I was reading your site and was delighted to see that you’re requesting feedback from your readers as to what beauty products work, and which ones don’t.
I’ve struggled with acne and dark under-eye circles for as long as I can remember. As a result, I’ve tried just about EVERY concealer and foundation there is. I find that the ones that cover the best give a very unnatural finish, or just simply don’t match my natural skin tone (I’m very pale). After YEARS of experimenting and way too much $$ spent, I was walking through Sephora on 5th Avenue between 48th and 49th Street about two years ago, and came across a brand name that I remember watching on HSN YEARS ago. The fact that this company made it from HSN to Sephora made me feel I should give it a try (especially considering that I was tempted to buy it from HSN back in the day).
The brand name is Bare Escentuals, and the miracle product that I simply can’t live without is “Bare Escentuals bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation“. It has buildable coverage that looks completely natural, and perfectly covers my blemishes, scars and under-eye circles. And because it’s a powder foundation and not liquid, it blends seamlessly with my skin tone. I remember watching the segment on HSN years ago thinking this was a great product back then, but was skeptical to purchase it at the time due to the fact that it was on television, and not something I could sample in person. I’m SO glad Sephora now carries it because I was able to see with my own eyes (and on my own skin) just how perfect it is.
Anyway, I hope this feedback was helpful. Bear Escentuals bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation (in “Fairly Light” shade) is my miracle product for covering imperfections and discoloration without looking too cakey, and if this advice helps another one of your readers, then I’m glad to offer the feedback!
