@heyitsfunny so did it work for you?
@AZsBESTEST Yes it is working for me! I am really happy with BM Matte and have been using it for 2 months now. My skin has improved a lot…still oily but have had almost no breakouts which is GREAT!! I really think the BM is so much better for my skin instead of the MK liquid foundation. It also matches my skin better. Looks very natural and provides me with perfect coverage! I am sticking with BM Matte!
@laystiIIIikethedead I cant speak for everyone of course but for me so far my first jar of BM Matte has lasted over 2 months and there is still plenty in there left to use. I am happy with it.
Great info!!!! Did you say you were the beauty assistant for Lucky? Lucky Brand Jeans or a different Lucky?
Another thing people have to remember is only to use a very small amount at a time, get more if you need more but, a little really goes a long way. Like you said, the more you buff, the better it looks!!
i’m thinking of buying bare minerals matte, but should i buy the starter kit or just the foundation? i would really like to get the same kabuki brush you used in this video and maybe the bisque concealer.. should i just buy these things separately??
what about blemishes? i just bought the bareminerals matte foundation and it works great, but it’s not enough to cover my acne scars. what concealer could i use with BM without making it cakey?
@cocoPABL0 You use the bare minerals foundation as concealer, with the BM concealer brush! It really, really works and never looks “cakey”. I <3 BM.
the origonal bareminerals is just foundation with spf15 and mattte spf15 foundation aborbs oil and covers up shine with the same coverage.
Thanks so much for doing this video. I have mild rosacea, along with the occasional acne flare-up and sometimes a few pimples. My skin is also quite oily with large cheek pores and a few scars in that area to boot. Many other reviewers of this product don’t seem to have problem prone skin, or at least they don’t admit it if they do, so it’s really hard to know how the product is going to look & cover. Your review was refreshing, more believable and much easier to relate to! I’m sold!
what makes the product matte compared to the original formula?
very nice! ur skin was oily and shiny like mine and it just became amazing
hey nice videoo very straight forward
where can i buy that brush / how much is it
and it i heard it clear up acne cause it doesnt clog your pore
we have the same name (:
thank you for the tips!!
will the matte cover my freckles?
DUDE I TOTES RECOGNIZE YOU FROM THE COMMERCIAL! YOU’RE THE MAGAZINE CHICK! hahahahahahahahahah that’s so weird…thank you! love your videos!
I just come across your channel and I have subscribed Yay!!! I bought sheer cover the only reason was because I couldn’t get my head around how to use bare minerals I had the foundation and the foundation Brush you have got, so I watch your videos and wow I can not get over how gorgeous my face look it just looks like I have a glow I have order the matte thanks a million , I Have cancel my order with sheer cover I am super happy x
I love Bare Minerals! I’ve only ever used the Matte version but I love it… the jar is lasting me forever!!!! Just a question, how much product do you use for your whole face? I don’t tap everything out that I’m going to use for one application, I just do a little bit at a time and gradually build it up… do you do it like that or do you just only fill the brush up once?
p.s: I also use the shade Fairly Light but I sometimes think that it’s a little bit yellow for me but apart from that it seems to be the correct color… so, which shade do you think would show up less yellow-ish on me?
You should also try using some crest whitening strips for those teeth, they are pretty yellow hun! Just a suggestion…
@jmoonsuede she doesnt need to whiten her teeth. any whiter than they are naturally would look fake. everyone is so obsessed with having sheet as white as copy paper. her teeth are actually the lightest natural teeth shade.
@razzberrry Thats your opinion, and yes teeth are not bleach white but they are also not the color yellow lol have you ever heard of yellow bones? nope! She has stained teeth which is why they are a yellow color something that happends over time, which is why I suggested the whitening strips. Got it?
@jmoonsuede okay, if thats what you think
i really love the matte foundation!
