My 18-month-old loves to look at this this book over and over again. ("Gwa!") But I don't mind at all... "Good Night, Gorilla" is one of my favorites.

The pictures tell the story in this book; there are only a handful of words. I love the stunningly vivid and detailed illustrations.

I love these diapers. I will admit I occasionally have leaks, usually at night, but occasionally during the day. Still worth not having the extra chemicals next to a baby's absorbent skin...

I have over 11 GB of music on iTunes and I'm a runner, so the 16GB iPod nano is the iPod I've been waiting for. I had a couple hard drive failures in the past ten years which gave me another reason to hold out for the flash-based iPod nanos to increase their capacity and come down in price. The pric

This isn't for everyone, especially us middle aged women
10/1/2008
I was about 44 when I purchased the kit. It was such a huge disappointment for me, I put it on eBay after using it a few times. This accentuated all the fine lines that come with age. It's very drying even if you use a good moisturizer. While it may be great for younger women, in my opinion, and those of others my age who I have talked to, it's not a great foundation for the 40 and older crowd in general.

Just this year a local TV talk show had a makeup artist on who discussing foundations. She advised that mineral foundations generally do not look good on older skin and advised against them.

I did try two other brands, and found the same problem with each one. Besides that I find them too messy anyway. I hated dealing with all that loose powder. It always ended up with me having to clean my vanity after use.

Not sure if this is true or not so do not hold me to this. I was told by a BE competitor that their minerals used to be pure but are not anymore. Like I said I have no personal knowlege of this. Just repeating what this person told me. Take it with a grain of salt as this is a competing company after all.

Great product, bad price
9/30/2008
I got a sample of this at Sephora, and I do like the product a lot. It applies nicely and feels good, too, but at $25, I'm not too sure I'd buy it. I bought mineral powder makeup by Loreal for about $10 and am just as happy with that and the price is much better. But the coverage is nice and it does feel good on the skin. It's just a matter of how much you want to spend, but if I find something just as good at a lower price, I'm all for buying cheaper and using the savings for savings or more makeup.

Mineral Makeup

This makeup is amazing and makes my skin look flawless. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for coverage that looks minimal, but transforms your skin and diminishes the look of imperfections.

Itchy Upon Application
9/24/2008
I did a lot of research on mineral make-up. I was looking for a solution that would be fast so that I could look half decent when I drop the kids off at school in the mornings! AFter looking at different companies, products, and infomercials - I decided on bareMinerals because they had a range of colors (I'm african american) and because they had longevity and credibility in the marketplace.

I was color matched and then had the make up applied. It looked nice, but not as nice as other make up I have tried. I think it looked a little grey and she tried a variety of the colors that they offered - but it was good enough for me to consider buying the starter kit and play around with it at home.

As I walked the mall with my new purchase, my skin began to itch. And itch. And itch! Twenty minutes later I went back and the sales woman asked me if I was allergic to sunscreen. Uh - no. I answered. She told me to go home and try it with my moisturizer at home - I agreed since there was a 30 day return policy.

I couldn't wait to go home and wash it off. I didn't bother trying it again - I returned the kit and got a refund. Afterwards, I did a little internet research and found that I wasn't the only one with that reaction to the product. Supposedly because bareMinerals has an ingredient (bismuth oxalate) in it which can be irritating to lots of folks. Wish I read that earlier!

THere are mineral make up lines that do NOT have this ingredient, but they did not have a lot of color options - so I just scrapped the whole idea and decided to stick with my laura mercier tinted foundation.

I don't understand the hype
9/24/2008
I have tried to like this foundation. I understand that many women love this stuff. I find that is is caky on my skin. Also the color is not quite right. They seem to think their fair shade fits all fair skin gals and it just doesn't. In certain lights it looks blotchy and yellow on my skin.
