LOVE IT! The first time you use it, put such a little amount that you think your not really using it. The trick here is that you really don’t need much. Everyone the first time or two puts WAY too much since we are programmed to using alot with the traditional make up’s. Bare Minimum amounts and you’ll be great…..

I love Bare Escentuals. I’ve been wearing the makeup for 18 months. It can take a few days to get the hang of putting it on so that you get the coverage you are looking for.

It is true that “less is more” with this makeup. I think that the reason that some people don’t think they get enough coverage is because they don’t buff enough. I do half of my face at a time and buff each side for 45-60 seconds. The more buffing you do, the more the foundation blends and covers.

The kits that they sell on QVC are always a great deal. I usually buy my mineral veil and base at my local Sephora, because it is the same price and you don’t have to pay for shipping. But I have gotten all of my eye colors, radiances, etc. from QVC kits. You can’t beat them.

Good luck with it. I hope you love it!

I think I am the only person on the planet who didn’t like the stuff. I put it on and I wasn’t impressed with the coverage. The TV made it look like some kind of miracle and I only have a few blemishes. Didn’t do anything for them. And at the risk of sounding contradictory, it just felt heavy and too creamy for a powder. I just didn’t like the way it felt on my skin. I guess I am just too used to my pressed powder.

I tried it because the company I work for takes their orders. I LOVE IT!! I haven’t had to use base in almost 2 years now!! I have very uneven skin tones and didn’t think this would work at all or would look caky and crappy. Now I get comments all the time about how fabulous my skin looks and how wonder it must be for me to not have to wear makeup…(thats how natural it looks!!)

I got my starter kit for 60 bucks at sephora and I love it! I have some acne scarring (discolorations, really — not the hole kind) to cover up and this stuff works wonders! I was a little skeptical since its a powder, but I use the Kabuki brush for full coverage and apply the foundation twice instead of once. Perfect. I also bought the Bisque concealer for 8 bucks more which I apply once all over.

I really dont use the Flawless Application brush, just for my Warmth and sometimes my mineral veil. It doesnt have enough coverage when I use it with the foundation. So the Kabuki brush is my favorite! Ever since I’ve been using it, I dont break out as often either and it helps with my oilyness.

You’re gonna love BE!

I love it. I especially love their Rare Minerals. It comes with a big puff and you pat it on.

my mom loves it. i tried it on me and i didn’t think it covered my “blemishes” well enough, like a matte foundation would.

I get Physicians Formula (same mineral stuff, cheaper price and you can get it at all the stores that sell makeup.)
