I bought the Bare Essentuals kit for my skin tone and in it came 2 of the small size of the basic "foundation". I don't need one of them. Please realize that it has been opened and I used it a few times to see which foundation worked best for me. Anyway, if someone would like a slightly used container of "Beige", I would be glad to send it their way.

Oh, when I used it, I always shook the stuff into the lid and used what was in the lid, so the remaining portion was never touched by my brush.

I would love to try it...almost ordered it one time and didn't end up doing it. I don't wear foundation often and it just sounds more like something I would use. Let me know what you would like to swap!!!

Ladies you will have to tell me if you like using Bare Essentuals. I thought about getting it once because I hate icky feeling makeup.

Remember what you now have was once among the things only hoped for.

My mom has been using Bare Essentuals for the last 3 months and swears by it...she used to be a tried and true Estee Lauder kind of gal...but she threw away all her foundation, eye shadow, blush, etc. She absolutely loves it and keeps trying to get me to buy it. She swears you can't feel it and it doesn't rub off....I succumb to my cousin's selling tactics for Mary Kay (it's really just to support her and help her earn extra money for her wedding next year!)

Bare Essentuals is pretty good but I like the stuff from www.aromaleigh.com better. BE seems to have too much mica for me is the only reason I didn't repurchase it. Mineral makeup is the only way to go though if you're going to wear any at all.

Aunt Jenny, if you'll send me an email with your mailing address, I'll get this on it's way to you this Saturday at the latest. I'll copy the page of the directions of how you apply it, too.

I love their make-up, and I was not only a long-time user but a consultant (no parties, just sold to friends and to get the discount) of another product, so for me to switch was a big deal.

Jenny, I wear it and love it. I'd always been a mascarra and lip gloss was wasy made up kind of gal until BE. It doesn't even feel like you're wearing anything. I hope you like it! What a generous gift for Patti to share!

Here's a website that offers organic mineral makeup -- started by a Portland gal in her home. The prices are great too. She encourages people to buy samples first. I haven't tried it yet but am ordering soon.

I just started using Mineral makeup this past year. I love the way it covers up imperfections and doesn't rub off.
I get mine from www.jlynnecosmetics.com
Jess has a whole bunch of samples available so that you can pick the right shade.

I just began using Bare Minerals. I have VERY sensative skin and this make up does not bother me at all. I am 60 yr. old and I felt like it was for younger skins. I was wrong....I just ordered some eye-shadow. They look very light and natural.
