Concealer Brush

It's time to apply mineral foundation makeup. How do you do it? It's pretty much the same as how you would apply any makeup.

First, you need to prepare your skin. Wash your face with a gentle cleanser, use a bit of toner, and apply a moisturizer. Allow this moisturizer to be completely absorbed (usually about ten minutes).

Next, apply a pore minimizer, primer or a concealer. This polishes the surface of your skin.

Then, apply the mineral foundation makeup. Use either a powder brush, or a sponge, depending on how much facial coverage you need.

Dip the applicator - either the brush or sponge, into the foundation. Tap the excess off on the edge of the container. (If you like, pour just a bit of the powder into a separate container - perhaps a jar cap, so that you won't use too much.)

Begin at the outside edge of your face and work inward, using a circular motion to apply the foundation - using one layer of a time. Should you apply too much, simply wipe off the excessive with a tissue.

It does take time to learn how to apply the makeup properly. Depending on how you apply it, the look can be totally different. You're not really "dusting" your skin with the powder, but actually "buffing" it - which helps it adhere to the oil in your skin. The more you buff, the heavier the layer of makeup. It will take practice to learn the proper technique.

Finally, apply a setting powder. You will definitely notice the difference in a few hours if you do not use a setter. Mineral Veil, by bareMinerals, is a popular such setter, which you can use with any mineral foundation makeup.

What is a good concealer brush?

I'd like a brush for concealer that I can use mainly for spot concealing and for redness around my nose, and maybe for my eyes, although some I have seen look too small to be good for under the eyes! Any good suggestions on reasonably priced brushes that can be good for bigger and smaller areas? I want to try the Urban Decay and Stila brushes.. I live in Canada as well, so anything that's at Sephora, MAC or any canadian stores would be great. Thanks!

The Laura Mercier Concealer brush is awesome and is great for precise and detailed concealing. LOVE it!! U look less makeup-y that way. Make sure you set your concealer with a very fine translucent powder like the HD powder by Makeup forever so that your concealer says on all day. Any liquid or cream pretty much needs to be set with powder for it not to fade or transfer during the day and the least powdery-looking is HD powder. Both you can get at sephora. By the way- use a foundation brush for larger areas. Sephora's platinum brush collection is good for a foundation brush. You'll get better looking coverage for the small area using a small-tip concealer brush like the Laura mercier one. She also has the best makeup sponges and smokey eye brush) which I use for making a little cat-eye to give my eye a lift at the ends without looking too crazy drawn on. Good luck
