Funny, I think the same thing about you and the use of "man" in your username.

I knew I could count on you, I just laughed out loud...

Looked down at your again, dintcha?

nah, I was thinking about when you got all your hair cut off, and you looked like the character that Joe Pesci played in JFK... :snort:

Wow!

Post 369 for any newbies that want to learn about BM's.

My testimonial:

I'm not all impressed with it. I did the :swirl: :buff: over and over and over, and used all the right items, but I don't feel like it's enough coverage. My foundation does a much better job. My face is caked with powder. I don't feel it did its job. Then again, maybe I just have a really, really bad complexion.

Chasey, it has great staying power. You put it on, and can touch your face or whatever, and it doesn't come off. I put it on around noon yesterday (lazy day) and it stayed all day. I definitely wouldn't consider it "full coverage", so you may not be happy with the coverage results compared to a powder. I have fair skin, so I tend to have dark circles under my eyes, and it did a great job of covering that up. I have freckles too though, and they still showed through the bare minerals (not complaining about that, I'm pretty fond of them), so I don't think it'd be that great for covering blemishes.

Ya know I take this with a grain of salt, considering you're a dude hanging out in a make-up thread. :gheyazz:

It works really well for me :shrug: Now, granted, I don't have Martian terrain on my face, but neither does Chasey (unless she's changed a lot since I saw her last).

I think what's happening is just what Crab said - Chasey is trying to actually change her complexion and skin tone, so she's not liking the more natural look you get with Bare Minerals. And that makes sense because if you're used to a more dramatic look, BM isn't going to make you happy.

Thanks for sharing that tidbit; I bruise easily.

Me too. Lately it's awful, I think it's the pregnancy anemia setting in. Fell down the stairs last week (yes, yes, I got all checked out and had x-rays, etc...) and I look like hell. My back, left leg, and left arm are horrific - like I'm a battered woman or some crap.

Don't mind me, I've just been itching to use that smilie.

Be careful You don't want to end up bed ridden. They will have to tie an anchor to you if that were to happen.

I forgot to report that I'd gotten my "Meet the browns" eye shadow kit, and love it! When you apply it as the directions suggest, it looks awesome and wears much better than my former eyeshadow did.

I need to find a bigger basket now for DQ to have all my old make-up to play with.

Chasey_Lane, I think you should get the Bisque. I got mine Friday and it kicks ass! I cover my imperfections and my eyelids with the little concealer brush and then use my Bukaki brush to dust it all over my face. Then I started the regular routine. If you want more coverage, I feel it pulls the whole look together.


P.S. If you've already discussed the Bisque, don't read this.
