bareMinerals Matte Loose Mineral Foundation — 06 Neutral Ivory, Buildable Matte Coverage & Oil Control

bareMinerals Original Matte Loose Mineral Foundation SPF 15 in 06 Neutral Ivory is a lightweight, talc-free mineral powder that controls shine, builds sheer-to-full matte coverage, and supports clearer-looking skin over time.

This mineral foundation combines lightweight pigments and a proprietary RareMinerals® ActiveSoil Complex to absorb oil, minimize the appearance of pores, and help skin look smoother without feeling heavy or drying. Formulated for sensitive skin, the powder is vegan, cruelty-free, non-comedogenic, and dermatologist-tested. It also includes mineral-based SPF 15 for everyday broad-spectrum protection from UVA and UVB rays while giving a natural matte finish.

How does this foundation control shine without making skin feel dry?

The formula uses naturally mattifying minerals that absorb excess oil and reduce surface shine while retaining a breathable, lightweight feel. Rather than heavy silicones or talc, the powder relies on a talc-free mineral base and a balancing complex to maintain comfort over long wear.

• Oil-absorbing mineral pigments for a matte surface
• Talc-free, non-greasy powder texture
• Lightweight coverage that layers without caking
• Designed to be comfortable on sensitive skin

What skincare benefits can I expect with regular use?

The RareMinerals® ActiveSoil Complex in the formula is designed to help minimize the look of pores and promote healthier-looking skin over time. Clinical testing supports visible improvement in skin texture with continued wear, while the non-comedogenic formulation avoids clogging pores or worsening breakouts.

• Promotes fresher, smoother-looking skin over time
• Minimizes appearance of pores without harsh abrasives
• Won’t settle into fine lines or cause breakouts
• Contains antioxidant-rich soil-derived minerals to protect skin from environmental stressors
