Did anyone receive a sample of 'Dr. Feelgood Face Balm?' If so, what exactly is this stuff supposed to do? How/where do I apply it, specifically?

I know that.Nickel said:
I'm just wondering what it's suppose to do, and where exactly on your face? All over, just some places, etc.? I rubbed it between my fingers, and couldn't understand why I would want it on my face. :shrug:

I have that sample but I haven't used it yet... have you looked it up on the Sephora website yet? That's what I usually do before I try a sample... just to be sure I understand what I'm supposed to do with it and what it is supposed to do for me.Chasey_Lane said:Did anyone receive a sample of 'Dr. Feelgood Face Balm?'

As for the age of my skin. It's 38 years old.... and until I started using Bare Minerals... it's been hating life for most of those 38 years. I'm thinking by the time my skin is 40 it should be much better off than it was before.

If it's a "balm" I'm guessing it's fairly thick and probably on the greasy side? I'd assume you'd use it like the balms you use on a baby. Chapped checks, extra dry or irritated skin.
I bet DD wouldn't mind if you slathered up your butt with it.

Not at all. It's very light and matte-like.pixiegirl said:

Cool, thanks! I'll try using it all over my face one day and see how it looks/feels in the evening.Nickel said:

I have the "Gorgeous Georgia" set...it has 2 eyeshadows, a peachy blush, and a little lip palette (don't know if they sell it as a set anymore). I like "You Rebel" (tinted moisturizer spf 15) for spring/summer when I don't wear much makeup. "Ooh La La Lift" if my eyes are puffy from lack of sleep or something. I'd like to try a lot more of their stuff, but it's fairly pricey. One thing I wasn't impressed with is their face wash. I tried Wooosh when my face broke out, and it didn't do much.Chasey_Lane said:

I'd like to try the tinted moisturizer. I'll need a bit of a tan first, though.Nickel said:

I bought some warm radiance and used it this morning. Not a bad color. A little like warmth (only softer) with a hint of shimmer, like true. I don't like it as blush, but it's cute as a shadow!

I've been using Neutrogena Healthy Defense face powder for years, and always had good results. A while ago, I tried Physicians Formula Mineral Wear (which I love even more). I recently tried the Neutrogena Mineral Sheers Mineral Powder Foundation (Neutral to Medium #40). The color matched, but the Physicians Formula is so much better, because I can use my own brush, which is way better than the built in brush of the Neutrogena brand. It's not bad, and would be good to keep in your purse if you carry make-up (I don't) for touch ups.
The PF is just so much better and lasts all day, I haven't needed to touch it up at all. The price on both is definitely right by me so...give 'em a try.
Just so ya know....CVS (I know the one on GMR) has some of the PF products on sale for 50% off.
I just bought some of the Mineral Wear so I can see how it stacks up aganst BM. The price was definitely right, so I hope the product is as good. I'm with Kwillia - I've noticed a definite improvement in my skin since going to BM, so I hesitate to change. But I'm a beauty product guinea pigjwwb2000 said:
