5 out of 5 stars THE BEST FOUNDATION EVER!!   March 6, 2010
Kathy A. Pierce
This is the best foundation I have ever tried. It covers your face fantastically without that oily liquid foundation feal. I will NEVER use liquid foundation ever again. This product will not clog your pores and it's ok if you forget to wash your face before bedtime. You will not break out with zits!


1 out of 5 stars NOT for normal and oily skin types. NOT for dry either . . .   February 26, 2010

Are you going to expose your face to air? Get ready for the oxidation of this product. Lovely look, I must say!

Got oily skin? Or a nose that gets a little shiny later in the day or in warmer weather? Get ready for a disgusting meltdown. As this "powder" combines with your natural oils it turns into a liquid foundation (This product is exactly that, minus the liquid. It contains much of the same ingredients liquid foundations use to color their products.) Don't believe me? Take a look at the ingredients for yourself.

Main ingredient of Bare Ecentuals: Bismuth Oxychloride

Where does bismuth oxychloride come from?

Bismuth oxychloride is not an ingredient you find very often in natural circumstances. It is a by-product of copper and lead refining and it can be found on the periodic table too. What may surprise you is that bismuth oxychloride resembles arsenic and antimony chemically. It is also considered a heavy metal. Cosmetically, bismuth oxychloride is considered a pearlizing agent and produces a high shine. In addition, when applied to the skin as a foundation, bismuth oxychloride often has an unnatural glowy finish. Bismuth oxychloride also has a very soft, almost slippery feel. The other form of this ingredient (Bismuth subsalicylate) is nothing less than, yes, you guessed it- Pepto-Bismol!


Mica and iron oxides- solely used for coloring the foundation to fit the needs of your undertones and shade.

Titanium dioxide, is the naturally occurring oxide of titanium. When used as a pigment, it is called titanium white, Pigment White 6, or CI 77891. It is noteworthy for its wide range of applications, from paint to sunscreen to food colouring, for which it was given E number E171.

Terrible product. I have not only cosmetic experience with this product but scientific, as well. Ladies, this stuff looks great if you're doing a quick photoshoot or a 30 minute speed date. Otherwise, spend your money on NARS or Laura Mercier.




2 out of 5 stars Not so amazing   February 18, 2010

I was so excited to find a makeup that would cover completely without breaking me out. I don't have oily skin, but most makeups give me the occassional breakout anyway. This makeup didn't cover half as well as I had hoped. In fact, I've bought wet 'n wild makeup that has done better. To top it off, the breakouts came anyway.

The Bare Escentuals products don't work for me. Yes, the makeup stayed on all day but was cakey and it felt like it was a pore clogger. I didn't like the way it is dispensed, makes a mess when transferred to the cap and whirled around. Also, it is very expensive. MAC products are by far better.


3 out of 5 stars Not bad   February 3, 2010
M. Baglione (Nutley, NJ United States)
This makeup does not offer a lot of coverage. put too much on and its EXTREMELY visible and looks cakey. Does brighten skin up, however, if you have naturally clear skin. Should not be used with dry skin because it will enhance this even if you moisturize

What Happens When I Get the Blue Veins Removed From My Legs

These are my legs in a self-portrait taken on my recent vacation to Tulum, Mexico. I have worked with David Edwards, my personal trainer at the Rockefeller Center New York Sports Club twice a week for more than two years so I feel I've earned these legs and from the front they look great, but f...



Help! How Do I Pick the Right Foundation?

I remember my drugstore beauty days when I stood in the drugstore aisle trying to figure out my best foundation bet by holding up the bottle to my face. I inevitably picked the wrong shade and walked around with the telltale line at the jaw. These days, we're lucky most department and drugstore...



How Much Skincare is Too Much?

Every night I use Pond's cold cream to cleanse my skin. I follow the cleansing with moisturizer before applying eye cream and Retin-A. As you may know by now, I'm convinced Retin-A will be my secret to looking 60 when I'm really 70. Once every couple weeks I may treat myself to a microdermabrasi...



Rancho La Puerta's Famous Guacamole Recipe (Made With Peas!)

Last week I wrote about my stay at Rancho La Puerta spa in Baja, Mexico, where I exercised all week, got massages and facials and fell in love with a healthy guacamole recipe made with avocados and peas.

People wrote to me asking for more information, so I called up the Ranch's corporate offices...



How to Cover Up Acne Scars

I recently got a heartbreaking email from a young woman about to go off to college and struggling with acne scars. The scars, she wrote, have been a huge blow to the self-confidence she once had. She wanted to know if I had any makeup tricks for covering up the scars and she was worried that her ...

Ointment

(soothing, healing salve for cold sores, rashes and burns)

3 ounces fresh calendula herb
5 to 6 ounces beeswax
1 quart almond oil

Mix the calendula and almond oil and heat overnight at 175°F or medium heat. Use a crockpot if you have one. Strain the oil and place over heat. Stir the beeswax into it. When the mixture melts to a thick, paste-like consistency, pour into tins or jars. To store, keep containers tightly covered.
