Bare Escentuals Bare Minerals Foundation — 

Bare Escentuals is not for me.  I know many, many people love this makeup line, but I'm not one of them.  Bare Escentuals made my lines and wrinkles look a milion times worse and large pores look like craters on the moon!  It's got too much shimmer for me and doesn't look 'dewy', it looks weird.  This line of mineral makeup also makes my skin itch so bad I want to claw my face off!  Especially when it gets warm and I start to perspire.  Then there's the price, it's a very expensive makeup.  There are a couple of pro's.  Color matching is pretty easy and it doesn't leave a line of demarkation and has a built in spf.  But I've found other, much less expensive mineral makeup brands that I like better and don't make my skin look worse when I put it on.  This is one makeup that you definately have to try and see if it's for you or not...  Unfortunately, it's not readily available, so you have to find a store that carries it if you want to try it before you make a purchase.
