on me anyways. I have very oily skin and as much as I like using less foundation I also like to know it's on:) I don't recommend this for anyone with oily skin such as myself. Also, the brush always seems to leave a few bristles? on my face, almost like hair! I hate that.
@Doreen075 If you have oily skin, you should use their Matte foundation instead of the original, that's what its for. & I don't recommend the Bare Minerals brush; invest in a good Mac face powder brush or a Sigma brush. The quality is almost as good as Mac, but way cheaper.
I heard alot of reviews that dont buy matte if u have dry skin but does this brand "original" foundation helps your dry flaky skin which i know it does for redness? I know should always moisturized first which i do but does it help fix/smooth dry skin like it claims for acne/redness medical problems? Thanx :)
I was very sceptical myself, as I have a lot of acne scars. I cannot believe how beautiful this make-up is, and how well is covers. Such a small amount is needed to cover even the most troubled complexion. I found that the dvd that came with the kit needs to be updated, however. There should be woman participating with more of a skin tone range, and a larger age range. This make-up is so worth the money.
This is the best foundation! I tried it yesterday. I thought this commercial was lying but it actually works...I didn't use as much as she's using on her face.
@ayooxgina if you see this video in high quality, or you have the cd you revieve when you buy the starter kit you can actually see the un-eveness in her skin, she does not have acne brake outs, but her skin is discolored. I have acne, and a LOT of un-even skin tones, red marks ect. and it covers on my skin beautifully.
@ayooxgina you don't need much to fill up the brush, you don't want a lot in the brush, there's nothing wrong with putting more makeup into the lid to fill the brush again.
@hamster209 about 25 for the foundation. I have tried every mineral foundation out there, looking for one just as good but cheaper...try Revlon colorstay mineral foundation. About $12 to $15 and better than BE
love Bare Minerals i went to Bare Essentials yesterday and when i got a shade test the effect was amazing i have acne spots and it covered most of them with light coverage from the foundation.
First of all, we do NOT care how much you make a year. We dont know you and we dont care about you. Second, we dont care how many kits you have left to open. If you're that well off, we are happy for you. Dont need to tell the whole world!
Try this website or some Macy's have this product....it is made by the same company as Bare Essentials. You will love the price, too and it is not necessary to have the products delivered to you automatically every month and charging it to you.
i been using it for this year i still have some left from the started kit and i use every day i really love it i have eye liner eyeshadow, and lip gloss the store is great too it really works great and it last along time too .
I think that if you need good coverage bare minerals doesn't do a very good job at covering anything but perfect skin. I also have friends that use bare minerals and their blemishes aren't concealed. I have problem skin and sheer cover had much better coverage for me. I think that the type of skin you have really effects the results you get with these two types of mineral make-up
i like bar minerals...but i'm adicted. i wear waaaay too much to cover up acne scars and stuff and it just looks like a mask on ym face. i'm sure it works perfect for people with minor imperfections though
@jaigurudevaummm really? I use the concealer brush all over my face, but it still looks natural because the oils in my skin melt the foundation onto my face and it looks natural still, but that's just for me.
I love Bare Minerals. I used to have really bad acne, but ever since i started using bare minerals a ton of it has cleared up! I think all the chemicals from my old foundation was killing my skin and causing a lot of the break outs. I love how this makes me look. It's a great product. Though i don't think "just a little bit" does it for most people, including myself. !
i love bare minerals. i used to use liquid foundation, but this feels so natural on my skin. The reason why the woman in the video, Leslie, the CEO of this company, does it again and again is because she wanted more coverage. it's like layering. some people need more coverage and some need less depending on the condition of their skin.
Per application..... so you wouldnt dump a lot on and start applying, just a little, apply, then repeat...if u put too much all at once you are not going to get EVEN coverage.
this stuff is amazinggg. i have it on rite now for the first time & im more than happy with the outcome; what gets me mad is the lady on the video ! your supposed to apply in circular motions. its BUFF not SWIPE on !
I have moderate acne because of the old liquid foundation I used. But now I just started using BareMinerals today and you can see my pimples. How long do I have to use it to have the acne getting better and to show less?
Yes it will you just will need to put like 3 layer rather then just 1 or 2. This woman here dosen't even know how to put it on. You dont need it on your eyes and ur suppose to use circular motions....
I'm so glad that Bare Minerals has come to the UK. I couldn't find it anywhere apart from online but now it's come to a store near me. I have alot of red acne marks on my skin from a previous bout of severe acne that I had, and this stuff is fantastic at covering it up. And it is non-comeodogenic too so it won't give me more acne woohooooo!!!
I want to be a Bare Minerals shop assistant!!! Love love love it!!!
I loooovvveee this stuff. I have really fair skin, and tried everything!! from drugstore foundation to high end brands. I tried this 3 years ago and I never turned back. Not only does it melt onto my skin and cover reddness without any signs of makeup....but it has greatly improved my skin tone, and my pores have shrank. Its well worth the money....you use so little, but get great coverage. I still have the same one from a year ago.
