Pros: NO FOUNDATION LINE, EVEN COVERAGE, EASY TO USE, KEEPS MY SKIN CLEAR
Cons: NONE
Summary: I was skeptical in the beginning. I mean, I'm not normally a person who purchases things featured in infomercials or on QVC. However the more I watched the more I wanted to give it a try so I ordered my first kit and now, five years later I'm still ... read more

Pros: I can't think of any
Cons: Messy, chalky, silvery finish.
Summary: I was so excited when I first bought this make up! After seeing the infomercials, looking at the before and afters and reading positive reviews about it on the net, I couldn't wait to try it on. I was in for a shock, this make up was horrible for me! I ... read more

Pros: it's creamy and doesn't cause breakouts
Cons: it can be cakey
Summary: Since I reviewed most of the foundations that I came across on my life time, I felt the need to review the Bare Escentuals Bare Minerals as well. But, I was hesitant because what more can I say than cakey, cakey, cakey? I literally thought that I was ... read more

Pros: Coverage, SPF 15, ease of use and a jar lasts a long time
Cons: Hard to travel without being messy
Summary: Bare Minerals...just the sound of this foundation line by Bare Escentuals makes you want to try it. I have been using makeup for the last 10 years. Foundation is one of the things that I used to go from one product to another to find the perfect ... read more

Pros: Feels like nothing, excellent coverage, flawless finish
Cons: Packaging makes it easy to get powder all over the bathroom counter
Summary: This it the first time in my life I've been brand-loyal to a particular brand of make-up. The stuff they say in the ads is true! I've always jumped from one brand of make-up to another -- always looking for something better out there. I never liked ... read more

Pros: keeps skin clear
Cons: color choices are not the best
Summary: Of the hundreds of foundations I've used, I've become loyal to one, Bare Minerals by Bare Escentuals. If you haven't tried this one yet, you're missing out. My view on foundation is that it's created to cover up imperfections, not create them (hello ... read more

Pros: I always wear this foundation
Cons: sometimes messy
Summary: I never before bought so much make up as I have with this line! I was nervous to buy from the infomercial. SO the first time I drove to one of their stores in Chicago. I feel in love. Of course, it is available locally now. I never wore any base ... read more

Pros: Perfect match to my skin color, hides blemishes, feels light on my face.
Cons: None, unless you consider strangers stopping on the street to compliment you a bad thing.
Summary: I tried bare minerals for the first time yesterday. I had initially gone online, but decided to go into the store because I wanted to make sure I was purchasing the correct color. The sales person was extremely helpful and HONEST about what products I ... read more

Pros: Coverage, Feel, Natural Look
Cons: The odd mica & bismuth glow!
Summary: The main problems with foundation are the cakiness, non-matural look, and that line of demarcation. Mineral makeup solves these problems because it naturally blends into your skin, doesn't cake up, and doesn't have that painty look. Bare Minerals, the ... read more

Pros: Does not irritate my sensitive skin at all!
Cons: Sometimes a bit messy, but not by much.
Summary: Like the other reviewers here, I have very sensitive skin and acne problems. I am 23 and I still get bad break-outs and have red, blotchy skin. My t-zone is oily but my cheeks are flaky and dry, though they get oily as well, and still stay flaky (see ... read more

Pros: great coverage, oil-free, non-irritating
Cons: can be messy
Summary: I first learned about Bare Minerals from the infomercial back in 2005. It seemed like a good idea, but so do many things on infomercials. I was lucky enough to live near a mall with a Bare Escentuals store in it, so one day, I popped in to try out the ... read more

Pros: Feels Great
Lets the skin breathe
Lasts a long time
Blends well with skin
Cons: No cons except that its not the best make-up for party girls.
Summary: Bareminerals is an essential product that I must always have on hand. I started using the line almost two years ago, and I am so happy that I found this brand. It has helped my skin clear up so much. Other face make-ups would block my pores and never ... read more

Pros: natural feeling, good color choices
Cons: takes a bit of work to cover redness
Summary: I hardly know where to begin with describing my own experience...I absolutely do enjoy using the bare escentuals/bare minerals makeup. I was a little skeptical at first, for a few different reasons. First, I couldn't understand how something as light ... read more

Pros: Great product! Love it!
Cons: Can be messy, seems expensive at first!
Summary: I started using Bare Minerals, Christmas 2006. My Moms best friend talked me into trying it. The first time I put it the makeup on, I was not really impressed. It looked to me like my normal skin. But now, a year later. It is all that I want to wear. ... read more

Pros: none
Cons: expensive, messy, bad color selection, acne and oil producing
Summary: A few years ago, I saw an infomercial with Bare Minerals. It seemed like a dream product. Buff, buff, buff away your imperfections! I bought the starter kit and began using it. I thought it must be better for my skin not to use liquid foundation. I
