Customer Review: Bare Escentauls Aida Lipstick is my favorite!
Bare Escentuals Aida Lipstick is one of my favorites.....Nude being my other favorite. Sometimes I combine the two to make a "customized" color. Although this is the older line of Bare Escentuals lipsticks, I much prefer them to the new ones which I find dry. I also prefer the older colors over the new ones. I always receive compliments on the colors and requests for the brand. Wish Bare Escentuals had not discontinued them!!

Bare Escentuals Wet/Dry Shadow Brush

Customer Review: Bare Escentuals Make up brush.
This is a nice brush for applying shadow to eyes. Well made and applies evenly with a nice soft brush.
Customer Review: Love It!!!
THIS IS THE BEST EYESHADOW BRUSH AVAILABLE IT GRABS ENOUGH MINERALS SO YOU DONT HAVE TO KEEP DIPPING FOR MORE AND IT APPLIES NICELY. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BRUSH. BUT HEY EVERYTHING BY BARE ESCENTUALS IS GREAT YOU CANT GO WRONG WITH THEM...

Bare Escentuals Flawless Application Face Brush

Customer Review: So messy and not satisfactory
This brush came with the starter kit and the hairs fall out or break and end up all over my clothes. I already find the mineral make up rather messy, and this just adds to the mess. The Body Shop makes much better makeup brushes for about the same price and they are cruelty free (synthetic) and they get top reviews on Amazon. I'm going to buy those instead.
Customer Review: Great Deal
Brush worked great , was in excellent condition, and sold for a great deal. Highly recomended.

Bare Escentuals bareVitamins Prime Time Eyelid Primer 0.05 oz

Customer Review: Wonderful product
I have had oily skin since I was a child and found that when you have oily skin, eye make-up doesn't stay on long or well at all. This product is absolutely amazing in that even in the hot summer days, there is NO creasing of my make-up on my eyelids. To me, it's a miracle. I have spent so many years trying to control the creasing and having to wash and reapply if I wanted to go out at night that this is amazing! I just wish it was a little cheaper.
Customer Review: Prime Time
I bought this product yesterday from the Bare Escentuals store and it worked so well I just had to write a review! This stuff worked much better than I anticipated! I am amazed at how my eyeshadow is still in place even after sleeping! I always had the problem of my makeup clumping with oil in my crease. Not only did this prevent a crease from forming, but it also preserved the "just applied" look. I will definitely be using this daily especially with this reasonable price.

Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Essential Brow Kit Auburn

Customer Review: Great brow kit, but hoped for more directions
GOOD KIT, NICE PRODUCT, MINIMAL DIRECTIONS The Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Essential Brow Kit is a good alternative to an eyebrow pencil, especially if you have eyebrows, but they are getting sparce and simply need filling in. However, if you are looking for directions on how to shape your brows, this kit is lacking. THE DIRECTIONS On the back of the box are basic instructions that say to start at the arch of the brow and work outwards. If you can't figure out where the arch is, you're like me and need more detailed directions. Admittedly those directions are around, but not on the back of this box where the application instructions are printed. COLOR CHOICE After reading several reviews on Sephora and Amazon I purchased the dark blonde - medium color kit. I'm glad I did, as brunette would have been way too dark. The photo on Amazon appears too light - not matching the actual color that ships with the kit. I also have auburn highlights in my dark brown hair, but decided I could add BE's Warmth color to my brows to get the hint of auburn if desired. I think the kit is priced a bit high, but it should last a long time and you can purchase brow colors separately without the finishing serum and brush in the kit. Overall, its easier to apply than a pencil and looks more natural. I'm happy with the product.
Customer Review: The perfect eyebrow set
Over the years, I've used just about every eyebrow product available and never found one that I couldn't do without until using this one. The little brush has just the right amount of stiffness to get the powder where you want it. Another reviewer said her eyebrows were sparse; well, mine are also, but after using the powder I use a regular eyebrow brush to get rid of any excess powder and to soften the look. The Brunette is really dark, though, so be aware of that when ordering. Next time I'll get a softer shade---wish they made a taupe.

Bare Escentuals Smoky "V" Eye Tutorials ($54 Value) Smoky "V" Eye Tutorials

Customer Review: Adore the colors, can't get the brush to work
I absolutely love the colors in this set. I can't say enough how nice they look. However, the brush, which is half the point of buying these kits, just does not work for me. The 'v' side, at least, always manages to go completely off-track and does not look anything like what I imagined I was doing when I started applying the powder. I'm sure it's just me being incompetent, but still. These sets are supposed to be "tutorials"- meaning they are made for the non-expert. I do like the other side of the brush and use it often. Short story- Love the colors, hate the brush. Do with this advice what you will.
Customer Review: not crazy
not that crazy about this... thought the brush would hold the v a little longer...

