@crzychk77 Not sure how professionals suggest to do it, but I take my brushes and let a gentle, slow stream of luke warm water run from my faucet. Wetting my brushes lightly, I use a really soft face wash (I personally like to use Dermalogica - it makes my brushes really fluffy - but you can use either an actual brush-washing formula or a VERY gentle face wash), and I rub the soap into the brush, was it off, and repeat. I dry it lightly with a face towel and set to dry on its own over night. :)
Dermalogica is actually a little pricey, and it can't be found in regular pharmacies, but usually beauty parlors have it. However, if you're looking for a pretty gentle face wash - to use not just on your brushes, but for your face as well! - I highly recommend it. It doesn't dry out your face, and it does a decent job cleaning. :) Price range in the forties - but I think it's worth it. I use "Clearing Skin Wash", but you might want something different. :)
BareMinerals gives me a lot better coverage than MAC or any other foundation. MAC made me break out really bad, and so did all the others. But I can sleep, sweat, or do anything without my skin getting really bad with this makeup. And it also doesn't rub off easily like most makeups. I love this stuff. :D
I'm glad that someone else out there puts on concealer after foundation. It seems like when they put the concealer on first, then buff in the foundation, the buffing takes some of the coverage away from the concealing.
Nice tutorial. You have gorgeous skin! You actually don't really need foundation or a concealer. Wish I could say the same..lol. Do you use any type of moisurizer on your skin before you apply the BM?
i have a lot of dark spots and blemishes or w.e and this is the only makeup that completely covers them i look flawless when i put it on and ive also used Smashbox liquid foundation which is good but doesnt cover blemishes like Bare minerals
Hey I love this video I was debating on buying bare minerals or other brand, but after watch this video, I'm soo buying ! thank you, you are really cool ! by the way beautiful skin.
don't buy any other brand... bare escentuals/minerals is the best make u around! at first i bought it but in the wrong color and i hated it, but the i went to the bare escentuals store and i got matched to the right color and i got addicted to it! i am sure u will love it! good luck!!!!
if you have large pores its not the best makeup. So i gotta keep em' clean. I need to be on a daily/nightly skin care routine in order for the makeup to look amazing. It covers pinples better then a blackhead.
Thanks for the great video. I just bought bare mineral starter kit yesterday but the DVD wouldn't play for me so I looked here. You are a very pretty girl and I really appreciate the help.
I already use a maybelline powder which has natural ingrediants in it and its great. But if bare minerals is going to be even better then i may as well get it. I love the natural make-up!
@mekissingyou both of them i would recommend [i use both when i do my makeup] but the bare minerals seem to be more even when i put it on. i've never used maybelline, but a couple of my friends have and then switched to B.M. its your choice but I would recommend it.

