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:

It seems like the most obvious thing to do...brush a little bronzer on the places you want "bronzed", but I would've never thought of it on my own. :lol:

I've been slathering on my Loreal Sublime Bronze, but it doesn't seem to be covering up my halter marks. :lol: I don't even know why I'm bothering with it now, I'll just be back outside and in the pool this weekend. :lol:

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.

E-bay's a good place to pick up the brushes, too. I didn't get the full coverage kabuki in my kit so I picked one up from e-bay for a somewhat cheaper price.

I have no breakouts because of the routine I'm on and have been using for about a year now. :yay:

Crud I'm 40 and STILL have breakouts! I guess it's time to try something new...I have really dry sensitive skin! I hate foundation and powder but need to "try" and hide those outbreaks sometimes! I use Dove Sensitive Skin as a cleanser...recommendation by a Dermatologist BUT really don't like it much! I also use a Nutragena Moisturizer and like that alot! Hate breakouts at MY age.... :jameo:

I don't feel like going back to see where this was quoted from so sorry if I'm off mark, but I have breakouts as well and even though I love Bare Minerals, it doesn't provide enough coverage to me to hide my spots.

I need some help with this stuff. I ordered the Bare Minerals foundation. I received it yesterday and used it for the first time this morning.

I just looked in the mirror and my face is shining like oil in a frying pan. WTH? Is there something else I'm supposed to use with this stuff? I do not like a shiny face. :jameo:

:shrug: I don't have that problem because my skin is more on the dryer side.

Speedy, change your base. I had the same problem when I used the skin rever-upper stuff. I switched to an anti-shine moisturizer as my base and it helped a lot.

I have always used DDF Ultra Lite Moisturizing Dew. It is the BEST moisturizer for oily skin. Maybe it just doesn't 'agree' with BM makeup.

I would blame the moisturizer you are using before I'd blame the BM. Try something different.

If she has a moisturizer that she likes a lot I'd stick with that and try another make-up. I know you're die hard BM but it may not be for everyone. I wouldn't give up a moisturizer that had worked well for me. Speedy, you may want to try the Everyday Minerals; they have a formula specially for oily skin.

Hmm. Then what do I do with this BareMinerals that I spent $35.00 on? :jameo:
