So what kind of makeup do you use? Creams or powders?

Both

I have cream to powder eye shadows and loose powder, powder blush, and powder shadow.

I really don't wear makeup. Though looking in the mirror, I probably should.

When I DO wear makeup (which isn't often), I have a liquid foundation, but everything else is powder....

I could never get used to using cream blush, I ended up looking like a clown, I just couldn't get it blended right...:grump:

I was wondering that about cream blush--how do they get it to look right??

Well, I have a stick blush. Just dot it on and rub around in circular motion. You don't glob it on like it sounds like Deb might've been doing! :D A wee bit goes a long way.

I find I look like a clown with the powder blush! :doh:

You mean it should last me more than a week??? B)

:gotcha:

I've had mine over a year. :P

I use cream makeup, though sometimes I use a setting powder. My skin is way too dry and sensitive to use a powder straight on my skin.

I'm a lifetime devotee to Bare Minerals which is a powder base makeup line. I love the stuff. Sometimes when I'm feeling a little dry, I mix it with a dab of my facial lotion.

Mine's a mineral makeup too (Monave), but it's minerals mixed with a cream base. Not fakey petroleum base, but jojoba oil and stuff like that.

I've never used either...
