I don't use foundation very often, but when I do, this is what I reach for. I'm NC40 in MAC and use the shade Camel. It's a perfect match and evens out my skintone while looking very natural. The...

Out of the many new powder foundations I've been trying lately (one I used for years was discontinued) this was *almost* the winner. It didn't irritate my very reactive skin, I liked the compact,...

I like powder foundations for day to day wear because I don’t like a completely done up look everyday. However, I hated this. It literally just sits on top of my skin and looks horrible. You can...

Very disappointed. Doesn’t last long and barely covers anything. Not worth the price.

I am disappointed about the powder, cause the price is quite high, of course, not like MAC or any other brands. Also, I more like natural cosmetics, cause they have the necessary ingredients to...

2: OKAY so I think if you are only moderately oily this is totally fine. I brought it back to 4/5 lippies because I recently got a new sunscreen that is more suited for my oily skin and...

Is bareMinerals foundation good for your skin?

Free from parabens, binders and fillers, mineral makeup is hypoallergenic, making it a better choice for sensitive skin and those with acne concerns, rosacea, psoriasis and eczema. But mineral makeup works for all skin types, not just sensitive ones.

What is good about bareMinerals makeup?

Clean, pure and naturally protective. We use minerals because of their unique ability to protect skin from damaging UVA and UVB rays—leading to visibly improved skin texture and tone—as well provide customizable coverage without clogging pores, causing breakouts or irritating sensitive skin.

Can you really sleep in bareMinerals makeup?

To ensure a healthier complexion and reduce the risk of irritation we advise you remove your makeup before bed. Although mineral makeup does not clog pores and is much safer than conventional makeup, we still advise you maintain a good skin care regime, which means resisting the urge to sleep in your makeup.

Is mineral makeup good for aging skin?

Mineral Makeup Provides Longer Wear and Decreased Aging You may remember how traditional foundation feels on your skin; it is heavy and often settles into creases, fine lines, and wrinkles. Meanwhile, mineral makeup offers a lightweight feel and does not settle into fine lines, preventing a dull and aged appearance.
