By bareMinerials. I don't use foundation but my skin is looking really crappy and uneven. The commercials on television make this seem really easy to use (just 1-2 drops for your whole face.) I am thinking about going to Sephora to give it a try one I can walk through the mall but I wanted to know if anyone had any first hand experience with it.

I'd recommend going in to Sephora and asking for help finding the right foundation for your face, not asking about a specific foundation. Discuss your skin type and the look you want. Not every foundation is good for every face.
Personally, the Bare Skin foundation doesn't look that easy to me. I use MAC Matchmaster foundation. It comes in a pump bottle. One pump covers my whole face. I use my fingers to apply foundation. I find that works way better for me than brushes or sponges.

I bought it off of QVC. It came with the brush you drop the foundation in to and I really like it. You can make the coverage as light or as heavy as you want. I use about 2 drops per side of my face for a little more coverage. It's lightweight and seems to last. Just make sure you shake it really well before applying.

I love it, and prior to this I was not a liquid foundation girl. I went to an actual Bare Escentuals store to be color matched. My color was a bit different than the powder version. I like how it feels on and not as messy in application. My friend tried it too, she is a long time BE user, and hadn't been using it as of late because of how it was settling on her face (she is turning 60 next year, and her skin has changed), but she was very happy with this, as well as how it covered her redness.

I've been using all summer, and for,the most part, I like it. At first I didn't, until I realized just how little you actually need to use! I was using waaaaay too much. Now I just use the smallest of drops on each half of my face and it looks perfect. It does not, however, hold up well to the humidity. I am outside a lot, and it's usually gone by noon. I'm not sure any foundation could hold up to cleaning 20 stalls in 85 degrees tho. Lol. . I do use mineral veil too.
FYI, I have redness issues too, roseacea, I'm pretty sure. Bare essentials has a powder called "redness remedy" that is fantastic. I can't live without it now.

I am a big fan. Have been using it for years. I've received many compliments that I have nice skin in fact, my tone is uneven and I have acne scars. It gives nice coverage without looking heavily made up. I use the original not the matte finish. I think it gives a nice healthy glow but if you tend to have shiny skin, the matte might be a better choice.
