Very Unhappy
I just purchased this instead of my usual original loose powder as wanted to try it out. Tried it this morning and was shocked to find it’s a completely different shade to the Fairly Medium Original Loose powder - why on earth would you use the same name for a product that is a completely different colour?? I did my whole face and nearly stepped out the door completely orange - luckily I checked in a couple of different lightings before leaving the house. Am really disappointed to have wasted this money on a product I won’t be able to use.

Great Match for My Skin
When Alima Pure went out of business, I had to find a replacement matte powder foundation before my supply ran out. Bare Minerals' website was helpful in finding a good match to my skin tone. I was able to do it in two tries. The return process was not complicated--also helpful.

This lightweight, talc-free foundation delivers buildable sheer-to-full coverage with a matte finish and all-day wear.

Will this foundation clog pores or cause breakouts?

No—it's non-comedogenic, non-acnegenic, and won’t clog pores or settle into fine lines.

Does it have SPF protection?

Yes, it provides broad-spectrum SPF 15 with mineral sunscreens Titanium Dioxide (15%) and Zinc Oxide (5%).

How do I apply ORIGINAL MATTE for best results?

Swirl a small amount in the cap with the Beautiful Finish Foundation Brush, tap off excess, then buff in circular motions; repeat to build coverage.
