ok well I have a 14 year old daughter and she's starting to use foundation, will this damadge her skin now and in future?Does foundation make-up damadge young skin?
i would suggest to tell ur daughter to use Bare Minerals. it is a mineral-based foundation that gives flawless coverage. what it does? Bare minerals is made of only pure, crushed minerals from the earth, Bare Minerals SPF 15 Foundation looks like a powder, feels like a cream, and buffs on like silk, giving skin a natural luminosity while feeling as if u are not wearing any makeup at all. what else u need to know? the coverage is complete and is free of preservatives, talc, oil, waxes, fragrances, and other chemicals that can irritate skin and cause breakouts. also try to convince ur daughter to wear make up and foundation only when it is necessary. her young skin or complexion will be damaged by cosmetics. at 14 she should settle for mascara and lip gloss. my mom at 50 is free of blemishes and wrinkles because when she was younger well until now she hardly wear make up and doesn't apply anything on her face other than pure olive oil. i'm in my early twenties, i have flawless skin and i only wear make up when i attend important events like parties and social gatherings.
~cheska~Does foundation make-up damadge young skin?
It depends on what products she's using. Some products are bad for skin, but some foundations can be good.
If your daughter has relatively clear skin then I suggest a tinted moisturizer for now. Neutrogena has great tinted moisturizers. If you want something with a bit more coverage I suggest a mineral foundation. Mineral foundations feel very light. I usually forget that I'm even wearing mine. Some brands that have mineral foundation are Neutrogena, Maybelline, and BareMinerals.
No matter what makeup she wears, she needs to make sure that she washes it off every night before bed.
I suggest tinted moisturizer for your 14 year old, if shes just starting out with makeup.
If you sleep in makeup and wear it 24/7, naturally it'll make you break out. But it wont kill you or severly damage your skin in the long run.
Be more concerned if shes a sun lover and into real tanning, because that will damage her sin.
YEAH, it does..after taking it off, you will notice how bad u really looks, and thats depressing,
after using it, u must continue, they contain some kind of ingredient that cause damage to the skins, so after using it, u will need more from them.
i personally suggest not using it till older age,
your skin will be alot better later on the years.
Nop it doesnt. If she doesnt wash it off before bed, it will block the pores and cause blackheads. If she washes it off before bed, she should be fine. Im 13 and have been using makeup since i was 8. No, i am not a skank etc. i just really love the stuff =]
Yes,but it depends of their quality..
Mineral powders and especial natural powders don't damage the skin.I think so.
if she slaps it on like sunblock then tell her to cut it down a bit...if she washes it off before bed she should b alright...but i suggest u get her a mineral foundation....it will b better for her skin

Quality foundation make-up for dry/sensitve skin?
It seems like everything I try drys out my skin, including the ';mosturizing'; make-ups. I put on lotion first but still no luck. I'm not looking for the cheapest make-up here, but reasonably priced (maybe under $25). My skin is dry but can get a little shiny. Almost no breakouts, but a little blotchy so I need medium coverage.Quality foundation make-up for dry/sensitve skin?
Try puritycosmetics.co.uk. It is made from natural ingredients and gives your skin a lovely natural look.Quality foundation make-up for dry/sensitve skin?
moisturize well in the morning %26amp; at night. don't forget to exfoliate. we all have skin problems especially during the winter, it's just important to moisturize more during the cold months. try using liquid foundation instead of powder or even try a tinted moisturizer. laura mercier makes great tinted moisturizers so does la mer. both are definitely worth trying.
Dior Satin Finish Liquid make up
Try a liquid moisturizer from Benefit. Its like $27 but it makes the look come together and makes your skin look hydrated. Its called YOU REBEL
Hi dear. Don't give up! There are products out there that will help you. First, you need a day creme or moisturizer that is water based. Lotions that contain mineral oil sit on the top layer of your skin like saran wrap and just get wiped off over time. Water based products will penetrate the dermis and deeply condition your skin leaving it looking and feeling hydrated and healthy.
I recommend Arbonne as they formulate all of their products, including cosmetics, with natural botanicals that are beneficial for all skin types and will not cause dryness or irritation. They are formulated without any chemicals, wax, dyes, fragrances, animal products or bi-products, alcohol, acetone, or mineral oil.
The line defiance foundation is perfect for people with dry skin. Arbonne also has a mineral powder if you wish to give your skin a nice flawless look after foundation. If you love the products, you have the option of purchasing them at 35% off which will save you a lot of money. If you're open to trying a free sample of the day creme, I'm happy to send one to you. If you would like more information on the cosmetics, contact me and I'll get you the info. Good luck.
Try Aveeno or Clinique
Check out Clinique, or Lancome products (may be around $30 though)
You should try Bare Minerals... it works great! It provides full coverage and is all natural so it should help with breakouts. Also, make sure you are using a moisturizer after you wash your face. Sephora, Ulta and QVC all carry the line.
If your skin is dry as in flaking and feeling like it is tight all the time, I would go with Mary Kay's Full coverage foundation. It has additional moisturizer to help the dryness. If you have oily or kind of in between I would go with Mary Kay's medium coverage. It is my favorite!! I have used it for 3 years now (all oil free). They will stripe you for the correct shade and make it match perfectly so there are no lines across your jaw line. This foundation is only $14.00 a tube and lasts a minimum of 6 months! Enjoy!!

Make up (foundation, concealer) for oily skin with acne?
i want something that won't make my skin extra shiny at all because i hate that soooo much... who doesnt? :-)
also, do you think that i could just use concealer and powder? because i only need it in certain areas ( apples of cheeks, chin, nose)
thanks!Make up (foundation, concealer) for oily skin with acne?
i got oily skin as well, and i tend to break out.. but make up helps alot if you HAVE TO wear it.. the less amount of make-up is better for your skin.. i just use concealer and powder and its great.. dont use foundation!... if you can just put it on the areas you need then concealer is best. I use for concealer ALMAY senstive for acne prone skin.. and the BEST powder and make-up.. is called physicians formula.. it's make talc free so it doesn't clog your pores or affect your skin.. oh, and pointer - when you apply your make-up Concealer or powder, apply downwards always.. never push it up into the skin, alway go downwards, this helps by not pushing so much makeup into the pores.. hoope this helps :)Make up (foundation, concealer) for oily skin with acne?
I have really oily skin and I thought the best foundation for me was Loreal True Match Minerals Foundation Powder. You only need to apply once and it will stay on all day! It won't give you that cakey effect and it wont make your face shine, I love it! Benefit do some really good concealers, pricey yeah I know but they do really work. If you go there and ask on of the ladies they will advise you on which is best for your skin. =)
I have a very oily tzone... and slightly oily everywhere else on my face.. .go here http://www.youtube.com/user/ScottiBug and see the products I use and how I do my makeup :) my skin is very clear because of it :)

