What coverage and finish does bareMinerals ORIGINAL provide?

It builds from sheer coverage to full coverage and leaves a luminous, natural-looking finish. The lightweight mineral powder is designed to soften the appearance of pores and imperfections while keeping the look of makeup understated. For skin with visible pores or fine lines, the formula is made to provide breathable, all-day coverage without settling into fine lines or clogging pores or causing breakouts.

• Start with a sheer layer and add powder to increase coverage.
• Use the buildable format to adjust the finish to your preferred level of coverage.

How does the mineral formula work?

Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide provide SPF 15 protection against UVA and UVB rays. Mica and bismuth oxychloride contribute to the silky, luminous finish, while iron oxides supply the natural-looking mineral pigment. The formula also has a skin-care-focused claim: it is clinically proven to promote clearer-looking skin in 6 weeks.

• Iron oxides provide the foundation’s mineral color.
• The formula is hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic.
• It is made without synthetic fragrance and is cruelty-free.

How do you apply the loose powder foundation?

Swirl the powder into a brush, tap away excess, then buff it onto the skin using circular motions. Buffing activates the powder’s silky, cream-like finish. Add coverage by building the product in layers, moving from a natural glow toward fuller coverage in seconds.

• Swirl the brush through the loose powder.
• Tap off excess before applying.
• Buff in circular motions and add layers as desired.
