Makeup for bedtime! Bare Essentials Pure Transformation Night Treatment

WOW! I never could have imagined applying a mineral powder to my skin before bedtime, especially since my mother always told me not to go to sleep with my makeup on. That idea hasn't stopped Bare Escentuals from creating an innovative skin treatment for nighttime. Pure Transformation Night Treatment is a translucent powder available in four different tones. It is applied at nighttime after your usual routine and will not come off on your pillowcase! The result?

Based on a consumer study women said:

• 83% saw fewer imperfections and less visible pores.
• 85% felt their skin texture improved.
• 89% felt their skin was firmer and more resilient.

* Based on an independent consumer study (Results from bareescentuals.com)

The innovative formula contains a 100% pure RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complez that has "skin-renewing benefits". The formula provides antioxidant protection and promotes faster cell turnover. It was clinically proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, while revealing smoother, brighter and younger looking skin... and the best part its while you sleep!

A new twist on typical nighttime skin care products that were only available as creams or serums... Bare Escentuals is the FIRST nighttime powder treatment for skin.  Bare Escentuals Pure Transformation Night Treatment is truly innovative and inspiring for beauty products to come, sometimes breaking the rules results in true innovation... makeup for bed is a great idea, truly unique and innovative!
