Product reviews of Bare Escentuals bareVitamins Prime Time Review: The best foundation for my foundation... Beauty product: 4 Stars
After going back and forth with Clinique foundation some days and the BE foundation others for about a year, I decided to go and have a consultation done at a local salon and spa place which sells all the BE products (they had a special on foundation). It was the best thing I've ever done! I had tried the Prime Time primer before, but I never bought it. Well, the esthetician who did my consult put it on me first (my face felt like silk, no joke!) and then she did my Light foundation, a little Warmth, Clear Radiance on the apples of my cheeks and a little on my nose and then Featherlight Mineral Veil (which has a slight shimmer to it). She gave me a hand mirror, and my honest to goodness reaction was, "It looks just like in the video!" And my friend who was with me laughed, but she agreed that it looked that excellent. I've watched the BE instructional dvd and never could get my make-up to look as good, and I realize now it was because I didn't have the primer. I thought it was because I don't have flawless skin, but the primer really does lay the foundation for the foundation and everything else. I have acne on and off, and it works even on my problem skin. It keeps my face from looking dry and crusty, and my face feels good to touch, too. The rest of the day I felt so good about my complexion. I love this stuff!
I gave it four stars because it's a lot to pay for just 1 oz.
Review: This is an awesome product! Beauty product: 5 Stars
I was so happy to be able to find this product. I had received an email from Bare Escentuals about it and wanted to give it a try. I used to use regular lotion as a base, but would at times get spots where my foundation would cake up. This goes on silky smooth without having to worry about any caking. It feels like silk on your skin.

This is the perfect companion for Bare Minerals, use it everyday I wear makeup.
I am also a professional wedding photographer and recommend this and the BM foundation to all my brides...it makes you look flawless in photos!
Review: Try Bare Escentuals - You Will Love It! Beauty product: 5 Stars
This product is an excellent prep-step to applying your Bare Escentuals products. It creates a wonderfully smooth base for your Foundation to go on top of. I have even gone without the Foundation and used this by itself when I've been in a rush. Prime-Time feels like silk when it is applied. It goes on so smooth you honestly don't even feel it on the skin! For me, I've noticed that it evens out my skin tone and also helps to reduce oil build-up on my skin. Be sure to use only 1 pump of this product and let it dry for several minutes before you apply your make-up. If you use too much, or don't let it dry enough, you will notice that it can "grab" too much of the Foundation "powder" and can look cakey. Remember that with Bare Escentuals their statement of "less is more" is definitely true in this case.
I have been using Bare Escentuals products now for the last 4 years and I refuse to use anything else. At first you will wonder "Am I doing this right"? Not to worry, you can't possibly do it wrong! It does take some time to develop your own "techniques" for applying the make-up quickly, but stay with it and you won't regret it! I have extremely pale skin and have always had trouble finding makeup that conceals the inperfections without making me look like I'm ready for Halloween everyday of the year. No matter what make-up products I tried, I always had the same result: washed-out skin that felt suffocated. The first time I applied this make-up I was amazed at how natural it looked and felt. I can't stress enough that the biggest benefit of using Bare Escentuals is the fact that you don't feel it on your skin and it looks beautiful. Your skin can breathe through the make-up and you CAN go all day without having to do touch-ups. The other benefits of using Bare Escentuals are that even if you think you've applied to much, it blends beautifully and is literally mistake-proof (try that with regular make-up). Also, you may think that it is expensive to "try", but it isn't. ALL of my first purchases are 4 years old, and the only item that I've ran out of was the foundation (and that lasted almost 2 years before I had to buy a new one)!
Buy a few starter kits (one for the face, and one for the eyes) - you really won't regret it!
Review: not for me Beauty product: 2 Stars
This make up primer didn't do much for me as far as keeping my make up on. It made my skin feel oilier and broke me out.
