WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

  • I use medium beige original loose foundation powder. Will I want the light or medium primer cream color? Will medium be too dark?

    Asked by: amandaamanda
    Hi amandaamanda, You can wear either shade depending on if you prefer your skin a little lighter or darker, but we suggest trying Light first!

    Is this product non comedogenic? 

    Asked by: Deanna97
    Hi Deanna97, Our Prime Time BB Primer Cream Daily Defense does not claim to be non-comedogenic. As an alternative, we suggest our Complexion Rescue Defense Radiant Protective Veil, a non-comedogenic all-in-one lightweight hydrating veil which protects the skin from indoor and outdoor light damage, evens skin tone, and adds radiance: https://www.bareminerals.com/makeup/face/all-face/complexion-rescue-defense-radiant-protective-veil/US86003.html

    Can the prime time spf 30 be used under the tinted moisturizer?  I want a good spf face sunscreen for when I go to the beach in addition to my everyday being outside in Arizona at the pool. 

    Asked by: Jake121
    Hi Jake121, Yes we love our Prime Time BB Primer Cream Daily Defense alone or under another foundation for ensuring you have SPF coverage! We also like our Complexion Rescue Defense Radiant Protective Veil, which also has SPF 30 protection.
