Bare Escentuals

So I just got talked into buying the starter kit of Bare Escentuals, Bare Minerals... $60 Not what I would typically spend. My skin looks flawless with this stuff on though

I just got it too! I got the kit at Ulta. My skin looks great with it too! I went back and got some of the eye shadows and one of the liners- eye liners usually bother me, but when I use the powder/cream as an eyeliner, it works so well, and it doesn't bother my eyes.

Dh may be in trouble! I like this stuff a little too much!

Ooooh, I didn't even look at the eyeshadows. I KNEW I would be in trouble

Ooh you are making me want to do this! I need something to cover all this AGING. Ok, so where can I get it?

Do you have an Ulta or Sephora around? I know you can buy it on Ebay, but you wouldn't know what your colors are unless you tested it out...

I have been thinking about getting the bare essentials for myself. I just don't use make-up that often to spend the money. It sounds like it's worth it though.

I just got this stuff, off NBC.com and it was ok, its not the greatest, but I think it is the same stuff as sheer cover and that stuff is half the price.
so go to sheercover.com and compair

If you go to Ulta, watch for their 20% off coupons. I got my kit for 48% with the coupon. I think there was one in last sunday's paper. I'm going this weekend for more of the eye shadows and eye liners.

I use fairly light, and have to do 2 applications, but it totally covers up all the red areas I have on my cheeks, and I bought the bisque, and that covers up the veins under my eyes so well. I need to get another eye brush, because I'm using the eye shadow brush to put on the liner too, and it's a little hard. I love that you can put on the liner dry for that smuged look (which is what I do anyway) or you can put it on wet for a sharper line.

I love their eyeshadows but the foundation doesn't work for me.

OK, I tried applying it myself yesterday and it didn't look as good as the girl in the store got it to look. I think I put on too little, but was afraid of going overboard. I can see this is going to take some getting used to!


One thing I can tell you though is that the mineral veil is essential - otherwise I felt oily and shiny still.

No, I don't have any of those places around me

I wanted to try that but I went for Loreal Bare Naturale, its also the mineral based and its workign well for me. Does take some getting used to gettingt he right ammount, but I love how it covers when I have red spots. Its also has SPF 19 built in.
