make sure to test it out before buying because some people are allergic to mineral makeup
i stopped using it because of the stinging sensation in bare minerals. i don't recall the particular ingredient that caused it, but those interested can do a google and figure it out. i moved on to pure minerals and it never happened, so prefer that one. just trying it in the store won't be enough, it is heat or humidity that activated whatever the hell that caused the pain and redness.

currently all i am using is a pink primer called "that girl" it gives me a nice glow. and i use a very light peach pink blush on cheeks and chin and forehead to follow it up. love it. sooo light and skin has been looking fabulous.
 
One of my best friends, who has amazingly clear skin, cannot use mineral makeup. She's no stranger to product but it makes her break out crazy. I think it works well for most people but it's worth trying out before buying just to be sure!
 
I have used several different brands of mineral make-up, but I liked Coastal Scents Honey Glow the best. It gives a really nice glowy look, and doesn't look as dry on the skin as some variations can.

It's also really reasonably priced, even with shipping from the states! Also while I'm at it I can definitely recommend their amazing eyeshadow palettes - I have the 88 palette and I ADORE it. So many colours, such great colour pay-off, and so cheap! :)
 
Thought you guys might like to see my anime eyes I did for Supanova this weekend.

I heavily referenced Michelle Phan's video on anime eyes.

Here's the result;

That silver looks a lot like Zoya - Trixie!
(Which looks great on your tips for a funky french manicure)

I only like putting light colours on my finger nails like pink or pearl so it doesn't look as bad when it chips.
On my toes i like dark colours, esp dark blue.
 
If I were to go have my nails done professionally- like a manicure and all, would the nailpolish last longer or no? Is it the same thing?
I'm thinking about going in for a mani/pedi, since I've never had a pedicure.

BUT, if the polish doesn't last longer than I might as well use that money for something else :D
 
I effed up my big toe polish after hiking in the past 2 days.
This is why I bring my own colour so I can touch it up.

I do not feel that nails done at the salon last any longer than a home job.
