I tried bare minerals years ago and returned the whole thing. Is sheer cover any better?

Ooh! Goodie!

I want to know the answer to this question too!

What was the problem with the bare minerals, hisway08?

I bought some mineral make-up from Avon that was supposed to be all that but I'm not really happy with the way it looks or feels and I'm wondering if it's just not great stuff (although it had a good write up in Marie Claire) or if it's just not great stuff for me OR if I'm just putting it on wrong.

Everyday Minerals is my fave mineral makeup. Way better color selection & several finish options. Not to sound like an infomercial, but is looks soooo natural

Does it come with a special brush? You know that help evenly distribute the light reflecting particles or whatever it is they say?

I wonder if I'm having trouble because I don't have the whiz bang brush?

You don't need a special brush. Just get a nice quality kabuki or flat top brush. Everyday Minerals sells good ones at cheap prices, and you can find nice ones at Sephora. You want one that is soft, dense, and that doesn't shed.

Thanks!

I know we don't have Sephora here, I'll do a little investigating and see if we have an Everyday Minerals outlet.

If not, I might have to organize a trip to both when I'm over there and stock up!

I work for QVC, and I must say, Bare Escentuals is probably our most popular show. Most people seem to love it, I know my girlfriend loves it

Be sure your face is dry before applying. Sometimes the minerals will stick if your moisturizer is still damp on your face. Using minerals can take a little trial and error in the beginning. Apply very little at a time and build on more in areas of need.

I've been using Mineral Secrets for about 4 years now. It works very nice for me.
