Bare Escentuals 2

If you have wonderful skin to begin with, then this product is for you! I have very oily skin and large pores and everything that the video and the infomercials tell you to do I did. Nothing worked. Within an hour my face was shiny and with foundation I could go atleast half a day before I started to show shine. It caked on my face as well especially around the chin, forehead, and nose...the wonderful 't' zone!! Anyone who has normal skin with no breakouts or large pores can definitely benefit from the fact that it does cover some problem areas like redness, fine lines, or acne scars. The mineral veil makes you look more pink though, so watch out for that even though they tell you it is translucent. And it was either the full coverage kabuki brush or the make-up itself that made me feel like every few seconds someone was sticking a needle into certain parts of my face. That lasted until I washed my face. So when I went out with my husband I was constantly complaining about it. I have since switched back to Este Lauder and I now use their foundation pressed powder because I don't want to have to go back to using a regular foundation. So far so good...no caking or stinging pains!! Good Luck if you decide to use it...their customer service is really nice and generous! Hope this helps:)

the reason your face was stinging was because you were allergic to the bismuth oxychloride. it does that with my forehead. your body is rejecting the TOXIN and therefore makes a tingly feeling.
