MINERAL FOUNDATION
COST: Prices may vary. Full jar is $18.00
MEETS EXPECTATIONS: 4 out of 5
OVERALL: 4 out of 5
WOULD I PURCHASE AGAIN? Yes.
PROS:
• Very lightweight
• Breathable coverage
• A little goes a long way
• Looks natural
• Medium to full coverage
• Blends easily
• Doesn't look caked on
• Long lasting
CONS:
• After I applied this foundation and went about my day I would notice my face getting an itchy sensation. More so around the forehead and around the nose area. I wasn't sure if it was the foundation or not but I've never had this happen before with other face products I've tried which is why I rated it a 4 out of 5. My skin is sensitive and I was thinking this happened because it was a new product that I've never used on my face before. The itchy sensation went away after a while.

ReplyDeleteTina girl, I get that sameeee itchy feeling when I wear bare minerals! I dont get it, and yes it goes away after a while, but its such a pain! I assumed it was because Ive had my product for a while...maybe it was expired, and I bought a new one...and the same thing was happening. It was so annoying.
