Target Bare Minerals knock-off

[plgrn]

Anybody tried it? I know it's only about $13 as opposed to BE at $25, but I'm afraid to chance it!

If it would give me the same coverage and not make me itchy then I would go for it. There's alot of copycat brands now.

I love BM. I wouldn't do without it. I'm not sure if I would try a knockoff of it though. Mine lasts forever so it doesnt seem so expensive in the long run.

I just bought the Loreal version and I like it so far. I've never tried BM/BE so I have nothing to compare it to

Just bumping this up because I am curious too.

I tried Everyday Minerals but I didnt' care for it. Many people love it though. A girl I work with says it's just as good for her. Maybe it depends on your skin...

Same here. I am too loyal too BM and I would never risk it Does anyone ever want to e-mail Leslie Blodgett and tell her what nuts she has turned us into??

I haven't tried it but can you tell me if the Target version is a whole *line* of products like BE? Reason I ask is that I have tried the Physician's Formula and Loreal "knockoffs"; however, each of them only have a foundation. They do not have a Mineral Veil product which, in my case, is the key to this stuff looking great on me. They also don't have any Warmth, Well-Rested, etc; i.e., the "whole package" thing going that BE does.

I'm not sure that I'd even be happy with the BE foundation alone, so I guess until a storebrand comes up with a whole line, I'll be sticking with BE.

I recently tried Everyday minerals and like it much better than BE. They have a matte formula so I'm not constantly battling the shine like I do with BE. The fact that it's about half the price is a nice bonus.

I like the Loreal products, but have never used BM to compare.

What is Target's return policy? Maybe that would influence your decision to give the product a try. I tried the everyday minerals sample kit a while back and didn't care for it. I usually buy all my BE through colorfulsprinkles.

Good luck.

I tried the Avon version and ick! It was horrible...I am too squeamish for anything but BE at this point.

CRAAAAAP!!

I just ordered a bunch of stuff YESTERDAY.

Today is not a TSV day for BE. It's just a regular visit for BE with a show at 3PM ET. There was also a show at 3AM ET, but I think most of us slept through it.

There will be a BE TSV on 2/10. It wasn't listed in the QVC Insider magazine for February, so hopefully we'll find out what it is very soon. I should have a listing of what will be offered in that show posted in my forum around 2/1.

Are you sure? It looks like shoes are the TSV.

Would you let us know when you find out? I'm due to order more BE but I think I can get by for another month if it's a good deal. Thanks
