I bought this kit b/c I wanted everything in it. I'm glad I did b/c I use everything I got. The foundations are smaller then the single regular ones, but it's worth getting this kit if it's your first time using the product. I love mine and I'll never use any other foundation.

Thanks for all the replies!
Yeah I think I'm going to go ahead and get the kit. I can't see paying more and buying the full size when I don't even know if I'll like the product or not. And I don't have any face brushes, so even if I end up not liking the foundation, I'll still have brushes I can use-- so it won't be a total waste of money.
Although... does anyone know if they sell those kits in Sephora stores? I was just going to buy it online, but there IS a Sephora store sort of near me... so if I can go in and test out the shades I'd feel much better about buying it.

I have acne and use it. I've recently broken out from being sick and getting my period, but when my skin is normal bare minerals covers my acne completly and doesn't make me break out anymore. My skin looks flawless with bare minerals even tho it isn't.

thats interesting you say that. I'm oily in my T-zone, but in the winter especially the rest of my face gets dry and the BE makes it really dry too. it took a while to make the connection that maybe moisturizer would help (I was worried with the oily parts of my face) but then I got an oil free moisturizer. Clinique oil-free moisturizing gel and BE are now the only way i'll do my face

My take on BE.
I use to own TONS of their eyeshadow but swapped it all away or gave it away. They have really pretty colors but I had a hard time getting them to stay put. This was before I was introduced to MAC paints and before UD came out with their primer potion.
If I didn't have so much e/s now I would for sure get more BE.
As for their foundation. I used it years ago and I thought that the bismuth was breaking me out but now I am rethinking it. I have been using Aromaleigh and loving it but sometimes it just looks too matte. I have started to notice that it doesn't really cover like BE did. So I took the jump and bought some more BE. Once I give it a while to see how it is doing I will give an update. I am hoping it will not break me out because I always got so many compliments when I wore it.

I just looked at the Aromaleigh website. How are there blushes and stuff? I will stick to BE foundation, but I love blush and would try Aromaleigh's.

I've only tried one cream and one powder. I really like them both. The cream is very nice. Not greasy at all.
