Anyone have Bare Minerals Nude Beach?

Post by feyith » Wed May 26, 2010 2:15 pm

What's the closest SN color to it? I received a sample in a swap and love it! It's just slightly lighter than my natural eyelid color and has the same complex sparkles as Fairy Dust but I can't wear Fairy Dust because it looks like eye gunk on me. Any ideas? Maybe Whisper?

hmmm, Boom is nothing like Nude Beach. I have and also LOVE nude Beach, but so far I haven't found an SN dupe.
the othe two Sam mentioned I haven't tried so I have no idea. The champagne ones sounds the most similar though, based on the description.

I don't know if this helps but Sassy has a clone of it and they describe it as "sandy beige with silver sparkle".

I have Boom & Bare and from the description on Sassy, I don't think they're exactly it.

But I'd be very interested in a clone ;)

Here's a swatch of Bare & Boom together.

Hope I don't get in trouble for promoting another company but I just couldn't resist the 75 cent eyeshadow jar samples. I bought like a dozen of them. :oops:

Sugar Daddy and Perplexed are gorgeous, sparklier, more pigmented versions of Nude Beach. So pretty! :D

Have you tried Quartzite? I got mine yesterday (I was so confused when I saw the color because I thought I had asked for Burnished so that's the color I expected, somehow I mixed them up in my head) and I'd describe it as a sandy beige with silver shimmer. A gorgeous neutral, not sure how it would compare to Nude Beach though.

Ya, that package should be there soon! I know it has to go clear across the US, but seriously, it needs to hurry up! :lol:

I hunted down a swatch online of Nude Beach and I'm thinking maybe Bare or Purr? One reviewer compared it to Stila Kitten and Purr is Karen's clone of that, though based on swatches alone it may be slightly pinker than Nude Beach. I don't know though, since I don't have any of them.

I'm guessing Quartzite may be a bit darker. Quartzite is a beautiful, just a little darker than my lid color. I absolutely love it. So maybe it'll be the same on you??
