Bare Escentuals bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation

Pros: Lightweight, great coverage, conceals blemishes
Cons: Pot container can spill, pot not convenient for touchups

I am not much one for make up or cosmetics, but I do have quite an uneven complexion with blotchy redness. I hate that. So, I have tried many foundations (pressed powders, loose powders, foundation sticks, and even liquid foundations) to try to find ...

Pros: So easy to apply, concealer and makeup, lasts, no harsh ingredients, smooth and even skin
Cons: Careful don’t spill!

I’ve liked everything Bare Escentuals I’ve ever tried. But it took me a while to try their most popular product and that is the bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation. I got the Getting Stared kit in May for my Birthday, and have not used other makeup since. ...

Pros: Nice color, doesn't settle into lines, feels natural.
Cons: A general feeling- it is best for oily skin which mine is not.

I finally thought I had found the only foundation I would ever use by Sephora. It is called All Over Foundation but the key is to use Sephora’s base de tent under it. On one of my trips to New York City my daughter and I walked into Sephora and each ...

Pros: light-weight, 100% natural ingredients, flawless coverage, contains SPF 15
Cons: None for Me!

Bare Escentuals bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation is a new innovation in wearing make-up; That I've been watching for several years on the infomercials and QVC... I just could NOT convince myself that a powder foundation would work for me, ...

Pros: All natural ingredients from minerals, great coverage, contains sunscreen too!
Cons: None!

I've been searching high and low for the perfect foundation for southern Louisiana and the high humidity. The humidity is year round and you can find your makeup melting in the middle of January. The summer brings even more of a challenge with the ...

Pros: Stays on all day even in humid weather. Great coverage. No chemicals. Natural look.
Cons: Can be easy to spill. Only a few places to buy it.

I have been using makeup for years. I consider foundation a necessity since my complexion is far from perfect. I have tried many different foundations, looking for one that would consistently work for me without requiring me to apply numerous layers. ...

Pros: eliminates shine, moderately priced, no chemicals..
Cons: didn't provide promised coverage, messy, went on blotchy... etc.

Let me start by saying, I do love Bare Escentual's products overall. I am an absolute addict of their glimmer eye shadows. After receiving a 5 sample pack of the glimmer's, I headed back over to ebay to look for both the foundation and ...

Pros: Interesting concept, excellent marketing, all natural, SPF, light.
Cons: Too good to be true, expensive to try/use, must have near-perfect skin to use.

Hmmm. bareMinerals...you've probably seen the commercials...the women raving about the "naturalness" of the product, the fun, gimmicky "Swirl, Tap, Brush" application, the ghastly "before" and dazzling "after" stills of women of all ages and races. And ...

Pros: Very light, natural looking coverage. Long-wearing,long-lasting color.
Cons: May need some time to "set." Can look a bit too sheer.

I have been hearing about this mineral-based system of natural makeup for years and was keen to finally try it. Many times I had passed by the original Bare Escentuals location in my hometown of Los Gatos, California. Ok, so I first got some samples of ...

Pros: Great coverage, dewy, smooth skin!
Cons: Messy and not fit to be taken in your purse.

I love the look of dewy skin. Powder foundations have never given me that look. Liquid foundations were all I used to achieve that soft, dewy, even skin tone. That's until I found this DREAM of a product! To Apply: For good coverage you use the ...

Pros: Even coverage, non-irritating, weightless, no creasing. A mutli-tasker indeed!
Cons: None.

I've never been able to successfully apply foundation, powder, or any kind of liquid makeup and look natural. In fact, no matter how many times I practiced (and what a waste of time!) the stuff would blotch, cake, and crease. I've tried since I was 18 ...

Pros: Natural ingredients
Cons: Cost, Messy, Lurning Curve To Apply, Not Enough Colors

After thoroughly researching mineral makeup, I decided to update my review of Bare Minerals. My opinion hasn't changed about the foundation - it did not work for me, but I am better educated about minerals to revise my review. I bought the Bare ...

Pros: Natural looking, doesn't crease, doesn't rub off, stays put all day, actually improves your skin.
Cons: Seems expensive, but a little goes a long way.

My husband took me to New York City for my 42nd birthday to see Davy Jones at BB King's House of Blues. The day of the concert, we were walking around Times Square and I wandered into Sephora to scope out the goodies. While taking a break from sniffing ...

Pros: Great coverage, long lasting
Cons: Can spill and need to moisturize(sometimes heavily) first

I used to never wear make up. Traditional foundations never worked for me. I couldn't match up the color to my skin tone. I have oily skin in places and dry, flaky skin in others so foundation never wore well-no matter what kind I wore. And, I have ...

Pros: Provides even, light coverage with little effort; the infomercial does not lie
Cons: Requires practice and patience to get to your best face

Like most of the reviewers, I first heard about Bare Escentuals through its legendary infomercial. Of course, it looks too good to be true, but those before and after shots just sucked me in. It is embarrassing to admit I actually watched the whole ...
