    Best - favorite

    The descriptions are so good . I guessed my shade and was spot on. I only use sunscreen in the morning before applying the foundation and it sets well for all day wear. Natural shade.

    Been using for almost 20 years

    I have been using bare minerals makeup for almost 20 years. I have zero complaints. It's melts into my skin making it look flawless without looking like I have makeup on! It's so clean and puteand feels so good. I started using in my 20's and still continue as I just turned 42. It's the best!

    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!

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.