What foundation make-up would you suggest?
brand? I've tried about 3 different ones from wal-mart and all were about 10 dollars and they don't even seem worth it. Then I got some great foundation on sell from avon and well they don't make it anymore....
what does everyone else and works great??What foundation make-up would you suggest?
Contact your Avon rep or call Avon directly they can tell you what product replaced yoursWhat foundation make-up would you suggest?
ok ive been a makeup artist for 17 years. The only place to match up foundation is on your neck. Its the only place on your body with an even skin tone. Not your arm,hand,wrist or cheek. Your neck. Sometimes if you want good makeup you must spend god money as well. Cheap does not work which im sure you have learned. also try going to a Makeup artist. Consultations are free. Not the MAC counter or mall but at a Salon or Spa where they are licensed.
Physicians Formula. It's the only foundation I'll wear. It's a cheaper alternative to Bare Minerals but I still prefer it.
http://www.physiciansformula.com
I absolutely love Bare Minerals. It's about $25.00 for the large jar, but it lasts forever. Plus you don't feel like you have a heavy mask on.
i use covergirl clean makeup..its only 5.00 i think
try foundation from kohls or someplace fance. they have thm fo cheap, and they look great.
Cement makes a good foundation. Add rebar for greater stability.
try mac make up
and lancom liquids
try more expensive brands and do more layering
concelors cover welll..
i mix 3 diff brands and i top it with conceloron blemishes
i use bare essentials it is kind of expensive but it works great i believe you can go online to get it or i think it is on QVC
I use Bare Minerals, and I absolutely love their products. My skin is pretty red and uneven and I have acne, but they cover so well!! It seems kind of expensive at first, but it lasts forever and makes such a huge difference that its worth the price. Try the starter kit, because it comes with a lot of different shades, the bronzer, and other great products. If you go to ULTA, then they will match your shade for you, but its not a problem if you don't because the bare minerals seem to match pretty much any skin tone. My skin looks great now, and I bet yours will too!! I hope this helps you!!!
almay
I use Revlon Colorstay...it works great year round and it doesnt cost an arm and a leg.
I use bare minerals. I bought the starter kit at the bare escentuals boutique at our mall. It's also sold at sephora or online. Just know that I broke out at first and so did my sister. Turns out it was cleaning out our pores. We both have very healthy skin now to where we get compliments. It's wonderful stuff. I highly recomment it. It lasts forver too!
i echo everyone else who has said bare escentuals! it's amazing and lightweight and yet you can get a lot of coverage if you want. it's good for your skin, lasts forever.
Clinique- worth it and will last forever
Kirkland Signature by Borghese from Costco
Clinique (get the make up artist to match it to your skin...then ask for a one week sample to try it out)
if you have great skin, sometimes foundation isn't needed.
stilla from sephora-----about $30
Bare Minerals by Bare Escentuals is superior to anything I have used before. I strongly recommend you give this brand a try, I used lancome before but this works a lot better and it's good for your skin too.
Shu Uemura makes amazing foundation. It's $38 I think. It's totally worth it because you can go to the make-up counter and they will tell you exactly what color to use. It's made with deep sea water and focuses on hydration so it's good for your skin. IDK I love it. I've tried many of the drug-store brands, as well as Mary-Kay, and department store foundations...I still %26lt;3 Shu Uemura the most.
at qvc there is a line called bare minerals, it is great.
I love Chanel personally and think it's great. But if you would consider mineral makeup, Bare Escentuals is good too. You can check out some details and reviews here: http://beauty-tricks.com/index.php?optio鈥?/a>

Help in choosing foundation make-up?
I need to wear foundation for a school play. Can anyone recommend a foundation that is both cruelty free and oil free/non- comedogenic? Also, if there is a cheaper, drugstore brand that would work for me (versus buying it from a department store), how do I figure out what my color match would be since I can't try it on? Do I just look at the bottle and guess? Don't know if it makes a difference, but I am a boy.
Thanks!Help in choosing foundation make-up?
There are a cuople
there is covergirl clean liquid foundation its very good and oil free :)
also if you want powder
ther are
Maybelline mineral powder
and L'Oreal Bare Naturale mineral makeup
they all cover pretty well and u can get them at any drugstoreHelp in choosing foundation make-up?
ben nye. i used it for my school musical and it's great. doesn't wash out under stage lights or anything! :)
Max Factor available at local drug stores. Also use a tone at least two shades darker than your natural skin tone as stage lights fade out your skintone. Use Vaseline to remove the stagepaint... then use a toner to clean off the Vaseline.

What is foundation (the make-up) best applied with - brush, sponge, fingers, etc?
sponge is the best coz it spreads evenly and gives a natural finish. it's normally triangular or square in shape. so the tip reaches the corners of the eyes and nose and on the upper and lower parts of the eyes.
fingers tend to cause un-even spreading leading to the foundation being too much in some areas and too little in others. use the fingers to dot the foundation on ur face only.
due to the thickness of the brush, it takes up a lot of foundation in its bristles and cannot spread it nicely under the eyes, on the lids and the corners of the eyes and nose.What is foundation (the make-up) best applied with - brush, sponge, fingers, etc?
I've heard some makeup artists love the foundation brush, but most use the non latex white triangle sponges. You can find those anywhere. Stipple the foundation on instead of smearing it around your face, and you use less and cover all imperfections.What is foundation (the make-up) best applied with - brush, sponge, fingers, etc?
forget fingers and sponge. finger will not give it the right look and the sponge soaks up half of the expensive foundation you have just purchased and also gives streak marks and can leave that look. go for the brush invest in a 40.00 brush of good quality that can be washed repeatedly you always want to work from a clean brush and then use it on your face also will give you a more natural looking look. and not caked on like some of these sponges do and pads out there.
if u are using liquid foundation its better to apply it with fingers and if using powder foundation use a brush i recommend using loose powder
Try putting some cover-up on a sponge, then some moisturizer. It gives the whole face a young and healthy look.
Thats what I do. =]
We always used a sponge when I was in plays, it seemed to work fine. It gave a very evn coat.
For liquid: sponge.
Other: brush.
definitely sponge and if there are a few spots that wont rub in perfectly use you're finger! Make sure after you're done wearing the foundation to clean you're skin well and make sure it's all off other wise it will clog you're pores and you well get acne! if you have acne already using foundation to cover it usually looks awful unless you're zits have know texture( don't rise).
well i put it on with my fingers first then i go over it with a sponge to blend it and it looks natural and clean. hope i helped =]
If i may I am an Idependent sales representative for AVON and if you go to my webpage I have a lot of answers there and many more you may have. Try it it cant hurt to see. www.youravon.com/erivasiii
I apply with a sponge and start from the middle of your face and blend it outward. This will help with leaving any lines that may appear and avoid putting too much on.

If you use a liquid or cream foundation you can mix a little sunblock in it and get the same result.
I say foundation. Then you can put sunblock.
Put sunblock on first then foundation. Also, make sure you are using a good sports/waterproof/transfer resistant foundation so that you don't sweat it off!
I would use foundation or makeup with an SPF and then you don't have to worry about it.
Find a foundation that also has an SPF in it (try COLORSTAY ACTIVETM LIGHT MAKEUP SPF 25).
I suggest you purchase Foundation that has sunblock incorporated in it. this way you don't have all that stuff on your face and you kill two birds with one stone.
If you have dry skin, first use a light moisturizer (those with oily skins can skip this). Then use a sun block and wait for at least twenty minutes for it to be absorbed into the skin.
It is very important to let the skin absorb the sunblock before applying the foundation - you can use a tissue to slightly blot the face before applying the foundation.
Foundation may be applied last and it is best to use one that has at least an SPF of 15.

How many of you do not blow dry or flat iron your hair and how many of you wear make-up without foundation?
me and me lol. I only blow dry or iron my hair occasionally. I just let it dry by its self in a pony tail, anyone else does that too? and I only wear an eyelines and mascara...no foundation.How many of you do not blow dry or flat iron your hair and how many of you wear make-up without foundation?
I have naturally curly hair and I love the way it looks. I also have very nice limited edition red chi iron I only use it once in ahwhile. Them things are harsh on ppl who have really thick hair. So I Let it dry naturally most off the time. As 4 makeup I only wear Pyhsicians Formula Mineral wear Bronzing Veil its great if ur skin is prone to breaking out. Its very light but it also gives u naturally healthy glow. Oh and I also use little eyeliner, mascara, and lip gloss.How many of you do not blow dry or flat iron your hair and how many of you wear make-up without foundation?
When my mom stopped blow drying my hair when I was little, thats when I stopped! Dont got to flat iron... I already got straight hair, but I do like to put waves in my hair occasionally... I cant wear makeup at work, but when I get the chance to on my days off, I only wear mascara, lipgloss, and sometimes I color my eyebrows because they are so thin and light.
I blow dry my hair only when my hair becomes thin after I have washed too much hair dye out of it.
My hair is completely straight, so I have no need to staright iron.
I've only recently discovered makeup, and only recently desired to wear it, so I'm not even that good, or know much about it. Eyeshadow, Eyeliner, mascara, and sometimes lip stuff, but that's it. Anyway, affordable foundation that is easy for me to come by (ie. actually in stores...don't have to order them) are too dark for me, I have terribly pale skin.

