This is an excellent foundation. I love it.

I'm in Tokyo - this year we've had incredible heat and humidity, enough so the country declared it an emergency and issued warnings to stay indoors and go to cooling centers. Some days with the heat index is was 103F and 98% humidity or higher - I say all of that to give an idea of the typical conditions I've been wearing this makeup in for july and august, a time of year I normally forgo makeup altogether, but being in my second trimester I'm also "enjoying" some skin changes and pigmentation issues (thanks, hormones) that left me feeling not my best in terms of going bare faced.This stuff was fantastic- coverage is build-able so I was able to go for sheer in areas where I wanted to be a little more 'glow' and build up a more opaque cover where I needed to. I almost put down "no" for easy to apply because it's not necessarily "easy". I consider a BB cream "easy" or a tinted sunscreen where you smear and go "easy" - this stuff (like most bareminerals I've ever dealt with) rewards a little more patience and care in the application, it is blendable but at least for me and my conditions in my apartment (AC running 24/7) I've found it sets pretty quickly, especially depending on what primer I do or do not use - so while it's not the tap tap blend blend blend buff buff buff of the powders, you can't just wipe this on and get a streak-free coverage, plus you know the sunscreen aspect of it, you'd want to make sure you got it on evenly regardless just to make sure you're getting the spf evenly.That said once it's on, it is on!! I use a clarisonic as part of my skin care post-cleanser and if I don't use a cleaning oil or something like a cold cream first, I can definitely see staining on the bristles where bits of this makeup have survived foaming washes and my fingers. It's never run or creased or smeared even if I've sweat during the day - depending on my primer and setting powder, you do get a natural glow (which sounds better than oily sweaty I hate summer sheen) but that's on trend over here anyway. Recently it survived a dat trip to disney from rope drop to close and considering I didn't touch up or reapply, I was really pleased to look as if I was still made up at the end of the day. That said I've had a hard time matching my skin - there's no sephora in easy reach (that I've found) from where I currently live so my skin match is about 3 years and a childbirth old, plus no where to go sample this particular brand as I import it. Ordering by my old foundation number left me with something a lot more orange than I needed, going up and down the shade chart by one for a few orders got ridiculously expensive, but I finally landed on one that works well enough to keep me happy.That said I guess I have to offer some love to the packaging too - the bottle survived being shipped overseas and then dropped a few times by a three year old wanting to help mommy with her makeup :) Also loving the pump bottle - I've been a cargo girl for years before I started having a hard time finding it and the pouch/pour design was fine for life before a little one, but now I can't imagine the messes I'd be dealing with, but with the pump I'm more in control of how much comes out and even if dropped or tipped over - no mess.

It went on smoothly. A little went a long way.

I LOVE this foundation and the color looks great. I did have to change the way I apply the foundation since it dries so easily. With my oil foundation, I was able to spread it on with a blending brush but had to switch to a foundation brush (no big deal). I also have to apply section at a time on my face, again because it dries so quickly. It dries like a powder but does not move or cannot be whipped off. I work out after work and when I get home, I still have most of the foundation on my face. It really makes my face look smooth. I have pretty normal skin (not dry or oily). If your skin is slightly dry... do not use this. It will show flakes on your skin very easily. They have a foundation that is more "hydrating" that I think I will use next. If you want something that will stay... this is your stuff. I really love it.

I love how this makeup makes me look and feel. Not heavy and gives me the best glow! I love bare minerals and have used them since they first started! Great product!!