Bare Escentuals Buxom Lips Full Color Sophia

Customer Review: Love this stuff!!!!
I love the full color Buxom line! I have Carmen and it is the perfect deep pinkish purplish shade, especially for this season. It smells great, has a great texture, and I love the tingling. Can't say enough good things about the whole Bare Escentuals line! Oh, also, it doesn't make my lips peel. I have very sensitive skin. Even most chapsticks/lip hydrators peel my lips.
Customer Review: GREAT expansion of the Buxom Line
I bought this product the moment I found out it existed! I agree with the first reviewer that to get a perfect match you should go and check the colors out in person. However, I purchased it online, and felt that what I received was the color I expected (I ordered Roxanne and on me - fair skin - it is a medium coppery rose.) I love the consistency of this product, it doesn't dry out or feel sticky, and the minty tingle is addictive! It truly is full color, not sheer, and the glossiness adds a dimension to the color, like looking down into a pool, that is probably part of the illusion of fuller lips. I highly recommend trying it, and will definitely be going back for more colors!

Bare Escentuals Well Cared For 4 oz

Customer Review: Good as new!
I have been using the brush cleaner for a while and definitly recommend it. The bottle lasts a long time and the soap lathers very well on the brushes. It keeps your pricey brushes lasting a long time. Not to mention keeping all the germs away and out of your make up helping to keep clear skin! This brush cleaner is a must!
Customer Review: Excellent product
I have never used a makeup brush cleaner, but now use more expensive brushes and thought I would try it. This is well worth the investment. It was unbelievable all the makeup that came running off the brushes! And the brushes are as good as new! I highly recommend this product.

Bare Escentuals Bare Minerals Starter kit (Medium)

Price: $60.00
Customer Review: Much better than regular makeup
I love this kit!! I am 43 and my skin has never looked better since I started using this makeup. It is very light, feels like you're not wearing any makeup at all. I will never go back to liquid or cream foundations after using this. It lasts FOREVER, too.
Customer Review: Makes you look older
I bought the BE starter kit - loved the brushes but hated the entire makeup system. I'm 39 with very good skin for my age, but the powders settle on your imperfections and make you look older. A woman in my office bought it, too, and we are both convinced the poweders excentuate wrinkles. I would not recommend for anyone over 35... but the brushes are nice.

Bare Escentuals Buxom Babes Lip Polish Duo Featuring Brandi & Sugar Mini Buxom Kit- Cool




Bare Escentuals bareMinerals® Get Started(TM): Eyes, Cheeks, Lips - Fair-To-Light ($112 Value) Fair-To-Light

Customer Review: Bare Escentuals Get Started Eyes, Cheeks, Lips
I just bought this kit from Amazon and I do like the colors, brushes, and lip gloss. I have hazel eyes and I feel like the colors really bring out the green in my eyes. The colors can also be worn for a day or evening look. It all depends on how heavy you put on the makeup. The lip gloss is very nice and tingly. I am disappointed by the small size of the containers and the sparkly blush. If I were to buy it all over again I would go Ulta or Sephora to make sure I am happy with what I am getting.
Customer Review: I like it
I bought this kit a couple months ago when it first came out. It does not come with a DVD or any sort of intructions, so I just put it on the way I've learned throughout the years. For the eyeshadows, I put the light eyeshadow color all over the lid and the dark eyeshadow just in the crease. Which, I will say that I think the light eyeshadow is TOO light because I can barely tell anything is there at all when I wear it, and then the 'crease' shadow is too dark.. when I wore it, and lightly at that, my 6 year old niece said it looked like black eye shadow. Having said that, I LOVE the powder eyeliner and the brush you use for it. It gives my eyes soft definition and the color works really well with my pale skin tone and auburn hair. Having the liner in powder form, and using that specific brush gives me an effect I've never seen before, and I adore it. It will always be my go-to eyeliner when I want to look my best. The blush.. I feel neutral about the blush. It is quite pink as you can see in the picture, so I always put it on light. But it works. It's what I use when I use blush. I DO really enjoy the lip gloss that comes along with the kit. I think its a very pretty color, Dolly is the name I do believe, and it stays put pretty well without feel heavy or sticky. Overall, it was nice for an inexperienced makeup person like me to have a kit layed out for me with everything I needed, but the eyeshadows aren't something I can use every day, though everything else is. If the eyeshadow colors work for you though, then I'd say definitely go for it.
