I have a foundation again!
Color: 08 Light
Size: 0.28 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I am absolutely amazed by this powder foundation. I will admit I have always been skeptical about powder consistency makeup and never used any of it, until I recently tried the bare minerals powder concealer and absolutely fell in love with it. That prompted me to try this foundation too. I’ve been u
sing bare minerals complexion rescue tinted moisturizer and loved it always but since the powder concealer was so amazing, I figured let me try the foundation as well. I used it today for the first time and it’s amazing. I don’t even understand how it does what it does but it works. I’m 49 and I have wrinkles especially around my eyes, because I have always had under eyes bags (hence the concealer) . My skin is decent. I use Tretinoin regularly but it is the skin of a 49 yo woman going through all kinds of changes iykyk! It’s been years since I’ve used foundation because they simply didn’t work for me anymore. Looked worse, rather than better(hence the tinted moisturizer) or felt way too heavy on my skin, especially during long and humid Houston summers. This does! When applied with a fluffy brush, it just somehow melts into the skin and provides a very good amount of coverage without being obvious. It doesn’t settle or crease (I did use a setting spray) . It is super easy to apply. Even for someone like me who used a powder foundation for the first time ever. A little goes a long way, and you do need to make sure the brush picks it up fully. I put a little bit of it into the lid, twirl the brush around, until everything is picked up, tap the access off and just buffed it onto my skin. Effortless. And completely mess free! I was feeling very brave (or crazy lol) and applied it today while wearing a white silk top. Not a speck of it was on the top, not even at the neckline. That alone makes this product a keeper! Color match is great. I use cashew in tinted moisturizer and some online research told me that my shade in this foundation is 08 Light. It was right. I don’t want full coverage, but I do think this is buildable if buffed in well. My skin is combo and it is not sensitive so I can’t speak to that aspect of it. Possibly the biggest win for me is that I don’t feel it on my skin. Houston is very hot and humid right now and for 6 months out of the year. This feels like wearing nothing at all. Because a little bit goes a long way, the container will last a very long time which makes it a very good value for the money imo. I highly recommend this especially for those of us who are having trouble finding a liquid foundation that works for, uhmmm mature skin impacted by everything that perimenopause brings with it, again, iykyk! Fyi. I applied the sunscreen on top of my regular skincare products, then applied powder concealer by the same brand and then the foundation. It all jived very well.

Natural, flawless base. I love!
Color: 03 Fairly Light
Size: 0.28 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this as a light everyday base, and it gives a soft, natural finish without looking heavy or overly matte. It evens out redness and minor discoloration well, but I get the best result when I apply a small amount at a time and build only where I need more coverage. It does not completel
y cover darker under-eye circles or more noticeable blemishes on its own, so I still prefer concealer in those areas. I also recommend using a denser brush and buffing it in rather than sweeping it on, especially if you have dry patches. Overall, this is a great option for someone who wants a quick, breathable-looking base rather than full glam coverage.

Worth the investment
Color: 16 Golden Nude
Size: 0.28 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I felt this was expensive…for me. I bought it with my fingers crossed. I’ve ended up being very pleased. It stays on even under very hot, humid weather without looking shiny or sticky. It remains looking matte, just as when first applied. I like very natural looking makeup, so with that in mind it co
vers my sunspots and blends perfectly. I can feel it on my face. Not all people will understand that. Only those who are accustom to a natural, light coverage look. It stays on extremely well and is very long lasting. A little bit goes a long way. The finish is natural, not at all noticeable. I use this with no other makeup and it looks fabulous. I think having the correct makeup brush and knowing how to apply it is important. I’m very pleased with this product and will buy it as my skin color changes with the seasons. It’s worth the investment.

Best ever
Color: 01 Fair
Size: 0.28 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Best and only makeup for my entire life. Doesn't clog pores like liquids, doesn't look fake, rubs in, boosts my confidence... I would be their spokesperson if I could. BareMinerals is magic in a jar. Thank you for showing the world I can be beautiful

Lightweight, natural coverage and great for everyday use
Color: 13 Golden Beige
Size: 0.28 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this bareMinerals Original Powder Foundation for a while now, and it honestly exceeded my expectations. It gives a very natural finish—your skin still looks like skin, just more even and polished. What I like the most is how lightweight it feels. It doesn’t feel heavy or cakey at all,
even after a few hours of wear. It’s perfect for everyday makeup, especially if you don’t like liquid foundations. Coverage is buildable. You can keep it light for a natural look or layer it a bit more in areas where you need extra coverage. It also blends really easily with a brush. One thing to keep in mind is that it can get a little messy when opening the jar (since it’s loose powder), so you have to be careful when using it. Also, if you have very dry skin, you might want to moisturize well before applying. Pros: • Very natural finish • Lightweight and breathable • Buildable coverage • Good for sensitive skin Cons: • Can be messy to use • May emphasize dryness if skin isn’t prepped well Overall, I really like this foundation and would definitely repurchase. It’s a great option if you want something quick, natural, and comfortable for daily use.
