Foundation. Then setting face with a powder?

I know you're supposed to set your face with a powder. So, in your opinion which should i get thats great?





1- regular pressed powder (my skin tone)


2- Bare Escentuals Mineral VeilFoundation. Then setting face with a powder?
I've never liked using BE before but the mineral veil is worth using. It absorbs the oil on you're skin and helps hydrate it for the day. You can use regular pressed powder if you wanted but any pressed powder works the same so prices vary compared tto the mineral veil.Foundation. Then setting face with a powder?
I love Bare Escentuals -- the mineral veil is great, but they also have regular powder that you can get in your skin tone. Both work great, if your skin is very clear and you don't have many imperfections you need to hide, the mineral veil would be great over foundation. The regular powder in skin tone is better for hiding things, but it might be a little much over foundation.





Good luck,

i started using Dinair Airbrush Makeup 2 years ago and something thats wonderful about it is there is no concealer, foundation, setting powder and all of that extra stuff...it is just airbrush foundation that stays on all day, takes 2 mins to put on, looks flawless, covers everything, and is all waterproof so its not bad for ur skin. anywho, if u google Dinair you'll find their site and u can look through it...hope i made a helpful suggestion.
Depends on how much money you want to spend. If you don't need anymore coverage after applying your liquid foundation, any cheap translucent powder will do the trick. You don't need to spend the extra money on the Bare Escentuals one. :)
i use a pressed powder and i like it(:

What are the attributes of powdered Dried Rose Petals as a face pack??

ok..i have an idea to use dried the rose petals powdered(coursely) as a face pack..


My question is what is the use of using it as a face pack? does it whitens the skin???What are the attributes of powdered Dried Rose Petals as a face pack??
it willbe like applying rose water


with rose powder add sandal wood powder add honey


rose powder makes your skin glowWhat are the attributes of powdered Dried Rose Petals as a face pack??
it nourishes the skin giving it a youthful glow and sheen... it doesnt necessarily whiten the skin but it makes you bloom... and it also makes the skin soft and supple
Uhm these will cause the skin to tint whatever colour the rose is. They say that if you put red rose petals on a bed before lovemaking, after lovemaking you can see where your skin touched them because the colour leeches out of the petals.
will not whiten it will actually leave a red stain for example, if you are using red roses.





the application esp crushed up will work as a mild, scented exfoliant however and help remove dry skin.





Skin whiteners usually come in a cream or pill form and you should talk to a dermatologist about this.





Messing with your skin without sound knowledge is never advised.





Talk to a professional first before you end up doing something you might regret.
use milk and saffron as a face pack...


it will whiten skin.....


or use rose water and multani mitti ,honey


(honey acts as bleaching agent.)


i dont know abt dried rose petals.......


sorry :-(

All about face products - foundations, powder etc?

Okay i know this is going to be a stupid question but i really need to know. So for a long time, i've only been putting on eye makeup, blush sometimes concealer etc but now i want to look into the whole foundation and powder products. so here's my question





What is REALLY the point for FOUNDATION and POWDER?


besides hiding the blemishes also what is skinfinish for MAC?





thank you!


hope i get answers what i'm looking for!All about face products - foundations, powder etc?
The point of foundation and powder is to even out your skin tone, so your complexion is smooth and even. As close to flawless as you can get it.





Foundation comes in several forms- There are liquid foundations, powder foundations, cream/mousse foundations, and foundations that come in stick form. The most common ones are liquids and powders though, so we'll stick to those. Liquid foundations are usually more suited for dry skin, as they usually contain more moisturizing ingredients to keep skin from drying out as the day goes on. You should always moisturize (ideally with a moisturizer with SPF) before you put on any sort of make up, but for some dry/combination skinned ladies, moisturizer just isn't always enough. Liquid foundations are usually set with powder, but NOT powder foundation. Most companies make an invisible (or ';translucent';) setting powder, that will keep your liquid foundation from coming off all over your clothes/hands/whatever you come into contact with during the course of your day. Common problems with liquid foundation include the ';mask look'; which occurs when a slightly lighter/darker foundation is not blended correctly around the edges of the face/neck, and looking ';cakey'; which means that the foundation isn't even, or is applied too thick in certain areas.





Powder foundations are usually geared towards ladies with combination/oily skin, as most powders contain silica, an ingredient known for its ability to absorb excess oil from the face. Like I said earlier, it's a good idea to moisturize before applying any sort of foundation, but it is especially important to moisturize or apply a good primer to your face before using powder foundation, as it will give your powder something to ';stick'; to. Powder foundations come in all sorts of different coverage levels, but don't expect to get full coverage from a powder. Most powder foundations are best when applied with a powder brush (for example, a MAC 150 or 134), but for more coverage, a kabuki style brush may be used. Common problems with powder foundations include looking ';chalky'; which basically means that the powder isn't milled very fine, and it isn't blended in all the way. This can be alleviated by using a spray like MAC fix+ over powder foundation.





