Bare Escentuals RareMinerals(TM) Renew & Reveal Facial Cleanser 2.5 oz

Customer Review: Great for Sensitive Skin
I agree with most of the reviews here. I have very sensitive skin and a lot of allergies--my skin easily gets red and itchy. This product didn't bother me at all! My skin has been relatively trouble free since I began using it about 7 and half months ago--my skin looks and feels very nice. I rarely got any blemishes previously, but now I get even fewer!
Customer Review: Best cleanser I've ever used!
My skin is very sensitive and this is by far my favorite cleansing product yet - no irritation and my skin is much softer!

Bare Escentuals Tutorials - Rocker Eye ($61 Value) Tutorials - Rocker Eye

Customer Review: Not as sparkly as I'd hoped
I have been a Bare Minerals addict for over five years now--it is all I ever wear. There have been very few products of theirs that have failed to completely thrill me, and I am disappointed to report that this is one of them. When I saw this kit in the Bare Escentuals Boutique, I knew I had to have it. The eye colors looked so sparkly, it was as if they had glitter in them. As a Middle Eastern dancer, I often add glitter to my eye makeup looks for performances, and I was hoping that buy getting this kit, I could eliminate that extra step. Unfortunately, the colors were not as sparkly on my eye as they were in the jar. Unless you're about six inches away from the person wearing these colors, they look pretty much the same as Bare Minerals' "Meet the Stones" wearable eye kit, which I already have. I think you'd have to apply a very thick layer of powder to get as much sparkle as I would have liked, and then it'd probably look like I was running around with black eyes. The product description describes the Black Leather Liner Shadow as "glistening blackest black," but I found that it was neither "glistening" nor "blackest black." I gave up on it and used Bare Minerals' "Onyx" black liner shadow instead. For a beautiful and dramatic nighttime look, I much prefer Bare Minerals' "Smoky V" eye kit. The purplish hues of those smoky colors are a lot less harsh. They're not sparkly, sadly, but I've always achieved good results with that kit, and the colors work equally well for day or nighttime looks. The Rocker Eye kit, on the other hand, I'd only ever wear for dance performance, Halloween, or perhaps a special night out on the town. If you're set on a grayish smoky eye, I'd recommend Bare Minerals' "Meet the Stones" wearable eye kit. You get pretty much the same three colors as in the Rocker Eye kit (they're just not sparkly in the jar, but the finished look is about the same), but the "Stones" kit is cheaper and the jars contain twice as much powder.
Customer Review: Good value, tough to master
I am very good at my day time eye makeup look, and wanted some glam and glimmer for a night time look. The eyeliner is tricky, but I think I will eventually get the hang of it. Even trying to use a very light hand I wound up with WAY too much black eye makeup on (it wasn't pretty). In all fairness, dark makeup is what one should expect from a "Rocker" Eye kit. Maybe I just wasn't ready for that much glam.
