    Nice powder

    I was apprehensive about the shade match the website recommended but it was perfect. Easy to apply, very fine powder, nice dispensable container.

    Natural look yet perfect coverage

    I absolutely love the original bare minerals loose powder! It gives a natural shine and shimmer and covers up lines, and acts as a good concealer under my eyes. I don’t have blemishes or oily skin so I don’t need much make up nor do I like wearing too much. This is perfect for me and protects my skin from the sun just enough as I’m outside or driving a lot! Even works great at the gym when you want to look decent no matter where you are quick fast and in the go!
