Customer Rating: Summary: Crappy Service Comment: I won't be using their products again since not only did they not assist me and cancel one of the erroneous orders (which was a duplicate) and save the shipping (which was so inefficient) but it will take them a full six weeks to refund me!! Customer Rating: Summary: I'll never go back to liquid foundation again! Comment: I have what i've always considered "problem skin". It's on the oily side with largish pores, prone to breakouts (even though I'm in my late 20s), and has a tendency to look greasy under makeup. For years I've worn liquid foundation to cover up these imperfections and to even out my skin tone. I never thought that a powder based foundation could work for me because they typically don't provide enough coverage.
I have a few friends that rave about bareMinerals, so when a store near me recently offered a free two week trial kit, I decided to try it. I was shocked at how well the bareMinerals foundation worked. It offers adjustable coverage, so I can wear more foundation when I need it, less when I don't. The makeup goes on smooth, is super easy to blend, and I never end up with a telltale foundation line on my chin. My skin doesn't get greasy under it, and it's all still there at the end of the day. All in all it seems like the perfect foundation!
This starter kit is a good deal if you're just starting out with bareMinerals. It has two foundation colors, so you can decide which one is right for you. It also has some All Over Warmth (it's basically a cross between blush and bronzer) and Mineral Veil (which is a great finishing powder) to finish your look. But the best thing about this kit is that it includes three brushes, a kabuki brush for full coverage foundation application, an all over face brush which works for lighter foundation application or mineral veil application, and a concealer brush for targeting problem areas and blemishes. The key to great bareMinerals application is these brushes, and the kit provides everything you need to get a flawless face every time. Customer Rating: Summary: All Day Natural Beauty... In Just 5 Minutes! Comment: I love the Bare Minerals products, and I got my start with this kit. Based on my friends' suggestions, I purchased Bare Minerals when planning do-it-yourself makeup for my outdoor wedding ceremony here in Hawaii. My photos came out looking flawless and the make-up lasted all night! Now, I use the products daily as part of my 5 minute beauty routine - medium beige powder, all over "warmth" (bronzer/blush) and mineral veil. The kabuki brush is wonderful -- so soft! The starter pack is an excellent value and a great way to try the products without a huge investment.
My skin is sometimes oily, but Bare Minerals keep the shine under control while still providing excellent coverage. I don't do any touch-ups throughout the day, either. I love the natural SPF 15, but because I live in such a sunny place, I still wear a light SPF 30 sunscreen underneath. I use my moisturizing sunscreen in lieu of the Skin Rever-Upper, which I sometimes use at night before bed. Overall, I love this line! They are the only non-drug store beauty products that I buy!
Customer Rating: Summary: Never clog pores~ Comment: I thought it is great! it doesn't clog pores and looks very natural. The set is complete and convenient to use! Customer Rating: Summary: never wear makeup Comment: I never wear makup and I decided to buy this product. I am really happy with it. It is really easy to put it on and it is so natural! The only thing I do not like is that it is difficult to transport (eg for trips).
