They do not crease on me with UDPP under.The shadows last over 18 hours without creasing on me.

I finally bought bareMinerals after years of consideration yesterday hahah. I'm such a noob at this but do I need some advice from you ladies. Should I buy Mineral Veil? Do I need it or is it just like any translucent loose powder?

Any of you guys NC20/25 in MAC? What do you guys use? I got Fairly Light.

I honestly wouldn't recommend the mineral veil. I barely ever use it.. I only used it a couple times. But that's just my opinion.

Go to Qvc.com and click on beauty then Bare Escentuals. They give you a color comparison to look at which explaines each color for each type of skin tone. Makes it easy to find you're color. I have been using BE for 4 yrs and love it! I have about $2000 in they're product I have collected the last 4 yrs.Lol...I have oily acne proned skin and they're foundation is the only one I find that wont break me out even if I sleep in it. Covera great too andstarys on all day. Hope you enjoy it. Takes a few times to get use to minerals after using foundation for many yrs but it's great for your skin too, wont harm it at all. No chemicals. I hope this helps.

Much Respect

I use Mineral Veil to control my oily skin so it helps stop a lot of shine. Helped me a lot. Eveyone is different though with different skin issues so we have to use what works best for us.

Much Respect,

As in the color of foundation? I'd say Light through Medium would work well. The colors are forgiving

Medium Beige would be most suitable for you, or medium (which is more orange) whereas medium beige is more yellow toned.

Im a NW20 and i use the Medium/Beige and its just a tad light so i use MAC medium plus over it as a finisher. BE has done wonders for my skin and i definately recommend it!

 

[Cachica]

Medium and Medium Beige are just as dark /light but Medium is pinker whilst Med. Beige is more yellow.

Re: Bare Minerals (all)

Even though I'm switching to EDM for foundations I still love BE's Warmth all over face color and use it as my go to bronzer. Any other recs that would look good for my NC40 skin?? On the site I'm liking the true all and glee all, all over face colors.

Have any of you ladies tried these out yet?
