Hi,

I am having trouble in wearing my minerals make up. It makes my skin oily after a few hours. Currently I am using Bare Minerals as I heard some good reviews about this product esp. for oily skin. Honestly, I love Bare Minerals as it helps my skin to look nice even with my few acne scars

. Maybe I am applying my make up wrongly. Please I would appreciate some help.

Thanks.

I have heard that those little disposable wedge sponges used in upward strokes are better than blending using your fingertips. I tried to use those when I used foundation years ago but it seemed to waste the product not to mention sponges. Foundation also makes my skin more oily.

Now I just dot glo-minerals concealer onto the imperfections and lightly blend with clean fingertips. Then I brush on my mineral powder bronzer to even out my skin tone and help the oilies. Sometimes I have to blot my face during the day to absorb access oil before I reapply powder so that it does not cake onto the oily spots. I find that this routine does not feel so heavy on my skin.

O Pumi...do you like Bare Minerals???? I haven't tried it but I thought I had read a post by you that you did not like it. Maybe I should try it after all.
