I think the color may be the closest I have ever found to my skin color(bare natural). That is why I am working with it trying to make it work. I used it the first day with bare skin maybe over moisturizer and it sunk into my pores and wrinkles like crazy. Second day I used BM primer for oily skin. Not much difference. Third day I used a primer from Lancôme. It has the very silicone but powdery feel. That worked the best to keep it from sinking in my pores. I guess it makes sense that liquid will fall into the holes or pores. I may try another primer and see how that works today. I won't say great coverage but I did not use a lot as it seems the more you use, the less natural it looks. Also I am a medium beige in the Ready and oily skin. Nothing lasts well on oily skin but this did okay and I lighted dusted it with mineral veil.

I shake it 50 times before applying and buff like crazy with the brush that comes with it.

I remember Leslie saying that you should never use a liquid foundation on your skin & then BE comes out with a liquid. I still use minerals. Are you letting your primer ""set"" for a few minutes before applying foundation? I found this works much better for me.

I had the same issues w/ it and couldn't for the life of me get it to look good so I sent it back - makeup shouldn't be that hard...there are many, many other things I use and like that are easy and don't require half a dozen steps to prep my face for it to work.

You forgot the part where she sold the company. Then things change and usually not for the better (IMHO).

Sorry its not working out for you. I find it an excellent foundation (had a review on it) and did not like the application with the perfecting brush at all, needs to much product for coverage & I didn't get the finish I liked at all & also seemed to settle with that brush.

A fluffy foundation brush works well with it & no need to buff alot, just spread it to cover. It doesn't settle into my fine lines at all when using these brushes. I used Sigma f80 flat top Kabuki or Elf's flat top foundation brush for 3.00. That foundation does need a silicone primer. Oh, Real Techniques Buffing Brush also works well, just drop a few drop on any of those brushes & spread with a light hand. I use 2 drops on one side of my face & 2 on the other....

I also still use BM's original loose mineral but not with the liquid. I like the liquid on it own but sometime with just a touch of Mineral Veil or nothing at all.
