Oh, I'm so glad to know the prices are the same at Ulta. I assume you can use the $3.50 off coupon that comes in the Sunday paper. Awesome! Thanks, Sherry Lynn, for the tip!

I also forgot to mention the brushes. They are awesome! You dip in the powder and tap it off just like they show on TV so you use very little product when applying. My favorite is the short stubby brush with an Asian sounding name (?).

By the way, did I mention that I love 'em?

Yep! You can use the coupons, AND it goes towards you Ulta points! hehe

The prices are also the same at Sephora, but I don't care to go to the mall...

That's it! I bought all the brushes, but went back and got another Kabuki brush. One for powder, one for blush.

The other thing that I like is the compact and the travel brush that collapses.

Did I mention that I love 'em? hehehee

I ABSOLUTELY ADORE THIS MAKEUP!!! I've used it for about 5-6 years, for as long as it has been on QVC. It is just the best stuff!!! I buy it at Ulta now though. I also adore their Cush deep sea foaming seaweed cleanser and the Escentual moisturizing body shampoo and the Escentual body polish. If you use the body polish like you would soap or shaving cream to shave your legs, you'll never use anything else, ever again. The escentual fragrance is just the absolute best in the world (IMHO). I also love the escentual perfume.

Guys, this is the best makeup in the world!!! I would NEVER EVER consider wearing anything else now that I've experienced Bare Minerals. And if you are thinking that a powder foundation cannot possibly cover all your imperfections, or stay on all day, then you'd be wrong. This stuff will cover almost anything!

I guess I sound like the informercial - but I truly ADORE this stuff! My 84 year old mom uses it too!!!

You can actually get VERY heavy coverage - as heavy as you want - by applying it with a makeup sponge, rather than a brush. I go to the gym some mornings with women that do not use makeup so I am hurrying to get mine on (I'm vain, hafta to have it!

after my shower. Anyway, I use a makeup sponge because it is quicker - you can get it on with one/two swipes. But....I have to be very careful to not get too much.

TX girl - I think it was you who asked about the Cush seafoam cleanser and the Escentual body soap and body polish and perfume - yes, they are from the id line which is all the same (they care makeup and body products) - The Ulta stores usually carry the Escentual body soap/polish but they have stopped carrying the Cush line so I have to order it from QVC or online.

From my perspective, all the products I have tried from this line (id) are absolutely fabulous. I don't think I have ever found a makeup/body product line where I loved everything that I tried.

I was looking at one of your pictures, V, and thinking how you always look so nice! I decided then and there to make more of an effort. Next thing you know I'm at the Ulta buying the id eyeliner kit! Now you can actually see my eyes!

Now I want those $500 eyelash extensions that I hear are all the rage!!

I wish!

The "shades" of the face makeup are not normal colors. How do you know which one to pick?

I have a fairly light skin tone & I use the medium foundation color. I think the medium would work for light to medium skin tones. Hope this helps!

I have used it for about 3 years now will use nothing else. It is a WONDERFUL product covers up alot and lasts a long time!!!! And best of all it is all natural.
I have a girlfriend who had awful acne and it took a little but but her face has cleared up and she will use nothing else. She spent alot of money on meds and a dermatologist and this seemed to work well for her. And you can leave it on overnight and will not harm your face like all the other cover ups.
I know the big malls will have it in their makeup and perfume stores.
I do have a phone no somewhere to call in an order.
I spent 60 dollars this summer for refills and I have not even used half of it and I put it on every morning.
