Bare Minerals Starter Kit

by Dexie

bm_kit1.jpgI have seen the infomercial for years. I’ve always wanted the starter kit but I just knew I wouldn’t be able to afford it so I stucked with my Cover Girl loose powder foundation. But last Christmas a very generous, beautiful and stylish friend of mine sent me my first kit as a Christmas gift. It came in such a delicate yet so elegant box that says SEPHORA. Picture me shrieking with joy on the verge of an orgasm..LOL. The kit came with the following :

-Two shades of bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation
-bareVitamins Skin Rev-er Upper
-Mineral Veil
-Warmth All Over Face Color
-Flawless Application Brush
-Full Coverage Kabuki Brush
-Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush
-A How-to DVD

So since December I have been swirling, tapping and buffing my way to a flawless madeup face. I love the Rev-ev Upper. I put it on before I apply the powder foundation, then at night before going to bed. It really makes a difference when I feel a zit coming out. Just a little dab of this and my face is clear the next morning. It’s as good as the toner from the Pro-Active kit. The powder foundation is the best. Unlike other products, Bare Escentuals gives my face a natural look. I love the CG face powder but you could always tell I’m wearing make up. Not with BM. It actually is the best invention so far to suit my face problems which is a combination of oily and dry. The Mineral Veil gives that transluscent touch for a flawless look.

After using Bare Minerals, I don’t see myself trying any other products. What I love even more about it is that it’s safe to go to bed with it on. I know it’s bad to wear makeup to bed but sometimes I am just too tired at night that I don’t have time to wash my face after brushing my teeth, hehe. Thanks to BM, I have gotten away with sleeping with my makeup on a few times. This $181 value can be purchased for $60 at SEPHORA. If you have the same oily and dry face problems like I do, I advice you to try to invest on this product. Hey, it worked for me :) .

    [...] Just as my face have the combination of oily and dry problem hence sticking to a make-up line that finally solves it, I’m happy to be using Sunsilk products right now to solve my slpit ends prone and flat hair problems. I’ve done damage to my hair from years of trying out different products just to get the right combination to help me out. Some people are surprised when I tell them Pantene does not solve my split ends problem. I tried the product just as it became the rage but to no avail. Thanks to Sunsilk, I think I’ve finally found solutions for my hair problems. I’m definitely getting Hairapy everyday. [...]
