Bare Escentuals Mineral Original Foundation swatches

Shades swatched

Bare Minerals Golden Medium

Bare Minerals Medium Beige

Bare Minerals Medium Tan

Bare Minerals Tan

My Shade is either the light or medium beige 

I have swatched all of the foundations very thickly about 3 layers to make them show up 

I like the light because its made for warmer skin tones as it is yellow based

Golden medium is abit too yellow but can be good to cover up redness 

Medium beige blends in perfectly for light to medium beige tone skins like mine 

I would say Nc25 - Nc30 like me 

medium tan would be good for NC35

and tan would be good for NC40 

There are lihter and darker shades in the range but I do not have these 

Why do I have such a huge range ??

Because when I am out I wear alot of bronzer on my face to match my face to my tanned neckline and hands which get alot of sun and sales assistants are insistent that I am the tan and darker shades but as you can see im clearly the medium beige 

Medium beige also happens to be the best selling shade

Most UK/USA caucasian women also fall under this shade as it can be used winter and summer 

I sometimes use the darker colours as bronzer and contour colours 

The good thing about pure mineral makeup is that it will never go off    !!

so this is a good choice for makeup collectors 

Do you use Bare minerals ??
