Comments on: Nordstrom Exclusive: Bare Minerals Carnevale Collection http://www.musingsofamuse.com/2008/04/nordstrom-exclusive-bare-minerals.html A Blog of Musings From a Cosmetic Junkie Thu, 29 Jul 2010 20:01:19 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: the Muse http://www.musingsofamuse.com/2008/04/nordstrom-exclusive-bare-minerals.html#comment-6186 the Muse Thu, 01 May 2008 20:48:00 +0000 http://www.musingsofamuse.com/?p=929#comment-6186 ah I'm glad you're well darling :)<br/><br/>Oh lordie. When are classes breaking for Summer?<br/><br/>Mmm it is better I guess especially with SPF benefits but I have bumps and imperfections too and it feels wrong on my skin. You should try a cheap brand and see if it works for you. If you're oily then mineral foundation is most definately something that will help make your skin nice and matte. I've tried many brands including BE and I just can't love mineral makeup :(<br/><br/>Mixing to suit colors just blows!!!!!!! And I agree who has the time!?<br/><br/>Becca isn't a fav of mine but you never know it might be something you love. Physicians formula now has a line of minerals and if anything I'd lay bets that would good as they make a damn great inexpensive line!<br/><br/>If you need help getting it give a yell! ah I’m glad you’re well darling :)

With JI, i didn't really get my colour from their samples. I had to mix 2 different ones to get my skintone and i dont have time for stuff like that.<br/><br/>The next one i'm looking to try is Becca Cosmetics. If it doesn't live up to expectations then i'm done with MM. Hey hun…i’m good thanks….just bulked down with prepping for exams so i’m slowly drifting into darkness..lol…

I hate it. Not only does it appear ashy but it sits on my skin like a mask :P<br/><br/>I haven't tried anything from JI although I've heard rave reviews :)<br/><br/>The shadows BE does are very good. Especially glimmers! Those are gorgeous and I have quite a stash of 'em ;) hey Allysia-May!

Being that it's also mineral makeup gives it a bonus as i'm dying to change all my makeup stuff that i use everyday to mineral ones and then the ones i collect can be anything as i don't use those often.<br/><br/>Having said that, i've heard bad reviews about them looking ashy including Bare Escentuals. Have you had this experience. Oh, have you tried anything from Jane Iredale's line?<br/><br/>I think i'm going to do down to my local spa/salon next month and check out the BE line. I'm loving the colours i see... It actually looks like a collection i’d be interested in.
