Truly Original: Our #30Originals Pixel Art Contest

By Genevieve Ernst | March 30, 2017

That picture up there should look vaguely familiar. First off, it’s pixel art, which may remind you of needlepoint, a mosaic, Super Mario or Cory Arcangel, depending where your interests lie. Second, it’s made up of none other than our bestselling, award-winning, 5 mineral Original Foundation.

In case you missed it, Original Foundation now comes in a gorgeous assortment of 30 mineral shades. It’s that expanded color range that inspired us to create original artwork of (hopefully) you, using 900 foundation pots to make our very own take on pixel art.

If you’re interested in getting your portrait made (and a gift card!), here’s how our contest works:
1. Take a close-up selfie of your face. Pro tip: It’ll look extra pretty if you’re wearing Original Foundation, but it’s not required.
2. Post your photo on Instagram and tag both #30Originals and #bareContest.

And that’s it! Post your photo by April 21, and you’ll be entered in the drawing to win an original pixel art portrait and a $50 bareMinerals gift card. For all the rules and fine print, go to bareminerals.com/barecontest. Good luck!