Im with you pink, now correct me if im wrong but the whole point to mineral make up is that it looks natural and you dont have to cake it on... now im sorry and no disrespect meant but you used more in that video than i do in a week and i use mine every day. All i can say is if you feel you need to use that much of it to get the coverage you wish and your not going to use it how it is designed then maybe you should think about using a different product.
well the reason it get messy when you tap it is because your using WAY TO MUCH!!! and your not spreading it around enough either thats the waste of makeup your using ten pounds of it in one spot.
i got the bare minerals mineral veil brush and it has the mineral veil finishing powder built in so all you have to do is shake it and its on the brush so cool!
Maybe it's just your camera, or maybe I'm crazy...But I only see a very subtle difference between you with makeup and you without. =/ When you put it only on one side, the side you put it on looked really pale and light. The side without the makeup looked awake and natural.
i have a ton of bare minerals products and if you have an ulta near you, they carry bare minerals there. you can probably get them online but i prefer getting them @ ulta
i think the mineral veil is supposed to be a setting powder, have you noticed a difference in how long your makeup lasts if you use the mineral veil or not?
also my set came with a kabuki, not buffer brush, do you know any good dupes for the 'buffer brush'?
btw you can use tape over some of the holes to control how much product comes out at a time.
in my kit there is four different little foundations or whatever they're called. i don't know in what order i am supposed to apply them on my face. can someone please tell me like "you apply this one first, this one second, etc..." because im really lost in this bare minerals process even though i watched the dvd.
i dont think you need all of those colors, lol they are there so you can find the best match. then you only need to use your match and the mineral veil. you can use the warmth for bronzer. i only use one color from my set, no warmth (too dark) & no mineral veil, but thats me. i put a sticker on the one that matches my skintone and store the others somewhere else.
@NatiMartuClari You first apply the foundation which has a name on the bottom it could be light, medium beige, medium, whatever color you may be.You apply that with the tallest fullest brush, or the shorter brush depending on how much coverage you want. After you've reached your desired look, you can also use the concealer brush which is the shorter, more tightly packed brush. Then, you will use the mineral veil, again stated on the bottom. You can use it with the same brush if you would like.
she's totally using it wrong. she didnt even prime her face! you have to TAP THE EXCESS, or you will have fallout just everywhere. and the mineral veil is supposed to be used VERY little, its not for coverage. its to smooth out brush lines or anything of that sort.
hi, not sure why you're talking about me in 3rd person. anyway, if using it the way you described works for you that's awesome :) i actually don't use BM any more, but when i did, this worked best. TAPPING THE EXCESS is what gets powder everywhere. i never had fallout. you are right about using very little mineral veil, but it is to set the makeup, there should be no brush lines since it's not an emollient product.
I have been using bare minerals for 6 years and love it...I have a similar technique to you, but when I don't tap the brush after swirling, I find that wherever I first put the brush on my face, the powder goes on WAY too heavy and leaves a cakey look that can't be undone without washing your face and starting over. This makeup is pretty fool-proof unless you put on way too much! Instead, start with thin layer of foundation and go back in with your concealer brush to touch up spots. Cheers!!!
the reason they have you tap it is so it gets more in the brush. you tap it with the bristles facing up and the powder gets compacted in the brush...
but anyways i love bare minerals myself. i have rosacea so i have TONS of red to cover, and im pale pale pale so it really stands out. bare minerals covers it really well and makes my face look really good! but its all in the application of it. if you dont apply it the correct way, it wont look that good! and thats no lie
I think your make-up looks good. I'm not a fan of "barely-there" make-up, but not too cakey. I love bare minerals, but I don't think it covers as well as I want it to. I don't know. I can;t find something I love yet?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Ok your using WAY to much! your going to end up looking completely fake when you done. you should watch the vid that comes with the starter kit because your doing it all wrong. ya shouldnt be doin tutorials hun
if you want to dig through the hundreds of comments on this video you'll find that BM themselves supported my method. it's whatever works best for YOU.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I think you should just do it the same way bare minerals show you how to do it. I use bare minerals and it works amazing but you should follow the rules. plus when you don't buff your make up it is not going to stay on your face it will come off. that just my opinion.
@TiffanyNo3l i agree with you 100 percent! i did the exact same method and it worked beautifully! i have redness around my nose and cheek area and i just concealed then swirled then tapped then buffed and it looked perfect and natural!
SO I READ THE REVIEWS AND THIS CHIK DOENT USE "BARE MINERALS" NE MOR! PERSONALLY SHE WAS USING WAAAAYYY 2 MUCH ! (thats why it was "cakey" nd dint last long for her) as for the order to use it 1. CONCEALER (bisque) 2.FOUNDATION 3. WARMTH (if u wnt) 4. MINERAL VEIL! SUPER EASY! AND THE STARTER KIT IS LIKE $60 TOTAL!
I LOVE IT !!!!!!! HIGHLY RECCOMEND IT!!!! YOU SHOULD BUY IT RIGHT NOW!!!!! Lol!
Would you consider the fairly light to have a reddish tone? I have the two medium tones at the moment and they have a reddish tone to them which really bothers me because I am trying to get the red out of my skin. Do you think the fairly light is more of a "cool" color?
well in some case with people who have fair skin tend to show redness more.
and dark makeup isnt always the way to go if you have red skin and your trying to cover it.
the best thing that i can tell you is to use concealer it really dose wonders for you but you can always try using to mineral veil in the starter kit too if you have that. cause i use the mineral veil plus the bare minerals foundation and it works really well or you can try and other concealers like green it works extremely good(:
You should probably just go to Sephora or Ulta and buy what you want separately. It's a makeup line and you can buy whatever you want - it doesn't need to be in a kit.
