Day 5
I can see the makeup kind of caking or flaking around the corners of my mouth and on my t-zone. The ouside corners of my eyes are red and itchy and hurt to the touch.

Day 6
A couple more new pimples sprouting up on my cheeks…
Day 7 (today)
I’m sitting here and the skin around my eyes and around my mouth are tight and dry. I dabbed moisturizer on it but that didn’t help (I use Clinique Moisture Surge) and it kinda made the makeup come off. The outside corners of my eyes are still red and are sensitive to touch. Can’t wait to go home and take this stuff off my face for good.
Conclusion
While Bare Minerals was majorly hyped as being the best skin care you can buy, my conclusion is I will never use these products again (except for the blemish treatment, it really rocks I think b/c of the sulfur). My skin is worse than when I started – I have more pimples and now my face is dry. I’ve noticed that my face is rather itchy as well, probably from it being dry. Hopefully after a week of letting my skin go back to it’s normal daily routine…it returns back to the way it was before I started using bare minerals.
I do highly recommend the blemish treatment. The sulfur in it really does heal pimples quite fast (2 days maybe?) and, if you don’t mind the smell of sulfur, it also serves as a concealer because it’s tinted. I have also been putting it on my old acne marks and it seems to be making those less visible which makes me happy as a clam 
I’ve decided to try Rejuva Minerals and see if that’s better. From what I’ve read so far they are mica and bismuth free so they should cause less skin irritation, pimples and less dryness. Their makeup also has cocoa powder in it making you lightly smell of chocolate! What could be better? Whenever I receive the new makeup I will write a review on that as well.
