I finally found the Jane Be Pure Mineral Foundation in Walgreens yesterday - it was in a separate display for free after rebate stuff, and not in their Jane display.

I was so disappointed when I got there and didn’t see any liquid foundation at all, but I went about the task of choosing the right formula, and color, which was kind of hard since they didn’t have the sale price marked on the Jane display, and they didn’t say which ones are free after rebate, so I didn’t know which ones I could choose from :-).

I finally decided on the Be Pure Sheer Mineral Powder in Light, which does not look anywhere near as yellow as it does on Jane’s web site.

Of course after finding the foundation I had to decide on a color all over again - I’m pale enough that some foundations don’t have a color that is light enough for me, and if I find a foundation that works, I’m ususally the lightest shade in that foundation.

Of course right now I have a hint of summer sun, so I wavered between the fair and ivory shades because there was no tester.

After carrying the ivory foundation around for a while, I finally decided I better get the fair instead.

I’m glad I did - the fair blends perfectly into my skin - I don’t have any pictures of it for you, because after I put it on my hand I couldn’t find it anymore :-).

I felt silly putting a swatch up that looks just like the back of my hand, so I didn’t.

Forgive me :-).

I always apply liquid foundations with a nonlatex sponge, but I did test the Jane Be Pure Mineral foundation with my fingers.

The foundation applied smoothly, and disappears into my skin.

It provides a hint of coverage, but I don’t think it’s going to be able to cover up the circles under my eyes or the tiny broken capillaries on my nose - of course that’s what concealor is for.

Over all I’m happy with the foundation and at $4.99 or free after rebate I think it’s a great deal for someone who is looking for a liquid foundation with light coverage.

Stay tuned for an update after I’ve used this for a couple of weeks.

If you’ve tried this I’d love to know what you think!
