Anyone tried Bare Escentuals - Bare Minerals foundations? I'm thinking of buying this... supposed to be really light with great coverage without clogging pores... etc...

Anyone tried it already? what did you think?

I use it right over my regular foundation. I do that because my foundation is a little light so the bare minerals helps to darken the color for me. I never used it alone. I personally feel it would not be enough coverage for me. It definately does not break you out in any way. I do not feel it would last all day either if i used it alone. Just my opinion. If you are someone who is not looking for total and complete coverage than i would say go for it.

Hi Cyster,
Bare Escentuals is Great! I use it everyday! I Use just the Powder Foundation and the Warm and then the Mineral Veil. I love it. I do have to touch it up at the end of the day with only the Mineral Veil.
I use the small brush to cover up by blemishes and then I use the short brush for the rest of the face. I have been using it for almost a year now and I think it looks really good and it covers up great. I probaly use more than a person with no blemishes, but the difference is you can't tell that I cake it on verses when I was using a regular foundation from another brand.
I highly recommend it! Good Luck to you.
God Bless you!!
