I've been wearing bare minerals for 20 years. Tried alot of liquid foundations because I was watching CZcams! Nothing compares to bare minerals powder. Correct.. you must buff!
Same! I've been wearing Bare Minerals foundation for over 15 years and I will never switch to anything else.
I had no idea the powder had to buffed in! I hated the look when I used the pro powder. It looked terrible. I used my powder today and took the time to buff it in, using the same brush that you favor. What a difference!
Does anyone know how to get around the cracking? I travel with my makeup and it often opens broken. Is there any way to fix this, or find a work around? Like a certain tool to press it back down every time?
The first makeup my mom got for me to use was a bare minerals kit with the original foundation. At the time, high school me was so disappointed because it wasn't "fun" or "cool", but now I realize that stuff was perfect for a daily, natural look. Sorry mom! lol
HAHA SAME! My mom always wore it and I always told her it was for "old people" LOL
I got both my daughters the bare Mineral kits to start when they were 14! Same thing my Big Sister did for me when I started makeup too!
@@ShelbeyWilson omg! I said the same thing to my girls! Lol
I literally just pulled out my bare minerals again today! You got me into it years ago, I can’t wait to use it again!
🤗🤗🤗🤗
SAME
Me too😀!
Update: did not do well in the heat. Lol
Deylah Fountain wondered about that. And I live in Oklahoma and it’s insanely humid. So I doubt it would do well
You’ve literally increased my knowledge about powder foundation by a hundred. You have such a skill as a makeup educator with your descriptive, instructional information. Thanks!
Thanks so much!!
I forgot all about Bare Minerals. I used to swear by it about a decade ago. You make me want to get more, you’re flawless.
Bare Minerals will never go out of fashion for me. I have both original and matte. The only foundation I trust for my acne prone skin and in the Indian hot and humid summer.
Where do you purchase BM from? Been searching for it in India
wateva I am not sure, probably not easily available in India. I got them While i was in America.I am not on Insta so not sure if some insta stores have them
Which do you prefer the original or the matte one?
@@shaneloves_ oroginal
Just got told from my dermatologist 2 switch 2 bare minerals....does it really cover acne? or is it super light? :)
I found your channel several months ago by searching how to apply bareminerals powder foundation, and I've been watching your videos ever since! 😊
I started wearing Bare Minerals, back when Leslie was on QVC, and there were only 3 color choices for the foundation! I’ve tried multiple other powder foundations over the years, and I typically go back to BM. One of the best things I ever did was to go to a boutique grand opening with Leslie, and some of the company makeup artists. I had made an appointment, so that I could get tips, and ask questions. That was a game changer for me! I’ve continued to update my techniques over the years, and got some great new tips from you. Thanks for making these videos for us!
Thank you so much! I’m now 30 and so over foundations and really wanted to give BM a try and I feel super informed now ❤️
I’m so happy I found your channel. I’ve always worn powder foundation since I was a teen, and now I’m 33. There is such a lack of good info and tips on powder foundation, and you truly are a powder foundation expert, there is no channel out there like yours. Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge and tips! ❤️🙏🙏
Shelby, Great video. Sometimes I use a liquid foundation or CC Cream and sometimes a mineral foundation. You are so right about using that small amount of powder and buffing and building. I like the new design of the Bare Minerals brush, I still have the one that came with the kit for years. Take care!
I have watched your videos for years now and have tried and tried to figure out what I was doing wrong with the original formula of bareminerals. I did step by step what you were saying to do and it just looked so awful. The matte version looked a little better, so I normally wore that instead.
I had all but given up until I watched this video and you said you were barely applying any pressure with the brush. I decided to try one last time with bareminerals before I gave up and tossed it. To my complete astonishment, it looked amazing. All I have been doing wrong all these years is buffing too hard. I felt so dumb, but now I can use the foundation. So happy!
yes I'm so heavy handed with everything it's something I gotta learn to do is apply a light pressure.
Thanks for sharing your experience and I’m glad you figured things out
Your comment has been very encouraging!!
