Manufactured:USA

bareMinerals is a pioneering brand in the mineral makeup industry, originally launched by Leslie Blodgett in San Francisco during the mid-1990s. The brand gained immense popularity for its focus on skin-enhancing minerals and lack of harsh chemicals, becoming a household name through television sales and dedicated boutiques. The Original Pressed Powder Foundation is designed as a portable, solid version of their cult-classic loose mineral foundation.

Over the years, the brand has transitioned through various owners. It was acquired by the Japanese beauty giant Shiseido in 2010. However, in 2021, Shiseido sold its makeup brands, including bareMinerals, to Advent International. Advent International subsequently formed a new company called Orveon to manage these clean beauty brands. The product is primarily manufactured in the United States, maintaining its Californian heritage while operating under a global corporate structure headquartered in the United Kingdom.
