Bare Escentuals: THE DEVIL'S OWN WORK

[JodieHarsh]

I must post about this. I have just spunked nearly ninety quid on some Bare Escentuals starter kit things.

I arrived at the counter in Stratford Westfield with a hideous bright red, sore, scarred, spotty, sweaty face, and some WITCH managed to take a decade off me with POWDER. Just powder! I mean - WT actual F?! A tube ride and a 20 minute walk home and it's still there. SURELY that's not right. I've used all sorts of super-max coverage matte stuff and it didn't cover ANYTHING like this well. O and I have the glowing rosy cheeks of a teen

I promise I've not been giver a tenner to post this stuff. It's just I've spent so much I feel slightly sick. Does anyone else use this stuff? it's not going to last is it. i'm an idiot. What have I done

Right am adding to this, (mainly for ggirl who I know found the shades a loitttle trying)

Bare Minerals All over Face Colour in Rose Radiance is THE best thing about this range. I have been using Fairly Light and tbh it's a bit pale for me, but the klight is too yellow. SOO I ordered rose radiance and it givs me thatover' rosy just been shagged' look I'm always after. The other face colour is too terracotta brick dust for my skin

resultamundo!

OK, I got one of the Bright and Beautiful sets yesterday after seeing how this stuff made the scabby bits of my skin vanish. It doesn't come with the Mineral Veil though - what does this do? Do I need it?

I do have a lipgloss, blush, smokey eye colour, eyeliner, brush, foundation, primer and eyelid primer, though.

Mineral veil is great under and over the foundation - esp for oily skins (the hydrating one if you have a dry skin). I've been using BE for about 4 years now - total convert. However, my question is this:

Has anyone tried the new blemish remedy yet? I've bought it but haven't had any blemishes to try it on (please don't hate me). Also, how do you feel about the night treatment? I love going to bed with my glowy BE face but I'm not sure there are any skincare benefits - you do look great when you wake up - pores smaller etc but I find that effect does just wash off.

Sorry if this has been discussed before but there are 42 pages...!