I keep forgetting to tell you how much I LOVE your new hair cut! It makes you look like a teenager!! I wore my hair that length for years... I’ve since grown it out long, and it lives in a messy bun. You’ve inspired me to cut my hair short again. Thanks for all the great content... you’re an absolute doll💜
Oh thank you! :)
I love your powder foundation videos! I refuse to use cream/liquid foundations ever again because my Mac Studio Fix Powder is my everything! I have that in 4 shades! A lighter one for my under eyes to brighten & conceal. One for my fairest, medium and my ultra tan skin in the summer. I even will rewatch most of your older videos on the topic just to refresh my memory in case I stopped using a technique. Please never stop making updates demos & videos on powder foundation, you hands down do it best!!
Can I just say I’m astounded by your transformation? I’ve come from one of your 2014 videos. And you looked perfectly smart and beautiful (and adorable!) back then too, but I’m LOVING the sophistication you’ve grown into. Thanks for sharing your journey, I wouldn’t have recognized you if not for the name.
I’ve been using Bare Minerals Original since I saw it on an Infomercial. I can’t buff it in for as long as you do because it breaks up as it mixes with my skin’s oil. For me a slight buff works. However, the star of the show is the powder concealer Bisque! I use it on my nose as a “foundation”. It’s the ONLY covering, both powder and liquid, that will stick to my nose, fill in pores, and last for hours! And the slight “peachy” color matches my skin tone perfectly. I even use it on my nose when I wear liquid foundation. It blends with whatever color foundation I’m wearing. Bisque is an amazing product!
Wow thanks for the tip about Bisque !!
Robyn,try the matte BM powder
I also use Bisque every day. If I need to cover a blemish/spot etc I will put a tiny amount of cream concealer on it and then Bisque over that. I have never found anything better to cover a blemish. I also use it on my nose for extra coverage. It’s such a good product.
Yes! I use Summer Bisque as the original Bisque is too pink for me, it just erases all those pesky little shadows under your nose, on the chin, smile lines etc. I just picked up a new jar of it last week at the Ulta sale haha 😆
I’ve been watching you since you were in college. I learned to use Bare Minerals with you and I still love it to this day. Thanks for the throw back 😁
I have been using Bare Minerals powder foundation and their primer for the last 15 years and what I love most is that it has adapted to my skin as I have aged. Added the liquid concealer to my routine recently when I started looking 'hooty' due to a required medication. I do use the RT brushes, but I think I'll revisit Bare Minerals mine up to compare. I cannot imagine fudging with liquid foundation now!
Your videos are what got me to try BM & powder foundations in general. Powder is so light but still gives you coverage & your skin looks like skin. I love it
So appreciate the updated video/reminders. I always worry formulas change or there are other options, brushes, combos to use. This is so helpful.
I love this video 🙏🏽 so helpful! Thank you Shelby! 🥰
I use to cake on my bareminerals until I found one of your old videos a few years ago. I'm so used to the great finish now that I can't go back to liquid foundation 😂
I love your powder foundation videos present and past! They really were helpful for me to see different techniques and reasons for what works and what doesn’t! As always you look beautiful!! 😘
I recently discovered you and you know so much information!! I work in a natural makeup boutique in Canada and I’m surprised how many people don’t give powder foundation a chance!! Love your videos and new subscriber over here! 💕
I’ve used this since 2000 going back and forth between the original and the matte ! I will always support this brand & color selections include my chocolate skin tones so that’s a plus
My favorit is Bare mineral Original, and it has been for almost 15 years! I love the finish of it! 😃
I have dry skin, but bare minerals foundation looks the best on me! I’ve tried tinted moisturizers, liquid foundations (& some were very expensive) but bare minerals is superior.
I tried BM years ago.... the shade that the girl gave me was NOT the one for ME and after I got the correct one it still didn’t work and now I know why!
Also... Why on earth I hadn’t watched any of your videos? Very well spoken, not too loud gosh I’ve seen only one video and I’m mesmerized by how elegant you are!
Thank you so very much!!!! It really made a huge difference!!! It even hid my dark spots the best ever!!! Now I am more excited about starting to wear makeup again and more often. It looks good!
Your hair looks so cute and chic! You are 100% the bare minerals expert!!
Loving using powder foundation lately!
Thank you, thank you, thank you Ms. Wilson. I’ve had Laura Geller’s baked powder foundation and have been applying it wrong forever. So glad I came across your video. I used your tip and, man, what a difference. My skin looks perfect. Thank you.
I'm not a foundation person, I just like to learn new makeup tips from you!