The order is supposed to go concealer with the foundation, then all over application with the foundation, warmth is supposed to go on all of the 'high' areas of your face [i.e. cheeks, nose, forehead and chin] and then mineral veil is used to top it all of! Hoped that helped!
Ummm...I had watched the infomercial for years before I decided that I would try wearing foundation [never had the need for it in junior high] and Leslie [the creator] ALWAYS uses it as a concealer and then a foundation! Example: when she covers the girls rosacea! I never watched my video because I had seen it done on the infomercial and QVC so many times by the woman who created it all...I'm just saying! And what sense does it make to put concealer on top of your foundation?!? Haha!
i definitely recommend putting concealer on after foundation. your foundation will cover much of your flaws. if you put concealer on first, you end up using a lot more product. it makes a lot of sense, it's just new to you :)
hey well i watched yur video and it helped me a lil but i hve a question ... i bought the starter kit and watched it , and it really didnt help me so like basically my difficulty is which goes first , secound so on and so forth... i have the foundation, the spf 15 sunscreen foundation and the mineral viel and the warmth.. so what order would it go in? do i use all 4 or jus 3 4th opptional? or what im so confused and hopin for yur help thankss soo much.. gladys!
gladyselizondo:: you would use the foundation first, (i use the spf sunscreen one) using your full coverage kabuki brush, then the warmth, (i apply it over my forehead, and over my nose and cheeks) using your flawless face brush, then you use your mineral viel and apply it all over the face, also using your flawless face brush. Careful not to use too much warmth though, just remember a little goes a long way.
It does not look cakey if you put the mineral veil on first you would be amazed at how much better i was just wondering what it would do and i tried it if looks flawless and makes the pores look smaller i love it.. and then put a tad bit on after
Personally, I think (the gorgeous!) Amy is putting too much foundation on. She doesn't use this product anymore because it looks "cakey" - but that's ONLY if you wear too much.
The tapping after swirling does not waste the product, as only a little dust should fall from the brush. Don't put more foundation on the lid than what you can swirl into the brush.
This foundation builds with time, it looks better after 20 mins, even better after 3 hours from application. Less is definitely more!
For me, this is the best foundation I have ever tried. It stays on all day, looks natural and healthy, and there are no lines or problems with the shade. The brushes as well are very high quality and should always be used with this foundation.
So anyone just starting with Bare Minerals, go easy, especially on your first days! It takes about two weeks for your skin to really start embracing the foundation, so take your time, wear a little bit of it every day, and enjoy :).
i definitely think that the foundation is best for people who don't want a lot of coverage. unfortunately, i am SO not that person. i am more than happy with my switch to MAC foundation :)
I like how you apply the makeup on half your face. It really makes a bigger impact and shows the differences on a different level rather than a before-and-after shot. You see 'em as you go along.
I just wanted to say "thank you" for posting this; I just got the starter kit yesterday and tried doing what they said on the dvd. I became really frustrated because the coverage was lousy. After trying your "tap in the lid" method, I was amazed at how much better it looked! Thanks again!
You're really pretty though and have good skin so you don't need it.
One tip: when you're applying make-up etc on your face and also when you are taking it off with a wipe never brush down because it makes your skin age quicker.
People please don't think I'm talking shit my Mom's a trained beautition so she knows these things lmao. Plus she's goreous and follows those rules.
Great vid. I'm thinking of getting some of this so thanks.
it's the truth. you're supposed to be very careful with your skin. the more you pull on it the more it stretches and wrinkles appear sooner. crows feet, nasolabial folds? stretchmarks?
heres a tip even though it looks like you have none on your brush you do so instead of dipping it in constantly keep rubbing the brush around your face unless you want to waste the makeup!!
i love this shietttt lol i put mineral veil on after i put my blush on!or if i dont ill put it on after all my makeup i done.ill sometimes use the feather light one i loveee itt!!
ok so i just switched to mac and i think that its kinda working good but like it is st if i have an itch on my face the make up will come off but one question how muc did you get your mac for i got my set for like $35.00
I use bare minerals in the morning before i go to skool. My face looks good but during the day my bare minerals comes off even thoe im using mineral veil to keep it from comin off. Througght the day i have to keep fixing it in the washroom and i don't want to keep worrying it about it anymore can u help?
yep, get a new foundation. i stopped using bare minerals a long time ago, even though a lot of people are just now finding this video i decided i didn't like it after about six months. i found it gave me coverage but looked cakey and it didn't last as long as i would have liked. i now use mac foundations.
I've been wanting bare minerals for awhile but I'm worried about how much it costs! Does it cover as well as a liquid foundation? And do you have to use any extra concealer or anything in addition?
I have old wrinkly chemo skin. I used to have good skin and because of chemo treatments I have aged, REALLY aged. Not only am I bald, I have bad skin. I should check this stuff out. Does it have a fragrance? The smell of make up makes me sick to my stomach.
No fair! You have beautiful skin to begin with. :D
No, it doesn't have a fragrance. I have SUPER sensitive skin, and I hate how most makeups smell, and I love this. I swear by it. I wouldn't wear anything else.
My mother has gone through chemo treatments and has aged a little bit. If you cleanse with almond oil or grape seed oil you'll plump up a little bit more. It does sink nto wrinkles ans black heads /trust me/ so you have to really learn how to buff it on. Estelauder has some really beautiful light difussing make up for about the same price. Apply with a sponge. Oil you face at night, moisturize for day. Also retin a helps with that/ RENOVA. but theres a storm before the calm when using it
You have such clear skin! You look younger than me...cherish your skin! I am almost 23 and had 100% no zits all through school--just started having HORRIBLE acne at 21. Don't take clear skin for granted, ladies!!!
You did a very nice job on this. Thank you. But you do have gorgeous skin. I'm hoping someone with flawed or mature skin will be brave enough to post a similar video.

