i discovered bare minerals whilst in new york, after seeing it on tv alot back in the uk i'd thought i'll give it a try and brought the starter kit for fair skin. my skin is fair/yellow olive skin and i was amazed how it blended well with my natural colour. up until today it has nearly been 10 months since i brought it and im just about finished with the powder. i found it was VERY light weight on my skin and when i do wear liquid foundation(MAC) it really feels as if i got a mask on and i can't wait to get it off at the end of the day. the i.d foundation gives a good coverage if u have good/decent skin, however if you've alot of blemishes this is not for you because it won't hide it like magic unfortunatly. i got the golden/medium tone and in the light my skin glows like a dewy look which i like. the kit came with a dark blush colour its very pigmented so just a tiny amount will make a difference.
my overall view on bare minerals is that its great for me, i wear it everyday unless i've got a big night out thats where mac steps in but other than that im very happy with what it gives me as in coverage and feel. you can put the foundation on with your eyes closed if u want and still u will look good. that said im planning my next trip to the shop to buy it =)
