Alternative to Bare Minerals

Should I gits me some samples? :tap:
In all seriousness, they send a pretty decent amount of each product sample. I'd say it is definately worth the price of shipping. I haven't tried the product yet tho... so I can't give you my opinion on how it compares to BM yet.

Have you compared the ingredients? I don't care for the foundation as much as I want to try the blushes...:lol:

The samples come in little clear screw-top containers. I'd say there is enough blush in the "blush sample container" to last a person weeks. So, if it's really the blush you are interested in trying most... definately go for it!

tired and content....
I just got my samples yesterday in the mail. The blush that I got was way too dark for me, I did look like Mimi last night when I was playing with the makeup. :lmao: I forget the name of it though....

I have some funds in my Paypal account so I just ordered a sample kit. Now I just have to wait for it to arrive...:tap:

Well, Sweetpea.... how did it hold up...:tap:
So far it's good. I did forget to give it a good lookover in the sunlight though. I'll be sure to do it tomorrow. Also...the foundation shades seem to run a tad lighter than BM.

The darkest foundation shade that I got (which looks like it will be fine) makes me look yellow. The others are waaaay too light for me.

They sent me all kinds of stuff. I got a blush, a concealer and SIX foundations - one of each of the colors I ordered in both the matte and the Original Glo.

What a deal! :cartwheel

:kiss: I am using the foundation with my bare minerals " warmth and finishing vail ". The color is better then the one I bought from BM. The blush is Glittery golden. I will give that to my grandaughter.
Lots for just the price of shipping.

I like it! :yahoo:

The coverage is excellent and the color looks great. They are a bit lighter than the BM shades, though. I even like the blush - I got the Apple color and it looks pretty darn good.

I used the Original Glo and my skin looks all dewy and moist. :cartwheel

I'd buy this instead of BareMinerals. BUT I also like being able to go to Sephora and getting everything I need in one fell swoop. A dilemma....

I used mine this morning too. I like the coverage too. I also chose Apple as the blush and it is a very nice shade.

I can't wait to try it! I'm hoping that I don't start to break out from using it, though. That would suck! :ohwell:

I tried BM before and didn't care for it. I went ahead to give this stuff a try and I do like it. I got the matte in the foundation and that stays put. The blush I selected was Girl's Day Blush and I really like it.

I ordered the samples a couple days ago. Hopefully I'll have them today! I'm excited that someone said they're yellow. Being olive I usually have a problem with foundations being too pink. :getdown: I need something light (as in coverage) for the summer!
