    Absolutely Obssessed!!!

    Soooo...here's the thing, I don't usually fall head over heels for foundation, but this one, this is the holy grail I didn't even realize I had been searching for my whole life. BareMinerals Original Matte Loose Powder Foundation is magic in a container.

    The coverage is *flawless* without ever feeling heavy. It also manages to blur, smooth, AND mattify all at once. It absolutely makes my skin look incredible. I also *LOVE* that this foundation is clean, breathable mineral makeup with 15 SPF...that's a win for my face and my conscience.

    It's also incredibly light weight, I often even forget I am wearing foundation. I've never dealt with cakiness, no settling into fine lines, and it keeps my skin free of shine and oil throughout the day.

    I cannot go back to wearing any other foundation after using bareMinerals, it looks natural, feels weightless, and improves my skin while wearing it. This is my one and only!

    Love the matte but the color doesn’t work

    This would be perfect if I had matched my skin tone. I’ll try again to find my best color. This one made me look jaundiced.
