Return to Radiance

I cannot wait to come back to QVC on March 3 to share with you the most radiant of all Today’s Special Values. Perfect timing, too. Winter isn't always so nice to our skin and it can take a while to get it perked up and revived after being abused by the dry air and cold temperatures. This collection will solve your dull skin problems and bring your natural radiance to the surface. 
bareMinerals Return to Radiance 8-piece Collection
I'm so happy to introduce you to our brand-new Prime Time Neutralizing Foundation Primer. I've been using this stuff for over a year. It's outstanding and here's why: it visibly calms the skin, reducing the appearance of redness. When you pump it into your hand, you will see it has a yellowy tone. That's a very good thing; when you spread it on and blend it into the skin, it visibly evens skin tone. Some of you live with redness every day, so you will love how quickly this camouflages. Whether it's rosacea, irritation, breakouts, or flushed skin, our new Prime Time Neutralizing Primer will tone it all down while continuing to perform as the ideal foundation primer for long wear and flawless blendability. I don't always have redness, but I always need a bright boost and this primer will do it fast.
 
Brand-new bareMinerals READY Blush using our solid mineral technology…you knew it was coming, right? Once we launched bareMinerals READY eyeshadows in the fall, you were preparing yourselves for the big news. We've included our SeaNutritive Mineral Complex and cold-pressed camellia oil for softer, smoother skin. The color is called The Natural High, and it will make you a fresh-faced girl in no time. (I mean, girl, because the shade is soooo youthful).  Silky, long-wearing, and 100% portable, it comes in a fab compact with a brush (we put the brush in there for emergencies onlyuse one of our blush brushes for effortless application).
 
OMG. Marvelous Moxie Lip Gloss. A winner. I'm a lip gloss snob and this shade is completely nailed. In Love, a perfect match for The Natural High blush, I would say this shade is a neutral with a pink pearl. It pulls the whole look together. The special natural flavors give you that full feeling so you feel it working. Gorgeous. I hope we make this a regular shade because it is clearly going to be a fave.
 
Prime Time Primer Shadow in Nude Glow is just in this kit. Champagne and stunning. Wear it all alone or feel free to put any eye shadow on top of it. Such a huge relief not to have to worry about your eye shadow fading or traveling. Color stays true to the shade you applied first thing in the morning. Easy, easy and so chic.
 
Now, I actually saved the best for last. Many of you have already heard of these products, ;) but they are by far the most seriously hard-working and extremely- good-for-your complexion products. Just even sitting here typing gets me feeling extremely passionate about this. Millions of women around the world have discovered the long-term benefits of bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation and Bisque Concealer. Skin has been changing for the better for years now. Dozens of awards have been received and letters written to me about how this foundation has changed lives. When you buff on bareMinerals, you are giving your skin a second chance to be better. Your skin will be free of ingredients that are just not needed and you'll get coverage without ever feeling like you have foundation on. bareMinerals has always acted more like skin care than makeup. It's so easy to apply and the benefits are so long-lastingthe great thing is that you can feel the benefits happening the minute you start. I can go on for hours, days...even longer talking about the beauty of bareMinerals Foundation and Bisque Concealer. Nothing comes close to providing you with more radiant, natural-looking skin.
 
Oh, and you get brushes too.  ;). 
 
I can't wait to see you on March 3. I miss you guys.
 
Love,
Leslie

Hi Leslie,

I'm so looking forward to the shows. The TSV looks and sounds so interesting, I can't wait for the presentation. I was just looking at the BE page here and am interested in the Mascara and Brow Duo. I haven't tried the new brow yet, (I have the darkblonde/medium brown minerals for my brow) but want to try it, it has so many good reviews.

I'm so excited to see you and all of the shows. The TSV sounds really great. I have already gotten 2 of the Ready Blushes during preview Night and I love them along with the Ready Eyeshadows! I own alot of the Duos, 2 Quads and both 8.0's. Be gal here for 15 + years!!!

Please tho, I beg of you Leslie, please address the Round the Clock pencils 'former?' issues and that they have been fixed. I love them when they work. I think they are fabulous. But it is all over the Boards that they dry out. Mine have dried out. Replacements too. Please let us know...assure us...as you are selling them in Duos I believe this weekend.

BEwell,kiki

Looking forward to the shows! Will the brand-new Prime Time Neutralizing Foundation Primer be sold separately? I'll bee needing a new bottle and I like the brightening primer in the big boy size!

Dear Leslie,

I have to say this TSV doesn't really excite me! I've learned that many products are another version of a product I already have, so I'll pass on this one. I always watch, though. I love to learn new techniques and little tricks. They are so much fun!

I have not been so lucky with many of the new skin care products, because I am seriously allergic to fragrance, and have returned products for this reason. Please keep this in mind and place it higher on your priority list in product development.

I look forward to a great weekend!