I only iron my hair occasionally. Because i have curly hair so i just put moose in it, and leave it be. Mascara is the ony thing i wear.
lately I have been letting my hair dry naturally and I only wear eyeliner and mascara.
i havent blowed dried my hair in such a LONG time.
I am a lucky person because I went through my *acne* phase already, so now I dont have to worry about wearing foundation. Just eye liner and mascara
I only wear eye make up, never foundation. My complexion is pretty okay, and I just let my hair dry naturally, I colour it alot so I don't need to damage it any further by blow drying it! Every now and then I'll use the straighteners if I'm off out somewhere special though!
yeah me i let it air dry, put in ponytail or style with spray wax and laminating spray. and just wear eyeliner and lipgloss. mascara when going 'out'. and never foundation. a cover up for pimples rarely. people say i have natural beauty but do where lil makeup...lol thats when they say i have natural beauty! but most guys like lil make up...unless they the ones that like that tramps! lol
I don't blowdry or iron because it makes my hair frizzy and dry and generally awful. I have recently stopped wearing foundation and only use a light coating of powder to even out my complexion. My favorite look is a touch of eyeliner with chapstick... it's enough to make me look more awake, but doesn't scream that i took 2 hrs to get ready.

What facial powder (foundation) or make-up that can be bought here in philippines that is healthy?
what brands are they? and also has vitamins and good for the skin..What facial powder (foundation) or make-up that can be bought here in philippines that is healthy?
go to belomed.com ask them or everbilena cosmetics are inexpensive but it really works...myra 300e is good for skin also....What facial powder (foundation) or make-up that can be bought here in philippines that is healthy?
I use LA Minerals foundation and it's good for your skin. not sure if mineral makeup is poplular over there, but it is un the USA! I live in the south, and it's humid here, so mineral makeup is great for that. I use the Hollywood foundation they sell. I swim in it and it stays on! So, humidity is not a problem at all! But it feels like you are wearing nothing. I don't know if they ship to the Phillipines. You could ask. their website is http://www.laminerals.com
Hope this helps you some!
You can buy VMV Cosmetics, it's hypoallergenic. Max Factor has a specific foundation that is oil-free w/c won't clog your skin pores and won't cause pimples. Mistine is a product from thailand but is also available in the Philippines. They have oil-free powders w/spf. San-san cosmetics claims their products to be ';makeup w/vitamins'; so you can try that. But then, it has oil ingredient so if you're pimple prone, i won't suggest it.
You can find all of these in any mall sa pinas! Oh! One more, there's also from Godiva, they are herbal cosmetics.

Is make-up (foundation concealer eyeliner etc) really bad if you have moderate acne?
i have a bit of acne and scars and stuff and when i go outside i pile loads of make up on, it does a great job actually but i was wondering does this make acne worse in the long run?
its not actually made mine worse and i use the non-cosmogenic (something like that) which apparently does not block pores
oh and i cant go outside without make up if i have acne its just not an option !!Is make-up (foundation concealer eyeliner etc) really bad if you have moderate acne?
I have acne too which I can sometimes keep under control, but I definitely have to wear foundation to cover some of it. You have to watch out what you're putting on your face, even if it says ';non-cosmogenic';. Three ingredients you should definitely watch out for is ';talc';, ';bismuth oxychloride';, and ';cornstarch';. I think the best makeup for you would be all-natural mineral makeup...that is truly ALL NATURAL.
I'm not sure what brand of makeup you have, but pretty much all of drug-store makeup contains ';talc';, which is a cheap filler that can clog pores. So if you use Maybelline, Covergirl, or the sort, look for the ingredient ';talc';, and AVOID this if you have sensitive skin. Also, if you're thinking about trying mineral makeup, read all the ingredients carefully and maybe read about what each ingredient does for you. This is how I found out that Bare Minerals contains ';Bismuth oxychloride'; which is NOT natural by any means...it's a skin irritant and some people have reactions to this. So that is why I avoid Bare Minerals, even though they claim everything is ';pure';.
So...I've done a little research myself and I have found some companies that I think would suit your skin...and actually be healthier for your skin. :) I can give you a list of some companies that honestly use all natural ingredients in their foundations, blushes, everything. I will tell you what I thought about each one::
Everyday Minerals - this is what I use (foundation). I use the matte formula to control my oily skin, and their concealer in ';mint'; and ';multi tasking'; to cover acne flare ups. They are super cheap, just as much as drug store makeup, but they only contain 4 inert ingredients. They have over 30 shades of foundation, so you're bound to find a perfect match without having to mix two together. They just have a huge variety of colors and shades, it's awesome. Their brushes are the softest too. I highly recommend the Flat-Top Kabuki or the Long-Handled Kabuki brushes. They've never shed on me and I've owned them for about 5 months. One thing, though, that I would NOT recommend you buying is Everyday Minerals' oil-controlling finishing dust/powder. It contains ';Cornstarch'; which can clog pores too. Instead, I buy my oil-controlling powder and primer from other companies. I will talk about that shortly.. (www.everydayminerals.com)
-Signature Minerals - this company doesn't have a huge selection of shades, but they use the same ingredients. I personally liked the way Everyday Minerals went on my skin better than Signature Minerals. I couldn't find my perfect shade with this company either, but that's just me. You can check them out: www.signatureminerals.com
-L.A. Minerals --- okay... I hear really good things about them but I just could NOT get my foundation to match AT ALL, not matter if I mixed together different ones. They don't have a huge selection/variety. But I hear their ';Hollywood'; formula is AWESOME for girls with acne. Covers very very well... but I don't know because I couldn't find my shade. :( But I DO like their oil-controlling powder, in case you needed that. They are all-natural too: www.laminerals.com
-Fyrinnae - this company is pretty new to me, but I hear that their Rice Powder ';primer'; is AMAZING and will hold your makeup all day. I am patiently waiting for this to come in the mail! Also, I hear their oil-controlling powder is great too, it doesn't contain cornstarch either. But I hear their foundations aren't that great, who knows.. maybe you would like them. Here's their website: www.fyrinnae.com
There are probably a few more websites out there that only use like 4 or 5 all-natural ingredients in their makeup, but I HIGHLY recommend Everyday Minerals for foundation. It really does cover well. You just need to make sure to exfoliate your skin every day with a gentle cleanser (I use Dr. Patricia Wexler's acne exfoliating cleanser...sold at any Bath and Body Works store) - and then I use an alcohol-free astringent (alcohol increases oil production, so I try to avoid alcohol in my toner), and then finish with Aveeno's Ageless Remedies SPF 30 with shittake moisturizer (LOVE THIS STUFF! works really great as a makeup primer!!) - if your skin is well moisturized, your mineral makeup will adhere better and won't look caked up. If your skin is oily, you can try out Everyday Minerals ';Silk Dust'; which I'm using as my mineral primer right now... but I find it a little ';gritty';, but it still works great. I'm hoping once Fyrinnae's Rice Powder primer comes in the mail that will work even better...so we'll see :) Anyways, check out some samples from Everyday Minerals! It's like $3 for shipping and you get 5 jars of samples for free. And try to be patient with this..because it IS an online store so it's going to take a little patience to find the right shade. I had to go through like 10 shades in foundations before i found my absolute perfect shade. Good luck and have fun with this :-)Is make-up (foundation concealer eyeliner etc) really bad if you have moderate acne?
Just make sure that the make-up you buy is oil-free or says ';non-comedogenic'; somewhere on the packaging and it won't make your acne worse.
Anyway, I once watched a tv programme where a dermatologist said that most make-up won't make your skin worse, and even if it did a tiny bit, the psychological benefit you get from wearing make-up makes it worth it anyway.
most make up will block pores and irritate acne prone skin - I have had bad acne for as long as I can remember but have found that MAC make up does not irritate my sensitive skin. MAC make up is a tad more expensive but I recommend it for the following reasons -it was designed for flash photography which means that you wont look pale in photos because it does not reflect the flash. In fact this is how I learned about MAC my wedding photographer insisted I have my makeup done by MAC because of its flawless results . it does not cake-up or seep into pores even after hours of wear. it is not tested on animals.
Ps I understand you concerns about your skin but encourage you to also let you skin breath from always wearing make up. Try find your sense of self worth and self acceptance beyound your skin prblems....it really is liberating when acne no longer controls you. You should wear makeup because you choose to not because you feel you have to. Hope you condition improves
PS try MAC honestly you wont look back -even of your current product has you satisfiednyx cosmetic
its not actually made mine worse and i use the non-cosmogenic (something like that) which apparently does not block pores

