bareMinerals has launched a matte variant of its cult mineral foundation which is claimed to absorb excess oil and eliminate shine without drying skin. New Matte SPF15 Foundation contains a RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex, a proprietary blend said to help minimise the appearance of pores and promote cell turnover to improve skin clarity and smoothness.

In tests 89% of women agreed the product reduced oily shine throughout the day, while 86% experienced improved skin clarity with continued use, and 87% saw a lessening in pore size.

The powder is housed in a pot featuring the brand’s new Click, Lock, Go sifter, which helps prevent spills and is available in 15 shades.
