Can anyone offer some advice. I am really wanting to try a new foundation but i can't make my mind up between Bare escentuals or Jane Iredale, there are no samples available and i don't want to spend alot of money and it not agree with me. I am very fair skinned, sensitive skin and prone to breakouts, i also get dry very flaky skin. So could anyone recommend what i try and what shade. I would be really grateful.
many thanks

Both , Jane Iredale and Bare Escentuals have an excellent coverage and they are both using the same natural minerals. I can not say that one is any better or worse than another. In my opinion advantage of Jane Iredale is that they have more chices for light tones. If you are looking for something with yellloew undertone, consider Jane Iredale loose powder Bisque. If you are on cool side , take Jane Iredale cool sand.
From BAre Minerals, #1 Fair is the lightest one. #1.2 Fairly Light has yellow undertone.
Also if you have dry skin, I would definitely go with loose powders intead of pressed. You can always mix some loose powder into your moisturizer.

Thanks alot for the advice on the foundations. Can i just ask i am not sure if i have yellow undertones or cool all i know is that i am very pale so would the cool sand be ok. I am a bit worried that it is a powder rather than a cream it won't dry my face will it? would i need to buy a brush and do you apply it like a normal powder. Sorry for all the questions but i want to be sure before i buy.
many thanks Jody x |

| I've never used Bare Escentuals so I can't compare, but I've been using Jane Iredale for a year and LOVE it. I use the pressed powder in Amber (because I have fair skin with a slightly yellow undertone) and the blush in Sheer Honey and Dubonnet. I have very sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin, and the coverage is really great. Doesn't make my skin breakout, it doesn't wear off or cake up. Highly recommended! |
