Bare Minerals Matte

Last week I was invited to QVC HQ by Bare Escentuals for a behind the scenes first look at their new bareMinerals MATTE SPF 15 Foundation. Make-Up Artist Sarah-Jane Froom gave an in-depth tutorial on one of the attendees on how to achieve the perfect “airbrushed” look.

The bareMinerals range is actually really nice, we each got a “GET STARTED” kit to take home, which had all the base products in (colour/tone appropriate), three application brushes, and a DVD to show you tips and techniques for bare skin beauty.

A new breakthrough formula designed to absorb excess oil and eliminate shine without drying skin for a natural matte finish all day.
