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.
