Foundation Friday Over 50 ~ Bare Minerals BarePro Performance Wear

The NEW Bare Minerals BarePro Performance Wear Liquid Foundation sounds like my perfect foundation on paper! It’s supposed to be matte, smoothing, and long wearing! I’m putting it to the “Angie Test” today to see if it lives up to it’s claims…

The Verdict:

I LOVE & HATE this foundation all at the same time… true to it’s claims, it’s matte, smoothing finish looks great on my skin from a distance, it’s long-wearing & looks great in pictures/video BUT up close, it’s a heavy makeup look that didn’t sit well on my skin, the shades are wonky and I couldn’t find a good match plus it’s really difficult to apply and doesn’t play well with other makeup.

Could be great for people with oily skin who like a full coverage look!

Interestingly, I thought the silk shade in this foundation looked awesome on you, at least on the video it seemed a perfect match to your neck and chest. I might pass on this one, full coverage seems to find every pore and wrinkle on my face. Ooooh, my try the Hourglass lipstick, thanks for including it!

I just found your videos today and love your very thorough foundation reviews.
Could you possibly review the Tom Ford Traceless Foundation.
Also how does the coloring of the Chanel Perfection compare to the Vitalumiere Aqua?
Do you use B40 in both?

Thanks,
Candice

Hi Candice, the Tom Ford is on the list of things to try so I’ll get to it (hopefully soon), I wear Beige 30 in Chanel PLV, I don’t own Vitalumiere Aqua but I think the shades are the same across Chanel’s foundations.

I just returned this foundation. My skin is normally dry and this foundation looked like a dry,cakey mess! I purchased the dry to extra dry moisturizer to wear under the foundation and returned it also. I wear Dr.Jart BB usually , have you ever tested it?

I tried the Dr. Jart BB but there wasn’t a good color for me.

No, I haven’t tried the Hanacure mask, but I’ve seen the hype about it… I’ll look into it.

Angie, will you please do a review of Dior Forever foundation? It has been hyped by other YouTubers, but I’d like your honest opinion.

Angie says:

Sure, I’ll add it to the list!

Hi Angie,

Thanks for this helpful review, I am crossing this foundation off my list to try out.

I am so excited to try that lipstick though : )

Thanks again,
Ruth
