Bare Minerals Bare Escentuals Mineral Makeup

At first, i was a little hesitant to get on the mineral makeup bandwagon, but, Bare Minerals has converted me to a believer.
Its really easy to apply, but takes a little practise in the blending to get it perfect.
I think it would be best applied with the bare minerals blending brush, however, a brush didnt come with the foundation, but were available to purchase separately. I found i had to try an assortment of the brush i already had at home before i found the right brush to get a really good application. I used a clinique makeup powder stubby brush made of natural hair
I purchased my foundation from AMAZON for approz $15, and prices vary.
Myer has them, but they cost $79, so NO THANK YOU!

One of the things i like about the product is you can use it as a concealer with a concealer brush, as well as it being your foundation.
They suggest using a mineral veil on top, and this might be something that would help stop the makeup slightly separating and going into lines around my mouth after a few hours.

Collagen Crystal Eyelid patch review



These came as a freebie, when i purchased Bare Minerals foundation a few weeks ago from Amazon.
You apply them directly under the eye, and leave for about 30minutes.
They contain a number of moisturizing and soothing ingredients such as allantoin, vitamin E, grape seed oil, aloe extract, camomile, cucumber extract, rose and lavender essential oils. The main idea of t is to have the ingredients absorb really quickly into the skin thru the eye patch contact.
The de-wrinkling ingredients are glycerin, and soy protein.
If you had really sensitive eyes, you might find the eye patch is a bit too much.
After about 10 minutes, my eyes started to feel a little "warm" but it didnt irritate my eyes.
