bare minerals


Question Posted Friday December 21 2007, 5:35 pm

i can never find makeup that makes my skin look nice.
i have acne (not bad) just a few pimples here and there and uneven texture + tone (it's especially dry in some spots to the point where when i put a bunch of moisturizer on my makeup still flakes but thats just in the winter) at the moment i use superstay silky and milani minerals from the drugstore, neither of which are too useful.

my friend uses bare minerals and says it works really good but she doesn't have any skin problems so idk.
i want something that will make my skin look smooth and nice without wasting money.

so:
1. is bare minerals good for acne prone skin
2. will it last throughout the day
3. will it work good on dry skin
4. is it worth the money

thankss<3

I have kinda bad acne. && I use this make up from wal mart, its called true natural. Its 13$ but I love it. Its almost like bare minerals. Its in the same container, and its minerals. Its really good! But you have to make sure you get your sick tone, if not it looks weird after you put it on. If you wanna try that at first, and like it, then maybe try getting bare minerals, bc Im sure it works a lot better. Or just stay with true natural. I hope I helped<3

For my skin, I use Proactiv and it works really well, so you can start with that. With your makeup, you can try a Target or a Wal Mart. They usually have pretty good stuff.
Hope I helped!

Bare minerals is expensive. Too expensive.
I've used it, and it's nice for acne prone skin, but you should really really try everyday minerals

It's inexpensive, and you can find great deals on kits that have concealer, foundation, minerals veils, blushes etc;

I have this and it works just as well, if not better than bare minerals. Bare minerals tends to make my face itchy. :/

Bare Minerals is worth the money. It comes with a moisturizer to prepare your skin. I had very bad skin with various break outs, dry flaky skin and scars. If you buy the set, I think it's $70. You get 2 foundations, a bronzer type thing, mineral veil, concealer/application and kabuki brush. it comes along with a CD. I got mine at Sephora's so maybe it could've changed.

It gives you great coverage and makes your skin look smooth. People said that their skin has improved by using it. My skin become less dry and had more a glow instead of that blemish look after a few weeks of use. It does last through the day. It comes off easily with water. I'm sure you can find before and after pictures of people wearing it.

Look under "Your Stories" and click Skin Condition. Click the drop down menu and choose.. whatever applies to you.

i use bare minerals and I break out so bad sometimes. I love it so much, and i would never go back to regular store brand makeup. It lasts so long, and even though it is expensive, you dont have to use much to cover blemishes. It looks so natural, and light. If you get the starter kit, it comes with barevitimins which is a moisturizer that helps with dry skin. I wouldn't recommend anything else.
