Okay so today I picked up the Bare Escentuals/Bare Minerals (whichever name you want to call it) starter kit at Sephora and have tried it once. So far I love it. Anyone else use this makeup? How do you like it? Advantages/Disadvantages?

Well, I've personally never tried Bare Minerals, but I've heard some very mixed reviews about it.

Sort of like MAC's MSFs (Mineral Skin Finishes), you either love them, or you can't use them.

While Bare Minerals works great for some people, I've also heard from many that they can't use it because it causes them to break out like hell. Of course, this happens with most types of make ups and make up brands.

The thing with minerals however, like Aimee says is that for some people, they can either blend with the face very well, or it clogs up pores, irritates the skin and causes break outs.

Personally, I don't think that any mineralized foundations/blushes would work for me as my skin is combination skin, but the dry parts are very dry, and the oily parts can get really oily. So, I think that it would just dry up parts of my skin even more and cause my T-zone to break out.
