Gives perfect coverage and hides any blemishes without me even applying concealer! Had many compliments that my skin is glowing after using BareMinerals :) Great stuff! -
28 February 2013 Kim
Love how this foundation feels so smooth when you apply it but be aware that it does highlight white heads and looks more visible but the problem can be solved if you treat it or put concealer or foundation over it first. Other from that I still love it and will continue to. :) -

I am a BareMinerals addict! I love this foundation as I've always preferred the natural look and this is perfect, my skin looks even and fresh without looking like I'm wearing anything. The best!!! -
23 January 2013 Lydia
Love this foundation. Works really well on my sensitive skin. Is really easy to apply(I use the ELF face kabuki brush) and gives a very natural finish. The only complaint I have with this foundation is that it doesn't have very good colors for us pale girls. I am fair with yellow undertones and I find that the only shade that is pale enough for me is the shade Fair, but it's a little bit too pink for me. Maybe I should try the Golden Fair next time? -

18 September 2012 Julia Hållander
I absolutley love it! It makes make up in the morning quick and easy :) -
18 September 2012 Pernille
The best combo of a foundation and powder I ever tried. It gives you the same perfect result as a creamy foundation but it looks and feels as if you are practically not wearing anything. I would never buy anything else than this product. The Medium colour goes well for a pale skin. -
12 September 2012 Katie
LOVE this foundation. Will never use another foundation again. Has the smoothest finish, perfect coverage and doesn't feel like I'm even wearing makeup. Leaves my skin looking flawless, can't recommend enough! -

Love this foundation, works really well for oily/combination skin. Leaves a velvety smooth finish that I loved! -
04 March 2012 unni
once i found a shade that looked natural on me,and got hold of a good kabuki brush-i am satisfied. it keeps longer than regular no mineral foundation. the only sad thing is during winter when i need to wear a good cold cream to keep my skin healthy,it is not compatible with this foundadtion. you need a primer like moisturizer under bare ecentual foundation -
10 February 2012 Martine
This is probably the best foundation I've ever used!! Great coverage and you get a natural look! I can't live without it. I would recommend this to anyone! -
02 February 2012 Line Rakvåg Malones
This foundation contains bismuth oxychloride, which makes my skin itch, and build up this greyish color... It looks great at first, but after a while my skin get all itchy, and I also develop impurities. I do not recommend this for people with sensitive skin! -
18 January 2012 Helene
I have loved this product since I first started using it like 6 years ago. I got because I was in my teens and was having problems with pimples and such. It really helped me cover it up real good. And also my skin was very dry at that time, and my skin looked good with I.D on anyway! With liquid foundations you could always see that my skin was very dry. -
05 December 2011 Marita MN
The best foundation I've ever used! It looks really natural, and some people can't spot that I'm wearing make-up at all. It coveres everything and my skin is healthier than ever. -
29 September 2011 Isabell
This is a question, what do you guys use under this foundation? I have oily skin, but i can get dry spots in my face.. So if i dont use some light cream under, the spots will show. And i have oily skin, so after i put on my foundation i use a powder to set it, but this is just a powder, so what can i do to not get oily trough out the day? Sorry for my english -
26 September 2011 Cecilia
This is the only foundation that ive used that i keep coming back to. Ive tried sooo many different foundations but this one is the best! Love it! -

19 September 2011 Beth
This was recommended to me by my sister and it's fantastic. I have dry, sensitive skin and all other foundations accentuate that. Bare minerals gives a great coverage without making you look over made up. Love it! -
19 September 2011 Hannah
This is brilliant! I have been converted to Bare Minerals and will never go back. Looks great and stays on well. -
06 September 2011 benedicte
I love this foundation because it covers the red areas I have on my cheaks. It also covers perfectly without feeling that I clog my pores. The Bare Escentuals foundation comes in so many shades as well. Makes it easier to find a shade that is more compatible with your skin. Thank you for a great product! -
02 September 2011 Linda
I sometimes stray and try other foundations but 5 years later, this foundation is still my go-to! It's light, doesn't break me out and looks very natural. Not to mention the foundation completely matches my complextion... -

