I like the bareMinerals matte powder foundation but I like their loose powder a little more. The shade was great and it matched my skin well, the coverage was great as well, I just feel like it didn’t blend as well as the loose powder.

Not as good as the loose powder matte
I liked the idea of the pressed powder less messy than the original loose powder formula, and the product applies well. However, I found that the oil control is majorly lacking, as I now look greasy after only an hour or so. The shade also seems darker than their loose powder in the similar lighter shade.

Love it on my maturing skin.
Great coverage for my maturing skin. Doesn’t leave my face looking dry & flaky. Gives my face a fresh made up look all the time. Doesn’t transfer terribly.

really good :)
i like this foundation a lot. i switched to it from a sephora-branded powder foundation. i hit pan on my first one, and just restocked. it's really fast/easy to apply (i personally use a sephora "pro powder brush #50" which was recommended to me by a store associate) and looks decent, i think. i put on liquid concealer underneath the foundation, and over the foundation i only use powder products. i'm not sure i would call this foundation "high coverage" by any means (my moles don't go anywhere, haha) but it definitely evens my skintone and covers any redness, which are my priorities!

Love it
I used to use bare minerals in high school, so I was super excited to see that there was a pressed powder. Super lightweight feeling on your skin, has light coverage but can build to medium coverage, and it doesn’t break me out. Best part? NO TALC!!

Didn’t like it.
I strongly didn’t like this powder foundation, as it looked terrible when I tried to blend it on my skin. I used it like twice and I’m so disappointed. I won’t be purchasing this product again.

Great for warmer days.
Follow the directions for wetting the sponge if you are going for full coverage and it works well. Feels like skin & wears well. I use this on hot days because I don’t like the way liquid foundation can make my skin feel.

I decided to try this to minimize my time with foundation and powder but this formula was a little difficult to blend onto the skin, even with a powder foundation brush. I could visibly see it on my skin

Perfect for maturing skin
This is the only foundation that stays in place for my 10. 1/2 hour work shift. Looks very natural and never cakey. Perfect for maturing skin. I absolutely love it.
