Bare Minerals revolutionary makeup that is good for your skin
Bare Minerals is different. We started the makeup revolution... With flawless coverage that feels invisible. It's makeup that's good for your skin. It's a breakthrough, unlike any makeup you've ever used. Bare Minerals will change the way you think about makeup. It's about confidence... Not covering up. Bare Minerals doesn't just change your skin... It can change your life. You know you're gorgeous, so get inspired... And say hello to beautiful. 100% pure Bare Minerals is not like any other makeup. It looks like beautiful, bare skin, and yet it covers whatever you want it to. So say hello to Bare Minerals and good-bye to all the foundations that made big promises and never delivered.
...And it would stick to my skin and it would feel like a blanket was over it, and it would be shining...
...And I would have to really cake it on and...
...And then use, like, a blow dryer on the cool setting and to dry it.
Like, people would comment. They'd be like, "what is that?" and I'm like, oh, god, it's my makeup, you know?
Announcer: Free yourself from your old makeup forever. 100% pure Bare Minerals is so different, it actually started a revolution. Bare Minerals is the original. It is different from every other makeup out there. It's changed the way women feel about their skin, and it all started behind a makeup counter where Leslie Blodgett, executive chairman of Bare Escentuals and creator of Bare Minerals, started her career.
Right after high school, when I went to college, I lived in New York City and I worked behind the cosmetic counter. Women would talk about how they hated their foundation. Something needed to happen. We needed, um, a change.
Announcer: Leslie insisted makeup could feel invisible, cover flaws and actually be good for your skin, and the Bare Minerals makeup revolution was born.
I am so excited to tell you all about Bare Minerals. I could talk for hours, really, but I promise I won't do that to you. The main reason we even wear foundation is for the coverage, and we can all use a little bit of that. Whether it's for uneven skin tone or redness or blotchiness, or even more serious issues, and Bare Minerals is the master of coverage, but it does it in a very special way. You see, it covers completely but it also looks perfectly natural, because you want people to look at you and not your makeup.
It made my face look great and it covered up that Melasma really well. I was very pleasantly surprised with how my face looked, and even my husband came in and he was like, "wow, you look beautiful," and I thought, "O.K., well, then I'm keeping this makeup." [laughs]
Announcer: No matter what skin type you have, no matter what skin condition or skin tone, now you can cover imperfections without ever masking your own natural beauty. Best of all, today you can start going bare for a price you won't find anywhere else... Not available stores, our exclusive tv-only offer includes our original foundation in a revolutionary, new, spill proof package. We have some fantastic free gifts for you too, so stay tuned. Coming up next, we'll show you how to transform your complexion with 100% pure Bare Minerals.
Do you want a gorgeous complexion in less than a minute? Here's what you do. O.K., let's get started with Lauren. Hi, Lauren.
Hi.
So, as you can see, Lauren has some blemishes that she wants to cover. But before we get started, what shade are you wearing?
I'm using light.
Great, and tell us what you're doing.
Um, I'm just kind of gently dabbing Bare Minerals over all my problem areas.
And let's show everyone your brush. This is the maximum coverage concealer brush. I love this brush, and if you watch Lauren, you're going to see what great concentrated coverage she's getting. What I love about Bare Minerals is that it acts like a foundation and a concealer. So, great, what are you going to do next?
Now I'm going to switch to the flawless application brush.
O.K., so now I'm going to show you the special technique that we designed just for Bare Minerals. So Lauren's going to take a little bit of Bare Minerals in the lid, she's gonna swirl, she's gonna tap off the excess, and she's gonna buff Bare Minerals right into the skin. This is so easy to do. I want you to see how every blemish is covered. O.K., let's say hi to Ryan. Hi, Ryan.
Hi.
So Ryan told me that she's been living with acne scarring for about 10 years now. And Ryan, would you mind if I showed everyone your scars?
Sure.