omg i looooooooooooove this stufffff. it's like acne clenser meets makeup. it's good for oyur skin and you get that good coverage. it's worth the money.
i have scars and an uneven skin tone. it hides EVERYTHING!!!
Bare Minerals is not exactly "healthy" makeup. It has a filler called Bismuth Oxychloride; which irritated many peoples' skin; including mine. I've also read that even if Bismuth doesn't effect some people's skin, it can still be harmful as they get older.
i see absolutely no different in this video. she looks exactly the same at the end as she did in the beginning. not worth sixty bucks if ya ask me... but i dont have it so i guess i wouldnt no
I think it looks not much different because the model already has really good skin anyways! If they done a model with acne and stuff, hopefully it would look different but natural! :)
this is quite tricky to apply when you first get it but it does look really natural (i have v.v.v.oily acne prone skin so its hard for me to look like im not wearing a mask)
only thing is the sifter annoys the living hell out of me, i took mine out..
yep... i get brown spots on my face from old blemishes, and the bare minerals cover it up... actually, i use the blemish treatment and it actually takes away not only present blemishes, but old scars from old OLD blemishes... it's AMAZING
African American 51 year old have been using for 5 years. It is the BEST makeup I've ever used. I get compliments *all* the time on my skin -- not my makeup. Go to Sephora and you can play with the foundation colors to find the right mix. They've added more shades for women of color. Try it. Also go to QVC to order once you figure out what you need.
This is the number one seller at Sephora. I bought it for the first time today. I have heard that too it works better on lighter skin tones than darker. However they are trying to come out with more shades.
i need to get this stuff! i don't think i can match my skin color very well though. is there a way to get someone experienced to match it for me? or is there only one shade?
I've used all different kinds of make-up, but this is really something else. I recommend EVERYONE to try this product. I've had "problem skin" since I was 13 and started using make-up. But since I started using I.D bare minerals my skin got clearer and free from pimples and it feels so good/fresh to have it on your face. I.d bare minerals foundation is so pure you can actually sleep in it(I dont though). It really covers blemishes, scars and prevents pimples..
I used Proactiv for years, and it improved my acne, to an extent. We, who suffer from acne, will probably suffer with acne for the majority of our lives, regardless of treatment. There is no cure for acne, yet.
I developed a more serious skin condition, and my doctor wrote me a prescription for 1% clindamyacin gel that when applied as a thin layer onto clean skin daily, is the best thing I have used so far. It's an antibiotic, just to warn you. It may work for some of you too. Worth a try.
Am I missing something? It's a powder! I've gotten the foundation at a Sephora's with the help of an employee, and all it did was highlight the blackheads on my nose. My cheap tinted moisturizer does a better job. Maybe it's only for oily/acne-prone types.
I tried Bare Minerals and I was not impressed with it. I returned it to the store. I have tried other mineral foundations such as "Philosophy", which I love. Also, I like "PurMinerals", "Jane Iredale" and "Senna Cosmetics", because they offer it in a "compact" form, which is very convenient. I don't care for the loose powder foundations. I have also read that you have to be careful with loose minerals, because the fine powder can be inhaled into the lungs (WebMD).
Well I havent herd anyone having any problems with their lungs with it yet. Oh please Ive been using for years and my lungs are above the normal breathing...
It's hard to pick the right tone from the site. The first time I ordered it it was too dark and orangey. If you have a sephora, get it from there cause they'll help you pick the right shade.
It should be okay. Loads of reviews from ppl suffering from acne said that it was the best thing they've tried foundationwise. If you don't want to invest too much to start with, try the ones in lower price range like L'oreal. It's really worth trying!
And yes, the BISQUE concealer is a must have! I also have the typical Jewish circles under the eyes, and between the foundation and bisque, everything is covered up without EVER looking caked! :)
You also might want to check out RareMinerals. It's a nighttime skin treatment, also a powder, & amazing! It seems expensive at first, but it lasts a long time, and it works better than anything else I've ever tried.... and I've always had a complexion with acne, acne scars, circles under the eyes, large pores, and discoloration. RareMinerals helps this, and BareMinerals makeup actually also does; not only while wearing it, but it actually *can* improve your complexion with regular use!
i had bad acne too when i started using it, but my acne got alot better after switching to it. i mean, yeah my acne showed alot for the first like 2 weeks of using it, but it's worth it b/c then you're not just covering us acne, you're making it better.
I used bare minerals for two years and absolutely LOVED the product. I will never-ever go back to normal make-up again, but after college money got very tight. I agree There are ALOT of copy cats out there and most of them are trash. For those of you who are interested in Mineral Makeup and cant affod BE try Everyday Minerals. In my opinion its just as good if not better for less than half the price.
i love it... i swear 2 god i look like one of those models in magazines with glowing skin. i don't use any blush or mascra. i finish off my make up with victorias secret lip gloss cherry bomb
this make up is good i have acne scars and it covers everything!!

