Just put it on for the first time but can't see any difference. I swirled, I tapped and I circled as instructed.

Any advice?

I really like it, I wear it with a primer and wear a couple of thin layers. It looks very natural but evens my skin out

Yes XiCi ! I recently had a make up lesson with BM and it made me look like I had aged about 10 years :-(. Went with my birthday money to buy a whole new make up set and left with nothing.

Jane Iredale worked much better on me for some reason.

Another one allergic to it. Luckily I tried it before I bought it because within an hour I could have ripped my face off.

exactly how I felt whippet. If I could have I would have. Even after i washed it it was still burning.

I second the simple use of just the powder otherwise it looks too caked on and false with all the veil on top. I found less is more and definitely rub into your skin.

When you've used it up go to Laura geller on QVC much more natural with great cover that lasts all day, that's why I stopped with the liquid foundation. Great for your twenties no so good for your thirties .

BM isn't as good as Laura geller but you've bought it now so try and experiment with it
