Bare Naturale Soft-Focus Mineral Finish

And it's so pretty. This is not truly a totally matte finish. It is actually more of a semi matte/satin finish. It takes out the shine without being dull. It brightens almost as well as the Sonia Kashuk brightening powder that I love love love but hate the packaging. This is my replacement. It goes on very smoothly and evenly. The thing I don't like about this is the packaging...kinda. I don't mind the actual packaging. The brush is really nice. A very good brush so for the price I feel like I get my money's worth, if I could use the brush. I keep this in my purse and so powder gets through the sifter. It's ok though because it doesn't spill out or make a mess. It's very secure even when I open the jar. It's just made well. But what I do is tip a little int the clear lid and swirl my brush around in there. That works great because the lid is tall enough that no product spills out on my clothes. But the lid is too tall to swirl the given brush in it and I can't swirl it in the jar because there is too much product out. That, in my round about "I talk too much" story is my complaint about the packaging. Other than that, I love it.

Okay, I was about ready to throw this in the garbage because it made me look ashy and cakey at the same time. I hate that feeling! But, I found a new way of using it. To set the concealer under my eye, I apply this and it works great! But no way in the world would I use this as a overall powder again.

I did not like this product all that much. It was cakey and looked like it just sat on my face. One good thing about it was that it didn't break my skin out. It's not horrible, but I wouldn't recomend it.

This is the best powder in the world! It covers like foundation. It makes all my redness, scaring and little bumps disappear. It never makes you look cakey or powdery. And the brush it comes with even works pretty well. I love L'oreal products because you pay a little bit more for high quality french make up from the drug store. Its reasonably priced and so professional looking. I swear by it. And there are always coupons for it in the Sunday paper.
