Skin Care Review: Bare Escentuals Starter Kit

by Keilalina

Rating
Adverse Effects

Benefits
ease of application

Drawbacks
Made dry areas even more noticeable caused irritation, boil like breakouts

Details
I wish I had read some of the reviews before investing in this stuff. I thought for sure it would work since a few of my co workers raved about it. Plus, i thought, minerals would be better than foundation. It seemed easy to use. NOT! The brush hairs ended up all over my face, and when applying (they tell you to swirl it on, it made me itchy) AND after reading one of the reviews, I realize that this was the cause for my breakouts. I can honestly that I rarely breakout. I am now 35 and can count on one and the number of times I've had a pimple BUT after using this, I've broken out in (what another reviewer used) boil-like pimples(deep within the skin and tender to the touch) A friend of mine noticed the break outs and told me to stop whatever I had been using cuz it was ruining my clear skin!! AND they are leaving dark scars.

Conclusions
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. I'm going back to just using my favorite bronzer

Price (paid by reviewer)
$60.00

Where to find it
April 2006/Sephora
