Bare Minerals Makeup: A Natural Alternative?

Bare Minerals is one of the most popular mineral makeup brands.  From Bare Escentuals, it claims to be 100% free from preservatives, oils and fragrances. It’s definitely got a lot of people talking about this new approach to makeup. But is everyone happy with the results? Not exactly. Let’s have a look at what some are saying.

Many Bare Minerals makeup reviews are full of positive endorsements from women who have tried it and found that it has given the results they want. Typically, users find that it hides imperfections and gives smooth, natural-looking  skin. But not everyone thinks it is easy to apply. This is because some women find that they need to blend two different foundation tones to match their skin, and this takes extra time and care. It’s certainly not as simple as applying a liquid foundation. But the results can be very good.

The company claims that its product is excellent for concealing imperfections like acne and sunspots, and that it has protective and calming properties for the skin. However, a  careful look at the reviews will uncover a minority of women who disagree, and they seem to be those who already have sensitive or dry skin. There are may reports of skin irritation from those with these skin types.  It’s possible that Bare Minerals is not ideal for these women who may benefit more from a liquid foundation.

As with any makeup product, in the end you need to test it for yourself. Bare Minerals is definitely an exciting range which has brought the desired results for many people, but be aware of the full picture when you make a decision. Bare Escentuals makes a trial pack available at their department store counters, and the range is also available through a number of reputable internet sellers, so why not take the plunge and decide for yourself?
