 Leaves Your Skin feeling & looking better than ever! August 1, 2008
This mineral 'foundation' is an incredible product for coverage. It is ultra light, yet covers well. In a few hours after wearing it my skins feels a bit more supple which is wonderful for a makeup! I was very skeptical at first, but LOVE it now~
The product is worth trying and you won't let anyone convince you differently on your foundation for life!

Sheerest makeup on the market! July 31, 2008
This is the only foundation I have found that goes on easily, stays on all day, and doesn't have a "madeup" look.
 Just OK, but I found something better July 31, 2008

I have been using Bare Minerals in Fairly Light for three years, and while it is better overall than any liquid foundation on the market for sensitive skin, it's not great. This powder highlights the dry areas of my skin and does not hold up well against midday shine on my T-zone. Also, I think I may be slightly allergic/sensitive to mica, because my face feels a little itchy right after applying. I've only continued using it because I have been unable to find something better.
Until now, that is. Meow Cosmetics is a small internet-based brand, they have 3 coverage formulations and over 80 shade choices, and you get three times the amount of product for the same price as Bare Minerals. I find that their formulation is gentler on my skin and offers better coverage, and I will be switching brands as soon as I finish off my last jar of Bare Minerals.
As good as they say! July 28, 2008
I was very skeptical after seeing the infomercials, and I had been foolish enough to try competitor Sheer Cover and gotten burned. Sheer Cover was terrible and really difficult to apply. I have mild to severe acne that has left many spots of hyperpigmentation, as well as the pimples themselves. So, when I was at a mall and came across and actual Bare Escentuals store, I decided, what the heck, I'd give it a try to really see if the infomercial could be believed.
Holy cow! I have never encountered a single product that covered all my flaws so well! I didn't even need to use the concealer! The "artist" in the store showed me how to apply it, then made me do it myself, so I could see just how easy it was. Just the flawless face brush and concealer brush were all I needed. The mineral veil is a godsend. It eliminated the look of my shiny, blackhead-covered nose! It's the best I've ever looked in my life!
I was on a cloud walking around the rest of the day. Everyone was giving me compliments, it was AMAZING how much of a difference it made in not only my appearance, but in my confidence.
Now I have sensitive skin too, so I don't know what all the negative reviews are talking about when they say it irritates your skin...All I know is that the next day, when I put on my regular ol' makeup, I knew there was no contest and I ordered my bare Minerals that day. There was no going back after that! I'll never use anything else!
I will say, go to a BE store, or Sephora or another store that sells it so you can try it yourself first. That's the only way to find the perfect shade for you.
Great Product! July 22, 2008
I have been using this product exclusively since 2003. It goes on very light yet provides good coverage. I have very oily skin and I have not had to reapply, even after a workout. Prior to using mineral foundation, I used Estee Lauder's "Camouflage" foundation and Bare Escentuals coverage is just as good. Liquid foundation tends to settle in around the wrinkles, hence making us appear older.
To the women who used Bare Escentuals and claimed it made them look older - they probably have very dry skin or used a shade that was too light, or applied too much. I have recommended this product to all of my friends and they love it, too. I am completely sold on the mineral foundation! I would never use the liquid type again.