Covers very very well... but I don't know because I couldn't find my shade. :( But I DO like their oil-controlling powder, in case you needed that. They are all-natural too: www.laminerals.com
-Fyrinnae - this company is pretty new to me, but I hear that their Rice Powder ';primer'; is AMAZING and will hold your makeup all day. I am patiently waiting for this to come in the mail! Also, I hear their oil-controlling powder is great too, it doesn't contain cornstarch either. But I hear their foundations aren't that great, who knows.. maybe you would like them. Here's their website: www.fyrinnae.com
There are probably a few more websites out there that only use like 4 or 5 all-natural ingredients in their makeup, but I HIGHLY recommend Everyday Minerals for foundation. It really does cover well. You just need to make sure to exfoliate your skin every day with a gentle cleanser (I use Dr. Patricia Wexler's acne exfoliating cleanser...sold at any Bath and Body Works store) - and then I use an alcohol-free astringent (alcohol increases oil production, so I try to avoid alcohol in my toner), and then finish with Aveeno's Ageless Remedies SPF 30 with shittake moisturizer (LOVE THIS STUFF! works really great as a makeup primer!!) - if your skin is well moisturized, your mineral makeup will adhere better and won't look caked up. If your skin is oily, you can try out Everyday Minerals ';Silk Dust'; which I'm using as my mineral primer right now... but I find it a little ';gritty';, but it still works great. I'm hoping once Fyrinnae's Rice Powder primer comes in the mail that will work even better...so we'll see :) Anyways, check out some samples from Everyday Minerals! It's like $3 for shipping and you get 5 jars of samples for free. And try to be patient with this..because it IS an online store so it's going to take a little patience to find the right shade. I had to go through like 10 shades in foundations before i found my absolute perfect shade. Good luck and have fun with this :-)Is make-up (foundation concealer eyeliner etc) really bad if you have moderate acne?
Just make sure that the make-up you buy is oil-free or says ';non-comedogenic'; somewhere on the packaging and it won't make your acne worse.
Anyway, I once watched a tv programme where a dermatologist said that most make-up won't make your skin worse, and even if it did a tiny bit, the psychological benefit you get from wearing make-up makes it worth it anyway.
most make up will block pores and irritate acne prone skin - I have had bad acne for as long as I can remember but have found that MAC make up does not irritate my sensitive skin. MAC make up is a tad more expensive but I recommend it for the following reasons -it was designed for flash photography which means that you wont look pale in photos because it does not reflect the flash. In fact this is how I learned about MAC my wedding photographer insisted I have my makeup done by MAC because of its flawless results . it does not cake-up or seep into pores even after hours of wear. it is not tested on animals.
Ps I understand you concerns about your skin but encourage you to also let you skin breath from always wearing make up. Try find your sense of self worth and self acceptance beyound your skin prblems....it really is liberating when acne no longer controls you. You should wear makeup because you choose to not because you feel you have to. Hope you condition improves
PS try MAC honestly you wont look back -even of your current product has you satisfied
New to foundation make up. suggestions please?
i am getting married at the end of june in the afternoon and want to wear foundation for the pictures. i don't normally wear it and have no idea what would work. i want something that is matte, and light as i don't want to sweat it all off. my skin is normal to lightly oily. should i use a foundation or a powder? any suggestions on what type? help please!New to foundation make up. suggestions please?
powder if your skin has no spots(zits) and use loreal paris. make sure u use the color matching thing on the stand. put it to your wrist.New to foundation make up. suggestions please?
Go to the cosmetics counter for a makeover and free advise %26amp; samples. I know Macy's %26amp; Bloomies but even Ulta3 store do them and it is awesome!!! They'll help you in every aspect. Hopefully you only get married once............go for it! Oh yeah, Congratulations, too!
go to walmart and go into the cosmetics section.
there's foundation for all available skin colors. which are sweat proof.
it's around $8-10 i think.......(b/c it's really good!!)
Splurge and go to the perscriptives counter at a department store they will match your skin tone with the type of foundation your after that looks totally natural. They'll also mix up samples for you to take so you can then see yourself outside which is the true test!
I wear foundation and the brand I use is CoverGirl TruBlend. It doesn't cake and is not greasy, but goes on light and smooth. It also matches to your skin tone very well. But not every person is the same, so I would try a couple different brands to see what works for you.
try freshcomplextion coverup and wet n wild blush
I love Bare Minerals powder make up. It covers well, has a lovely matte finish, and stays on, even through a 12 hour day in the restaurant! I have slightly oily, but clear skin. if you need heavier coverage, I would go for a cream pan cake with a powder finish. Got to have the powder to keep down the shiny nose and forehead!
Bare Minerals is great! I've used everything under the sun as far as foundation...even MAC, which is nice...but Bare Minerals in my opinion is even better... I bought mine at Sephora. And if you have a Sephora store near you, I would go in and ask - because the people who work there are trained make up artists, and ask what they suggest... not all people have that store in their city...
But you can go to a make up counter at any department store and try different types of make up and find one you like best... I suggest Bare Minerals.
I personally use a powder. Not many powders work but the one I choose works like magic. It is BareEssentials. A BareEssentials representative will match your skin tone. It works great!
Especially since you said you don't normally use foundation, I'd suggest a tinted moisturizer like Stila's -- http://www.stilacosmetics.com/shop/produ鈥?/a>
I have fair skin, occasional breakouts, and a slightly oily t-zone and the tinted moisturizer evens out my skin perfectly without feeling like there's anything on (or anything to sweat off!) I also sometimes use an all over face lustre like the ones from Fresh (http://www.sephora.com/browse/product.jh鈥?/a> which mattes out any possible oil and also gives that ';dewy glow'; type finish because of the slight shimmer in the powder.
Even with both layers, I never feel ';made up'; and I just use some natural color eyeshadows, mascara, and lip gloss to finish it off.
oh man... i have used sooooooooooo many foundations in my life... wow... the best ive found and continue to use is LORAC... the texture is very soft, its like a powder but not really... its oil free, i would kno bc my skin is oily, and its very light but gives u the perfect sheer coverage... go to ur nearest sephora and find ur perfect color...ur gonna loveeee it... actually u can return products at sephora if ur not happy... y not try it...its a bit pricey but def worth ittt....i do makeup for clients alll the time and i love this product oh and if its for ur wedding, u might want to wear concealer also... dont wear a heavy foundation bc it will become oily and u will feel uncomfortable during the event
Use a wet/dry finish foundation and powder in one offers three application choices. Sponge on dry for a natural look. Sponge on damp for maximum coverage. Use throughout the day as a powder. For oily and combination skin. Oil-free.

