I've tried Amazing cosmetics's mineral powder and it has great coverage. I'm wondering about Bare Escentual and how it compares to Amazing cosmetics? |

I haven't tried Amazing, but I have tried BE ... love the way it looks, but it breaks me out every time. I would say the coverage is pretty good -- it gives an airbrushed and glowy finish that many find too shiny. Some find that the shine accentuates and settles into wrinkles. I didn't have this problem with it. Like I said, I love the way it looks on and it breaks my heart that I can't use it. I'm guessing that my problem is with the bismuth in it, although I'm not certain.
If you don't have a problem with breakouts, you might love BE. I still use the BE Warmth blush everyday, and I just adore it.

I've used both, and I think BE has better coverage, but a different finish than Amazing. As we all know, BE has that glowy finish. Amazing is more matte. I keep waiting for BE to put out different finishes of their foundation like some of the other MMu companies do. |

I have never heard of Amazing, maybe I'll give that a try. I love BE, but I would really like a Matte look. |

I've used both, and I would say that the Amazing MMU is more sheer than the BE. The Amazing stuff seems to have a finer grain (?) than the BE. |

Me too. I prefer Bare Essentials than Amazing. |

I used both and I prefer Amazing cosmetics. It covers better and it is matte comparing to BE. |

I have never use Amazing. I tried the BE trial set in Medium. It is a bit too dark for me. However, the texture is quite nice on the skin. |