She told me that it really affected her self-esteem. Luckily about a year ago she discovered Bare Minerals, and she gets such amazing coverage that I'd like you to watch her doing this real-time. So just take a look at that. Can you believe how that covers? Wait-- this is our brand-new innovation. It's called our click-lock and go sifter. Let me show you how it works. So you open it up, and you can see the holes in the sifter, and then you shake out the Bare Minerals into the lid and when you're done, you close it till you hear that click, and that locks it. And I'm telling you, nothing will ever come out of it. You can throw it in your makeup bag, mess-free, completely portable. The best invention ever. So back to you, Ryan. She's swirling, tapping and buffing Bare Minerals in the deep shade onto her skin. Now you guys remember what she looked like when we got started? She had a lot of scarring on her skin. Look at her now, just look in the camera. Unbelievable. You look beautiful. And here's Sharon, wearing the tan shade, right?
Right.
So Sharon told me that she experiences redness around her cheeks and she's just starting to see lines and wrinkles around her eyes. And you know, the last thing you want to do is to accentuate the lines and wrinkles with, with your makeup, so... Why don't you look into the camera and I want to compare your before and after. You can see that there's no more redness on her cheeks, and her lines actually look less noticeable. And now just a touch of warmth on your nose and cheeks for that beautiful, instant healthy glow. [..., no voices] and finally, this is Tasha. And Tasha has uneven skin tone from sun damage, but you wouldn't know it because she's covered it with the medium shade. So if you'll look at her you can see she's got really good coverage, but her skin looks smooth and naturally luminous, really nice. And you told me that you have combination skin, right?
Right.
So Tasha gets some dryness around her mouth, on her nose and on her forehead, and I just want to show you something, one of the many reasons that Bare Minerals is so different. It looks like a powder, but when you touch it, it's very soft, very, very silky, and when you apply it, it actually applies like a cream. So if you have dry skin, it actually is a perfect product for you. So next, our finishing touch. I'm going to take a little bit of mineral veil on the lid, a teeny little bit, and you're gonna swirl, you're gonna tap, and you're gonna buff mineral veil onto the skin, and it'll give you the look of smaller pores, it'll soften lines and wrinkles, and it'll give you just that airbrushed perfection. So now I want you to look into the camera so we can see that great before and after... It looks terrific. As many times as I've seen these kinds of transformations, I am still blown away.
Announcer: With four shade kits to choose from, you'll find a perfect match for your own skin tone, guaranteed. That's the Bare Minerals promise.
My skin tone's hard to match. So I'm able to... Have this color, a true color that's me. I love Bare Minerals.

I've actually been known to walk up to women in our boutiques and tell them to call 1-800-975-0925 because you get so much more stuff in this offer.
Announcer: 100% pure Bare Minerals covers imperfections to reveal you. Laugh as much as you want, play anywhere you like, and follow your heart wherever it takes you. Bare Minerals... Experience the original. Recently, in an independent study, 200 women went on a kind-of blind date with Bare Minerals foundation. Their reaction? 98% said it made their skin softer, smoother and younger looking, and that was before they knew it was Bare Minerals.
This is smooth, it's nice and it covers... I like that.
I literally, I take my, um, concealer brush with the foundation and I put it on and it's, it's like having an eraser in your hand.
I just feel like it makes me look more younger and it just makes my skin look very glowy, luminous, and I feel very confident.
I travel all the time. I'm always touring the country, doing events and meeting women. And I have met thousands of wonderful women and I have received thousands of letters over the years, and what I love is that women tell me that Bare Minerals has changed their life.
My cystic acne was diagnosed when I was an adult. I used to have all breakouts right here, right here, all right here. I've tried everything. I've tried everything-- lasers, microderm, all the treatment, all the medication, everything.
Allison wrote me a letter and she told me how difficult it was living with her acne. And I'm telling you, I have heard from so many women with those same issues. And what you might not know is that your liquid foundation might be part of the problem. But Bare Minerals is different because Bare Minerals won't clog your pores, it won't aggravate your skin and it won't harm your skin. Bare Minerals will actually improve your skin.
Bare Minerals just enhances that natural beauty. It's not about masking you. It's about bringing out the real you. I can easily say that Bare Minerals changed my life. I can easily say that, without a shadow of a doubt.
It's those stories from women, where they have newfound confidence, where they've never felt better about themselves. That's why I love my job.
Announcer: Bare Minerals gives you the confidence that you can cover whatever you want, and keep it covered until you take it off. But experience is the ultimate judge, which is why at a recent event in San Diego, we asked women who hadn't tried Bare Minerals what was holding them back.