The best mineral foundation make up?
bare escentuals, bare minerals, everyday minerals, prestige skin loving minerals etc too many options....... can somebody tell me which mineral foundation is simply the best? thanks!The best mineral foundation make up?
Really depends on your skin. I can't use anything with bismuth oxychloride in it. Makes me itch like crazy! Bismuth is in Avon's (along with about 20+ chemicals), Bare Minerals, Sheer Cover, Arbonnes, Loreals...and soooo many more.
I just tried a buncha samples from companies that DON';T use bismuth and I found I liked LA Minerals the best.
But...you should try samples of some of the brands and see what you like best. If you can't get samples on the site, (without that dang trial period where you send it back or they charge you out the butt) look on ebay.
I know you can get samples from LA Minerals for like $1 in a baggie or $2 in a jar and they ship them free.
The best mineral foundation make up?
Different types of mineral foundation make will suit different types of skin. So it really depends what you are looking for in a foundation. I have recently started using kyriandkimi natural foundation. It is a liquid type and i have found it to give a natural coverage. The website even told me how to apply it correctly to gain maximum benefit from the foundation. I also use their powder which is also made from minerals.
I've heard that bare escentuals is the best but really you should go and try them out for yourself. Go into a cosmetic store like Sephora and have them apply it for you and then buy like a gloss or something (it's good to buy something after a make over) and repeat this process another day with a different brand of mineral make up so that you can choose what's best for you.
Bareescentuals- Made with pure, crushed minerals from the earth, bareMinerals SPF 15 Foundation looks like a powder, feels like a cream and buffs on like silk, giving skin a natural luminosity. Free of preservatives, talc, oil, waxes, fragrances, and other chemicals that can irritate skin and cause breakouts, its ideal for all skin types and conditions, from sensitive skins to acne and rosacea. weightless, silky minerals give you flawless coverage with the amazing look and sensation of radiant bare skin. Plus, it provides natural SPF 15 broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. What's not to love?
There is not a lot to choose between them. I have used several brands. Bare escentuals is way over priced. The actual contents of that container are worth about a dollar. Apart from that I cannot stand that Lesley Blodgett (The CEO of Bare escentuals) she is very annoying. I currently use the Avon one and find it to be as good as the BE and much cheaper.
I'm extremely happy with my mineral powder foundation from Mary Kay because it feels super light and it does an awesome job at evening out my skin tone, its easy to apply too. It's only $28 and they offer free shipping.
http://www.marykay.com/bvelazquez/color/鈥?/a>
Signature Minerals makeup is VERY good. There is no bismuth in it. But, Its only sold online. Its not expensive %26amp; they actually have ';free'; nice size samples. The samples are free, but you have to pay postage to be mailed to you.
My first order I went ahead %26amp; ordered foundation %26amp; blush %26amp; eyeshadow %26amp; the samples were sent free with the order. Its at signature.com.
My other favorite minerals makeup is Physicians Formula. I like everything about their minerals ~ except I bought a soft applicator brush from Sonia Kashuk. My younger sisters all use it %26amp; for us its simply the best. ((*.*))

Does anyone know of a silicone based make-up/foundation?
I always hear Carmindie talk about this kind of make-up on ';What Not to Wear';. Does anyone know if it's good for acne prone skin?
Thanks~Does anyone know of a silicone based make-up/foundation?
I know of silicone-based primers, like the ones by Laura Mercier and Mac - when used beneath foundation, these primers help give a flawless look to the skin. However, I would suggest using these only on very special occasions. Used on a daily basis, the silicone will eventually clog your pores and exacerbate your acne.
Hope that helps!Does anyone know of a silicone based make-up/foundation?
so sorry but i have never heard about it. for acne prone skin, the best thing to do is go to a doctor. U dont wanna try every single brand in stores ( i did it ) and it only makes it worse!
remember to clean ur face before going to bed and wear sun screen.
good luck

How often do you run out of foundation make up?
probably about 6-8 months.. The trick is using a foundation brush. Using your fingers or sponges absorbs half the product, making you have to buy more.. Trust me, the brush makes it go a long way. and it gives you more of an airbrushed look. hope that helps!How often do you run out of foundation make up?
not very often cuz i don't use it every dayHow often do you run out of foundation make up?
About 6 months. I don't really use foundation every day though, and a lot of times I don't always use the same one. So sometimes it lasts longer.
I buy it maybe every three months, because I don't use it often. If I look a little splotchy one day, I'll put it on. Or for a special occasion.
about three months
NEVER!!
I think I still have every foundation I've ever used.
weird huh? I barely use it every day but I mostly do.

i suffer from bad eczema and have done since i was 2 year old when skin is open and weeping don't use anything except you cream but i use precious make up or the new max factor look 5 years younger and have no pr-obs with it precious make-up is hyper allergenic but it is not available in shops you need to order it from Ellison's the beauty specialist or find a salon that sells it i sell it so if you want to get in contact with my company see the link below.

don't use make up myself, but have you tried Body Shop products?
mineral makeup WITHOUT bismuth oxychloride (i.e. NOT bare minerals!
www.aubreynicole.com is what i use... though it sounds like your eczema might be more severe than mine
i don't think it's a good idea to cover up eczema, anything will probably make it worse, no matter how gentle.
but if you're really intent on wearing foundation, try clinique, it's not cheap but it's the best from problem/sensitive skin.
I would say don't put anything on it because most make up / foundation will irritate it I would have thought.

Trying to find my own foundation make up?
im trying to find a good foundation that matches up with my skin
only problem im having is my skin has abit more red to it then brown
should I get custom made foundation? for my skin?
I've looked, at wall mart,wall greens and... I've yet to try some from queen latifa's line that actually matches...%26gt;:(Trying to find my own foundation make up?
well if you want drugstore foundation, then you have no choice but to choose it yourself and make it match your skin tone exactly. its kinda hard to see if something matches your skin or not, so go with a friend who can tell you what foundation matches you skin. i think the best drugstore foundation is CoverGirl (Maybelline tends to get really cakey)
if you;re willing to spend more than $15 on your foundation, go to Macy's or Sephora. they have brands such as MAC and Clinique with ladies at each counter who will help you select the products you need and then put it on you to make sure its the perfect match. personally, my favorite brand is Clinique (costs $19) because its cheaper than MAC, lasts more than a year, lasts all day, and gives you a natural, healthy, fresh look

