BARE MINERALS Make Up - it's different than anything I have tried in the past

Do you have any friends or colleagues that have that beautiful glowing skin? Like they don't wear much make up, yet look great. Well I was one of those people asking myself, what do I need to do differently- I want to look like that... I wanted to be the "all natural" girl and when I looked in the mirror - I was not. So I did a bit of research, asked some friends and settled on trying Bare Minerals. It is all natural and different than anything I have tried in the past. I was not comfortable buying it over the web, so I found a local store and stopped by. Wow, it was overwhelming, hundreds of colors and brushes and products. So I had the beauty tech go over the products and process of applying the make up. I took my teenage daughter with me as the critic. I knew she would be honest with me and give me a thumbs up or down.


The application was simple and didn't take much time - I liked that! I also liked the fact that I could not feel the foundation, unlike the liquids I had been wearing for the past 25 years. I got the thumbs up from my daughter and proceeded to buy the starter kit and brushes. I took it home and actually watched the DVD on how to apply. It definitely helped me feel more comfortable with this new process, which is very simple.

It's been about a year since I switched and I have to say I get more compliments on my skin that I ever had. The only product I do not use is the eye shadows - I still prefer Chanel ( pretty pricey, but great quality and last a long time).

So here is a little bit about the product - check it out - I don't think you will regret it...
