IQ Natural Mineral Makeup Set - 12 Piece Bare Matte Foundation Starter Set with Flawless Face Brush

Great product but id recommend going a shade darker. I'm not a tan person and medium was perfect for me. Its a light coverage but definitly buildable if necessary. The concealer is great and did not get into the creases of my skin which oyher high brand name mineral products did for me , the bronzer was a little darker but its pretty, love the blush and the shimmer with it as well. All the eye shadows are nice not as glittery as id have hoped with the honey one. In the picture the only thing I added not IQ is a little glitter to my eyes. They do stay on all day no separation at all if I got sweaty so the primer and mist everything really works..i live in Arizona so that is impressive. I did have a little mess in my box once arrived because the primer leaked a little but no cracks or anything in it. The veil is nice I dont really use them so not the best opinion for that but the brush is a great brush just big. Overall great product, would definitly recommed and will buy again.

I ordered the fair but got the medium and I am so glad I did, the fair would definately have been too light for my complexion.this goes on smooth the brush that comes with it is so soft great quality. The primer is great not oily or greasy feeling. The base goes on so easy and it takes very little to cover my entire face evenly. The concealer really works I applied it before the base and it helped even out my complexion and the dark circles under my eyes disappeared. The blush is the perfect shade to accentuate my cheekbones. the eye shadows have very high pigment a little goes a really long way, not like store bought eye shadows that I'm used to so my first attempt was way too dark. The mineral veil really softens the look again a very little goes a long way... It was so much fun experimenting and learning how to apply this correctly. It is so much better than store bought and works just as well as the much more expensive competitors. I will be buying this again

I have very sensitive mixed skin, prone to allergies, and I avoid makeup foundations like a plague. But unfortunately I have to, because my job requires me to wear makeup (I am a performing artist), so I have to use mineral-based makeup that’s not too harsh on my skin and that covers just enough. BareMinerals is just too expensive for me, and after a bit of research, I decided to go for this one. My skin is pretty fair (not ghostly) with neutral undertones, and after reading the reviews, I decided to choose the shade medium. You get a ton of product: two foundation shades (medium and medium beige), bronzer, blush, eyeshadows, setting veil, primer, setting mist, bisque and a brush. I have to say, I should’ve gone for the fair one as unfortunately, I’m afraid medium (the lighter of the two) is a bit too dark for me. Right now I’m a bit tanned after summer so it can pass, but during winter it will definitely be too dark, so I’ll get a fair one. However, that’s not the reason I’m giving it 4 stars. For the amount of product you get, the price is great. I don’t like the primer - it’s too dry for my skin, so I had to get a new one, better suited for my skin, which is a bit of a pain since I bought this kit because it had one in it. Now, the foundation - it does not give you full coverage, if you’re going for that. I am not, so it works fine for me, but to get a full coverage you’d have to use ton of it! I personally use it to set my under-eye concealer (which I put before), and to balance my skin color, I’m lucky enough not to have any acne and blemishes.. If you do, this is not the thing for you. Bronzer, blush and eyeshadows are VERY pigmented, so go easy on them. Setting veil is the best thing of the whole set, setting mist works great and it dries fast, but you have to spray it REALLY far from the face if you don’t won’t the stains. The brush works just fine. For the price, it really is worth it if you aren’t going for a FULL coverage. It does cover, and it does it good enough, but not enough to give you a whole new skin. I personally prefer that. Would I buy it again? This starter kit is one-time-only thing for me, to try it out; but yes, I’ll continue buying IQ Natural products because it works well for me (except for the primer). Next time I’ll get the foundation (shade FAIR, not making that mistake again), concealer, setting veil and mist. Eyeshadows and blush will last me a long time. All in all, I DO recommend this set if you’re looking for something more “natural” that doesn’t suffocate your skin.

These products make my skin feel as if I'm not wearing makeup at all. It doesn't settle into my skin like I wish it would. It still leaves that powdered finish that can sometimes look cakey around my eyes. I was hoping for a bit better coverage. The concealer is great but there's so little it doesn't last long. I did not like the honey eye pigment. Way too orange tinted for the gorgeous brown eye pigments that it came with. Maybe a more subtle cream color would of been better.
