What is bareMinerals?

bareMinerals is the Foundation that Started the Mineral Makeup Revolution

It began with Bare Escentuals' introduction of bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation. Since 1976, when they opened their first store in Los Gatos, California, Bare Escentuals has been a pioneer in the cosmetic industry with their makeup, made from 100% pure bareMinerals and free of preservatives, oil, fragrance, talc and other skin irritants. Millions of women who swear by their bareMinerals have uncovered the look of beautifully bare skin. With bareMinerals, your search for the perfect foundation is over.

Pure Natural Mineral Makeup from the Earth

Bare Escentuals uses only the finest ingredients in our products. Made with crushed minerals from the earth, 100% pure bareMinerals:

• is free of preservatives, talc, oil, fragrance and other potential skin irritants
• is free of fillers and binders
• is weightless
• provides adjustable coverage—from light to full

Our bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation looks like a powder—yet it's NOT a powder. It feels like a cream and buffs on like silk, giving skin a natural luminosity that stays true all day. All ages and skin types can benefit from bareMinerals—especially those concerned with skin sensitivities, allergies, scars, blemishes, rosacea, wrinkles and pigmentation. The foundation provides impeccable coverage for every skin type and skin tone, and also protects with a natural SPF 15 broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation carries the Skin Cancer Foundation Seal of Recommendation.

And bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation is just the beginning. Bare Escentuals has created creamy, feather-light color for all over your face, cheeks and eyes. Their complete line of loose, powder-like products are 100% pure bareMinerals—this includes their foundation, blush, eyeshadows, glimmers, glimpses and liner shadows, with the exception of Mineral Veil finishing powder.