What are the two basic fundamental facts that make up the foundation of economics?
The two fundamental facts that economics is based on are:
1. Individuals always act to maximise their utility (make themselves better off although not necessarily financially).
2. Firms always act to maximise profits.What are the two basic fundamental facts that make up the foundation of economics?
One of the areas in which disagreement among Austrian economists may seem to be nonexistent is that of methodology. Yet I shall attempt to point out that even with respect to method there are differences of opinion among individual thinkers. Some light may be cast on these differences by drawing attention to two distinct strands of thought that run through the writings of Austrian economists on the question of method. By separating these strands and then focusing on each in turn, we may discover and define different perspectives on economic method and perhaps more clearly understand how these different perspectives grow out of the unique view of method shared by all Austrian economists.
2.2.1
The general outline of the Austrian position on methodology is well known. Austrian economists are subjectivists; they emphasize the purposefulness of human action; they are unhappy with constructions that emphasize equilibrium to the exclusion of market processes; they are deeply suspicious of attempts to apply measurement procedures to economics; they are skeptical of empirical ';proofs'; of economic theorems and consequently have serious reservations about the validity and importance of a good deal of the empirical work being carried on in the economics profession today. These are the general features of the position that we know very well; yet within this general view we can distinguish two independent strands of argument. It is upon this debate that I should like to focus my attention in this paper.
2.2.2
TWO TASKS FOR ECONOMIC EXPLANATIONS
It will be helpful to cite two statements鈥攂y prominent Austrian economists鈥攁bout what economics as a discipline is supposed to achieve. The first is by Friedrich A. Hayek, and the other is by Ludwig M. Lachmann. Hayek in his Counter-revolution of Science contended that the function of social science, and by implication economics, is to explain how conscious, purposeful human action can generate unintended consequences through social interaction.*39 The emphasis here is on the unintended consequences of individual human decisions. To explain phenomena that are not the unintended consequences of human decision making is outside the scope of the social sciences in general and economics in particular. Hayek's position was cited by Alexander Gerschenkron in his contribution to the Akerman Festschrift, and I think Gerschenkron was perceptive in focusing on exactly what is, in Hayek's view, the fundamental task of economic explanation.*40
2.2.3
Let us contrast the Hayek view with one expressed by Lachmann. Lachmann's position on the purpose of economic explanations is dealt with at length in his contribution to the Hayek Festschrift, Roads to Freedom.*41 Here, however, I shall quote from a more recent statement of his position that appeared in his review of John R. Hicks's Capital and Time:
Economics has two tasks. The first is to make the world around us intelligible in terms of human action and the pursuit of plans. The second is to trace the unintended consequences of such action. Ricardian economics emphasized the second task, the ';subjective revolution'; of the 1870s stressed the urgency of the first, and the Austrian school has always cherished this tradition.*42
Thus, we have here two tasks for economics. Besides the task that Hayek emphasized鈥攖he tracing out of the unintended consequences of action鈥攚e have the requirement that it make the world around us intelligible in terms of human action.
2.2.4
It is worth reminding ourselves that the two tasks Lachmann identified are to be found in Carl Menger's writings. In the third part of his 1884 book on methodology Menger pointed out that actions do have unintended consequences, and he made it very clear, as Hayek had done, that economics is the science that is able to explain how these unintended consequences emerge in the market place.*43 But Menger was also aware of the other task Lachmann emphasized. In a letter Menger wrote L茅on Walras, cited by T. W. Hutchison in several of his writings,*44 Menger insisted that the economist is not merely after the relationships between quantities, but the essence of economic phenomena: ';the essence of value, the essence of land rent, the essence of entrepreneurs' profits, the essence of the division of labor.';*45 This view is what Kauder meant when he described Menger as holding that economics deals with social essences,*46 and what Hutchison called ';methodological essentialism.';*47
2.2.5
TWO BASIC AUSTRIAN TENETS
I have asserted that two distinct strands of thought may be identified in the writings of Austrian economists with regard to the meaning and purpose of economic explanation. I would now like to distinguish two distinct insights about the economic world that receive varying emphasis and are not often adequately differentiated. First, there is the insight that human action is purposeful, and, second, there is the insight that there is an indeterminacy and unpredictability inherent in human preferences, human expectations, and human knowledge. Now these two insights are really quite distinct, because one does not encompass the other in any logical or epistemological sense. That human action is purposeful is an insight by itself, and that human knowledge and expectations are largely unpredictable is another. Nor is the truth of these two propositions equally obvious. The purposefulness of human action is something we arrive at by introspection. In this sense it is ';obviously'; true. On the other hand, the insight that men's preferences are inherently unpredictable鈥攖hat we cannot discover consistent patterns in what men prefer and that we cannot postulate that there are consistent patterns in what men know and expect to happen鈥攃annot be arrived at by introspection. The truth claimed for this last insight depends on our observations of our fellow men; that we do as a matter of fact find them to be unpredictable in their actions and expectations about future states of the world.
2.2.6
To me, the different emphasis Austrian economists attach to these basic insights is largely responsible for their different attitudes regarding the purpose of economic explanation. The recognition of purposefulness is, of course, fundamental to our definition of economics as the logic of choice. We are able to use our logic to simulate the actions of other human beings only because we share the logic that other men's purposes lead them to harness in their own interests. The recognition of purposefulness is essential to our positive conception of economics as the logic of choice and to our enterprise of studying the consequences of purposeful action. But if we consider those aspects of the Austrian approach that are used, not to derive economic laws, but to criticize other areas of contemporary economic thought, then the second of these basic tenets comes into prominence. Our dissatisfaction with empirical work and our suspicion of measurement rest on the conviction that empirical observations of past human choices will not yield any regularities or any consistent pattern that may be safely extrapolated beyond the existing data at hand to yield scientific theorems of universal applicability.
2.2.7
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF PURPOSEFULNESS
Let us try to understand the role these basic tenets of Austrian economics play in the Lachmann-Hayek discussions concerning what economic explanation is all about. In 1938 T. W. Hutchison published The Significance and Basic Postulates of Economic Theory.*48 The book received a blistering Austrian-like critique from the pen of Frank H. Knight, who was on most other issues, such as capital theory, not in sympathy with the Austrian school. In that article Knight conveyed some brilliant insights about the relationship of economics to the study of human action. Knight noted that ';the whole subject of conduct鈥攊nterests and motivation鈥攃onstitutes a different realm of reality from the external world.'; In addition to the external world, with which the natural sciences are conversant, there is a different realm of reality, a realm no less real than the external world, but nevertheless different from it. This other realm is that of human conduct, which Knight identified as interests, motivation, and purpose.
The first fact to be recorded is that this realm of reality exists or ';is there.'; This fact cannot be proved or argued or ';tested.'; If anyone denies that men have interests or that ';we'; have a considerable amount of valid knowledge about them, economics and all its works will simply be to such a person what the world of color is to the blind man. But there would still be one difference: a man who is physically, ocularly blind may still be rated of normal intelligence and in his right mind.*49
Here, surely, we have the first of the basic tenets of Austrian theory, that there is a realm of reality constituted of human motives, interests, and purposes, and that, although purposes cannot be seen or touched, they are nonetheless ';there.';
2.2.8
When Lachmann called upon economists to make the world intelligible in terms of human decisions and purposes, I take it that he was telling us the following: It is the task of science to describe and explain reality. If reality consists of more than the external world, then a science that is confined to the facts of the external world is simply incomplete. It does not account for everything that is there. The Austrian approach insists that there is something besides the facts of the external world and the relationships that may be postulated between these bare facts. What is that something else? It is the realm of reality that Knight pointed to, the realm of purposes. And even if one were able to explain the facts of the external world in terms of similar facts, without regard to the human purposes underlying these facts, one would not have explained everything there is to be explained, not have set forth everything there is to set forth. One would have failed to make the world intelligible in terms of human action, that is, in terms of human purposes. Thus, even if the second Austrian tenet (that there are no constants in human behavior) were false, even if one were able to postulate consistent chains of cause and effect that depend only on externally observable phenomena, still one has failed to fulfill one's scientific obligation. There is a realm of reality called purposes. It is there, and if we fail to point it out, then we fail in the task of making the world intelligible in terms of human action.
--------------------------------------鈥?br>
2.2.9
Let us consider a simple example. Suppose a man from Mars is doing research for his doctorate and, after focusing his telescope on a particular location on Earth, discovers a certain regularity. Through his telescope he observes a set of boxes lined up in a row. He further discovers that a smaller box moves past these boxes every day at 7:30 A.M., comes to a stop at one of the boxes, and then, after a short stay, moves on. Moreover the investigator discovers something else; out of one of these boxes a body emerges every morning, and when the moving box makes its daily stop, the body is swallowed up by the moving box. Discovering this regularity, the researcher postulates a definite law, the law of moving boxes and bodies. As he goes on with the research, however, he discovers that sometimes the box moves away before the body has entered it, leaving the body behind altogether; while sometimes the body moves at an unusually rapid speed, arriving at the daily moving-box stop just in time to be swallowed up before the box moves on. Now this Martian researcher may be able to predict just when the person is going to miss the box and when he is going to catch it. He may even be able to explain the movements of the body and the box entirely without reference to the fact that someone is trying to catch the bus because he wants to get to work on time. But if he does so, he has not told us everything there is to be learned about this situation. A theory of moving bodies and boxes that does not draw attention to the dimension of purpose gives a truncated picture of the real world. This is what economics, in the Austrian view, is all about. Economics has to make the world intelligible in terms of human motives. It is more than simply moving boxes or changing economic quantities. This is the task to which Lachmann drew our attention when he insisted that we must make the world intelligible in terms of human purpose.
2.2.10
A memorable passage in Hayek's Counter-revolution is the one in which he explained that objects useful to human beings are simply not objective facts.
In fact most of the objects of social or human action are not ';objective facts'; in the special narrow sense in which this term is used by the [natural] Sciences...they cannot be defined in physical terms.... Take the concept of a ';tool'; or ';instrument,'; or of any particular tool such as a hammer or a barometer. It is easily seen that these concepts cannot be interpreted to refer to ';objective facts,'; i.e. to things irrespective of what people think about them.*50