But since I started using I.D bare minerals my skin got clearer and free from pimples and it feels so good/fresh to have it on your face. I.d bare minerals foundation is so pure you can actually sleep in it(I dont though). It really covers blemishes, scars and prevents pimples..

the people who do not like bare minerals are probably just used to the pressed, waxy crap they used before. It takes a while for your skin to adapt

I used Proactiv for years, and it improved my acne, to an extent. We, who suffer from acne, will probably suffer with acne for the majority of our lives, regardless of treatment. There is no cure for acne, yet.
I developed a more serious skin condition, and my doctor wrote me a prescription for 1% clindamyacin gel that when applied as a thin layer onto clean skin daily, is the best thing I have used so far. It's an antibiotic, just to warn you. It may work for some of you too. Worth a try.

Am I missing something? It's a powder! I've gotten the foundation at a Sephora's with the help of an employee, and all it did was highlight the blackheads on my nose. My cheap tinted moisturizer does a better job. Maybe it's only for oily/acne-prone types.

I tried Bare Minerals and I was not impressed with it. I returned it to the store. I have tried other mineral foundations such as "Philosophy", which I love. Also, I like "PurMinerals", "Jane Iredale" and "Senna Cosmetics", because they offer it in a "compact" form, which is very convenient. I don't care for the loose powder foundations. I have also read that you have to be careful with loose minerals, because the fine powder can be inhaled into the lungs (WebMD).

It's hard to pick the right tone from the site. The first time I ordered it it was too dark and orangey. If you have a sephora, get it from there cause they'll help you pick the right shade.

I tried Proactiv and it made my acne worse. :(

thats because it surfaces the pimples, in order to eliminate them....you have to keep using it. :P

I've heard of this stuff but I'm not sure whether to buy it or not because I still have acne. I don't want to make it worse.

It should be okay. Loads of reviews from ppl suffering from acne said that it was the best thing they've tried foundationwise. If you don't want to invest too much to start with, try the ones in lower price range like L'oreal. It's really worth trying!

And yes, the BISQUE concealer is a must have! I also have the typical Jewish circles under the eyes, and between the foundation and bisque, everything is covered up without EVER looking caked! :)

You also might want to check out RareMinerals. It's a nighttime skin treatment, also a powder, & amazing! It seems expensive at first, but it lasts a long time, and it works better than anything else I've ever tried.... and I've always had a complexion with acne, acne scars, circles under the eyes, large pores, and discoloration. RareMinerals helps this, and BareMinerals makeup actually also does; not only while wearing it, but it actually *can* improve your complexion with regular use!

I got a "thumbs down" for recommending RareMinerals, which is a product made by Bare Escentuals? I wasn't promoting another company. SHEESH! lol

i had bad acne too when i started using it, but my acne got alot better after switching to it. i mean, yeah my acne showed alot for the first like 2 weeks of using it, but it's worth it b/c then you're not just covering us acne, you're making it better.

Yes. There's foundation for people of color and even people with darker skin tones.

I used bare minerals for two years and absolutely LOVED the product. I will never-ever go back to normal make-up again, but after college money got very tight. I agree There are ALOT of copy cats out there and most of them are trash. For those of you who are interested in Mineral Makeup and cant affod BE try Everyday Minerals. In my opinion its just as good if not better for less than half the price.
