Bare Escentuals bareMinerals All-Over Face Color

this makeup is quite nice and can look subtle -- but I hate how messy it is !! The powders get everywhere and I have to clean up the sink over and over....not to mention that the product (and my money)is getting wasted. doesn't anyone else have this problem ? Plus I hate their makeup brushes. My brush sheds all over me and they arent very soft.

For years I've struggled to find a product that would stop my oily forehead shine, but I'd always have to retouch several times through out the day and even blot with tissues. I thought I'd give this a try, what did I have to lose...Right! Well, much to my pleasant surprise my oily forehead stays matte and fresh looking all day!!! The first time I used it I kept going to the mirror for a touch up, but I didn't need it. It took me several days to realize I could stop running to the mirror :)

I like the light feel of the cover as well, but you will need to spot touch blemishes, they do tend to break through the color if they are moderate to severe. This only happens for me during "that time of the month" otherwise it covers just fine. I used the Rare minerals blemish cover to help with this and it did in fact help cover and clear the blemishes.

This is a great asset to the Bare Minerals product line. I put this on after I put on my warmth for an all-over dewy look. This stuff gives my skin a radiant glow, and I don't look shiny at all. It really makes my skin sparkle without overpowering my whole look. I put mineral veil on after this, and it still looks freshly applied. I love it. Fresh and young is how you'll look once you try it. Mineral make-up has taken the world by storm, and this is definitely one of the best lines of mineral-wear out there! Bare Escentuals, baby!

This is very good. Covers well, goes on smooth and lasts all day...can sleep in it too.

I use Clear Radiance as a blush (I know BE has a blush line as well). Ever since I found Everyday Minerals, I have been trying to stay away from BE as much as possible (Everyday Minerals is really natural and has fewer fillers than BE. It's also WAY more afforadable than BE). The only BE product I cannot abandon is Clear Radiance. I have fair skin, and it's usually very hard to find a subtle pink blush. Whenever I wear this color, people always comment on how healthy I look because of the color in my cheeks. [...] Good luck!
