I have questions on Bare Mineral products I've heard they're great and want to try them-
Where can you get them
how much are they
Do they last throughout the day
Anyones experiences with them good or bad....

You can buy them directly from BE or several other stores online (BE also has actual stores) and you can check auction sites.
A .3 oz (9 grams) jar of foundation is $25.
The amount of time it lasts vary from person to person.
I didn't like BE. It gave my skin a shiny look - even with the Mineral Veil. It didn't cover well & I had trouble getting a good color match.
If you're interested in mineral makeup you may want to check out some of the other lines as well. My favorites are Aromaleigh & GeoGrafx - you can buy samples directly from them. Their products are matte - so no shine. They also don't contain bismuth which can cause irritation & itching in some people (BE DOES contain bismuth). I get much better coverage, the makeup stays on all day, and I get a good color match. Also, with Aromaleigh, you get a 3 oz.- net vol. (30 gram - net weight) jar for $17.25 - so you get quite a lot more for less money.

I love Bare Minerals and use it everyday. I have very very sensitive skin with no problems. It lasts all day on me and gives great coverage (broken bloodvessels, scarring etc. --all covered). I get the 9 gram jar on auction sites for $18 bucks (the big one that lasts me about 9 months or so) I dont use mineral veil daily but just my bareminerals. Application techinque differs for lots of people, but I dab on any spots that need extra cover then do the whole face. After I dampen my hands and press it into my skin. It lasts from morning til night for me-even if I get sweaty. It also has spf 15 which is great. I will never switch to anything else (I was a former prescriptives devotee and have done a few wedding parties makeup with bareminerals-and almost everyone that had it done went and switched to mineral makeup too!) Unbelieveable makeup, and very inexpensive for 9 months of use.
