I'D. Bare Escentuals bareMinerals all over face color in Pure Radiance.  On the whole I like this product.  The thing to keep in mind is that a little goes a long way.  The first couple times I tried to use it, I was a little shoked at how over-made I looked in some lights.  It is considered a complexion enhancer.  it's fairly versatile- you can used it all over your face or just as a blush.  It blends well and gives you a nice, healthy, sun-kissed look.  However if you use too much you can look like you had a run-in with a glitter fairy.  It's a little pricey compared to some other brands that I've tried but I do prefer it over some of the cheaper brands.  I use it as a blush.  I'm fair skinned so a little goes a long way for me.  So even though it's a little costlier, it lasts forever.  I'd also recommend useing it over as ew layers as possible.  Ideally, if you can get away with just a light tinted moisturizer under the blush that works best.

I first tried Pure Radiance as a bonus in the starter kit I purchased.  I love it!  It gives my face a nice healthy glow.  I use it in combination with foundation, warmth, and mineral veil.  I feel like it has its own unique qualities- separate from warmth, mineral veil, and other products.   Sometimes I feel like it is a little too glittery or shimmery, but it depends on the light.  I sometimes use this in place of blush, because it gives me a nice pink color. I have always purchased this in a kit, so the price wasn't so bad.  It can be expensive if you just buy it separately.   You can use Pure Radiance all over your face or just in certain areas.  Depending on how you use it depends on how long it will last.  My container lasted me for over a year, but I used it lightly. I know that there are other Radiance products, and I'm not sure how Pure Radiance compares to them, but I have enjoyed using this product to add a little glow to my face.  I recommend this product.

I love pure Radiance by Bare Escentuals. The colors are beautiful and fun to wear. Just enough shimmer but not so much you look fake. The only slight down fall is that for some reason this does not last all day like the rest of the make up. I may not be applying properly or it is because you wear it on top of the other make up and not your skin. That being said, it does last a few hours and you may see some left at the end of the day but it is doubtful it will still shimmer. I simply dont care or mind because I love the colors so much. Being Fair skinned it is always a challenge wearing any kind of color anywhere on your face. I am happy I found pure radiance.

I bought myself a kit that included the Pure Radiance about a year ago. I have been using Bare Minerals for a few years but had mainly stuck to the three basics, foundation, mineral veil, and warmth. I am really fair so I never really liked using Warmth because it was a bit too much. The Pure Radiance is really perfect though, especially with my fair skin. It is like a really light blush that adds a small amount of color to highlight your skin.  I don't use it on a daily basis since I keep it really basic regularly, but when I use it when I go out or have a more special event, it makes me feel so pretty to be wearing it. I will definitely be buying more when I run out (although it will last a long time, as do most of the Bare Minerals products!). Using Pure Radiance in conjunction with the foundation and mineral veil will create a beautiful look and still be healthy for your skin. I recommend this product, definitely try it!

I got the Bare Minerals starter kit for fair skin. It comes with all the right stuff, but their product to give you that "sun-kissed glow" is Warmth. I have watched the CD, and used the tiniest amount, but seriously, it is **way** too dark for my skin. the worst part is that it's one of the last parts of the Bare Minerals foundation to put on, so if you screw up the Warmth, you either have to wash your face and start all over again, or even it out and walk around with a face that is strangely darker than the rest of your body. To me, it looks like too much self-tanner. They opened a Bare Minerals store in the local mall, and I went in there to see if I could get a more natural look than Warmth provides. The sales associate turned me on to Pure Radiance. I tried it on in the store, and I liked it. It does not turn my skin brown at all. It adds depth to the color of my face so I am not so pale, but it's a really natural look. The powder is brown, but it buffs out into a color that just bumps up the shade of my skin to what I consider "normal." Just like all of the other products in the line, it's barely there and can be returned if you don't like it. If you ordered the "very fair" or "fair" kit, I would suggest using Pure Radiance instead of the Warmth. It's more natural and not easy to screw up.
