Happy Sunday loves! Today we’re talking make up-woohoo! Specifically the Bare Minerals barePRO liquid foundation. Ever since I became a mom I’ve noticed that my want and expectations for make up have changed. I sleep less and am up earlier. I work for 8+ hours, and usually after I’m still running around like a mad woman, running errands, cleaning, cooking, you name it.
As a mom I feel like I’m constantly putting foundations to the test and without even trying. I purchase so many different ones that claim to be long lasting and matte from the drug store to high end and there has been a few that have definitely stuck out and became must haves.
I have been on the hunt for a new foundation that’s light weight but has buildable coverage and most importantly is compatible with my skin type. I have combination to oily skin. I love the Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation and the coverage on that is unbelievable! However, to me this is not an every day wear foundation because it is a bit heavy for my preference.
I was strolling through Ulta before my Seattle trip and noticed the Bare Minerals area, I have been wanting to try their products since high school, but to be honest, I never got around it. I decided to go with barePRO because they claims were exactly what I was looking for:
- Good-for-skin
- 24-hour wear
- Lightweight
- Full coverage liquid foundation with a natural matte finish
Yes please!
I put it to the real test when I went on vacation to Seattle and wore it for 8 + hours, walking and sweating and it stayed in tact the entire time. It didn’t settle in my fine lines which are usually within my mouth and nose areas, and I found that it did stay matte through out most of the day. Usually with other foundations with in 2-4 hours I already see my t-zone getting oily and with this foundation I noticed I went matte up to 6+ hrs.
I love the finish of it too, it really does make my skin look natural but it has amazing coverage. If you have combination to oily skin and I really think you might like this one. I’m in the shade sable 21. Let me know if you decide to pick it up and how you like it!
Till’ the next post!
