Review (5/5): From a Bare Minerals user
I have been using Bare Minerals for years now, and only recently stumbled across the IQ mineral foundation. From now on, I will be purchasing the IQ: Natural Eco-Smart Mineral Foundation. First of all, there is more product in the IQ container than the standard Bare Minerals container. I like the color of the IQ Medium Beige better than Bare Mineral's medium beige. The Bare Escentuals version would be too light during the summer, and too dark during the winter. The IQ seems to work better with my skin tone, and looks more natural on me. The foundation worked well with my existing kabuki brush, and I apply it in the same manner with which I used Bare Minerals. The product makes my skin look great, with natural looking and even coverage, and offers good coverage for acne scarring as well. It did not cause any irritation to my skin, nor did it break me out (which my acne-prone skin has a tendency to do with other products). It feels weightless on and lasts for hours and hours.
More product, lower price, and same great coverage.. IQ: Natural Eco-Smart Mineral Foundation is my new go-to foundation!
