Bare Escentuals New Rare Minerals Moisturizer

Suzanne — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 14:20:15 +0000

Many of us were very sorry to see Bare Escentuals get out of the bath & Body business, but they are making up for it with their expanding skin care line. Now there is a new Rare Minerals Moisturizer, available now to pre-order with a ship date of 12/13/2008. Right now it is a QVC exclusive, but will be available at their other retail outlets later next year.

The official name is Bare Escentuals RareMinerals Purely Nourishing Moisturizer. Here is what Bare Escentuals has to say about it: A breakthrough electrolyte delivery system helps this RareMinerals complex to deeply nourish and hydrate like never before. The blend uses the finest botanicals, antioxidants, and natural emollients to give you incredibly luminous skin.” So far there is no ingredient list available, but the price is decent – $29.18 for 1.7 ounces.

While I was looking around the Bare Minerals skin care, I also found these two Bare Minerals Skin Care kits – it is nice to see them to start offering kits, which makes them more affordable.

Serious Skin Care ProMinerals ProNano Brightening Powder

Has Serious Skin Care outdone Bare Escentuals by making a “new and improved” Mineral Veil? Or is ir an alternative to Rare Minerals? Or is it a makeup primer? Or all of the above?

ProNano Brightening Powder debuted a few months ago. Since then it has received RAVE reviews by users – it is a customer pick on HSN. The instructions say to apply it before makeup – it is intended as a primer to minimize pores, reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, brighten the skin and keep it hydrated while absorbing oil. This is very appealing to me because regular makeup primers cause me to breakout, but because this one is a mineral based powder, I should be OK.

Because it contains cornstarch (a main ingredient in Bare Mineral’s Mineral Veil), people are also using it over their foundation as a setting powder and they seem to be happy with those results as well.

It also contains Emblica Fruit Extract: Natural (a fruit extract that has anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, protects skin cells for anti-aging benefits, natural skin brightener) as a main ingredient – this is also a main ingredient in Rare Minerals and Strivectin.

Here is what HSN says about the product:
Serious Skin Care ProMinerals ProNano Brightening Powder is a state-of-the-art concept in skin care that visibly reduces the look of lines and wrinkles, instantly refines the look of pores, noticeably brightens skin and helps uneven skin tone. You receive .50 oz. of this innovative and powerful loose-powder beauty treatment.Serious Skin Care ProMinerals ProNano Brightening Powder Features: Nanofied, time-released moisturizers and skin-plumping hydrators along with dazzling skin brighteners. Apply directly to the skin with the dusting of a brush. Activated by your skin’s own moisture. Ideal for all skin types. Made in USA.

I’m not sure I would have paid much attention to this product if it weren’t for all of the rave reviews (they are here if you want to read them - Serious Skin Care ProMinerals ProNano Brightening Powder) – but I am very intrigued and want to give it a try! I am out of Rare Minerals – which I love, but have a tough time coughing up $60 for it!, so I will try this instead. I am a big fan of Serious Skin Care ProMineral Foundation and have been wanting to get a kit for awhile – I found and ordered the kit pictured below, the powder is available as a separate item, I love the value of the Serious Skin Care kits! I will try it for a while and post a review.

Have you tried ProNano Brightening Powder? If so, please share your review either here in the comments, or here Mineral Makeup Reviews.

Bare Escentuals Rare Minerals Blemish Therapy

Suzanne — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 17:35:38 +0000

Bare Escentuals has recently expanded their Rare Minerals line by introducing two new Rare Minerals skin care products.

Bare Escentuals Rare Minerals Blemish Therapy is a sulfur based concentrated Rare Minerals treatment for acne and blemishes. It can be used as a spot treatment for existing blemishes or all over to prevent breakouts. Along with the sulfur, it also has tea tree oil, aloe and retinol, along with a 100% pure blend of Rare Minerals. It has a slight translucent tint to help conceal blemishes and even out the skin tone. It can be used alone, over your moisturizer or Rare Minerals our under your mineral makeup. This seems like it would be particularly good for adult acne, because it does not have the harsh ingredients that would dry out or irritate your skin. The first ingredient, zinc is also know for its skin healing and soothing abilities.

Bare Escentuals Rare Minerals Renew & Reveal Facial Cleanser is a dry mineral-based cleanser. It is activated by water and is intended to cleanse, exfoliate and nourish the skin. It contains botanicals and antioxidants. It does not contain any soap, artificial fragrance or irritating ingredients. To use it, you put a half-teaspoon in wet hands and rub them together to “activate” the product and create a lather/foam.While is is definitely different than your typical cleanser, it will appeal to people looking for paraben free and all natural products as well as those who have already seen positive changes in their skin after using mineral makeup.
