Bare Minerals All-Over Face Color in Pure Radiance


Bare Minerals All-Over Face Color in Pure Radiance--the name pretty much says it all. This luminous, golden peach powder looks like love captured and bottled; it just radiates purity and beauty.

A dusting of this fine powder gives skin a dreamy glow and imparts just a hint of color to the skin.

Not only do luminizers like this product give skin a healthy look, their light-reflecting properties minimize complexion imperfections.

Simply apply it as you would your highlighter--over the cheekbones, down the bridge of the nose, and a tap on the forehead and chin.

Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Liner Shadow


Remember smudged eyeliner? It seemed to be all the rage in the '90s, and now no one is talking about it anymore. Maybe that's because we have Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Liner Shadow, a modern powder eyeliner.

This liner shadow is basically all pigment, so fear not, it will definitely define and not disappear on the lid. Apply it dry for a softer line or use a damp liner brush to create a sassy liquid line. I favor using it dry and working it into the lashline, so that you can't tell where lashes end and rich color begins.

Usually whenever I use a dark eye shadow, I never have a problem wisping away the fallout particles underneath my eyes. But with this potent shadow liner, a tissue under the eye is a must.

My Coffee Bean shade is a necessary shade of bold brown, but my next acquisitions will definitely be Bon Bon and Midnight Sky.

Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Glimmer



I have nothing but love for Bare Escentuals bareMinerals cosmetics. Although the mainstay of their line is their foundation, I have found all of their other products that I've tried to be superb as well. The glimmer is no exception. The particles are ultra refined so as to impart a sexy, sophisticated shimmer--never a juvenile, chunky glitter effect. The shades are diverse and wearable. You can apply them in a gentle sweep for a subtle effect, or pack them on for a striking look.

Because the glimmers are a loose powder, I always prep my eyes with an eyeshadow primer (usually a MAC shadestick or paint) before I apply the glimmer. Also, you may want to place a tissue under your eye when applying a darker shade of glimmer to catch any particles that flutter down.
