CALLING ALL BARE ESCENTUALS USERS

Do you know if the product contains some form of Talc? I posted earlier about breaking out and being told I have a mild case of cystic acne, and can't really place if this started after I began using this line, or before. I believe it was before, because I was using another makeup brand. However, seeing as how I just had a glycolic peel yesterday, I'm wondering if this makeup clogs pores or if anyone else has experience breakouts (whiteheads, blackheads, pimples) on their face or chin? I believe the breakouts are also stress related...but wanted to see what you ladies thought. THanks!

I found the ingredients: · Titanium Dioxide
· Bismuth Oxychloride
· Mica
· Zinc Oxide
· Ultramarines
· Iron Oxides

but would still love your opinions.

I know that I switched because I was breaking out and my skin had become insanely dry so all 'wet' foundations were out. I looooove it. I even had a girl from the store do everyone's make up day of.

My skin has improved a lot. No more breaking out or clogging pores!

For moisture issues, I am using Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion....wow.

Let's see if now that I peeled off that layer of skin and had my face cleansed if the makeup will actually improve my skin problem. I was told I shouldn't wear anything on my face..but the last thing I wanted was someone coming to connect the dots on my face, so I only covered up the spots and applied the mineral veil.

When I started using BE, my face was itchy for the first couple of days. Then I began to break out - clogged pore type of pimples. I have extremely sensitive skin, so I wasn't surprised. Talc is the culprit.

I completely broke out. I spend over $150 In BE makeup. I was so upset that I would have to stop using it. My face was itchy and around my cheeks I had small pimples and red dots. I started to use the clinique face care and used a moistureizer b/c I did feel that my face was so dry when I used the face powder that now my face does not break out in that area. So Now I love BE