Pursuing this point Hayek asserted (in a footnote reference to the work of Ludwig von Mises) that every important advance in economic theory in the preceding century had been a result of the consistent application of subjectivism.*51 Lachmann's advice to economists paralleled Hayek's. According to Hayek, when we deal with artifacts鈥攚ith tools and instruments or other products of human beings鈥攚e have not exhausted the description of what it is that we are describing if we stubbornly confine ourselves to their physical entities. We have not described a hammer until we have drawn attention to its purpose. Lachmann, similarly, instructed us that when we deal with broader questions, with institutions and regularities in economic affairs, we have not completed our task if we have not called attention to the purposes and motives and interests that underlie these phenomena. A hammer is more than a handle with a metal head; so is a price more than a number, milk consumption more than a number of gallons, and its relationship to price more than a simple functional relationship. A whole world of interests and motives is ';there,'; is real, and it is surely our responsibility as scientists to make it clear.
2.2.11
Critics of Austrian methodology often argue that since praxeology deals with unobservables, it is inherently incapable of telling us anything scientific about observables. The latest (and perhaps the clearest and most sympathetic) statement of this argument was by James Buchanan, in his contribution to the Hayek Festschrift,*52 when he drew attention to the distinction between (1) the logic of choice (what he called the abstract science of economic behavior) and (2) the predictive science of human behavior. Buchanan argued that if we treat economics as the logic of choice, it cannot in principle lead to refutable hypotheses because no particular preference ordering has been specified, and to that extent it cannot tell us anything about the real world.
2.2.12
In answer to Buchanan, our discussion indicates that the truth is the other way around. We are not only able to say something about the real world; we are also able to say a great deal about a large and important area of human experience about which other disciplines are necessarily silent鈥攖he realm of purpose. This needs to be stated and restated, emphasized and reemphasized, again and again! The real world is more than the external world; the real world includes a whole range of matters beyond the scope of the measuring instruments of the econometrician. Economic science must be able to encompass this realm.
2.2.13
It is helpful in pursuing this strand of thought in Austrian methodology to constrast the Austrian use of purpose with the rationality hypothesis often employed by economists. For many non-Austrian economists this hypothesis is invoked with apologies and is considered something of a necessary evil. It is used to get theoretical results and is justified on the grounds that these results seem to fit the facts of the outside world although the hypothesis is philosophically suspect. Thus we find Gary Becker eager to demonstrate how certain fundamental theorems of economics do not require the rationality hypothesis鈥攖hat rather embarrassing piece of excess baggage.*53 For Austrian economists, on the other hand, the notion of purposefulness is not merely a useful tool to obtain results but an essential element of economic reality that cannot be omitted. Making reference to human plans and motivations is an essential part of the economist's scientific task.
2.2.14
THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF KNOWLEDGE: A DILEMMA
Let us turn to the second basic tenet of Austrian methodology, the proposition that there is an inherent unpredictability and indeterminacy with regard to human preferences, expectations, and knowledge. I have already pointed out that this proposition does not have the same introspectively obvious ring of truth that the idea of human purposefulness does. Are we really so certain that human wants and human preference-orderings and the manner in which they undergo modification are inherently unpredictable? In fact, I wish to suggest that asserting this creates something of a dilemma for the Austrian economist.
2.2.15
There is a passage in an essay by Hayek that deals with this very question. In that essay Hayek discussed the concept of equilibrium and raised the problem of whether or not there is a tendency toward equilibrium in the economic world. Hayek remarked:
It is clear that, if we want to make the assertion that, under certain conditions, people will approach that state, we must explain by what process they will acquire the necessary knowledge. Of course, any assumption about the actual acquisition of knowledge in the course of this process will also be of a hypothetical character. But this does not mean that all such assumptions are equally justified. We have to deal here with assumptions about causation, so that what we assume must not only be regarded as possible...but must also be regarded as likely to be true; and it must be possible, at least in principle, to demonstrate that it is true in particular cases. The significant point here is that it is these apparently subsidiary hypotheses or assumptions that people do learn from experience, and about how they acquire knowledge, which constitute the empirical content of our propositions about what happens in the real world.*54
2.2.16
Hayek, then, asserted that when postulating a tendency toward equilibrium, we do have to resort to a particular empirical proposition. Moreover, the empirical proposition in question would seem to contradict the other idea that there are an inherent unpredictability and an indeterminacy about human preferences and human knowledge. If we are to be able to say anything about the process of equilibration, especially if we are to say something about the course by which human decisions lead to unintended consequences, we shall have to rely upon the particular empirical proposition that men learn from market experience in a systematic manner. This is inconsistent with the second tenet underlying Austrian economics that there is an inherent indeterminacy in the way by which human knowledge changes.
2.2.17
Hayek's argument is straightforward. In disequilibrium man's knowledge is imperfect, some people are making mistakes; equilibrium is the situation in which nobody is making mistakes. A movement from disequilibrium to equilibrium must therefore be one in which men gradually learn to avoid mistakes, so that their actions become more and more coordinated. Where do we derive our confidence that this type of learning in fact takes place? Hayek stated very clearly that this is an empirical hypothesis. If we reject this hypothesis, then we reject the basis for viewing the market process as an equilibrating mechanism鈥攖hat is, reject the claim that economics can tell us anything definite about the unintended market consequences of human actions. We may still be able to make the world intelligible鈥攖hat is, we may explain that what happens happens because human beings pursue their purposes. We can assert that their interacting decisions generate certain changes in knowledge, but we shall no longer be able to say in which particular directions knowledge changes, and we can no longer postulate a determinate process toward equilibrium. We shall, to put the matter succinctly, not be able to go beyond the first Lachmann task in order to pursue the program advanced by Hayek. If, however, we confine ourselves to the enormously important task of making the world intelligible in terms of human purposes, we need not accept Hayek's empirical proposition about the coordination of plans and the progressive elimination of mistakes. But if we are to explain the unintended consequences of human action, that is, if we are to assert that there is a tendency for entrepreneurial profits to be eliminated, or for prices to move in one direction rather than another, we must be able to say something about the manner in which human knowledge and human expectations undergo modification. If one accepts this particular empirical hypothesis, one has surely weakened, perhaps irreparably, the second basic tenet underlying Austrian methodology.
2.2.18
CONCLUSION
We have identified two requirements of economic explanations that Austrian economists consider important. We have also identified two basic tenets that seem fundamental to Austrian methodology. It turns out, however, that while one of these basic tenets, that of human purposefulness, is sufficient to sustain one of these two requirements (that of making the world intelligible in terms of human action), the second, which asserts the unpredictability of human knowledge, is inconsistent with the requirement that economic explanations trace the unintended consequences of human action. It seems therefore that the future progress of the Austrian school in applying its basic methodological tenets requires some decision about the extent to which the second tenet about the inconstancy of human purposes and knowledge can be upheld as a general proposition.What are the two basic fundamental facts that make up the foundation of economics?
Supply and Demand. That's it. Vote me best please because I came up with it first.
IT SUPPLY AND DEMAND!
1. there is limited resources
2. human has unlimited demand
1. Individuals always act to maximise their utility (make themselves better off although not necessarily financially).
2. Firms always act to maximise profits.What are the two basic fundamental facts that make up the foundation of economics?
One of the areas in which disagreement among Austrian economists may seem to be nonexistent is that of methodology. Yet I shall attempt to point out that even with respect to method there are differences of opinion among individual thinkers. Some light may be cast on these differences by drawing attention to two distinct strands of thought that run through the writings of Austrian economists on the question of method. By separating these strands and then focusing on each in turn, we may discover and define different perspectives on economic method and perhaps more clearly understand how these different perspectives grow out of the unique view of method shared by all Austrian economists.
2.2.1
The general outline of the Austrian position on methodology is well known. Austrian economists are subjectivists; they emphasize the purposefulness of human action; they are unhappy with constructions that emphasize equilibrium to the exclusion of market processes; they are deeply suspicious of attempts to apply measurement procedures to economics; they are skeptical of empirical ';proofs'; of economic theorems and consequently have serious reservations about the validity and importance of a good deal of the empirical work being carried on in the economics profession today. These are the general features of the position that we know very well; yet within this general view we can distinguish two independent strands of argument. It is upon this debate that I should like to focus my attention in this paper.
2.2.2
TWO TASKS FOR ECONOMIC EXPLANATIONS
It will be helpful to cite two statements鈥攂y prominent Austrian economists鈥攁bout what economics as a discipline is supposed to achieve. The first is by Friedrich A. Hayek, and the other is by Ludwig M. Lachmann. Hayek in his Counter-revolution of Science contended that the function of social science, and by implication economics, is to explain how conscious, purposeful human action can generate unintended consequences through social interaction.*39 The emphasis here is on the unintended consequences of individual human decisions. To explain phenomena that are not the unintended consequences of human decision making is outside the scope of the social sciences in general and economics in particular. Hayek's position was cited by Alexander Gerschenkron in his contribution to the Akerman Festschrift, and I think Gerschenkron was perceptive in focusing on exactly what is, in Hayek's view, the fundamental task of economic explanation.*40
2.2.3
Let us contrast the Hayek view with one expressed by Lachmann. Lachmann's position on the purpose of economic explanations is dealt with at length in his contribution to the Hayek Festschrift, Roads to Freedom.*41 Here, however, I shall quote from a more recent statement of his position that appeared in his review of John R. Hicks's Capital and Time:
Economics has two tasks. The first is to make the world around us intelligible in terms of human action and the pursuit of plans. The second is to trace the unintended consequences of such action. Ricardian economics emphasized the second task, the ';subjective revolution'; of the 1870s stressed the urgency of the first, and the Austrian school has always cherished this tradition.*42
Thus, we have here two tasks for economics. Besides the task that Hayek emphasized鈥攖he tracing out of the unintended consequences of action鈥攚e have the requirement that it make the world around us intelligible in terms of human action.
2.2.4
It is worth reminding ourselves that the two tasks Lachmann identified are to be found in Carl Menger's writings. In the third part of his 1884 book on methodology Menger pointed out that actions do have unintended consequences, and he made it very clear, as Hayek had done, that economics is the science that is able to explain how these unintended consequences emerge in the market place.*43 But Menger was also aware of the other task Lachmann emphasized.

