a while back i was trying out all these mineral make up brands with their samples. i finally settled on lauress’.
then i stopped using it after a few weeks because one morning, i took a very very close look at my face and saw that my laugh lines are more pronounced – i mean they’re there but i don’t want them to stick out so much! i’m only 25! lol
anyway, i stopped. i saw a post by ladytee on the make up talk board and her suggestion was to soak a make up sponge and squeeze the excess water out. sprinkle the loose foundation onto the sponge and apply it that way.
i tried that method this morning and i LOVE it! my goodness! the powder totally blended in and gave me a soft airbrushed look without accentuating my lines! hahahaha and it look very natural. applying mmu (mineral make up) wet gives a lighter coverage and that is perfect. i don’t need heavy coverage.
i’m back to using lauress. i need to use it since i spent money on the full size. needless to say, it’s going to take me years to finish this powder since a little goes a long way and the container is topped full! now it’s got a place in my overstuffed handbag. ^^
what happened to bare escentuals?

i stopped using be a long time ago. i gave them all (except shadows) to my sister. it was making me itch really bad after a few days of having them on constantly.
plus they contain some ingredients i’ll rather avoid if i can:
bismuth – makes me itch
parabens
is that what you’re using?
