    Nice to use. Light. Gives great flawless coverage and has SPF. Works well for my sensitive skin, didn't find any breakouts or anything caused from it. Win win in my books!

    I don't like to wear a lot of make up becuase it always feels really heavy. I love how the powder is light and feels like I am not wearing any make up!

    I got a starter kit in light/fair for last holiday season but it was too light for me, and I was disappointed because it didn't do anything for me.
    Then I got a sample of a medium beige shade from sephora and unexpectedly it became my go to foundation for the summer. I was quite darker during the summer so it worked.
    Recently I got a new jar in yet another shade because summer rays are gone and my face is back to pale - i'm a golden fair. It's a nice texture, goes on well, doesn't cake. I noticed that it looks better as the day goes by, I have fairly dry skin so as the oils come out more, it makes it more radiant looking. And for winter I will most likely be using it as a setting powder for my liquid foundation.

    One great improvement are the new inside locking lids they make - twist in place and the product isn't going to spill all over the place.

    I have normal skin with an occasional oily t-zone. I've been using this for about 3 weeks and I love it. I put a little on and it looks flawless. If I am going out at night and need a little more coverage I can put more on without having it look like I dipped my face in cake.

    The Sephora website says:
    Here's what women have said:
    - 98% said this foundation leaves skin soft, smooth, and younger looking*
    - 90% saw improvements in their skin's appearance with continued use*
    - 93% said this foundation makes skin look more radiant*
    *Based on an independent consumer study

    Added bonus: the lid has a part that turns and clicks to cover the little holes so when you travel the powder doesn't leak and explode in your lap when you unscrew the top.

    I have used bareMinerals for over a year now. I'm not normally a foundation-wearing person, but the SPF addition and the positive reviews prompted me to try them out when I wanted to add a bit of foundation to my makeup routine. As someone who doesn't normally wear foundation, I found bareMinerals a great product. It was easy to apply and it provided good coverage without making my skin look cakey. In fact, the first time I wore it I received many compliments on my skin! The only down side is the price. It is expensive, but the product definitely works. You can get as much or as little coverage as you would like. I would recommend bareMinerals to someone who is looking for a light foundation that will serve them well.

    This is by far my favourite mineral foundation..It gives great coverage, it is easy to appy and it doesn't irritate my skin....it is worth the slightly higher price tag

    The price is great considering how much product you get. I bought the Try. Believe. Love. 30-Day set and there is still plenty of foundation left after 60 days! If you have dry skin, be sure to use a decent to heavy moisturizer because this is a powder your skin will feel dry after putting it on. The lasting power is impressive, it managed to stay in place after a two hour hike!

    I discovered bare minerals during a trip to washington state at a department store, and haven't gone back to other foundations! The lady at the department store counter showed me the step by step process of applying bare minerals and ended up selling me on it. Its so light weight and durable, and makes my skin look flawless!

    I LOVE this foundation set. I bought it a few months ago, when my skin was acting up, and it truly helped clear my uneven skin tone (with the help of other products too), very quickly! I usually stay away from powder-type foundations, but the rave reviews on this brand couldn't keep me away from trying it (beauty junkie).

    Here are the things I love about it
    - build-able coverage.. it doesn't take very much to create a very natural look, but it can be forgiving to uneven skin tones
    - it is so light, you cannot feel it!
    - It stays on all day, doesn't smudge, smear, or look blotchy by the end of the day
    - It is one of the most natural/eco-friendly alternatives for foundations out there
    - it is fragrance free, and works well on sensitive skin
    - it claims to give your skin nutrients and minerals (not sure if this is true, but it helped my skin!)
    - has an SPF in it!
    - matches skin tone easily

    The only thing I'm not crazy about is the price, but it was honestly worth it! Great product- would recommend!
