    Back to my Old favourite

    Initially was a bit concerned as powder looked darker than when I previously used it. Turns out it was a perfect match, And really happy with the natural looking coverage!

    Best all day coverage

    I won’t use anything else. I tend to get red blotches when I eat or drink something hot. The blotches bled through with other makeup. Not with this! Forever customer here.

    Great product great ingredients never an outbreak!

    I have been using this product for over 10 years and love it! Love how warm tan 22 is the most perfect light power for my face! I’ve always received compliments and a lot of the time people can’t tell I’m even wearing a foundation! I hope they never change any ingredients or discontinue.

    I've been using this for decades

    I've been using this since I was in my 40's. I am now in my early 60's and I often get compliments on my skin. I love that it has SPF and I feel my skin has benefitted from that through the years. It's also very natural looking and, when I take it off at night, I see from my cleansing cloth that it has lasted all-day. No need to re-apply once you put it on in the morning.

Mineral Powder Foundation FAQs 

What Makes bareMinerals’ Loose Powder Foundation the Best Hypoallergenic Foundation?

The reason bareMinerals’ loose powder foundation is the best hypoallergenic foundation is due to its ingredient list. Made with just 5 clean ingredients, it’s a talc-free foundation that won’t irritate skin, clog pores, or cause breakouts. It’s formulated without parabens, formaldehyde, gluten, synthetic fragrance, PEGs, and more.

What Are the Benefits Of Mineral Foundation With SPF?

The benefits of mineral foundation with SPF include an extra layer of sun protection throughout the day and non-irritating titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. Instead of chemical sunscreens that can cause burning and redness, we relied on the power of minerals to provide both sun protection and buildable coverage in our foundation.

What Makes bareMinerals’ Foundation a Clean Foundation?

We restrict over 2,500 ingredients, including the 1,400+ banned in the E.U. These high standards are what ensure our products are clean and safe for all skin types. If you’ve been looking for a clean foundation, bareMinerals has you covered.

Is bareMinerals Loose Powder Foundation Hypoallergenic?

Yes! The bareMinerals loose powder foundation is hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, vegan, cruelty-free, derm-tested and clean.

What Is The Best Brush to Use For Mineral Foundation? 

We suggest using our Beautiful Finish Foundation Brush when applying our mineral foundation. Simply swirl a small amount of the foundation in the cap with your brush, tap away the excess, and buff onto your skin using circular motions. You can repeat this until you get the coverage you want.
