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.

Been using this foundation 10+ yrs. Have normal to dry skin and this always looks natural and never dry. I always receive compliments on how nice my complexion looks.

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.
I love this make up! Best product I have ever used. My skin is so healthy! I am buying my Mom the starter kit for Christmas this year. I have been using the make up for 4 yrs. Love It!!!!!!!!!
This is my third purchase of this product. I love it so much that I could just be natural looking within 3 min. I also love this color, Golden Medium since I have a yellow undertone skin. I'll keep purchasing this again.

This is great foundation. I no longer get breakouts. It covers exactly the way I like my makeup to. It looks natural, evens out my skin tone and covers where I need it too without lines.

Ole Faithful- 11.19.09
Quick Take: natural finish
I use to apply this all over as as foundation but found that it made me break out sporadically. So now I use it as an eye concealer (because it has SPF15) and I love it! It has just the right amount of color to counter the yellowness of my cream concealer.

Quick Take: non-drying, buildable coverage
I've used bareMinerals for two years. Took a little getting used to, but now I love it. Great coverage and doesn't look heavy. Like any other makeup, be sure to get a shade that matches your natural skin tone.
I thought I was a light, but am also a yellow undertone and I find the Golden Medium fits me very well. I recommend others try it, if you have the same skin tones. Light made a a little washed out. Of course, who can say enough about Bare Essentials!!!!
