Two days ago we had Bare minerals come in. I used the medium range and a pink/red around my eyes and the 'warmth' blush. Instantly I had prickly, tingling, irritation. The rep said it was most likely over buffing from the kabuki bristles. The next day My skin felt hot and raw and this morning I have woken up with extremely swollen eyes, underneath, puffy, heavy and sore. My skin is still very irritated and generally a swollen appearence. Ive been online reasearching reactions to mineral makeup and it looks like Bismuth and carmine are common allergens for some. I was suprised Ive had a reaction because my system is generally pretty hardy and Ive sampled so many different makeups with out any reaction. Mineral makeup is primarily designed with a sensitive skin in mind. so if you are going to use a mineral do a test patch first, especially in my case where Im looking to use makeup on a professional level on a range of individuals. im studying beauty therapy at the moment and we have reps coming in all the time to sell their lines.

I have developed horrible acne that has left scarring on my face due to using Bare Minerals!! I used to have flawless skin and now I am suffering from the scars that Bare Minerals has left me. They have false advertising! They claim to not use fillers! Bismuth Oxychloride is a cheap filler and causes cystic acne!!!! Several friends of mine have stopped using Bare Minerals because they have experienced the same probelems as I have! If you are having acne probelems and you use Bare Minerals now you know why!!!!

I thought I was nuts as I'm the only one I knew of that had the "itching and stinging sensation" when the weather was hot or when I perspired from working out! I just knew it had to be the mineral makeup! No other makeup I've used causes this reaction. I love the way the mineral makeup looks but the reaction is terrible. Now I'll know to look for bismuth oxychloride in the ingredient list. Thanks so much! Angela Wright I’m so glad I found this blog.

They don't use bismuth but the other ingredients are much like the others. Their website says it's for sensitive skin but I don't know what makes it that much better for sensitive skin. You were right...good to read labels. I checked the website for MEOW (the link above)cosmetics and the first ingredient is Mica in all three of their formulations.
