If youve used bare minerals...?

Question

i was thinking about using bare minerals instead of liquid foundation but i was wondering if it would look good on my skin.

i have a very oily t zone with dry sometimes flakey cheeks... does the BM look weird on top of oil on skin?? and will it bring out the dryness of my cheeks

does it really last all day? and look natural.

let me know what you think of BM

Answer 1

I use Bare Minerals, and I love it.  It controls shine and it does not look flaky on dry skin because even though it looks like a powder, it's actually creamy.  It does last all day and it looks natural too.  Like I said, I love it.

Answer 2

I tried it but it made my face itch! They use bismuth oxychloride in their products and it makes a lot of ppl itch. You'll find that in Loreals, Arbonnes, Avons, and lotsa others!

I use the Hollywood mineral makeup from LA Minerals and it is fantastic!

The silk powder in it will help moisturize your cheeks, and the other ingredients are great for oil absorption.

I use some of their oil control powder on my forehead, then some of the bisque concealer under eyes, then the foundation.

I usually use the LIt Up shade of bronzer on my cheeks and eyelids when i'm in a hurry. Some mascara and lip gloss...and DONE in like 5 minutes!

Looks really natural, stays nice all day, doesn't sweat off.

You can get some samples for about $1 on their website and they ship them for free.

Answer 3

Get the lotion that bare minerals offers for skin renewal.  I have a combination skin also, and I find that it smooths my skin just enough for a healthy look.  I use as directed and never feel made up or look pastie or all one color.

Answer 4

I have used BM for a while (started not liking it)

I guess since I have really light skin the color didn't work for me.

I also found that I have reall oily skin and worked horrible. (One thing that works is neutragena deep cleaning facial cleanser for oily skin)

But I hated it. It also made my skin feel very ichy and I found I wasn't even allergic to it.

Also another thing is there is a ingrediant that has many people allergic to it so it's a little risky. I personally didn't like it.

I love just my powder and when I do need foundation I either use covergirl or mac.

Answer 5

i bought it but it was not my shade at all but i thinki would like it if it was my shade :D now i use it as a blush bronzer type of thing.