This is the best foundation I have ever used. I have used this for years as is my most essential cosmetic. It is easy to put on , you can never used too much, it doesn't come off and it is so natural and flawless looking and it is so good for your skin too, my acne cleared up thanks to this makeup, I love it. Thank you so much. -
29 July 2011 Julie Edwards
The foundation gives good, even coverage, doesn't dry out the skin, It fills in open pores and since I started using it 2 years ago, I haven't had either shine or a spot. It is expensive and I found that I had to use more than the video indicated, but I wouldn't want to go back to liquid foundation. Highly recommended. -
28 July 2011 Carole Ritchie
Before using Bare Minrals make up, I could only wear foundation for short periods of time. I never really found a make up which didn't make my skin react in some way. Now, I'm able to wear Bare MInerals all day at work with no negative reaction. It looks so natural too. -
22 July 2011 Lucy Mackenzie
Absolutely brilliant foundation, full coverage and lasts all day, have been using it for few years - would definately not go back to liquid foundation. Also perfect service from Beautybaby many thanks -
20 July 2011 Benedicte

27 May 2011 TS
The best mineral foundation I have ever used!!! so natural and doesn't break me out. Plus, a little goes a long way. Can't live without this!!!! -
18 May 2011 Petra
Just a warning for fellow Rosacea sufferers: Bismuth Oxychloride and Mica can cause major flare-ups, and I wasn't aware of it. It made my skin really sore and inflamed - the buffing technique probably doesn't help. Still 3 stars because it's certainly good for other skintypes, just not for Rosacea. -
18 May 2011 helene
I've tried a few other foundations but I always go back to this, it gives that glow that you want, I love it! -
06 May 2011 Cathrine
I don't use alot of make-up because I have quite sensitive skin and regular high-street foundations and powders tend to dry my skin or make me break out. However, after using bare minerals this has not happened. Also, I am asian and any foundations I have tried had either made me look pink or too 'brown', but I was able to find the perfect colour. -
08 April 2011 Karen Williams
At last I have finally found a foundation I can use that suites my pale skin without getting that dreaded tide mark look!. I use the fairly light foundation powder which I find is light on my skin, does not feel or look like I am wearing a mask and it also helps my skin to breath which prevents my skin breaking out. 5/5 -
31 March 2011 Alexandra
A foundation that is very gentle to the skin and makes you look descreetly perfect without looking like a plastic doll. It is wonderful to be able to cover up imperfections in a way that does not irritate the skin furter. The little jar also lasts forever:) -
28 March 2011 PF
Excellent! Covers my rosacea perfectly. -
22 March 2011 carole
I have never had the best skin in the world, but this foundation makes it looks so much better without looking as though it's heaped on -
21 March 2011 Sofia