I'm not a big fan of makeup in general.
Well, I use... I saw so many different powders.
Because my friends, they were telling me, "don't even think about powder, now that you get wrinkles... No, no, it's gonna mark the wrinkles. If it's shiny, forget it."
Announcer: What did our skeptics think once they tried Bare Minerals? See for yourself.
It feels good. It does, it makes you feel, "oh, geez, you just took 10 years off my face." how cool is that?
I look great and I don't... I'm not layered with lots and lots of product.
I like it. I don't see the wrinkles that I see with the liquid foundation.
It's not drying at all. I think it's less drying than a liquid foundation. It looks great. I didn't think my skin could look this good, really.
Announcer: If you've never tried Bare Minerals, we'd love to show what we can do for you. After all, seeing is believing. And take a look at this. Why should you say good-bye to liquid foundation? Simple: Bare Minerals goes on smooth and even, but liquid is sticky and goopy. Liquid foundation adds weight and mess. But Bare Minerals is light as a feather. Bare Minerals is different. It's not like liquid, and it's not like other mineral makeup either.
So the latest question I'm hearing about these days is, "what about those other mineral makeups?" and to be honest with you, I worry. I worry that women are having bad experiences, because I hear from women all the time who've tried other mineral makeup, and what they find is that Bare Minerals is different. It's the real deal, the original. Don't assume they're all alike-- they're not. You can trust Bare Minerals.
Not all mineral makeup is the same. There are minerals in it but there's a bunch of other ingredients in there that I would like to avoid. But Bare Minerals doesn't include any of that. It's just like five ingredients on the label... That's really re-assuring.
I can just put on my face and I won't feel like I'm packing lots of chemicals and other things that are gonna really harm my skin and make me wake up the next morning with, like, a big pimple in the middle of my forehead.
Announcer: Bare Minerals is the original. It's makeup so pure, you can sleep in it. Bare Minerals gives you the flawless, natural looking coverage that you want, without any irritating chemical ingredients. And it even protects your skin with natural spf-15 sunscreen. Women with dry skin, mature skin, even women with sensitive skin are discovering it's beautiful to go bare.
Hi, Krista.
Hi, Leslie.
So Krista has some extremely sensitive skin and some serious issues with redness, but nothing we can't handle. I'm gonna show you how we're gonna get some amazing coverage, but I need the camera guy to come in really close so you can see this. I'm gonna just take the maximum coverage concealer brush on one side of her face only. This is pre-concealing, and you can just see the redness just disappear-- can you see that? This is so great for Krista 'cause she has sensitive skin and it has that natural spf-15 which is great protection for her. And another great part about this is that it's weightless, so she can get this terrific coverage without ever feeling it on her skin. All right. Now for the best part. I'm gonna use the flawless application brush. I'm gonna swirl it and tap and I'm gonna buff, again, just this side of her face. And you can see how this is the perfect shade for her, it blends right in... Conceals that redness... In just a couple of seconds. Now, I'm gonna show you the covered side... I'm gonna go all the way over so you can see her redness, and back again. Wow, amazing coverage. Thank you so much, Krista.
Thank you.
Announcer: Right now we have a great new offer for you. Our get started kit now includes everything you need to get flawless coverage and a fresh, new favorite. Click-lock-go gives a spill proof way to take Bare Minerals foundation with you wherever you go. This is makeup bag friendly makeup. Plus we have a truly fantastic bonus gift collection for you that you won't find anywhere else. Best of all, all this is yours for over 75% off what you would pay at retail. For your foundation, choose from light for the lightest complexions, medium for the beige-toned skin that most women have, tan for olive or tanned skins, or deep for darker complexions. Whether you order by phone or online, we'll help you choose just right shade. We promise a perfect shade match or you get a full refund of your purchase price, guaranteed. You'll also receive warmth, an all-over face color that provides a natural, healthy glow instantly. And you'll get mineral veil, the ultimate finishing touch for a luminous, airbrushed look. And only Bare Minerals includes the flawless application brush, the secret to a beautifully blended flawless finish.
Bare Minerals is my miracle.
The brushes are superb. They're professional quality brushes.
