Well... One thing I will tell you is..... The best thing about wearing Bare Minerals is that you won't look like your wearing foundation or makeup period! The make up that will be noticeable will be the eye shadows if you pick "colors" otherwise you can go with natural contouring colors that will bring out the natural beauty of your face and eyes! You'd be amazed at what you can do with some simple shading! And the soft focus trio is AMAZING for this! It will also redefine your cheeks and jaw line! Their blush minerals without shimmer in them look so natural you'll look like a blushing bride! Like your the happiest person in the room! If you use a rose or pink shade like glee or some of the lighter pinks, or if you use warmth, a tiny bit! you will look sun kissed! like you spent the weekend in the garden or sitting by the pool, but did not fry like most of us do! lol And the liner shadows!!! I used to wear them wet, and still do sometimes for the rare hussy night out once a year! lol but applied dry at the base of your lash line.... gives you that "eyes wide open look" that we all want! And top that with a quick sweep of their Big Tease mascara!!! A BIG FAVE!!! Its the best Mascara I have used in a LONG time! and the brush is Awesome!!!
I've found that with the liner shadow, there is no need to torture myself with the eye lash curler, cause the added volume it gives me at my lash base is more than enough!!! So I totally skip it now and my eyes still look amazing and I am saving my eyes from major premature wrinkling! Something that at 31 I am seriously getting worried about now! (I know.... 31 and worried about wrinkles... Hey! I want cheese to go with my whine!!!! I am all about prevention!!! Once they set in, there is no getting rid of them!!! And I am not inviting them in any earlier than I have to!!! lol)
And if you are wondering in the back of your mind if you can really sleep in them???? YES!!!
I have been breaking out like mad cause I just spent 5 days in the hospital after my car accident and was not following my normal face care and was on some serious pain meds for the abdominal bruising and the aches and pains... it sucked. Your face is the first place to show stress!!! So I was looking like BLAH! for thanksgiving!!!
I totally covered EVERYTHING! And was totally busted when I got home! I flopped into bed, so we got up late and had to run out the door to go pick my step son and I was like.... woah... no time to shower! But my face looked awesome! lol I just touched up under my eyes cause I had a bit of mascara transfer, but a tissue took care of that... and I was out the door! NO oil! NO redness! NO irritation! Nothing! I looked totally amazing! I was like one of those Daytime drama actresses who rolls out of bed looking perfect! lol
Ok.... I have got to stop.... my minerals rock! End of story! lol
