Quick Take: buildable coverage, natural finish
I LOVE my BE. I can wear it sheer or heavy depending on the day and it never looks fake. Just make sure to wash your brush! Otherwise the makeup gets too powdery looking. I have very sensitive skin and BE never irritates me. I got my friends hooked on it too. If you use it right, it's fool proof and gorgeous!
I can not describe the epicness that is bareMinerals foundation. I decided to use this product after watching countless infomercials in the wee hours of the night. Loved the results I was seeing and decided to buy it for myself. Ever since I bought my first container this summer, I've refilled 3 times. For a powder foundation it does its job. It does not leave my nose pancake like, like other powder foundations, my sklin glows all the time and I just look fabulous. This is an amazing product and the perk is, it doesnt even cost that much. I've spent up to $50 on powder foundations that can not even compare to bareMinerals. BareMinerals is amazing and I will never stop using it.

Still Amazing- 11.21.09
Quick Take: non-drying, buildable coverage, natural finish, makes your skin glow
I'm still loving bareMinerals foundation. It makes my face look flawless without the heavy makeup feel. I even wear it a bit heavier for stage makeup. I'm a fan!
The service was great at this sephora they were really friendly and helpful.

Great before Bronzing- 11.21.09
Quick Take: natural finish
This foundation is a great coverup especially under the eyes and for blemish spots. I used it before I apply bronzer for an extra boost or just alone to achieve an even tone. A must have for anyone.

I just can't understand the hype- 11.21.09
Quick Take: non-drying
I wanted to love this product because all my friends swear by it. It smelled nice and didn't irritate my skin but it didn't cover any blemishes or redness or evened out my skin tone. I ended up returning it.
I use this foundation long time. Love it. It looks so natural. You cannot tell it is on. Any color you choose according to your skin color is perfect. It is great product.
I almost forgot how great this powder is...I tried Laura Mercier's pearl infused powder, but my skin began to break out. I stuck with it in the hopes that my skin would adjust. It never did. Finally I threw the Mercier powder away and went back to this wonderful powder...my skin has looked amazing ever since- it looks clear and healthy! The coverage can be light or heavy, depending on how much you want to layer it, and it looks seamless when you top it off with a light setting spritz of water or toner. I have freckles, so I really like the versatility of the powder's coverage.

AWFUL!!!- 11.20.09
I expected so much more for all of the hype! My first thought when I put it on was, "Hey, good coverage." Upon closer inspection I noticed that it settled into and emphasized every fine line on my face, making my 27 yr old skin look awful. Furthermore, it wears like some cheap junk you would buy at the discount store: it migrates, looks oily, fake, etc. If you are looking for a good product, go with Cover FX powder foundation. That stuff has just as good coverage and wears awesomely.

Needs Primer- 11.20.09
Quick Take: buildable coverage, natural finish
This foundation looks incredibly natural on my skin. I don't think I could ever go back to liquid make up. I gave it four stars because you can't really get the most out of this without using primer.

Quick Take: non-drying, natural finish, buildable coverage with out looking caked on
hides imperfections without hiding your true beauty. My dad has always told me he didnt like how much make-up i wore becuase it hides my freckles and angel kisses (beatuymarks) So i went to Sephora and asked for something that would cover flaws but let the REAL ME shine through. I tried Bare Minerals and what a difference it made, people tell me what wonderful skin I have, but behind the Bare Minerals I look like any other 20 year old girl trying to face the world.

MUST TRY TO BELIEVE- 11.20.09
Quick Take: non-drying, natural finish
Ok so I got a samlple of this for free with an order awhile back... I never tried it because I was happy with my makeup...and though a powder that can actually cover everything NO WAY...but although its not a heavy coverage it does very much smooth out coloration and cover small thing up.. I am going to be buying more just to use on quick days I dont have time for much!

Bare Escentuals Foundation- 11.20.09
I LOVE this product. I have been using it for about 6 years. It is amazing, and I cannot even imagine wearing make-up that felt heavy and gross. Buy it, you will not be unsatisfied.