The Bare Minerals warmth gives my skin a sunny glow.
A little mineral veil, and I'm out the door. And I never have to re-apply.
It's not expensive, it lasts for such a long time.
Bare Minerals will change your life.

Lock in this special value and receive a new supply of Bare Minerals delivered right to your door and be among the first to sample new products from Leslie. You live boldly, feel passionately, act authentically. That's you, and that's gorgeous. 100% pure Bare Minerals is so different, it actually started a revolution. Other foundations can contain unnecessary ingredients. We wanted to see what that would do to something really delicate, so we applied Bare Minerals and liquid foundation to the petals of the same flower and watched. See what happened when we left it on for a day? We don't add any of that junk because it's not good for you and you don't need it. Bare Minerals is different. It's not like liquid and it's not like other mineral makeup either. Experience the original. No matter what your skin tone, skin type or condition, Bare Minerals is you.
Women often ask me, "who can use Bare Minerals?" the answer is, everyone. If you have oily skin, sensitive skin, combination skin, or even mature skin. But Iíll tell you, my biggest skeptics are those with dry skin. They think it's gonna settle into their lines and emphasize them, and that is totally not true. Bare Minerals is perfect for dry skin because Bare Minerals is creamy and will diffuse and soften lines and wrinkles and you'll actually look even younger.
I have dry skin and I thought, "minerals... Dry skin..." minerals is a powder. Is this really gonna work... [chuckles] on my dry skin? It, it really does. It really made my skin glow. Bare Minerals is the only foundation I would ever use, ever.
I tell everyone that I know about Bare Minerals, every woman that I know, because of what it's done for me, personally. Being able to cover my Rosacea in a matter of minutes was... It was a miracle. I used it from watching an infomercial one night when I couldn't sleep, and it changed my life.
Announcer: Experience the transformation yourself. With Bare Minerals it's easy to create a flawless finish that looks and feels like beautiful, bare skin.
So Ryan told me that she's been living with acne scarring for about 10 years now. And Ryan, would you mind if I showed everyone your scars?
Sure.
She told me that it really affected her self-esteem. Luckily about a year ago she discovered Bare Minerals, and she gets such amazing coverage that I'd like you to watch her doing this real-time.

And I'm telling you, nothing will ever come out of it. You can throw it in your makeup bag, mess-free, completely portable. The best invention ever. So back to you, Ryan. She's swirling, tapping and buffing Bare Minerals in the deep shade onto her skin. Now you guys remember what she looked like when we got started? She had a lot of scarring on her skin. Look at her now, just look in the camera. Unbelievable.
Announcer: Even out skin tone with Bare Minerals foundation. Then add a touch of warmth for that healthy glow. And a final sweep of mineral veil to lock in that look of airbrushed perfection. Don't trust your complexion to any other makeup. No matter what your skin tone or skin condition, 100% pure Bare Minerals covers imperfections to reveal you.
But I know that there are some of you that are still on the fence, and this is what I recommend for you. I think you should get on the phone with someone you trust, whether it's a friend or a family member-- I know that you know someone who already loves Bare Minerals-- and ask them for yourself, let them tell you how fabulous Bare Minerals is.
A lot of people will ask and say, "hey, you know, what are you wearing? Your skin looks so good." and I am so happy to say, "oh, I'm wearing Bare Minerals," even though it's my secret. Maybe I shouldn't tell anybody.
I don't feel like I'm wearing makeup.
I just feel more confident.
My firsthand experience is all mineral makeup is not the same. I've purchased another mineral makeup that was convenient on my way to this meeting. It was horrible. The mineral makeup was not the same. It did not cover, I had streaks on my face from the bronzer. The reality is, Bare Minerals works fantastic and there's just a tremendous amount of value with it.
Announcer: 100% pure Bare Minerals is makeup that's good for your skin. It covers completely and always looks beautifully bare.
If you're looking for coverage, Bare Minerals is great for you. If you want a product that has a natural sunscreen in it to block U.V.A. And U.V.B. Rays, Bare Minerals is for you. If you have issues with sensitivity and you have Rosacea and acne, Bare Minerals is for you. And if you're looking for something pure and good for you that improves your skin, then you're gonna love it.
