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...

you can't have an oily moisturizer on your skin or it will apply patchy, something mattifying or nothing at all is best. I used the live tinted sunscreen under this product and it is the perfect primer. if you have oily skin this is like 10 out of 10. even if you have combination skin this is just going to be probably the most natural looking product. a little goes a very long way you don't have to use a lot of it you can spot conceal with the product which is best cuz you do not want to like cake this on. they also make concealers which I don't like for the under eye because it makes it look like paper mache but I just use a Korean color corrector for my under eye that is like an oil-based product and I have no issues with the powder or the oil when both are used sparingly and kept separate from each other. mineral veil is a must it's the best setting powder that I've ever used. I am glad that they made the lightest shade lighter because it finally doesn't look weird on my skin and it matches perfectly. I had used this product years ago and it was too orange or too pink and never pale enough. if you use The hourglass finishing powders over this it looks better than any other combination of foundations for textured oily skin that I've ever used in my life when you prime with the live tinted sunscreen use this as the foundation mineral veil to set and then The hourglass finishing powders it just looks like nice natural skin.
Bismuth Oxychloride Warning!
I used to be a loyal bareMinerals user. It took a year just to clear my skin up when I stopped using it. Mineral powders are wonderful, but stay clear of Bismuth oxychloride in ANY cosmetic. It's cheap,helps the makeup adhere to the skin and gives it a soft glow, but it is not worth damaging your skin. There are other options that could be used. It was a nightmare for my skin. The tiny, sharp-feeling particles irritate, clog pores, and cause bumps. This in turn has an inflammatory effect. In Florida's heat, my skin itched, making it unbearable. If you're sensitive or acne-prone, avoid this ingredient — it's just not worth it. If you just can't seem to clear your skin up and you wear this product, consider this may be a BIG reason why. If you notice your skin is itchy, especially when you are sweating or in a high humidity area while wearing makeup with BiOCl, this is an indicator that you are sensitive to it. Hope this helps someone.
This works so good!
I've been using this for many years and still love it!
Definitely buy over and over.