Woman you look amazing here. Definitely an expert. Love these videos so helpful. I used to only use powder foundation. Love bare minerals. Totally agree. Whatever you are doing it definitely works and you are glowing. Gorgeous!!!! 🔥🔥💓😍🍷
So glad I watched this. Recently went back to BM original, and my skin was looking awful. It was the primer. Changed back to a silicone based primer, and it looked great.
Oqtalyqqtalttql9jen9
Oh my god. I've been using the foundation wrong! No wonder it has been sooo underwhelming. I was confused on how the foundation looked so great on my friend and not on me. Turned out I've been using it like a setting powder lol. Thank you so much. I can't wait to retry tomorrow!!!
I can definitely attest to the longevity of bareMinerals powder makeup, I wore it when I was working as a flight attendant in the Middle East, we didn't have aerobridges at our base airport at the time, in the summer it got HOT in the plain, on the ground, and my makeup stayed put when I was sweating. Even when I came back from operating a flight throughout the night, most of my colleagues would ask me where I was going because I looked so fresh still!
Super helpful video!! I have super sensitive skin and LOVE the idea of Bare Minerals. Can’t wait to try your tips!
Love that u are doing recap. I started Bare minerals last yr because of your videos (age 49 combo oily)
Hi Shelbey, this is a really great video, thanks! 🧡 I was wondering if you'd advise me to go ahead, or deter me from, mixing the BareMinerals matte powder foundation with the original version? Would the formulas be okay stored together like that...? Also, could you potentially darken that mix with the warmth product and store them together in the pot? Thank you. I've found the matte version a little too matte but at the same time I have texture and oily patches that I'd not want to make obvious by using purely the original! So I thought it may be possible to compromise with a mixture. Not really sure if it would be best to mix them on a daily basis just in the lid, or if I could mix them and store them already mixed. I currently use medium beige. I own both the matte and original version. I also have the warmth product. I would like to darken the shade of the foundation a little without purchasing a new colour. You may know a little about their formulas having worked for BareMinerals so you might know if a mix would be okay xx
I Love Bare Minerals! I've been wearing it since it first came out. I'll be 50 September 28th and people don't believe me about my age! Makeup can either make you look older than you are or younger than you are. It's great for your skin too! I love it!
Oh wow! So good to know 😊 you look absolutely stunning! May I ask which formula of bareminerals do you use please? The original? The matte? Or the Blemish Rescue? And what setting powder or mineral veil as I see they have many different ones now? 🙏 Any recommendations on primers? Need as much tips as I possibly can get 🙏☺️💕
happy almost birthday!!!
Shelby I just love how informative you are about products. I am definitely going to take out my Bare Minerals and try what you said to do.
I think if you apply it correctly it gives a nice skin like look and a glow also. You look so glowy and pretty...love your bob cut❤️
You were the reason I love my BM so much. I bought it and didn't know how to use it. I have been using all of my 20s and I don't think I will stop
i think i've been watching your videos since the beginning. you are very good explaining the do's and, mainly, the don'ts. the buffer of powder foundation is the key. i used to just apply and go. never did any good for me. now, some years later, i stil use powder foundation, and because of what you explain so perfectly, it doesn't look patchy, or powdery, it looks good. natural, and that's what i personally like. thanks so much for your time
I’ve been using Bare Minerals since it was only available through the infomercial. Emily Noel uploaded a BM video today also!! Wise minds think alike!! I’ve watched every single powder foundation video you’ve created. You are a wealth of knowledge! I bought a mineral powder foundation brush years ago that isn’t a flat kabuki but more rounded with shorter bristles. It’s great at working the product into the skin. I know itCosmetics and Tarte have powder foundation brushes that work great!!
Thanks for this video. I have Bare Minerals but have gotten away from it trying other things - it's time to go ahead and try again - excellent video
I’ve never really worn face makeup, only ever done eye shadow and liner. But recently decided to try out foundation, concealer and blush contour. Decided to go with a powder foundation, but then realized many of the tutorials use liquid foundations, so this is very helpful, thank you 😋
LOVE this!! Bareminerals is my all time favorite brand!
Love this kind of content! 😍
100% agree with the brush matters and how traditional synthetic brushes don’t quite give the same effect as the beautiful finish brush! I found that it made a huge difference in application!
