Surprising Find May 18, 2006 Rebecca Johnson (Washington State) 19 out of 22 found this review helpful
The Bare Escentuals makeup products are impressive and are enhanced by the use of the Bare Vitamins skin Rev-er Upper lotion. Salicylic Acid and Glycolic Acid clear up your complexion and help to exfoliate dead skin which then leaves the perfect canvas for the powdery mineral foundations. Calming Oat Kernel extract sooths the skin and leaves you with an even complexion. It seems they have all the right ingredients in this formula including Vitamin A and E. Use this alternately with Derma E Peptides Plus mixed with a little JASON Ester-C Hyper -C Serum (use at night) and you may notice your skin becoming more vibrant, fresh and smooth in a few months. This lotion is also included in the starter kits. ~The Rebecca Review
Ok for the Price June 27, 2006 QuidProQuo (Chicago, IL) 15 out of 16 found this review helpful
I bought this when I got my bare escentuals starter kit. You definitely need this type of product to prep your skin for the makeup, otherwise it doesn't go on evenly. This product is designed for pairing with the makeup and it does what its supposed to do. However, it smelled like glue to me and I could feel the layer of it on my skin which made me feel like it was caked on. This of course, is comparing it to the Estee Lauder Idealist skin refinisher which makes your skin feel like velvet and makes your makeup go on flawlessly. Of course, this isn't an Estee Lauder commerical, so I think it works ok for the price and with the makeup. I wouldn't reccomend using it if you're not using the makeup with it.
ouch!!!! November 22, 2006 Andreah (mesa, az United States) 13 out of 18 found this review helpful
i hate this stuff. i work at sephora and i got the kit.... did you know that this product has salicylic acid and glycolic acid in it????? that's a little harsh for a "rever upper" to me it should have a warning on it saying "these ingredients are also in key ingredients to treat acne and for chemical peels" (or at least say this is an exfoliator) to me it hurt and burned and unfortunately my face became irritated because of it. i already have a certain routine with an exfoliator and moisturizer. if you really want your make up to look its best and stick with your normal cleansing routine just try using a makeup base/primer there are so many out there i like clean slate from tarte or lorac has an oil free makeup primer that is amazing. def wont use this product again.
a must before foundation December 19, 2006 S. Andres (new york, ny) 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
I didn't understand how important this little product was before I lost it and noticed an immediate difference in how my makeup looked. I went on vacation and skin rev-er upper was accidentally left behind, much to my dismay. I continued using the foundation without it and even thought I still used my usual moisturizer, my makeup just didn't look as smooth and flawless! Plus, I noticed that my skin without makeup wasn't as smooth or blemish free without the glycolic and salicylic acids. So the moral of the story is: skin rev-er upper really prepares your face for smooth and radiant application of bare minerals foundation. Definitely get it in the starter kit, as it is quite expensive by itself!
This product is NOT A PRIMER July 9, 2007 AdventurerWA (Seattle, WA USA) 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
After reading all of these negative reviews regarding the Rev-er Upper, I noticed that many people were expecting this product to be a primer. However, Bare Escentuals sells Prime Time as a primer. If you look at the ingredients listed on the Rev-er Upper, salicylic acid is the 5th product listed...which is also the same ingredient in many acne medicines. This product is designed to exfoliate your skin by drying it out. I have used the Rev-er Upper only twice and my skin started to peel (like it's supposed to). Since I've never had bad acne, I don't really use it unless I am having a breakout and want my skin to dry out. But I can see this being a good product for those with more acne issues. As for the Prime Time, I've never used it...I use Smashbox Photo Finisher and swear by it.
