Not impressed. After all the hype, I finally go out and drop the cash to give this a try. I bought the starter kit in medium. It stays on, but blemishes are evident after a few hours. If you re-apply it starts to look cakey. I may be the only person in the world that doesn't like this product, but I have found that the Maybelline mineral powder foundation is just as good, but with better coverage and a fraction of the price. You just have to work so hard with the little brush to get a good even coverage. Too much work and too little results.

I bought the Get Started kit because a co-worker raved about it. I have sensitive skin, so normally have a really hard time finding foundation that isn't irritating. Bare Escentuals didn't irritate my skin, but wasn't very flattering. It looked like it was floating over my skin, so you could tell my skin was dry in spots and red in others. It didn't blend well, and was overall not very good coverage. If you have normal, non-dry or ruddy skin, this might be fine for you, but it just doesn't work for me. I was really disappointed.

I got this product because i wanted light coverage. I didnt really like it because i couldnt find a shade that worked best with me. I also didnt find the coverage as good as MACs Studio Fix. But it is great if you have break outs i know. I would recommend this product if you can find your shade and are looking for light coverage. I also recommend getting the mineral brush because i think that it does apply the product better than a normal brush.

I have been color matched for Bare Escentuals foundation at least four separate times. And every time, it looked either way too yellow, or like I was wearing a horrible ashy zombie mask. So gross. Aside from my own personal experience, I've used this product many times on other people and the coverage is fair at best. The loose powder gets all over the place, the brushes fall apart and the complexion enhancers are full of these sparkley bits that, seriously, make you look absolutely ridiculous. There are so many better, cheaper, more effective products on the market. Shame, Bare Escentuals, shame!

At first I didn't like it because you have to use it a lot in order to acheive light coverage. It is also $$. Then after a while I thought this stuff is great for your skin. It does clog pores and I did notice my complexion was a little better in a short while. Plus it doesn't rub or come off like the knock offs I switched to later. Only draw back was, as I stated before, not much cover. You have to use the smaller brush for heavier applications, but you will run out fast. That brush is for (heavy coverage) coverups. Over all this mineral makeup is the best mineral makeup on the market that I have used. Thats my story and I'm sticking to it.

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.
