Answer 1

Mineral makeup only means it has no talc in the makeup. It isnt a big deal...works fine, as long as you dont have REALLY oily skin.

Answer 2

It works well as long as you don't put too much on. Your cousin's friend probably was used to seeing makeup on her face and can't break that habit.
Bare Minerals doesn't clog your pores, you control the coverage, it has a natural SPF15 and a little goes a long way.
If you're thinking about getting it and are near either a Bare Escentuals boutique or Sephora, stop in and check it out. They'll be able to help you find the right shade for your skin tone and both carry a starter kit which runs $60-$75. It has 2 foundation shades, warmth, mineral veil 3 brushes and an instructional DVD. If you get the kit make sure to watch the DVD, they show how little you need to use and that it's easier to add more in certain places rather than try to take it off.
Give it a try you have nothing to lose, I know both stores have a good return policy.

Good luck!

Answer 3

I heard that bare minerals cause your skin to itch. Another better brand would be Joppa Minerals. My friend said its really good for acne prone skin and provide better coverage than bare minerals.

Answer 4

Your friend's cousin put it on too heavy. A little bit goes a long way; but you can put it on as heavy/light as you desire. I know a few women who wear it and it looks great. They use Bare Escentuals, and they buy on either QVC or Home Shopping. The women I know that use it are from different ethnic groups; Black, one from India, and two are Chinese so it seems to work for all shades.