02 March 2011 Silja P. Holm

02 February 2011 Angela Evans
I suffer with Rosacea so most foundations are not suitable for my skin ive tried other mineral foundations but they just made rosacea worse.Then i tried yours & i must say its fantastic not just does it cover rosacea i had no outbreaks at all.Its what it says it is natural -
02 February 2011 Anne
Best foundation ever. Easy to apply, great coverage with the result that it barely shows that you're wearing make up. I've been using it for years, both day time and when I go out dancing. My skin loves it! -
02 February 2011 Helle
Great foundation, melts perfectly into the skin and easy to apply! Quick delivery! -
02 February 2011 Kaisa
Wonderful product. Doesn't feel like a mask in your face. Evens out perfectly. Does seem to fade a bit during the day, but looks even nicer if you puder some more on. -
02 February 2011 Malin Damgaard
This is the one and only fondation, that´s fits my skin. I haved tried so many diffrent typs and this is soo amazing. -
02 February 2011 Marie
The foundation is easy to apply and blends in perfectly. It is very light and leaves you with a feeling of not wearing makeup. Also, it is easy to do shading and highlights with the colors. In the winter I for example use both Fairly light and Light to get the perfect natural look. -
02 February 2011 Marja Nykänen
I found this product through a friend and just like her I will never go back. It's natural looking, easy to apply and stays on while being light weighted. I recommend this product to anyone, even though I have relatively dry skin this foundation works wonders! -
02 February 2011 Mia
:) -
02 February 2011 Sanja
The best foundation that I've ever used! Couldn't ask for more than this! :) -
01 February 2011 Elaine Slye
started using this foundation last year and love it would never go back to liquid foundation, recommend it to everyone. -
01 February 2011 Jennie
This is an excellent foundation and can be applied as heavily or as lightly as you like. If you have a less than perfect skin texture why not try it with a liquid foundation, you'll be amazed! -
01 February 2011 Julie
I LOVE it!! I blends in perfect and makes my skin look perfect! -
01 February 2011 Kelly Wood
Hello beautiful face! This foundation is simply amazing. I use it everyday because it gives my skin such a lovely finish and it lasts all day! I really love how natural it feels when you're wearing it too as it makes you feel like you're actually going bare! If you want to look fabulous but natural too, this is 100% the product for you! xxxx -
01 February 2011 Maria
This is the best mineral foundation I've tried. It looks really good I think and "melts" onto the skin in the right way. -
01 February 2011 Paula
A great light foundation which looks and feels better then other foundations I have used. Nice to use for daytime and holidays when you want to look good without the use of heavy make-up. It's also convenient for travelling (no spills or cake foundation breaking) Best of all no build up spots after all day wear or if you forget to take it off. -
01 February 2011 Tanja
Great product! Love it, love it, love it! :D -
01 February 2011 Vikky Wis
Great foundation! Covers redness on the skin and feels very natural. Recomend it! -
29 September 2010 Mels
The best foundation I have ever used. Even after a day at work the foundation still looks perfect. Would highly recommend to anyone. -
17 July 2010 Kayleigh Evans
I have really pale skin and have struggled to find a foundation that doesn't make me look orange! This is the best foundation I've ever used though I found the fair one tends to clump and go into a liquid/cream towards the end of the day whereas fairly light doesnt!? Great product though, would highly recommend -
29 June 2010 Hanne
Fast delivery,great product! (Norway) -
07 April 2010 By Fang
Great prodcut. It makes your skin look so beautiful and pure.Simly wonfderful, and I would like to recommend it to everyone who likes mineral make up. -
20 March 2010 Fran
I bought the starter pack and now wouldn't be without it. I hadn't used powder form make-up for years so it took a little getting used to initially but within a couple of uses I had the hang of how much to use and now it is a quick make-up routine in the morning. Great stuff for covering all blemishes too! -
16 February 2010 Sue
Fantastic product been using it for over 5 years had lots of people commenting on my skin, if only they could see it without bare minerals! Excellent delivery etc from beauty bay so glad to find somewhere local to buy without having to wait weeks for the product -
16 February 2010 petrina
Fantastic product-like the new sifter pots but be careful they do spill a little. Practice with the starter kit and you will love it-feels very light on the skin. -
05 February 2010 Julie Walker
Ladies buy this product and throw out all your old foundations because this is amazing. Beauty Bay is the cheapest place that I have found to buy as well and they deliver it really fast. -
07 November 2009 Alessia
thanks great product!!! -
25 October 2009 Kristin
i have always had problems with my skin. if i was wearing normal make up on my skin blemishes would appear after some hours. about one year ago i started with Bare Escentuals, and i cant like without it! i can put on as mush as i want and it dousnt affect my skin. i have also noticed it has netrulized my redness in my cheeks!!! BUY IT!!! -
21 October 2009 Kristen
This product has unbelievable coverage considering its a loose powder, and when it goes on gives you a creamy translucent look. Use the concealer brush with the foundation and if you have any blemishes, it hides everything. Very fast and easy to apply, and one pot lasts me 8-10 weeks. I've been using it for 2 years now and I wont wear anything else. -
14 October 2009 Betty
thank you, best i ever had -
14 October 2009 June Rhodes
have used bare essentials for just over 12 mths now. wont use any other now its so easy to put on and gives a good coverage, but the big plus is to me the price its so much cheaper to buy on Beauty Bay than where i first purchaced it first time and a fast delivery thanks Beauty Bay -
14 October 2009 Lyn Boardman
I've been using this product for over 12 months and couldn't do with out it. Triedother minerals but no contest it has to be bare escentials. Make sure you use the brushes recomended and buff, buff, buff for a flawless finish. -
14 October 2009 Ruth
I have always hated putting on liquid foundation (so messy). Bare Minerals is easy to apply and you get to keep your hands and clothes free from streaks and the dreaded make up tide line. If your new to Bare Minerals start with the starter kit (very good value) and then progress like me to buying just what Bare Minerals you choose to use. -
14 October 2009 Tirion White
This product is god send i have finally found make up that suits my pale complextion and covers up redness and imperfections and keeps oiliness at bay. This is one product i cannot live without -
14 October 2009 debra hughes
the first time i used the foudation i felt i looked 10yrs younger i wont stop using it.
- SWIRL a small amount of bareMinerals into the lid with the Flawless Application Brush (for lighter coverage) or the Full Coverage Kabuki Brush (for more coverage) until the bareMinerals are tucked into the bristles.
- TAP off excess. bareMinerals should not be visible on the outside of the brush.
- BUFF bareMinerals onto the skin in a swirling, circular motion, starting on the outside of your face near your cheekbones. Then, buff around your face, working your way to your cheeks, forehead and nose. Buff until you're satisfied with the coverage. Less is more when applying bareMinerals.
- For medium coverage apply with Flawless Application Face Brush.
- For fuller coverage apply with Full Coverage Kabuki Brush.