So here are some things to consider before you invest in your first foundation:


-What type of skin do you have? Oily? Combination? Sensitive? Acne Prone? If you have sensitive or acne prone skin, you'll most likely want to try a foundation that is formulated especially for sensitive/acne prone skin. Bare Minerals, or any other kind of mineral foundation get rave reviews around here. Almay makes several different kinds of foundation that are hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic (non pore-clogging)


- What kind of coverage are you looking for? Hot tip: You probably don't need as much as you think you do. The idea of foundation is for it to look natural. Liquid foundations tend to have better coverage selections, from very light (ie tinted moisturizer) to full (something like MAC Studio Sculpt foundation)


- What shade are you? This is usually the trickiest. If you're looking to find a higher end foundation, I completely and totally recommend going to a counter/store and getting your foundation matched by an associate/artist. If you're going for a drugstore foundation, grab a friend for a second opinion. If you're swatching, don't swatch on your hand-- it's a different color than your face. Swatch on your cheek, and go for the foundation that is the most subtle.





To answer your other question, MAC mineralize skinfinishes are mineral powder compacts from MAC. People use them for all sorts of things: Blushes, highlighters, contouring... I even use some of the Mineralize Skinfinish Degrad茅s from the Brunette Blonde Redhead collection as eyeshadows. MAC also makes the Mineralize Skinfinish Natural collection, which are essentially mineralized powders that can either be used lightly to set liquid foundation or by themselves as a light coverage foundation.





Hope this helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to drop me a line. :)All about face products - foundations, powder etc?
Foundation and powder is usually to make the skin look clearer. It'll obviously cover up blemishes and uneven skin tone. If you DON'T need to necessarily wear them, then don't because they make your pores larger..and in the near future you'll soon be depending on them before you leave the house. I'm not sure what skinfinish is from Mac but I AVOID MAC FOUNDATIONS, they're good at covering up but they're actually DESTRUCTIVE to the skin. I'd stick with something like Bare Escentuals where they actually don't harm the skin yet do the job. Just my personal opinion...
Foundation is used as a solid base to start with. Think of it as a clean canvass to start painting with. The powder foundations are really good because they are so light you don't even feel like you are wearing it. Skinfinish is a cream powder used to set foundation or fix it during the day.

clinique all the way, i always used mac or chanel or lancome and clinique the cheapest one of all 3 has make up that is actually good for your skin and helps clear it. also it has great coverage.
I use foundation that as a flawless finish - when i go out pub/clubbing.





Through the day i use a light reflection foundation - its not as heavy as and makes the skin look dewy and bright.
There is no point besides hiding blemishes

If Sarah Palin cannot handle a powder puff interview with Sean Hannity, how is she going to face down Putin?

She is a light weight yet to be exposed. I am disappointed in McCain for picking her.If Sarah Palin cannot handle a powder puff interview with Sean Hannity, how is she going to face down Putin?
I am sorry, but a women who was governor of a state with half the population of the CITY I live in is not in the same league as Mr. Putin.





I mean she doesn't even know what the 'Bush Doctrine' is. Although, in reality, it is probably the 'Cheney Doctrine'. Whatever it is, she doesn't have a clue. All she can do is read speeches written by someone else.





She is currently boning up on her 'foreign policy' skills by meeting with international government leaders such as Bono, of U2, for crying out loud.





Heaven forbid that John McCain get elected, but the thought of Sarah Palin as being one heart beat away from the presidency quite frankly is too ominous to bear.





If Sarah Palin cannot handle a powder puff interview with Sean Hannity, how is she going to face down Putin?
Oh they all must handle her with ';the gloves on'; or the republipukes start crying sexist, and unfair





There is a web site....and i'll try to post it if i can find it again.....ALREADY SELLING SIGNS accusing biden of sexism...and the debate hasn't even happened yet.






And what makes you think Obama can. All he is, is talk. He would never be able to stand up to some who had clsoe to the same power has he has. Someone who has been pampered my the media, has no exsperience in what the real world will deal to him.
She is sooooooooo passe. 15 minutes of fame undeserved..gone, gone


Tina Fey did her better than Sarah Palin so whatever her handlers are shaping is just as gone as TinaFey/Sarah Palin...






She won't be able to. The Hannity interview wasn't an interview, it was a joke. He only asked about three questions and they were questions a fifth grader could answer.
She seemed to handle that interview fine. Perhaps she could focus on our domestic agenda and not handle Putin. He would be a lot less dangerous if we weren't encouraging his neighbors to cause trouble.
?





Her interview with Hannity was actually quite good... All in whether you're a Palin Hater or not, I guess....
She's not going to be able to handle any other country her and mccain is going to get us all into a world war.
Putin's easy - she knows all about him.





After all - she can see his country from Alaska.
He coddled her, fed her answers, asked questions with answers in them. This ***** will implode, give it time!
I'll give you a hint: Starts with 'blow' and ends with 'job'.





