Someone should send this thread to the BM company.

They can put it on a website or something. Hell I want to buy some after reading this, but I dont wear make-up alot.

I went the baby shampoo route and still don't find that the brushes accept/disburse the make-up like they do when they're new after washing them. :ohwell:

Do you also use conditioner on 'em or something? :shrug:

Try a product used specifically for washing makeup brushes. :shrug: That's what I use on all my brushes (even non-BE ones), and they're all fine.

I have to resurrect this thread to share some exciting news.

As it is summer, and I've been spending a good amount of time at the beach lately, I have acquired a bit of a tan. My bathing suit has a halter style top, resulting in (you got it) halter style tan lines. I never gave this a second thought, as I don't really have anywhere to go where such tan lines would be inappropriate. The one exception is a wedding I'm attending this weekend, however my dress is also halter style, so no worries, right?

I'm awakened this morning by a frantic bride, whose maid of honor (who happens to be my exact height and size) is in the hospital after an emergency appendectomy. So, I agree to fill in, and as an afterthought, realize I have some clearly ghetto (in terms of being a maid of honor) tan lines :lol:. So Wenchy, who is, quite possibly, a genius, suggests Bare Minerals. I brushed some warmth on the pale parts of my skin and Voila!!!! No more tan lines!!!!

I realize that this testimonial is a little drawn out, but I am very excited, and wish to share this newfound information. :lmao:

Thank GAWD you posted this! I have a halter-style bikini top and I've got tan lines. I've been figuring out a way to tan the sun missed spots before the wedding. I've got plenty of warmth, so watch out! :getdown: :lol:

You can order anywhere you like. We just happen to like Sephora.com because you get free samples. :smile:

You are best off ordering a starter kit because it comes with all the brushes you will need as well as two shades of foundation which will help you determine which shade works best for you. If you go the QVC route, you will get automatic shipments of the foundation which will be billed to your credit card each time. If you order your foundation from Sephora.com, you can control how often you purchase.

Sure you can, just make sure you get the foundation in your color & the mineral veil, you can mix and match anything else with those 2 to create a look that's right for you. I'm not sure if any of the other sets include the 3 brushes you get with the starter set but you could order them separately or if you wanted you could use your own makeup brushes if you had to.
