February 15th, 2007
Price: $25
12 Colors to Choose from.
Made of only pure, crushed minerals from the earth, i.d. bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation looks like a powder, feels like a cream and buffs on like silk, giving skin a natural luminosity, and feels as if you are not wearing any makeup at all. The coverage is flawless, free of preservatives, talc, oil, waxes, fragrances, and other chemicals that can irritate skin and cause breakouts.
To use: For flawless coverage, apply i.d bareMinerals Foundation following the three simple steps below:
1.SWIRL a small amount of bareMinerals in the lid with the Flawless Application Face Brush into the lid until all the bareMinerals are tucked into the bristles.
2. TAP away excess. There should be no visible bareMinerals on the outside of the brush.
3. BUFF the bareMinerals into the skin in a circular motion, starting on the outside of your face near your cheekbone, swirling as you go. Buff around your face and then approach your forehead, cheeks, and nose. Buff, buff, buff until you are satisfied with the coverage.
Remember less is more when applying i.d. bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation.
I was ecstatic when I first discovered this line of cosmetics: all natural-great coverage-and GOOD for your skin?!?! I was like Homer Simpson- how much and give it to me!! hehehe…This is the first MMU I have ever used and I can honestly say it did wonders for my complextion. Ever since I statred using their products my skin hasn’t broke out once. It also gives me a nice even coverage with a subtle natural look. I’ve been using this for a year and I am still love it. It doesn’t clog my skin like other foundations. If you have pretty uneven, splotchy skin or other imperfections this product will NOT give you great coverage. It provides more coverage than powder but not much, so if you are looking for that flawless look I would NOT recommend this. Looks very natural and I’ve been told several times that my skin looks fresh and glowing. Never heard that before! Wears well throughout the day and doesn’t get orange-y on my oily face. My suggestions are: Don’t overdo it ot you’ll just end up looking chalky, swirl/buff your face thoroughly, and clean your brushes often.