the reason they have you tap it is so it gets more in the brush. you tap it with the bristles facing up and the powder gets compacted in the brush...
but anyways i love bare minerals myself. i have rosacea so i have TONS of red to cover, and im pale pale pale so it really stands out. bare minerals covers it really well and makes my face look really good! but its all in the application of it. if you dont apply it the correct way, it wont look that good! and thats no lie

I think your make-up looks good. I'm not a fan of "barely-there" make-up, but not too cakey. I love bare minerals, but I don't think it covers as well as I want it to. I don't know. I can;t find something I love yet?

I think you should just do it the same way bare minerals show you how to do it. I use bare minerals and it works amazing but you should follow the rules. plus when you don't buff your make up it is not going to stay on your face it will come off. that just my opinion.

there aren't rules in makeup. i'm glad you've found something that works for you, but ...there aren't rules.
amy04 2 years ago 17
@TiffanyNo3l i agree with you 100 percent! i did the exact same method and it worked beautifully! i have redness around my nose and cheek area and i just concealed then swirled then tapped then buffed and it looked perfect and natural!

Would you consider the fairly light to have a reddish tone? I have the two medium tones at the moment and they have a reddish tone to them which really bothers me because I am trying to get the red out of my skin. Do you think the fairly light is more of a "cool" color?
mego2545 2 years ago
well in some case with people who have fair skin tend to show redness more.
and dark makeup isnt always the way to go if you have red skin and your trying to cover it.
the best thing that i can tell you is to use concealer it really dose wonders for you but you can always try using to mineral veil in the starter kit too if you have that. cause i use the mineral veil plus the bare minerals foundation and it works really well or you can try and other concealers like green it works extremely good(:

WHERE CAN YOU BUY JUST A KIT OF THE BARE MINERALS YOU NEED AND NOT ALL THE EXTRA STUFF LIKE THE BRUSHES AND VIDS?
funkypunk911 2 years ago
sephora
JuneWasntHere 2 years ago
you can try the boutique's but its going to cost you more money that way.
sevenslady23 2 years ago
You should probably just go to Sephora or Ulta and buy what you want separately. It's a makeup line and you can buy whatever you want - it doesn't need to be in a kit.

