“Bare Minerals Foundations- GREAT FOR...”

written by on 02/08/2011

First of all, I would like to begin by saying I have tried all different types of foundation over the years in the need of trying to camoflage acne and blemishes, as well as to gain a perfect natural look, and this product is truly FANTASTIC.
As a health conscious 19 year old, I rejoiced in a product that is 'so good for your skin you can sleep in it' as well as being made up of skin friendly minerals. In the 8 months I have been using these products, I have noticed a dramatic difference in my skin, which is now much clearer.
I would strongly reccommend to anyone before buying this product to have a lesson with a bare minerals consultant, which can be found at the makeup counter of bare minerals stockists such as debenhams as the application differs from other foundations. I would also advise that the 'lets get started kit' is purchased for mineral makeup virgins as it contains all the brushes, concealer, warmth (bronzer) and 2 foundations you will need, (as well as a dvd to give tips and advice) and it works out cheaper than purchasing all these items seperately.
Coverage of this makeup is as much or as little as you wish, but at no time does it feel like you are caked in makeup, or wearing too much. It also makes it perfect for holidays and is available in an array of different shades to suit even the fairest of the fair. The brushes are durable and compact, and a little goes a long long way! You can buy each pot of foundation seperatly which is approx 8g, and this lasts me (someone who wears full coverage everyday) about 10 weeks. I have combination skin, and find this works just as well in the dry areas as it does the oily areas.
This product hides pigmentation well with the help of the bare minerals concealer, which is a MUST for anyone wishing to hide blemishes.
The makeup is durable, lasts all day, and really does improve the quality of your skin. It is also perfect for really hot days and holidays, when wearing a thick liquid foundation may feel uncomfortable and cause outbreaks.
I have tried all different makeups and skin care regimes, including Cliniques No More Blemishes Foundation range and found that this is FAR cheaper, and coverage is much better.

IMPROVES ACNE, doesn't clog pores (you only have to compare the endless list of your normal foundations ingredients compared with a Bare minerals foundation to see why)
HIDES PIGMENTATION/SCARRING/BLEMISHES
10/10, would recommend for all makeup wearers, wonderful product!
