For people who have bought/ tried bare minerals... How do you like it?

Question

Hello earthlings...

i have a slight case of rosacea and wanted to know if this foundation would cover it, how it feels on your skin (powder or cream), and if u think it is worth the money (y u liked it, or y u didnt). or are there better cheaper mineral foundations

Thanks!

Answer 1

i liked it, but i felt like it didn't cover my break-outs as well as it could have.

overall, i was satisfied with the product, but i'm not sure if i would use it again, because it just didn't cover enough, but i would definitely recommend it to people who want natural make-up, because it doesn't dry out your skin, and i actually did notice a good difference in my face once i started using it. and it covers dark spots under the eyes well too, so that was good.

Answer 2

I'm not sure if it will cover your rosacea well.

I use it and it doesn't cover my problem areas as well as I wish it would, but the makeup is really quite good.

It doesnt feel like your wearing anything and I adoreeee the mineral veil because my face can get shiny sometimes.

Good luck!

Answer 3

it definitely covered my skin well, but i have combination skin and it didn't work too well on the dry areas. but other than that it's more than a cream over a powder i guess? it's hard to describe. personally, i think it's worth the money but i think i like Everyday Minerals more than Bare because of my dry patches. (:

Bare Minerals looks like a powder but is actually creamy.  It provides light coverage and blends your skin tone into what I call soft focus.  It does not provide full coverage or even medium coverage for that matter, and if that's what you're looking for you probably won't like Bare Minerals or any other mineral foundation.  However, Bare Minerals is very healing to the skin and improved my skin tone and totally healed an acne scar I had too, all within a couple of months.  I definitely recommend the products.  When I want fuller coverage, I apply the Bare Minerals with the Handy BukI brush (it comes with the starter kit) because it gives fuller coverage than the other brush, and then I use a little Clinique concealer on the areas where I want more coverage.

If you want to try something cheaper, O Magazine voted Maybelline's mineral foundation line as the best one.  I haven't tried it myself, but the magazine loved it.

Answer 5

i love it! and it feels like your wearing nothing actually...

it covers my uneven spots well and i also have dark circles under my eyes (slightly anyways but it covers them too)