lizzdogg 2 years ago
The order is supposed to go concealer with the foundation, then all over application with the foundation, warmth is supposed to go on all of the 'high' areas of your face [i.e. cheeks, nose, forehead and chin] and then mineral veil is used to top it all of! Hoped that helped!
32ramirez33 2 years ago
actually, i watched the dvd that comes with it and you apply the foundation THEN concealer
thunderballs21 2 years ago
Ummm...I had watched the infomercial for years before I decided that I would try wearing foundation [never had the need for it in junior high] and Leslie [the creator] ALWAYS uses it as a concealer and then a foundation! Example: when she covers the girls rosacea! I never watched my video because I had seen it done on the infomercial and QVC so many times by the woman who created it all...I'm just saying! And what sense does it make to put concealer on top of your foundation?!? Haha!
32ramirez33 2 years ago
i definitely recommend putting concealer on after foundation. your foundation will cover much of your flaws. if you put concealer on first, you end up using a lot more product. it makes a lot of sense, it's just new to you :)
amy04 2 years ago
hey well i watched yur video and it helped me a lil but i hve a question ... i bought the starter kit and watched it , and it really didnt help me so like basically my difficulty is which goes first , secound so on and so forth... i have the foundation, the spf 15 sunscreen foundation and the mineral viel and the warmth.. so what order would it go in? do i use all 4 or jus 3 4th opptional? or what im so confused and hopin for yur help thankss soo much.. gladys!
gladyselizondo 2 years ago
gladyselizondo:: you would use the foundation first, (i use the spf sunscreen one) using your full coverage kabuki brush, then the warmth, (i apply it over my forehead, and over my nose and cheeks) using your flawless face brush, then you use your mineral viel and apply it all over the face, also using your flawless face brush. Careful not to use too much warmth though, just remember a little goes a long way.

It does not look cakey if you put the mineral veil on first you would be amazed at how much better i was just wondering what it would do and i tried it if looks flawless and makes the pores look smaller i love it.. and then put a tad bit on after
Headstrong071 2 years ago
Personally, I think (the gorgeous!) Amy is putting too much foundation on. She doesn't use this product anymore because it looks "cakey" - but that's ONLY if you wear too much.
The tapping after swirling does not waste the product, as only a little dust should fall from the brush. Don't put more foundation on the lid than what you can swirl into the brush.
This foundation builds with time, it looks better after 20 mins, even better after 3 hours from application. Less is definitely more!
jalojalka 2 years ago 2
For me, this is the best foundation I have ever tried. It stays on all day, looks natural and healthy, and there are no lines or problems with the shade. The brushes as well are very high quality and should always be used with this foundation.
So anyone just starting with Bare Minerals, go easy, especially on your first days! It takes about two weeks for your skin to really start embracing the foundation, so take your time, wear a little bit of it every day, and enjoy :).
jalojalka 2 years ago 2
i definitely think that the foundation is best for people who don't want a lot of coverage. unfortunately, i am SO not that person. i am more than happy with my switch to MAC foundation :)

I like how you apply the makeup on half your face. It really makes a bigger impact and shows the differences on a different level rather than a before-and-after shot. You see 'em as you go along.

One tip: when you're applying make-up etc on your face and also when you are taking it off with a wipe never brush down because it makes your skin age quicker.
People please don't think I'm talking shit my Mom's a trained beautition so she knows these things lmao. Plus she's goreous and follows those rules.

it's the truth. you're supposed to be very careful with your skin. the more you pull on it the more it stretches and wrinkles appear sooner. crows feet, nasolabial folds? stretchmarks?

yep, get a new foundation. i stopped using bare minerals a long time ago, even though a lot of people are just now finding this video i decided i didn't like it after about six months. i found it gave me coverage but looked cakey and it didn't last as long as i would have liked. i now use mac foundations.

hobosneakers12 2 years ago
My mother has gone through chemo treatments and has aged a little bit. If you cleanse with almond oil or grape seed oil you'll plump up a little bit more. It does sink nto wrinkles ans black heads /trust me/ so you have to really learn how to buff it on. Estelauder has some really beautiful light difussing make up for about the same price. Apply with a sponge. Oil you face at night, moisturize for day. Also retin a helps with that/ RENOVA. but theres a storm before the calm when using it
