Made me breakout - 11.21.09
Quick Take: rich

Was really nice the first night I used it. But, the morning after the second night I had broken out along my jawline and my forehead. I stopped using and it cleared up. Thinking it was just me, I gave it to my mom to see if she would like it. She started using it, really liked it, and then a few days in started breaking out as well. We are throwing this away and never purchasing again. Very disappointing and a waste of money.

Dried my skin. Perhaps it was the combination of the new matte bare essentials powder and this cream.

I've been using this moisturizer for about 3 months now and my skin has improved ans feels so much smoother and softer than ever. I have oily skin and this stuff goes on silky smooth and does not feel oily.

Nourishing moisturizer - 11.18.09
Love,love the Rare Mineral moisturizer. It is very light, smooth and very hydrating. Also has a very light pleasant scent, not perfume like at all. I have been using a different very expensive brand,however, will now be using only Rare Minerals moisturizer.

I'm on the fence... - 11.16.09
Quick Take: absorbs quickly, lightweight

I bought this moisturizer because if it's made by Bare Escentuals, I'll try it. It's a decent moisturizer, but I think the price is a little steep. It absorbed quickly and isn't greasy. It feels really light., but I'm not sure if it really feels hydrating. I'm still trying to decide if I like the scent... it's not bad, but something about it throws me off.

Nice, but not enough for dry skin - 11.16.09
Quick Take: absorbs quickly, lightweight

This is a nice, unscented moisturizer that feels good going on and absorbs well. However, my skins tends to be drier, and I find that after using this, I see tell tale dry spots/flakes by mid-day. So, I wouldn't recommend this if your skin is dry.

Quick Take: absorbs quickly, lightweight

I've only used this for about 2 weeks, but love the light, creamy feel. It absorbs immediately and isn't sticky at all. Smells good without being perfumy.

Can't get enough of this stuff! - 11.15.09
Quick Take: absorbs quickly, lightweight, intensive

This was my second bottle of this BE moisturizer. It is FANTASTIC for my oily, sensitive, and break-out prone skin. The fact that it is all natural and free from all that "junk" that alot of other top brands use will keep me comin back for more! GREAT product!

A little oily - 11.12.09
Quick Take: lightweight, does not clog pores

This is not a heavy moisturizer, but for me it is a little greasy. When I apply my bare minerals foundation (in the new matte finish), my applicator brush feels like it's meeting resistance, catching on the moisturizer.

This is my second bottle. It is a nice moisturizer but in the winter I wish it was a little thicker. My skin is a little drier in the winter.

Fabulous - 11.11.09
Quick Take: absorbs quickly, lightweight

I use only BE makeup, i have oily/combination skin and began using the moisturizer. i couldn't believe after 2wks how my skin felt, softer, bright and not oily at all. This product is great for all skin types and doesn't leave a greasy residue on your skin.

Mixed review - 11.11.09
Quick Take: absorbs quickly, lightweight

I used RareMinerals moisturizer and my skin felt soft, firmer, and brighter. However, I did break out with blemishes, but I do have sensitive skin, so I can't be sure. I did like the feel of my skin, but there maybe an ingredient in it my skin does not like. My skin has been acting funny lately, so I will try it again in the future when my skin problem resolves. I recommed others to try it though!

I adore this moisturizer. It sinks in and does lay on top of the skin and doesn't give you any greasy feeling.

Coming Soon! - 11.11.09
Quick Take: absorbs quickly, lightweight, perfect amount of moisturization., adds luminosity without shine.

I know it's too early for this review, but I had a chance to try the new Rare Minerals eye cream that will be available soon, and all I can say is WOW!!! I'm 57, and the minute I put it on, the whole eye area became luminous and smooth. It soaks in right away so you can put your minerals on. Later in the day I noticed my eye area was still smooth, and felt like velvet! It is worth waiting for!