Hi Leslie It is Friday Night and I am really looking forward to seeing You and Lisa and all the Bare Mineral Products (Models too). Both of you together are such a breathe of fresh air and two Beauties to watch and I am looking forward to shopping and seeing what else is new with Bare Minerals and also like to learn some new tricks. I m loving the new 'solids' and the Bronzer too! thanks Diana

Have the TSV and absolutely love it! Can't wait to see what the AD has in store for us.

I got mine yesterday and absolutely love the new primer! I'm also in love with the blush. It's the perfect pinky-peach shade that gives your checks a natural flush.

On behalf of all of us matte fans, please, please, please let us choose between original and matte in the kits.

Living in Florida where it's like walking out into a vat of wet air in the summer, I can't wear the original in the Summer because I start sweating from the heat and the humidity and the bismuth oxychloride makes my skin start itching like crazy as soon as I step outside.

The matte foundation allows me to wear my favorite mineral makeup all year long.

I really like Bare Essentials, but I have recently moved to an area where you can get these same "only at qvc" products for half the price...you can get the ready wear blush for $20 and the ready to wear eyeshadow, 4 color compact for $30...so I do wish that you would not say things like "only at qvc" not exactly true. The store is in Annapolis and you can get all the name brand products. I do like Lisa, but they should not make you say things that are not true..the Ready Wear products have been in this store for about a month. So, just sayin.

I am soooo tired; but after seeing the preview of the TSV - can't fall asleep - I need to order. Have used Bare Escentuals for about a year now and LOVE IT. So great to go to work and have women ask "Is your makeup air brushed" "Your makeup is beautiful" It's all thanks to Bare Escentuals...I'm hooked and I'm in need so this TSV will get my stock up and going. Use the foundation, primer, mosturizers, cleansers, blush, shadows, bronzers, mascara, gloss....EVERYTHING they make is a 10!!!! Keep up the great work.

YES....Got mine on auto delivery also. :)

love the TSV...and you look fab today Leslie. Where would one find your beautiful ring on your right hand? is it from QVC?

Love this set. And the great price too! BE is the best foundation, no foundation, I've ever used, and ever will.

Let me know if you suddenly become interesting.

kiki21330800540.3476940 PostsRegistered 7/3/2010SJ

Leslie, THANKYOU {#emotions_dlg.thumbup}for letting us know about the Round the Clocks 'pop' AND for just now showing us this 'mushroom' technique you've spoken about on fb! I'd been so curious and couldn't figure it out. Can't wait to try this!

BEwell,kiki

There's no doubt that is a great TSV, especially for someone who's only been using BE for a short time, but I use the matte version of the foundation and the TSV has the original. Totally understandable - it's the bedrock of the brand.

I would have snapped this up if it didn't have any foundation in it but I know the expectation is that a BE TSV will have foundation and I know that it's impossible to do a TSV with original and matte. People would go crazy with the confusion.

Hopefully, there will be a TSV in the future without foundation or a matte option.

Sorry, I can't buy it. You are not offering my shade "Fairly Medium". If it were offered, I would have bought this kit. I love it otherwise :(

Tamim1330831987.6931 PostsRegistered 3/3/2012

Hi Leslie,

Nice TSV, but I'll tell you what I really want....BE eyliner in INK! It's only available in a kit? I previously purchased that kit. Very nice, but I still have the other products and don't want to buy it again just to get the eyeliner. Pleeeese make INK available separately. I LOOOOVE it. I think I remember that Lisa Robertson likes it too. Ink and Lucky...perfect!

I love Ink, too, probably my favorite. I just did a search on Ebay and got 11 results, so at least you can get one or more from there without having to buy the whole kit again.

Just call me "Junkie" (the Junkie of all Junkies!)

I just heard you won't be back until November. This was such sad news. Things really are going to change a LOT, aren't they...

So sad...{#emotions_dlg.crying}

Leslie, thank you for your support of women

I love B E and have two daughters who now use and love the products. On big request: A couple years ago a fabulous eye shadow came in one of the TSV's. It was called "HERBAL TEA" a beautiful gray with pink tint. I can't believe it isn't available as a single - it is so gorgeous!!!!

It's that time of year when I think of self-tanning again. Leslie, will you be featuring your Faux Tan TSV this spring as you have done every year? I look forward to this product so I hope this is coming soon!Smile

Squan561331687049.9532 PostsRegistered 3/13/2012

Dear Leslie,

Any chance you can discuss the problem with the Faux Tan applicator? It's shedding soooo bad when I apply it. I don't want to purchase another bottle of the tanner I only need the brush. Please can you do something? I'm very disappointed.

Kim Congle­ton1331689675.321 PostsRegistered 3/13/2012

Hi Leslie,

I have been using this new kit and I love the New Prime Time Neutralizing Foundation Primer. I have redness and uneven skin tone and this has helped more than anything I have ever used. I have one request, please give us a Bigger Bottle like super size and make it so that we can order just it on it's own from QVC.

Thanks and keep the good stuff coming.

Kim
