BareMinerals RUINED my Skin: PLEASE READ
Back in January, I started using the BareMinerals Original Foundation. I was hooked, instantly! Super easy to apply plus it felt great on my skin! Shortly after starting this foundation, I started experiencing horrible breakouts. I'm not talking a small pimple here and there during your period. I me...

Changed Formula
I read that bareminerals was bought out. I had hoped that the new company would not mess with the forumals, and they did exactly that! Bismuth Oxychloride (a pore clogging ingredient) use to be the LAST ingredient on the ORIGINAL foundation and now on the NEW one it's the FIRST ingredient! Mica is a lot more expensive than Bismuth Oxychloride. So I'm assuming the new company is trying to save money by using more of the cheap pore clogging ingredient. I'm taking my recently purchased powder and liqiud bareminerals foundation back to the store! They cannot treat loyal customers this way!
This is an amazing light powder foundation!
Thank you to the Ulta Beauty Rep who spent the time with me to determine the proper shade. This powder foundation covers well, looks natural, and doesn't feel like you're wearing anything on your face at all. Love it!
bareMinerals original
this is the only foundation i've used in years!
Will never go back!
I used this in highschool and was neutral about it.Once I turned 35, my skin changed. everything I had wasn't working. I came back to this and it's amazing. It looks natural and I don't even feel it on my skin. I traveled with it and had no issues. I actually preferred to have the powder because it doesn't count towards your limited liquid bag. it lasts a long time, even more when you use their primer and veil powder I noticed. I paired this with the nars pot concealer and it's game changing!
Sorry, not for me
Tried applying it a couple times--it just looked cakey and showed more wrinkles than I thought I had!
