It's a great choice for those with all skin types, even sensitive skin, offering SPF 15 protection.

FAQs

How do I choose the right shade?

bareMinerals provides a range of shades. Consider your skin tone and undertone. If unsure, try a few shades on your jawline in natural light to find the best match.

Can I use this foundation if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, this foundation is dermatologist-tested, non-comedogenic, and non-acnegenic, making it suitable for sensitive skin. However, always do a patch test if you have extreme sensitivities.

How should I apply the foundation for the best results?

For a natural look, use the Precision Face Brush (sold separately). For fuller coverage, use the included sponge. Build coverage by adding layers as needed.

Does this foundation provide sun protection?

Yes, it contains Mineral SPF 15, which provides broad-spectrum protection against UVA/UVB rays.

How do I clean my application brush and sponge?

Clean your brush with a brush cleaner or gentle soap and water. Wash the sponge with mild soap and water. Allow both to air dry completely.

Is this foundation good for oily skin?

Yes, it is suitable for oily skin. However, for best results, use a mattifying primer and setting powder to control shine.

What are the key ingredients?

Key ingredients include Mineral SPF 15, Mineral Silica, and Mineral Pigments. These ingredients protect, blur, and provide color.

How long does the foundation last?

The formula is designed for 12-hour wear. However, wear time can vary depending on skin type and environmental conditions.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears cakey or patchy.

Ensure your skin is properly moisturized before application. Use a lighter touch with the brush or sponge, and blend well. Avoid applying too much product at once.

Color match is not accurate.

Consider trying different shades or getting a professional color matching consultation. The shade may appear different in various lighting conditions. Review the shades available in the bareMinerals range to find the closest match to your skin tone.

Foundation doesn't last all day.

Use a makeup primer before application to extend wear. Set the foundation with a setting spray. For oily skin, consider using a mattifying primer and setting powder.

Foundation clogs pores or causes breakouts.

Ensure your brushes and applicators are clean. Consider if you are using other products that may be causing breakouts. Although non-comedogenic, some individuals may still react to certain ingredients. Stop use if irritation occurs.

Difficult to blend.

Use a blending brush or sponge and blend in circular motions. Ensure the brush is clean to provide even application and blending.
