The possible reason your having break outs from Bare Minerals is because it contains bismuth oxychloride............You might have better luck with Everyday Minerals if you like the look of mineral makeup......This is from a site on mineral make up, Everyday Minerals does not contain bismuth.
For women with sensitive skin, this is important to note. Bismuth Oxychloride is a by-product of lead mining and can cause skin irritation in some women. Many women who think they can't wear mineral make-up because of itching and breakouts are reacting to bismuth oxychloride. Bismuth Oxychloride is also what gives Bare Minerals foundations their characteristic sheen. The finishing powders of both brands contain zea mays, which can cause itching. Everyday Minerals offers zea mays-free balancing powder and 100% silk powder as alternatives to those who are sensitive to zea mays.