This is off topic but I trust your opinion, have you ever tried essences matte bronzer, if so what do you think? By the way you look so beautiful today, but in all honesty you always do 😍😍😍😍😍
I’m a Newby! This is perfect! I’ve used Bare Minerals now, for, around 22 years...
Bare Minerals is my favorite foundation of all time. It was recommended to me by a colleague and I was immediately hooked. Although I use other types of foundation on a regular basis, this is by far the most wearable and flattering foundation for me. It never looks cakey, still looks amazing mid to later day even in the sunlight. I love it and will never stop using the original mineral foundation.♥
Just started wearing my BM again since I am wearing masks, I’m finding powder works better under a mask and I’m hoping by using BM I won’t break out.
Omg me too! Less breakouts and less makeup transferring onto my mask. Magic stuff.
Me too
Me, too! I hope it helps!
Me, too!!
Same reason, lol. Otherwise my foundation just melts down under my mask.
Thank you! I have this Bareminerals foundation brush, and used to hate it. I applied my powder foundation with a elf stipple brush for years. I recently started to use my Bareminerals again, and since the elf brush was dirty, I used a real techniques brush.. things weren't quite right. After watching this video, I went and used that Bareminerals brush on one half of my face, real techniques on the other.. and OMG! You are so right! I must have been using the Bareminerals brush wrong before, because it is now going to be a favorite!
This is very helpful video. I just got bareminerals foundation power and I have no idea why I got so much power on my face!! Thank you so much!!!
I just got the beautiful finish brush and I love it!!! What a difference! I’ve got large pores and the brush blends so well the mineral foundation that you can’t notice the pores. Thanks for recommending it!
You are THE expert !!!!
Thanks for this great video! I am 49 and love bare minerals by the way i also use a great powder foundation from a company called LILY LOLO and it is awesome!!!! I have oily combo skin so sometimes powder foundation just melts off so... i don't use them often but i would like too😘
Thanks for all the tips👍🏻💞
Wow the quality of your video is amazing! Thank you!!
Love this makeup look so much, please post a full tutorial on it so so gorgeous!
Sweetie, you are more beautiful today than all those other videos combined. I didn't watch all of them through, just clicked on them to check you out. LOL I waffle back and forth between Bare Minerals (yes I've tried others and I agree it's the best) and liquid/cream foundations. I've used it since its inception and yet as I've gotten older I've been branching out to try other things to see if it might help my look - I'm 71 - can't say I've found the perfect one for me but I do return to the original more often than not.
I pulled my bareMinerals out after watching this video and can I just tell you...I have fallen in love all over again! I have worn this makeup off and on for 20+ years and watching your _back to basics/dos and don'ts_ has helped me SO much! Leslie Blodgett always stressed to only use a small amount and I somehow had forgotten that. So, I was kind of piling it on and I didn't like how it looked, and I stopped using it. At 60 years old, I have been struggling to find *the* perfect foundation and thanks to you posting this, I can finally stop searching! I have even jumped onto the BM site and am now on auto-delivery for the Power of Good kit! Thank you so much! ❤️
I haven't used powder foundation for the longest time, this makes me want to try it again.
I’m determined to get my powder foundation to work for me. Thank you for the motivation!
You got this!
Yessss, thank you for this!
I love bare minerals!!!!! Glad to find your channel now too!
Be was my first ever foundation given to me back in the days when it was fairly new by a coworker a d I didn’t know how to use it until years later when I was t working and started to watch makeup videos, it’s really the only foundation I love !! It feels and looks amazing almost like ur not wearing anything!!!!!! Ty for these tips!! I seen some of ur brush and face primer recommendations and I’m happy to say I have a brush from it and the maybeline primer, and am going to purchase that brush though for sure and I just ordered the pro concealer!! Ty ty ty!!!!! Xoxoxo
This is soooo goood! Thank u! CAnt wait for the next one!
Love BM powder original foundation. Also love face and body liquid foundation. The BM flat foundation brush Found on Amazon is fabulous.
I love Bare Minerals!! Their products are great!! I love it!! You can build up as much product or less product, whatever you want to do. I use a primer whenever I use the Bare Minerals powder foundation. It blends very well with my skin!! 💖
Best thing I ever did was switch to bare minerals and copying your technique. It's pricey to begin with but a jar lasts me about 7 months and I use it every day! I have a couple of their loose blushers too and they're gorgeous.
