My daughter uses this....I bought her the kit and she loves it. My only complaint is powder everywhere! I use a mineral makeup that is pressed....and they don't make it or I would probably switch!

I LOVE B.E but I would like to see them make a MATTE "get started" kit. I did not like the Original minerals Get started kit at all.. I had to exchange for new shades 3 TIMES AND I had a "Color Match" done each time!!! They need some brown chicks in there to do "color matching" bcuz as a native amer chick one girl matched me too light and the other WAY too dark. The 3rd time I picked the color myself WITHOUT putting it on my skin and nailed it on the head. ANYWAY-- I didnt like the original b.e... it made me too dewy and my skin is already oily and did not cover like it claimed to. I would give it 5 stars if they had a small sample size bisque in the package and made one in matte. otherwise.. b.e. makes osme good stuff :)

I try because of the commercial on tv. The product arrived and I can't wait to try it. I did like it for a few days but I got a major breakout. I clean and dry the brushes but I still have breakout. I decide to stop using this and see if it was the cause of my breakout. It takes me a good two week to get my skin under control. I decide to go back and use it. A few days later I was breaking out again. I stop using after that. It might work for other people skin but not for me. It a messy and the powder do goes everywhere. The coverage is great and the color match is good.

I loved Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Get Started Kit. I loved the way it felt on my skin. It was not heavy and the colors matched great. The only thing I did not like was the price. I could not justify spending the extra money on Bare Escentuals over Physicians Formula.

This didn't sit well with my skin I heard it was the bismuth oxychloride but my skin is uber sensitive and it just made me all itchy and I didn't like it. That said, the mineral veil alone is worth the investment. Also their soft focus powders are just beautiful. Also I hear they have reformulated so maybe I might give it another shot. However what didn't work for me, may work for you so its still worth a try.

Loved how it looked and made my face feel but made me break out.

i didn't try the starter kit but but i tryed the foundation but could't find the right color for my skin tone. and personally i really don't care for the loose powder, the PUR minerals is much bettter and beter matching colors for me

The mineral powder concept is great but unfortunately it isn't for everyone. I have heard people raving about it for forever and so I tried it several times thinking I was doing something wrong. There must be something in it that my skin is sensitive to because whenever I use it it breaks my skin out! I loved the swirl, tap application and the lightness of the foundation but it's just not a fit for my skin type. You also have to watch how much you apply because even though it's light it does have a yellow tone to it. Wanted to like Bare Minerals but it didn't like me.

I really didn't care for bare minerals. It seemed like it didn't cover enough for me and made my face itch.

I did not like the Bare Escentuals makeup. Because it was powder, my skin became very dry and the makeup came off easily because my skin became flaky.

Not for me. The foundation is not long wear. It settles in my pores, fine lines and acne scars. I wanted to love this foundation but for someone with oily, acne prone skin, it does not offer the best coverage or stand up to the oils that my face produces my mid-day.

I've used this and I wasn't impressed. My skin felt dry and the bronzer was way to dark and made me look a bit dirty. I wouldn't buy it again.

i do not like the bare minerals products. there products do not work very well. the colors dont look as good on the skin as they do in the pakage. its not just one color its all of them. many of the colors iv used in other products and they look fine on me but bare minerals just look bad. also i do not like there advertiseing online. anytime iv been on a website and they had an advertisement come up my computer locks up then after it comes back i get a warning from my virus thing that it protected me from some malware. it happens every time one of bare minerals ads come up to. i can be on the same site otherwise and never get that message and when i use my spybot search in destroy nothing but when a bare minerals add comes up i get it. i do not trust them anymore

Did not care for this prodcuct. It did not provide the coverage I was looking for. Also the colors are too light.

When I was 20, this was something I used. MESSY, yes. Now that I am older, powdered products like these (mineral or not) just look terrible and gross on my face. I tried going back to Bare Minerals but can't. Not a good product for me.
