It is perfect for young active women and has SPF 19. It is approved and recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation. This gentle mineral foundation comes in 10 shades that match any skin color. L'Oreal Paris: Bare Naturale Gentle Mineral Makeup works great for all skin types, and is even recommended for sensitive skin.
A note to people with oily skin: do not treat this as a powder formula that will soak up oil. Too much will feel thick and actually make skin oilier. This is for people that do not need a lot of coverage and who just want a sheer light powder layer to make the face feel less "naked."
For people with dry skin, a good moisturizer should be applied beforehand. Even though L'Oreal Paris: Bare Naturale Gentle Mineral Makeup is not used for oil control, it will cause dry skin to appear tight. Using a moisturizer eliminates this risk. This also applies to those with sensitive skin.
This mineral powder foundation is perfect for women on the go that do not like to spend a lot of time applying make-up. It is also mistake proof when it comes to blending. You don't have to worry about lines under the neck or by the ears. The brush blends powder evenly all over the face.
Finding the right shade for your skin type will require some time and testing, and this part can not be taken lightly. The correct shade is what enforces all of the great features like flawless blending and even skin tone. Most drug stores with a cosmetic isle will have a shade tester that you can hold to your skin to see if it is a match.
This product cost on average $14 and can be found wherever L'Oreal Paris products are sold.
