Is anybody still using Bare Minerals? How's it doin' for you? Any tips for a new user? Like... is it really noncomedogenic?

Well, I think I'm in the minority, I don't care for it all that much. I find it takes a lot to cover, it does not wear well and am I the only person who hates all the 9000 little jars you have to have and have to turn over to see what colr/type/item you have in hand? I do love the brushes. Not to mention with all the swirling, tapping and blending, more product gets all over the bathroom sink than on my face.

My roomie swears by Philosphy products, but I hate those too. I would not mind if thing were IDd with something remotely recognizable at 6am when I am bleary-eyed in the bathroom washing my face, but to me, "Hope in a Jar" "When Hope is Not Enough" or "Help me" does not translate to moisturizer (or whatever the hell it is). I don't think washing my face needs to be so complicated and hard at after 40!

But hey, it's just me. I still love Rachel Perry products for cleansing and for make up, Borghese colors are to die for, not cheap, but then neither is Bare Minerals.
