Everything you need to know about BareMinerals, including where you can find its bestsellers in Singapore

A cult-favourite beauty brand that creates makeup products using natural minerals, BareMinerals has garnered fans from around the world ever since they launched their best-selling mineral foundation in 1995.

Since then, they’ve created 29 more shades of their Original Loose Powder Mineral Foundation, and offer a plethora of makeup that ranges from lightweight eyeshadows to hydrating lipsticks. You’ll also adore BareMinerals’ skincare products that include everything from purifying cleansers to truly nourishing moisturisers.

As the brand was born from the determination to invent makeup products that care for and feel good on the skin, it’s also no wonder that BareMinerals still remains one of the most beloved makeup brands globally.

Why we love BareMinerals’ mineral makeup

Mineral makeup is makeup that’s made with minerals like zinc, mica, and titanium oxide that are ground into a powder then mixed with pigment so as to put colour onto your skin whilst keeping your skin healthy.

It’s not so much the minerals that keep your skin in the pink of health, but that mineral makeup is able to exclude ingredients like oils, preservatives, and chemical dyes so that it doesn’t clog your pores or irritate your skin.

Even if you don’t know much about BareMinerals, it’s likely you would recognise the BareMinerals Original Loose Mineral Foundation that’s made from just five natural minerals, so it’s light on the skin.

Famous faces of BareMinerals

Celebs like Haily Beiber are also no strangers to this brand. Besides being the face of BareMinerals, Hailey’s most recent campaign was done with her mum for the Ageless Phyto-Retinol Collection. She also has a personal relationship with the brand, and she’s used their products for her ballet recitals since she was a kid.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is another one of BareMinerals’ global ambassadors, and her go-to product is the BareMinerals Original Foundation that she sweeps on after concealing the spots or pimples on her face.

The case for BareMinerals makeup stands. Even if you aren’t convinced about whether the makeup takes the best care of your skin, you’ll still adore how the makeup applies to the face and gives a fresh, stunning look.
