Most Helpful Positive Review I've been using this for 18 Yrs; I'll Never Switch I've been using the Bare Minerals Original Foundation since 1999 and I will never switch back to a liquid foundation or a different foundation ever again. Since 1999 I can say that I've had a handful of breakouts--it that. I have health issues and I often find myself sleeping (taking naps or sleeping overnight) in my makeup and, like I said, it has RARELY caused a breakout. So basically, I can sleep and sweat in it and not have to worry about clogged pores. I think this is the best foundation on the market.
Also, I think this is the most natural looking foundation on the market. I get a lot of compliments on my skin. Part of it, I will admit, is due to genetics. But the other part is due to the Bare Minerals Original Foundation. Once you find your shade, people won't know you have foundation on. Oh..it'll cover your flaws..but it won't be obvious. Your skin will still look natural looking. That's how good this foundation is. Trust me! And it doesn't take much either to get the coverage you need--so this stuff will last you a long, long time!. I love this stuff!
Most Helpful Critical Review 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 mean those under the skin, painful cysts. Because of these embarrassing pimples, I continued to buff this stuff into my skin, more and more each day, watching my acne get worse. Unaware that my new foundation could be the cause, I continued using this for a few months, still getting horrible cysts. My doctor prescribed me Epiduo AND and oral antibiotics. NOTHING was working. Finally, I decided to do some research into BareMinerals. I was shocked when I found page after page filled with information on why this is some of the worst stuff for your face. Type in "BareMinerals causing acne" into Google and do some research. I urge everyone to look up the facts about this foundation before buying it, ESPECIALLY if you have sensitive, acne prone skin (mica and bismuth oxychloride are used in this product). Bismuth oxychloride is a known skin irritant, which is funny because the reason I tried this is because the brand markets itself as all natural with no skin irritants! Don't make the mistake I did. Now that I've discontinued using anything BareMinerals, the cysts have decreased dramatically. Don't be fooled with this stuff!

This is the BEST sheer foundation - easy to apply and touch up. And one jar lasts a long time too.
I LOVE THIS FOUNDATION 4
Bobbi from Hurricane, Utah
I would give this foundation 5 stars, but I'm giving it 4 stars because I wish you would get more product with the price. Other than that, this foundation made my dry, dull skin look so so healthy and glowy. I am obsessed with this loose powder foundation and wish I would've tried this sooner. I have tried many liquid foundations, but because of my dry skin, they always seem to cling onto all the patches and texture, no matter how much moisturizer I used or if I exfoliated or not. With BareMinerals, a little goes a long way! I buffed this into my skin after using the BareMinerals Rescue Complexion with tinted moistuizer. I finally found my holy grail after searching for so many years. Thank you < 3
Love this foundation. Recommend! 5
Ruth from North Carolina
Purchased multiple times in past. Wear alone and sometimes over foundation depending on what I am doing. Wear over Clinique foundation or IT CC cream.
Great coverage and sets liquid foundation.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Love the makeup 5
Karen from Richland
It's getting to expensive!! You are pricing a lot of us out of being able to keep buying it
I'm liking this power! 5
Dee from 36124
I normally don't use power, but a bronzer in the T-zones of my face. This shade is lovely and I'm liking it.
Hesitant at first, but now I get the hype 4
Savannah from Winchester, VA
My friend recommended that I try bare minerals powder foundation after telling her I was looking for a light foundation that's semi-coverage. I wasn't sure about a powder because I thought it wouldn't show up and cover blemishes. To my surprise it actually worked and looked so smooth and felt like I wasn't even wearing makeup.
I love this product…Been using this for many years! 5
Italian mamma from Salisbury NC
This foundation powder goes on very smoothly,it won't clog pores and leaves on a very natural sheen.I use it every day.
I would definitely recommend this product 5

I have been using bare minerals for several years because as an older person it doesn't make me look plastic! It's. a natural look that covers ugly spots!!
Most definitely. 5
Diana from Michigan
Love this product.
Great for covering redness 5
AE from London
I have rosacea and love to quickly put this on before my zoom meetings to cover up the redness. The coverage is great, but it doesn't last all day. But I love how it makes my skin glow subtly. For reference I have normal-to-slightly-dry skin.
Great coverage 4

Love Bare Minerals as it does not feel like you are wearing a bunch of heavy make up. I like a natural look and with the spf this is great with a base of smash box photo finish. Perfect 1,2 for me.
Best Foundation 5

Best foundation for my sensitive skin!
Absolutely love Bare minerals and always have!!! 5
Brit brat from Scottsdale Az
No matter how many other products I have tried, I've always used and bought bare minerals regardless!! My face breaks out a little here and there and it makes my skin feel comfortable and not a feeling of the "cake look". It also keeps my face clear! Love!
I would definitely buy this product again 5
Kat from Hogansville, Ga
I love Bare Minerals have used it for 15 years. It is good for your skin. You look natural not all made up.
I can always count the day on a complement 5
Shari E from Tulsa
I've worn many foundations, bb & cc creams, and tinted moisturizers but this is the only one that brings me complements consistently. I'm 61 and I get complements on my skin often. As much as I love switching up my makeup and skincare I have to stick with this foundation. It really makes my skin look great.
Love this foundation! 5
LollieA from Chattanooga
You're able to build the coverage and it's very blend-able as well as matches my skin tone very well.
Bare Minerals loose powder is always a good purchase. 5
Susan from Olathe, KS
Nothing beats the fine loose powder of Bare Minerals. It goes on flawlessly and coverage is light and effective.

Have used for years. Always complimented on how great my makeup looks. Wish you would give coupons!!!
I wanted to love this so bad, but it disappoints 2
AB from Virginia
It comes on nice at first, but you can't buff it in too much or it gets blotchy. Clings onto and accentuates every texture on your skin. After only a couple hours, it looks like a greasy textured mess. Rubs off easily even at the slightest touch.
My shade 5
Cly from North Carolina
Please keep this color in stock. This is the only one I use.
Thanks.

I've used this product for years and never have much of a problem with it. I prefer it over all liquid foundation. It seems the quality of the product has gone down. It's not as good at covering what I need it to anymore.
Yesssssss!♡ 5
