It's about time for me to buy a new foundation and I was thinking of getting the Bare Essentuals. The only thing is I'll have to order it from Sephora without trying it, so I was wondering what those of you who have used it think of it. Also, what color would I get for a golden light-medium tan skin tone?

I would get the medium starter pack thing...I can't remember what it's called. It comes with Medium and Medium Beige which are basically the same shade with different undertones. I use both of them depending on the time of year.

I started with the Medium/Med Beige kit and found out when I went to the BE Boutique in Cincinnati that I should be using Light instead. Go figure! I mixed in the Mediums over the summer with a tan, so the stuff is very forgiving!

If you want to try foundation samples before buying a kit, try www.colorfulsprinkles.com (free shipping code SHIPBE). Amazing service and great prices--no, I'm not associated at all with that site, just an extremely happy customer!

Question about a product

Ladies,

Through another website (and speaking with one other person that's used this), I've found out about a product called
"Model in a bottle". Have any of you used it before? It's supposed to keep your makeup in place and give you a nice, matte finish. I'd be interested to hear what you think if you've used it.

I'm interested in using it.

I have tried some of everything. I even sell (when I feel like it) Color Me Beautiful products which includes Flori Roberts. I have loved wearing make-up as early as I could get away with it (12-13 years old). I love Clinique and Lancome. On the cheap, I love Cover Girl and Revlon.