I agree. They've brought out other foundations, since they sold out but nothing beats the original
Your haircut is so cute!!!! 😍
I want to wear powder foundation when I'm older so thank you for the tips!!! 🤗
You look so beautiful with this look, the thumbnail really gave Rachel Green vibes.
I was wondering what i found so familiar about this look! lol
My first thought!
I'm new to the bareminerals world but already love the powder foundation. I use it as a consealer too with a smaller brush on spots. It works very well for me. I just had some problem to find the right shade. I use the zoeva flat foundation brush and it works very well for me.
Omg thank you for this video. Ive been googling for ages trying to find if i could put liquid concealer with bareminerals powder foundation. Always great advice ❤
Great, informative video. Even with my dry skin I love powder foundations, especially the original bare minerals and jcat Aquasurance. What are some other silicone primers that you would recommend?
Thanks, girlie🍃🌸
I started with bare minerals in high school. I’ve not worn any makeup in 2-3 yrs but vids like this always makes me wanna put it on again.
Excellent information! Thank you for doing this video!
Wow! Looks great, I usually use a little liquid foundation but I think I'm gonna have to try powder - maybe that will eliminate pilling?
Thank you so much for this!
I love powder foundation during the summer
I just got my first bare minerals powder foundation in the mail today 😍. Can’t wait to start playing! Edit: Then I finish watching this video & make another order!!!
Excellent video! This is the Cliff Notes for powder foundation.
Holy crap, this helped me SO much girl! Thank you!!!
Thank you!! Love it.
I’ve just ordered some Laura geller powder foundation and I’m SO glad I watched all your tips first! As I’ve never used powder foundation before but my skin is aging (55) and I just want something very light and easy to apply now.i honestly haven’t worn foundation for years so looking forward to trying it and I’ve ordered the bare minerals powder brush you recommended. Hopefully they work well together 😊
I started back with Bare Mineral foundation about 2 years ago and my 67 year old face looks so much better. I use the fairest one am it was immediately and noticeably better looking skin for me! I love your teachings on it.
Yes that's amazing
that's amazing 💜💜
Great tips! BM doesn't work for my skin, but I adore the Alima Pure satin matte foundation. These tips will be super helpful to incorporate! Any advice for buffing when you're wearing a mineral sunscreen?
This was very helpful. I am new to your channel. Thanks for the recap and help! This has been so useful! UPDATE: I used your tricks and tips. A Kabuki brush is perfect and my base is flawless!
Thank you for this! Have to try this application today 💪
Hope you like it!
Thank you so much for your videos! I’ve been using Bare Minerals for a few years now but didn’t know how important it is to buff it in for a longer amount of time. Thank you for teaching me that. Question - when you’re applying BM foundation and buffing, are you buffing it up onto your eyelids? I’ve normally avoided applying foundation to my lids because I have hooded eyes and having foundation under my eyeshadow just accentuated my eye wrinkles (I’m 67). Do you have any suggestions for me? BTW, I love Bare Minerals foundation because it’s the only foundation that covers all the broken capillaries on my cheeks, which makes my cheeks look red all the time, and yet still looks natural.
Thank you for that information! I’ve been using too much powder and never really took the time to buff!!!
That’s how I found you too. Now you’ve got another sub 😊
I bought bare minerals packed powder foundation because you talked me into it. I usually don't use one but you said, "there's one for everyone" I believe you. I can't wait to use it with my thinner textured foundation from bare minerals.
this was so helpful thank you!
Top 10 most helpful makeup video I've watched of 2020.
I have always used the bare minerals brush so soft a dense. Feels lux. Love your make up today pretty pink eyes and blush color lipstick.
This was so helpful. Thank you!
Wow can’t wait to try this 🙌🏼. I’ve been wanting to go back to BM and this is clutch lol
I totally agree with what you said. In fact I noticed several years ago that the more you buffed a small amount and then moved on to another part of your face, the better the result. I thought I was crazy, but the way you explained what happens, it all makes sense. I have strayed sometimes trying other foundations (some with not great results--many liquid foundations oxidize on me) and find I always gravitate back to the BM line. The only gripe I have is that they did not name the compact powders the same as the original line. I always know what shade(s) I use in the original, but cannot find the correct shade in the compact. I like the compact, just can't find the shade I need. p.s. I have tried the Ulta loose mineral foundation to be quite nice too, just not much of a shade range tho.
