I have oily, sometimes prone-to-blemishes skin. So when it comes to choosing makeup- especially foundation (which I wear almost everyday), I look at the product label and make sure that it has an ingredient to help absorb oil.
So glad I got to try the bareMinerals MATTE SPF 15 Foundation. This makeup foundation really works wonders for my oily skin! I like the medium coverage and this foundation does the trick of enhancing my natural tan color without the shine.
*Product Description:
MATTE SPF 15 Foundation is infused with RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex™ that absorbs excess oil and eliminates shine without drying skin for a flawless, natural matte finish all day. Clinically proven, it delivers extraordinary skincare benefits to dramatically improve the appearance of your skin over time. The foundation is enriched with our unique, proprietary 100% pure RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex, which minimizes pores and promotes cell turnover for fresher, smoother skin while protecting skin from environmental damage.
I like this foundation so much I've taken it to my recent trip in Colorado. The Click, Lock, Go™ sifter packaging works like magic too! There were no spills and leaks in my purse like I've suffered with the powder foundation I previously owned.
bareMinerals MATTE SPF 15 Foundation comes in 15 shades to make you look and feel gorgeous! It's available for purchase at Bare Escentuals Boutiques, Sephora, Sephora inside JCPenney, ULTA, and select Nordstrom, Macy's and spa locations. Retail price: $28
*And good news for you all Hip Mama's Place readers! One lucky reader will win a full-size bareMinerals MATTE SPF 15 Foundation in your choice of shade, plus a brush applicator!

My foundation choice would be fair in fair. rsgrandinetti@yahoo.com
My color is Fair. It's funny because I am sooo ridiculously pale that ivory's are too dark but if you see me face to face you wouldn't believe I have to wear the lightest shades available! I love bareMinerals. Only ones that give me enough coverage on my pasty white skin without looking pink, and no breakouts! YAY!!!
