Our take on the BareMinerals The Original Get Started Kit Foundation

A three-piece starter set built around BareMinerals Original Loose Mineral Foundation, a talc-free powder that gives light-to-medium, buildable coverage with a natural finish. The kit pairs the powder with a primer and a brush, so it covers prep, base and application in one box. It suits people who want a mineral, non-comedogenic formula and prefer a loose powder over liquid. Against liquid foundations it offers lighter coverage and a more skin-like finish, but less oil control and no full-coverage option.

Questions and answers

Is this kit good for beginners?
Yes. It bundles the foundation, a primer and a brush, so you get the full routine in one box. The powder is forgiving to build up slowly.
Does the foundation suit oily skin?
It works for oily skin when set with a primer and light powder. It controls shine less than a matte liquid foundation, so expect some touch-ups.

Three pieces: the Original loose mineral foundation, a primer and a brush for buffing the powder on.
