When did Bare Escentuals get so huge!? Suddenly I feel like I see their stores, ads, and counters all over the place! For good reason too. They’ve just come out with a new line of matte foundations ($28), that are great for travel because they click and lock shut and they help absorb oil and minimize pore size (the foundations are infused with the RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex). They’re also better for people who may have been sensitive to
the original formula, because it doesn’t have bismuth oxychloride which makes some people break-out. I’ve been using their Medium Beige and its helped get me through the last few weeks of chaotic running around. I’ve been combining it with Estee Lauder’s Soft Shimmer Bronzer ($30) and Temptu’s highlighter ($35) so I can control my oil and shine while still having a light shimmer.
How do you feel about matte foundation?
