I hope you ended up getting the “Skin Type Solution.” I just read it and I’m really impressed with Dr. Baumann’s method of identifying skin types. It’s helped me select the proper products for my skin and I’m now using sunscreen every day.

The more you put on, the better it looks. Just for everyday, I use one or two layers, but if I am really looking for good coverage, I will wear 3 or 4. BareMinerals DOES contain Mica - here is the list of active ingredients: · Titanium Dioxide · Bismuth Oxychloride · Mica · Zinc Oxide · Ultramarines · Iron Oxides Thanks for the comment, Laura - I hope that helped somewhat. :) Hi Laura – I use the loose powder – and you need more than one application to get it even.

In this case I'm really interested in your method of application. Did you try the pressed version, or just the loose? What kind of brush did you get for it? Also, from whom did you order it? I ordered it through a place who wouldn't accept my request to return some of the items I got which I found were not what I expected. Also, this is the brand without mica, correct? I can't have mica because my skin is THAT sensitive. I'm really interested in finding the right mode of application for this stuff before I go ahead and splurge on it though. The loose powder went on a little unevenly. I wonder if the pressed is better, or what have you. Any comments?

I am going to get Leslie Baumann's book I think - I have now heard several good references for it, thanks for sharing that! I’m having a large time with Mom, thanks Gail. :)

I used to be so lazy about using any SPF. I recently read Leslie Baumann's Skin Type Solution and found a ton of information regarding my specific skin type...never again will I forget to use sun screen! Plus, in reading about the BSTS ( Baumann Skin Type Solution ), I discovered that there are more than 4 skin types...there are 16! I'm glad to hear your face wasn't harmed, Christine...and get some aloe for the rest of you! Ouch! I used to be so lazy about using any SPF.
