bare Minerals Matte Loose Powder Foundation SPF 15, Medium Tan 18

Fairest shades have been out of stock for months. When I contacted customer services they recommended that I try Shade 03 instead as this would be a close match. Unfortunately it's too yellow and dark for me, what a waste of money and poor advice! The fairest shades are still available on the US website, but sadly they don't ship here. When will they be brought back to the UK?

Why do you still have Golden Deep on your website saying you have run out when I have been told by staff on the phone that you have discontinued it? It would save a lot of leg work if you could keep your site up to date and inform staff in your boutiques when you discontinue a shade. Also, it would give your customers time to find a new shade before they run out. Lastly, telling the customer to just wear the next lightest or darkest shade either side is not helpful. People with darker skin have just as many undertones as anyone else.

I have sensitive, combination skin with mild rosacea and I've tried all sorts of liquid foundations which never worked. This doesn't irritate my skin, works wonders at hiding the redness and lasts ages (unlike classic liquid make up I had to reapply mid day). I use it with the Multi Tasking Concealer and my skin has never looked so good. Thank you Bare Minerals!!

I adore this powder. As soon as I start applying it I can see a difference. Blemishes disappear, my skintone evens and it even hides my pores near my cheekbones which is a godsend. I never have to use too much and the container is super easy to use and ensures you use the same amount each time. If you're going to get anything from bareMinerals, get this.

I've got combination skin, and I like the 'barely there' look, so this is perfect. It feels so light and lasts all day. I have a very active, outdoor job and this foundation stays on in all weathers. While my co workers are sweating, my skin looks the same as it did in the morning! Due to it being powder, there's no grease to cause breakouts and it isn't drying at all. I'm also amazed at how a tiny amount can give such good coverage too. I've been using it for about 2 years and have only purchased it a few times - it lasts that long! It's very easy to use too much at first, so make sure you buff it on loads and don't reload the brush. Would highly, highly recommend if you have dodgy skin and like a natural look!
