Bare Minerals All the Favs Review

Hey Everyone!      So, I am catching up on all the reviews that I have meant to do, but with all the crazy things going on in my life right now, even as we speak, I have fallen behind in an unforgivable way! 

Anyways, on with the review!

When I saw this set from Bare Minerals, I knew I had to jump at the chance to buy this so I could try out a few of their products that I had been wanting to for awhile now. I paid $36.00 for this set of mini-sized samples. This set includes their Mineral Veil, a blush in the color The One, an eyeshadow duo in the color The Epiphany, Lash Domination mascara, Moxie lipstick in the color Get Ready, Marvelous Moxie lipgloss in Spark Plug, and their eyeshadow primer and face primer. 










Lets start with the Mineral Veil… this is a very nice face product to top off your foundation. I have tried this in the past and thought that this is a very nice product, yet there is nothing special about this product that makes it stand out from the rest of the powders out there. 



Left: A-Ha
Left: Foreshadow
The eyeshadows are super pigmented! So pigmented that they have a ton of fallout, which is typical for such eyeshadows. These are very soft and apply beautifully, just make sure to tap off your brush so that you don't end up with eyeshadow all over your face.

RIGHT: Foreshadow

A-Ha is a gorgeous metallic champagne color that brightens the eyes. Foreshadow is a true matte chocolate brown. These two colors pair beautifully together and I am glad that this neutral combination cam with this kit because these colors work well with all skin tones.






The blush, The One, is a very pretty baby pink color and is very wearable, but in my opinion looks best on light skin tones. On my cheeks when it is blended out, you can barely see it, even though it swatches very pigmented. This is a gorgeous color, no doubt about it!





I had been hearing rave reviews about their Moxie lipsticks, so I was thrilled when I saw this included in their kit. This comes in the color, Get Ready, a very complimentary rosy color. 







 
The lipstick applies like butter! It has such a smooth application and does not dry out your lips. It is so very moisturizing and comfortable to wear through out the day. It wears well, but has typical wear time and will need reapplication as you go through your day. I definitely want to try more of these lipsticks!








The Marvelous Moxie lipgloss comes in the color, Spark Plug and is a pretty pink color. It adds a nice shine to the lips, but is very sticky. When applied it has a minty scent which causes a slight tingle to the lips. It is not unpleasant or uncomfortable, I just find it very refreshing! This lipgloss is all right in my opinion, but not a standout to me.

Now, as for the primers that come in this kit, I have not tried the foundation primer yet, but when I do, you can bet I will have a review to share! 

The Prime Time Eyelid Primer is excellent! It reminds me a lot of the Urban Decay Primer Potion (my holy grail eyelid primer), but slightly thicker. It works just as well and causes my eyeshadow to last all day, or at least until I take it off! I love this stuff and highly recommend this, especially for oily girls like me out there!



This Lash Domination mascara I have not tried yet, but will once I finish up my Mally Volumizing mascara (which I am in love with!). Once I test this particular mascara out, you will hear from me!

Bare Minerals offers excellent quality products with a few standouts and some products I can live without. If you are interested in trying out a few different products from this particular brand, I recommend you purchase this kit because it has a wide variety for you to test out. 

Hope you have fun playing with this makeup kit, like I did!
