Bare Minerals Matte Foundation Review. If you're the type of girl who has oily skin then you'll love the new Bare Minerals Matte Foundation. The matte foundation is just now making it's debut and if you're looking for a product to matte out your skin this may be the solution you're searching for. Many Beauty stores are giving out samples and I recently received one from Sephora. I also know that Ulta is giving out some as well.
What Bare Esscentuals Says It Does: Matte SPF 15 Foundation absorbs excess oil and eliminates shine without drying your skin. It dramatically improves the appearance of your skin through the clinically proven power of RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex, which minimizes pores and promotes cell turnover for fresher, smoother skin, while protecting your skin from environmental damage. This groundbreaking formula is made with only the purest, highest-quality ingredients and is free of harsh chemicals and preservatives.
What I Say It Does: On a daily basis I wear Bare Minerals foundation and because I'm a oily girl in the summer I was really looking forward to trying this. You apply it the same way you normally would with the bare minerals foundation swirl, tap, and buff, and it applies easily. I also love how this formula has a lock component so it's less messy then than original. There's also no bismuth so there's less shine to the product. The shades are a bit off so you may have to play around with other shades closer to your original shades if you're a regular BE girl. The look of the foundation on my skin looks flawless, and radiant and even better than the original. The only downside is that it doesn't cover as well so you may need to use more product. The matte does last a while alot longer than the original but touch ups with mineral veil is done very easily. Overall love the new matte foundation and if you're a oily girl be sure to give it a try.
