At a recent wedding, one of the bridesmaids raved to me about bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation ($25). The first day she used it, her coworkers told her she looked like a model. And she's worn it every day since! I'm not big on foundation but the idea of looking like a model was very attractive, so I gave the product a shot.

bareMinerals helps you determine your shade online in a two-step process before ordering, so when the foundation arrived, it was a perfect match for my complexion. The powder is so weightless, you forget you have anything on! While it doesn't conceal every imperfection, it does even out your skin color and leaves your face looking luminous. During the week I wore it, nobody called me a model. Still, the foundation made me feel confident about my skin, and that's the most important thing a beauty product can do.

I'm very curious to try the line's newest foundation, Matte. It's similar to the original but takes away any shine, which is perfect for hot summer months. Bare Escentuals is currently running a promotion where you can take Matte home for a 10-day trial. Click here for more details.
