L'Oreal Bare Naturale Mineral Foundation

Please do not use the brush that comes with this product, it will irritate your skin and make it itch for the entire day, at least it did for me. Without the brush, this is a good product, it gives decent coverage and stays on all day. For super dry skin, I would not recommend this, as it is quite drying and will make your dry areas stand out more, for oily skin this could be really good and comparable to higher end mineral makeup. I have dry skin and can use this in the summer, as long as a moisturize well beforehand, and use a primer. I use the colour, Light Ivory and it matches me well, and I apply it with my ecotools bronzer brush, it is a touch too big to fit in the shifter area, but I make do with it since like I said, the brush that comes with this is absolute garbage.

For the price this product gives you for what it is--generic drugstore product. Don't get me wrong, its not horrible, but it's not great either. After an hour of wear, my face definitely shows the wear an tear of not superior mineral makeup. If you are will to shell out a few more $ for the original bare mineral i would recommend it.

I was very disappointed in this product. It gave me dry and patchy after I had used it, and was hard to apply. I was expecting it to be more like all the other great L'Oreal products I have bought, but it did not seem to live up to their standards. Whenever I went out into the sun, dry patches on my cheeks and oily buildup on my nose from this mineral foundation was highly noticeable while wearing this product. It also looked to harsh on my skin, very cakey too. I would not recommended buying this product, you'll only be disappointed in what you paid for.

I Have used Loreal Mineral makeup pretty much since it came out! I have pale, sensitive dry skin and this make up is perfect for ALL skin types. I used to use Cover Girl Advanced Radiance but it made my dry skin much more visable. The mineral make made my skin even looking and fresh, And there powder concealer works WONDERS for the dark circles under my eyes! I have recomend this to ALL my friends!

So I finish up my regular foundation and decide to go ahead and follow the mineral makeup craziness...
I grew a second forehead, then a second cheek, it took me a month to understand the reason for my uncharacteristic break outs... To this day I am a person that has not suffered of any sort of break outs, no acne, nothing... even during my teenager days
I decided to do a skin test as they always suggest, on my hand, and there it was, a protrusion, similar to my "2nd forehead and cheek"
Sure it was the first I reacted to a product, what really let me down was that I could not tell loreal what it was doing to me...
I hope all you fair skinned ladies read this and watch the titanium oxide levels u put on your skin

I'm a medium to dark skin tone (an NC40 for all of you MAC users) and this stuff looked horrible on me. It looked very ashy and gave no coverage. I'm returning this tomorrow and getting something else. I wanted a drugstore powder foundation and it looks like I'll have to keep looking. $20 is WAY too much for a product that doesn't work.

i bought this in a sample pack that also included the glow and finish i have found the finish to be a little to light for my skin but the glow and foundation are excellent. even covers my red blothyness and age lines.

this i feel is the best foundation that i have used to date, goes on smothe does not feel like pancake after use.
