Questions & Answers for Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Blush

Question
What blush color is right for me?
I have a mild skin condition - rosacea, and my dermatologist recommended your product. I received the Get Start Kit in fairly light/light. It looks great! Now I'm looking for a blush. Since I have fair skin with red undertones, I would also like to point out that I have blue eyes and red hair. What colors would you recommend. I always wore a brownish-rose color. I want to look natural, but definately want some color on my cheeks. Any suggestions on a blush color? Thank you!

My favorite shade is Thistle (rose sand). To me it seems like a really good neutral. I have very fair skin, and I really don't like anything that's too pink, orange, or plum. This shade is a nice balance.

Try the Thistle Blush. It has a brownish-red shade to it that won't make your cheeks look garish okay. Also, I find it to be a very neutral color, okay.

A peachy or lightly golden blush would complement your hair and eyes and help to keep away from that red-faced look that you would get with a pinker shade and push you more towards a complexion more in line with peaches and cream than rosy.

I am not a professional make-up artist, but I love applying make-up and my friends always ask me to do their make-up for formal events and weddings. I haven't memorized the names of the shades, but I would suggest a light peachy/pink and/or an earthy tone. I think that the peachy color and earthy color will bring out your hair color and make your blue eyes really pop! I would suggest to go into the store and try the testers.

I don't know exactly what your hair/complexion combo looks like, but I imagine you couldn't go wrong with Poppy. It is a antiqued rose color, and shouldn't contrast with your hair color too much as a brighter, redder rose color would. Overall, this color is so natural it will look good with all skintones, and won't overpower your look--just give you that pop of color you want. And be careful of the color samples on the computer, they look different/better in real life. Enjoy.

I think blush and foundation are very difficult to chose without actually trying on in person as everyone is so different. However, I use the fairly light foundation and have slightly red undertones and blue eyes and the Sorbet color looks very natural on me. Good luck!

Since the bareMinerals is probably covering the redness in your face I would say choose a color that looks like you naturally blushed..a nice pink works well on just about everyone and always makes you look fresh.

I have some redness to my skin as well. I use medium shade foundation and my blush id called Beauty. It is not very bright, adds just the right amount of color, but you have to use the right brush also. Sephora can help with that.

Rosacea can be a trickly little sucker to cover. But you picked the right makeup to do it! Steer clear of the high pigmented pink tones as all they will do is embellish the rosacea. I would recommend Beauty, Laughter, Sorbet or Thistle. Although some say they are pink, they have enough yellow undertone to balance the redness that comes with rosacea.

GOOD LUCK!

Question
Does this product replace 'warmth'?
My first container of 'warmth' lasted so long that I am just now looking to replace it. But I don't see anything named 'warmth'. So I was wondering if this Blush is what I should order instead. Thanks

This color blush is very pink, not like warmth. You would want a warmer tone to get the look of the warmth. Most BE blushes have a slight shimmer, the warmth does not.

amused or secret would be pretty- you can use your lighter pink blush and build off it with any pinkish red hues. because these are powder blushes you have a lot of versatility in mixing them or simply adding more coats to achieve your desired look.

You can apply this blush using the same method as teh foundation. Just shake a tiny bit of powder into the lid (a little goes a very long way), swirl your brush in the powder, tap off any excess powder, and buff the blush into the apples of your cheeks in a circular motion.

I turn the container upside down while the lid is still on to just get a bit on the lid, then swirl my brush in it (I just use the flawless face brush). Then I make sure to tap the brush off really well. Then I just sweep the brush over my cheeks smoothly. I do this before I apply my mineral veil.

BE has a blush brush that is very nice. They also have an angled face brush that works well for blushes. If you have a light hand and don't want to buy a new brush you can use the full coverage face brush or the baby-buki brush. You apply BE blushes just as you do their foundation with a swirl, tap, and buff. One way to know the location to satrt is to smile and start on the apples of your cheeks and work back towards your hair line stopping a little past the outer corner of your eye. If you go a little heavy with your blush, you can always buff in a little foundation over it. Remember the key to application of all BE makeup is to buff, buff, buff.

Question
HOW do you apply the blushes so they look NATURAL?
HOW do you apply the blushes so they look NATURAL? I can't seem to do this for the life of me. I have VERY FAIR skin. I end up with "clown cheeks". If I try to tone it down, then it either looks too powdery or too "corally". I need a soft, natural pink. I need technique hints. Shade hints. Also, a picture of what it should look like in the lid BEFORE you swirl and tap - you know - the AMOUNT of the product that should be in the lid. Thanks in advance to whomever may be able to answer.

If the pigment seems a bit too much you can do one of two things. You can make sure that on your face you have a good dusting of mineral veil or you can mix mineral veil with your blush. I find that this gives a very natural look without overdoing it.

Ok sweetie. Don't worry I got you covered. First of all. Turn your pot upside down. Then turn it right side up. Tap the top of the lid with your blush brush...HARD several times. (Yes a blush brush is definitely the way to go) Then swirl your brush in the lid to pick up some product. Brush the back of your hand with the "loaded" brush in a light circular motion. Now that you've removed all excess product, apply it to the apples of your cheeks. To locate the apples of your cheeps smile like your just heard a really funny joke. See the apple shape on your cheeks? It's right at the front of your face next to your nose. Swirl your brush in a light circular motion to apply it to that location. Now work your way up & gently brush towards your temples. If your still are not happy with the appearance, if it's too light, slowly build the color till your happy. You should have the look on your cheeks like your just had your first kiss. I think it is the most beautiful way for a woman to look....just a tiny bit embarrassed.

Need help- Beauty or Golden Gate
I have light brown hair, hazel eyes and use the medium beige foundation- can someone help me decide between the colors Beauty and Golden Gate?
I tend to have very dark circles under my eyes, so I guess I don't want a blush that would highlight that!
I don't live near a store, so I can't go and try them! I also use the Dolly lip color and Pure Radiance all-ove color if that helps! Thanks!

I wear Medium Beige, have green eyes, and brown hair- I'd probably recommend Beauty because it seems to have more color pigment to it. Golden gate looks really light and peachy, and would be really light on your skin. Unless you like really faint blush, I'd probably say go with Beauty. As for the dark circles, use some summer bisque!
