I bought this product because my sister had positive results after using bare minerals. However, when I used this product, I started to break out. It still covers blemishes real well and evens out skin tone, but my face gets oily by the end of the day. I later bought the foundation primer by BE and it leaves my skin oil free and the foundation adheres to my skin a lot better but the foundation still seems to break me out. I've heard a lot of great reviews from friends and family about this product and it is rare that I hear about any negative reviews. It would be best to start off with the starter kit to see if the product works well with your skin. I would still recommend this product because like I said, there are more positive than negative reviews about this product.

I bought this based on the reviews on this website and I'm glad I did. I bought the starter kit for $75 at Sephora that comes with 2 shades of foundation, the mineral veil, warmth and the vitamin face lotion.

The foundation is very light and I hardly feel like I'm wearing anything at all. I like how it comes with the warmth because if I happen to tan in the summer (hasn't happened yet but it could!) I can add it to the foundation for a darker shade. I've tried 2 other mineral foundations before - I forget the first one but it caused me to break out and the other one was L'Oreal. L'Oreal was good but it'd come off easily where as Bare Minerals stays on for pretty much the whole day.

The only complaint I have is that unlike what the lady told me at Sephora, putting the mineral veil under the foundation does not help with the oiliness. My face does get oily more quickly when I wear this compared to when I don't wear any make-up. But that's easy to solve with the oil-absorbing sheets.

Overall this is a very good buy. Especially the starter kit!

This stuff gives good coverage but if you're a face toucher, this will definitely rub off throughout the day as any other powder would; I also find my nose and forehead look oily after a couple hours, but if you have the mineral veil it works great!

I've used this in the past. It's a great product. It definitely works for oily skin. I especially love the mineral veil. I can't leave home without.

This is a very versatile foundation that can be mixed with a moisturizer to become a tinted moisturizer or layered for a full, heavy coverage. It doesn't feel heavy at all and doesn't rub off like other liquid foundations Although Bare Escentuals claims this is for all skin types, I would not recommend this to people with dry skin because it doesn't "hold on" well and can look cakey. Those with combination skin or oily skin will have amazing results!

Big fan of bare esenctials' foundation products. former heavy m.a.c. studio f/x user that used to cover and proliferate my blemishes for years. exposed myself to the world and withdrew from my foundation addiction...now only use bare esenctials to grace my clear skin...it's able to cover minor/major blemishes (not to hd-movie perfection, but close enough)

I loved the foundation. It gives my skin a smooth and silky look. I am so happy with it. I have used covergirl ever since I was a teenager, but not any more. I never thought there would be such a big difference, but I absolutely love it. I did my mothers make-up with the foundation as well and I couldn't believe how great it made her look. An excellent product

I have never had what is considered as any facial problem skin.But I had viewed the infomercials for years regarding the Bare Minerals,I pretty much believed the ad,but like so many I waited for a very long time primarily because the ads usually ran so late at night,and I didn't really feel like calling in the early morning.
So one evening while doing ebay searches I found a number of sellers that had the product.
It was a sample package that contained nearly every sample of the Bare Minerals line of products.
I thought it would be a great way to try all of them at once,and get an idea if was worth the money or not.
Well I'm glad I did,again while I have no problems with my skin I did like the fact that the color sceme matched perfectly as I was able to blend the product well into my own neck line.
Unlike many other cosmetic products that often one has to be careful within the area of the neckline there were none with the Bare Minerals product.
I was amazed by how well I could still have my skin breath and yet be wearing a makeup.
It is truely well worth the price.
