Bare Escentuals is offering a free sample of their Matte mineral foundation plus a mini Buki brush for free. You do have to pay the $1 or so shipping charge. Even though the website says limit one per customer, you can actually get up to three free samples per order as long as you choose three different shades. The shipping charge for all three samples (as long as it is in the same order) is $1 or so. Have your credit/debit card on hand to pay the shipping charge.
I have never tried mineral make up but I am excited to try it now. Particularly since I have a chance to make sure I get the right color for my skin tone out of three choices.

Ordered mine today as well. I have been wanting to try, but didn’t want to pay for it through QVC and not like it.
Thanks!!!

wow! Thanks ordered mine. What a great find. I haven’t used anything else since first using Bare Mnerals 3 yrs ago. Best make up ever. I have Rosacea and couldn’t find anything to cover redness and this stuff really works.

Thank you! I could get two samples, wouldn’t let me have three for some reason, but this is great – I’d love to try this and know that the shade is right.

I was thrilled to see this. I too have been wanting to try Mineral makeup fro quite some time.
I was able to get all six, I am hispanic, so I def. did not need the light, very light colors, but I did go ahead and get 4 different shades for a grand total of $1.05. I was excited bc I tan so easily that my color changes almost on a daily basis.
thanks for this

Sounds great! I put the items in my bag but it says shipping is $3.95. How did you get it down to $1? Thank you!

There is a special on the check out. Keep going after you enter your card info. It reduces like 2.95 for a special “sample shipping discount”.. I was worried about it too.

Thanks Karla! I just got mine and only paid $1.04. lol I was able to get 3 samples. I’m giving one to my daughter, one for me and I guess a friend will get the darker colored one.

I actually got four samples. Was anyone else able to get four? I only paid $1.07 for them- sweet! I just kept adding, and it kept on putting them on! I thought I was going to have to pay $5 with shipping, but it took the shipping off at the end and I only had to pay $1.07. I have never tried it before, so I am anxious to see if it works well! Thanks!

You can also go to any Ulta store or maybe others and get one free at the checkout counters.
