I've been buying this powder from Target for years and it is actually a great product. This review is to get Target's attention about their customer service fail. I ordered this online, bcause my store no longer carries it. The powder was shipped in a giant box with no packaging material. When I opened the powder, it was missing the plastic seal so the powder exploded everywhere. I submitted a return on the app, choosing the reason that the product was damaged and gave a detailed description. I mailed it back (with bubble wrap!) Target denied my return and I can't get any help from customer service. I just want a refund.

I bought Fair Ivory 02 and it used to be the perfect match and have a gorgeous glow. I'm so sad that this product has changed so much. Now it looks so chalky, yellow and is so extremely drying on me. I used to work for bareMinerals and after they got bought out a few years ago and closed all the boutiques I was hoping that this sort of product change would not also happen. This was such an amazing company when Leslie Blodgett was in charge. they used to have all the fun sets and it was such a girlfriend experience, it really was. Now it's just another company in my opinion.
Not for me

I used this years ago but then started using liquid makeup because I was told that I shouldn't be using powder on my face at my age. I just went back to the original bare minerals makeup. The swirl tap buff technique. I forgot how much I missed it!! You can build coverage up. You look fabulous! It didn't break me out. It didn't stay in my lines (I'm 55). It's easy and quick! You can put just a bit on and look great. I'm so mad at myself for not going back sooner. This is what put bare minerals on the market. Greatest of all time foundation.
Used it for years!! Still Love itππππ

I read that bareminerals was bought out. I had hoped that the new company would not mess with the forumals, and they did exactly that! Bismuth Oxychloride (a pore clogging ingredient) use to be the LAST ingredient on the ORIGINAL foundation and now on the NEW one it's the FIRST ingredient! Mica is a lot more expensive than Bismuth Oxychloride. So I'm assuming the new company is trying to save money by using more of the cheap pore clogging ingredient. I'm taking my recently purchased powder and liqiud bareminerals foundation back to the store! They cannot treat loyal customers this way!
This is an amazing light powder foundation!

Thank you to the Ulta Beauty Rep who spent the time with me to determine the proper shade. This powder foundation covers well, looks natural, and doesn't feel like you're wearing anything on your face at all. Love it!

I used this in highschool and was neutral about it.Once I turned 35, my skin changed. everything I had wasn't working. I came back to this and it's amazing. It looks natural and I don't even feel it on my skin. I traveled with it and had no issues. I actually preferred to have the powder because it doesn't count towards your limited liquid bag. it lasts a long time, even more when you use their primer and veil powder I noticed. I paired this with the nars pot concealer and it's game changing!

Tried applying it a couple times--it just looked cakey and showed more wrinkles than I thought I had!
Rosacea and dry skin friendly!

This powder is amazing! I have very dry, sensitive, rosacea skin, and this powder has been a godsend for me. I deal with extreme redness and have to use very high coverage foundations to cover it when I go out, but with just a couple swipes it beautifully covers my redness while leaving my skin looking like my skin. I will absolutely be repurchasing and this is a staple in my everyday collection!
Love this product.

Been using this for 20 years. It's the only foundation that looked great and settled nicely giving me a perfect glow. Fair Ivory 02 is not the same shade now. It's lighter and chalky. No glow. You can see the difference in my photo. Returning.
I would buy this again

My bareMinerals foundation has a trim me sticker on the top and when I opened it, it has already been open so they was sent a product that was used as a sample! You can clearly see there is foundation on the outside where it has been handled and the trim sticker on the top as well as when I unscrewed the lid that is exactly what I saw so it has already been opened and I would like a refund!!