(I hope that doesn't come across as sexist.)
cowering in fear
She won't.





That's what you want to hear :P
she'll run to her GOP cone of silence
exactly. What does it tell you about McCain, who picked her? Do you think he put this country first?
Palin has the balls of men to face Putin.
  • lower eye liner
  • Ponds face cream and powder foundation?

    Okay I bought CoverGirl Fresh Look Pressed Powder cosmetic and every time I put it on my face it seems like it fades off later on in the day. I was thinking about getting some ponds face cream and then put the press powder on after. Will it work? I'm just scared to get liquid foundation because I seen a lot of people wear it and there face has a lot of bad acne.Ponds face cream and powder foundation?
    yes it will work :) it's what i doPonds face cream and powder foundation?
    the moisturizer will actually soak up all the powder, and it wont last as long. moisturizing is always something you want to do before makeup though, so id put that on about 15 minutes before putting on makeup. your best bet to help it last longer is to get a primer to put on AFTER moisturizer and BEFORE powder





    http://www.walgreens.com/store/product.j鈥?/a>








    that one is great, just dont use a ton, and dont be scared by the color because it goes on clear.





    and dont be scared to use foundation, not everyone breaks out from them, i have horrible sensitive skin and the only one to break me out was lancome. a GREAT foundation thats very light and sheer is by maybelline,





    http://www.walgreens.com/store/pickcolor鈥?/a>





    so maybe give that a try as well.





    :D
    you can get a liquid foundation just read the back of the bottle and look for the words non comediogenic... this means the product is safe and wont give you acne.





    a better option would be to invest in a mineral foundation. make sure that is does not contain bismuth.





    both of these will last much longer than pressed powder.





    ponds face cream is heavy and will give you acne faster than one of these other options.
    it actually depends on your skin type.if your skin is dry,the best thing to use is a liquid foundation..but if you got oily skin,use the powder..if you use powder,there's usually a base,so i think cream would work..but leave the cream for 15minute first before applying the powder..
    Won't help. You either need to reapply or just find yourself a decent non-comodegenic liquid foundation.

    I have an oily, greasy face, what is the best loose powder to use?

    Making skin tonic at home is simple and easy. All you require is rosewater and witch-hazel. Rosewater is one of the best-known skin tonics and is easily available. Witch-hazel is available at a chemist or homeopathy shop. Toners vary according to skin types:


    Mix equal quantities of rosewater and witch-hazel and store in a jar.OR





    Blend equal quantities of strawberries, pear, grapes, apples and orange in a blender. Apply a thin film of honey on face and apply this deliciously good fruit mask. Let it stand for 30 minutes and rinse off with warm water.





    鈥?Powder orange peels and blend in curds. Apply on scarred or pigmented areas and wash off after 15 minutes with cold waterI have an oily, greasy face, what is the best loose powder to use?
    Get the Bare Minerals mineral veil...it works wonders!!! then you can wear whatever powder over it. It just soaks up the oil...it has worked miracles for me and my oily skin!I have an oily, greasy face, what is the best loose powder to use?
    If you have oily skin, and looking for a great makeup, that is loose powder as well, please try the ';BareMinerals'; or BareEssentials'; line of makeup. You are the perfect canadiate for this makeup. It is sold online at QVC.com and in some stores. You can also order it from www.sephora.com. A huge cosmetics online store. my favorite. I have dry skin, and Ive tried it. It does pretty well for me, but my daughter has oily skin, and when she uses it,...her face is flawless. Its a silky loose powder makeup. You can also fine cheaper versions of Mineral Makeup in your local Walmart, Walgreens, etc. The site I gave you,...www.sephora.com. has a section of what products of makeup and powder for your type of skin. Go there and check it out. Good Luck! :)
    kanebo is great
    all i can say is that was a gross comment!!!!!!!!!!
    I also have an oily face and recently began using Lancome's Pure Focus line and i love it. It has a matifying lotion you can apply before your make-up that helps control oil. Also they have a t-zone gel you can also apply before that really helps control the oil. As for powder I use MAC studio fix its a powder foundation but it has good coverage and last a long time plus its in a compact so you can always carry it for any touch-ups that may be needed. I really recommend you using the pure focus line it is expensive but it really does work.
    A mineral powder like physcians formula mineral wear, it will help not to clog your pores its like those other mineralmakeups but last long and 1/3 of the price. I really like it and I have oliy skin. It will not clog pores being mineral- and talc free as well helps!
    I use dream matte mousse by Maybelline. Not a powder but helps with the greasies!!
    Try Arbonne's About Face Mineral Powder Foundation SPF 15.





    For realistic coverage, with minimal effort, reach for this pure powder foundation. This advanced formula includes minerals and pigments that are blended into a light-reflecting powder that provides sun protection, a natural look and a flawless finish 鈥?all in one. Offered in 15 shades, to ensure a perfect match.
