Finally the right color for me.
Color: 01 Fair
I am very pale complected, and had tried several other powder foundations before trying this one. FINALLY, it was the right color for me. It provides good coverage, feels very light on my face, and I love it. It cost a little more, but I look like me. Others made me look a little orange. I'm sticking with this one. ... show more

Love the matte powder but the shades differ from the original
Color: 02 Fair Ivory
I started using bare minerals after a tiktok video that impressed me. I started out with the 02 fair ivory original. The shade matched perfectly and was light weight, covered my redness but gave my skin a natural look instead of a heavy masked look which I didn't want. I'm 41 and have mature skin so less looks better on me. The only thing was at work towards the end of my shift the bare minerals would wear off and look shinny or oily from sweating. So I decided to try the bare minerals powder matte. I love this powder. It has done wonders and does seem to last through my whole shift keeping the shine down. However, the first time I purchased the matte, I bought the same shade I used in the original, 02 fair ivory. It was too dark and looked kinda yellow on my face. Amazon did let me return it so I went a shade lighter and got 01 fair, matte. It seems to match closer to the 02 fair ivory original. I did add a couple pictures so you can kinda see the difference in the shades from just looking. ... show more

Beautiful soft-matte finish that keeps my serum foundation intact
Color: 21 Neutral Tan
I know this is technically a powder foundation, but my favorite way to use it is as a setting and finishing powder over my serum foundation. My nose is usually the first area to become oily or start separating, and this keeps everything intact without requiring layers of setting spray. I apply a light amount, concentrating mostly around my nose, pores, and T-zone. It seems to mesh with the foundation rather than sitting visibly on top of it. The finish is softly matte and polished, but it still looks like skin—not dry, chalky, or excessively powdered. It also gives my base a little extra coverage and makes the overall finish look smoother. The biggest compliment is that people actually notice my makeup when I wear this combination and tell me how beautiful my skin looks. It improves the wear of lighter serum foundations without taking away their natural finish. A light hand is best because it is a foundation powder rather than a completely translucent setting powder, but used correctly, the result is gorgeous. This has become one of my favorite ways to set my makeup ... show more

I had to buy 3 of these to get the right color.
Color: 02 Fair Ivory
I'd suggest getting color matched at an Ulta or the mall because the names of the colors have changed. I thought I could get away with a slight warm (03 I think) because its summer but it was way too yellow and I ended up just going with the lightest color available. I actually use less now that I've gone with the lighter color which is the point of using mineral foundation anyways. They DO NOT list their colors from lightest to darkest, there are variants between the cools, neutrals and warms that can be drastically darker even tho it's a lower number, or drastically lighter even tho it's a higher number. It'd be great if they sold the starter kits with 3 or so shades so you could take a guess and at least get one that matches without having to guess you're shade online. If you don't know your color ahead of time I strongly encourage you to get color matched in store until they have a more cohesive color line up. Other than that, this is the mineral makeup I have loved and used for over 15 years. I do have to touch up every few hours because I have oily skin, even tho I use acne medication. If I scratch or rub my face I just dab a little where it's missing and put another layer of mineral Veil on top. One of the big benefits of this makeup is that you can touch it up easily and flawlessly without having to take everything off and start over. If you sweat a lot or have very oily skin you know how big of a deal that is and is basically a make or break for me because most other foundations if I smudge it I basically have to take off my entire face of foundation and start over because there's no possible way to reapply or touch up one spot. Also if you go a shade lighter as opposed to darker and don't over apply you can really make it look like you're wearing nothing at all. If you feel like you have to use a lot more than instructed you probably aren't using the right shade. When I was using a shade that was slightly too yellow I felt like I have to use a ton, but once I found a better match I barely had to use any. I start around my eyes and nose and once I'm happy with the coverage there I blend it out work what's left on the brush. I've used tons of other foundations and this is still my favorite. It's also the only foundation that doesn't make me break out, even if I forget to wash it off. ... show more

Great coverage. Natural.
Color: 01 Fair
I love this product, it covers especially well. They say it is so natural, you can literally sleep in it. Finish is sublime, application with a brush is sufficient. I know my skin feels great when I wear it, but it is expensive.

My most complimented base
Color: 21 Neutral Tan
I get the most compliments whenever I wear this foundation. I was looking for an alternative to a full coverage, liquid foundation - this is perfect! I found the color match to be quite seamless for my complexion (21 Neutral Tan). I would say this is a buildable coverage, you can use this or add it to top your concealer. The application is easy, I would recommend using the brush that is designed for the product or a medium sized fluffy brush. A little can go a long way! It starts as a powder, but I would say that it melts into your skin without exposing any texture on your face. If you're combo/oily skin, this will be your favorite product in the summer. If you have a dry skin, make sure you're skin is moisturized! The foundation has the ability to last all day if you set it, I've found it pairs well with a mattifying setting spray. ... show more

This is my go to powder foundation. Repeat customer.
Color: Medium Beige 12
I have been a repeat customer for years. This is my go to powder foundation. It is light and allows you to build the amount of coverage you want. I personally use the Bare Minerals Tinted Moisturizer and then put this on top. The perfect amount of coverage for me. It’s a quality product that’s fragrance free. You can order it on the Bare Minerals website and it redirects you to Amazon for quick delivery. That way I know I’m getting the real product and not a knock off. ... show more

Flawless Matte Finish with Weightless Coverage
Color: Golden Medium 14
This is the only product I will put on my face. This mineral powder foundation absorbs excess oil effortlessly, reducing mid-day shine beautifully while feeling weightless on sensitive skin. It builds smoothly from sheer to full coverage without looking cakey or heavy, and the added SPF 15 provides great daily protection. I don't feel like it moisturizes at all, but it also isn't the stuff that just sits on the skin stealing all your moisture. It has a subtle, nice smell, and lasts a long time. ... show more