Hutchison in several of his writings,*44 Menger insisted that the economist is not merely after the relationships between quantities, but the essence of economic phenomena: ';the essence of value, the essence of land rent, the essence of entrepreneurs' profits, the essence of the division of labor.';*45 This view is what Kauder meant when he described Menger as holding that economics deals with social essences,*46 and what Hutchison called ';methodological essentialism.';*47
2.2.5
TWO BASIC AUSTRIAN TENETS
I have asserted that two distinct strands of thought may be identified in the writings of Austrian economists with regard to the meaning and purpose of economic explanation. I would now like to distinguish two distinct insights about the economic world that receive varying emphasis and are not often adequately differentiated. First, there is the insight that human action is purposeful, and, second, there is the insight that there is an indeterminacy and unpredictability inherent in human preferences, human expectations, and human knowledge. Now these two insights are really quite distinct, because one does not encompass the other in any logical or epistemological sense. That human action is purposeful is an insight by itself, and that human knowledge and expectations are largely unpredictable is another. Nor is the truth of these two propositions equally obvious. The purposefulness of human action is something we arrive at by introspection. In this sense it is ';obviously'; true. On the other hand, the insight that men's preferences are inherently unpredictable鈥攖hat we cannot discover consistent patterns in what men prefer and that we cannot postulate that there are consistent patterns in what men know and expect to happen鈥攃annot be arrived at by introspection. The truth claimed for this last insight depends on our observations of our fellow men; that we do as a matter of fact find them to be unpredictable in their actions and expectations about future states of the world.
2.2.6
To me, the different emphasis Austrian economists attach to these basic insights is largely responsible for their different attitudes regarding the purpose of economic explanation. The recognition of purposefulness is, of course, fundamental to our definition of economics as the logic of choice. We are able to use our logic to simulate the actions of other human beings only because we share the logic that other men's purposes lead them to harness in their own interests. The recognition of purposefulness is essential to our positive conception of economics as the logic of choice and to our enterprise of studying the consequences of purposeful action. But if we consider those aspects of the Austrian approach that are used, not to derive economic laws, but to criticize other areas of contemporary economic thought, then the second of these basic tenets comes into prominence. Our dissatisfaction with empirical work and our suspicion of measurement rest on the conviction that empirical observations of past human choices will not yield any regularities or any consistent pattern that may be safely extrapolated beyond the existing data at hand to yield scientific theorems of universal applicability.
2.2.7
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF PURPOSEFULNESS
Let us try to understand the role these basic tenets of Austrian economics play in the Lachmann-Hayek discussions concerning what economic explanation is all about. In 1938 T. W. Hutchison published The Significance and Basic Postulates of Economic Theory.*48 The book received a blistering Austrian-like critique from the pen of Frank H. Knight, who was on most other issues, such as capital theory, not in sympathy with the Austrian school. In that article Knight conveyed some brilliant insights about the relationship of economics to the study of human action. Knight noted that ';the whole subject of conduct鈥攊nterests and motivation鈥攃onstitutes a different realm of reality from the external world.'; In addition to the external world, with which the natural sciences are conversant, there is a different realm of reality, a realm no less real than the external world, but nevertheless different from it. This other realm is that of human conduct, which Knight identified as interests, motivation, and purpose.
The first fact to be recorded is that this realm of reality exists or ';is there.'; This fact cannot be proved or argued or ';tested.'; If anyone denies that men have interests or that ';we'; have a considerable amount of valid knowledge about them, economics and all its works will simply be to such a person what the world of color is to the blind man. But there would still be one difference: a man who is physically, ocularly blind may still be rated of normal intelligence and in his right mind.*49
Here, surely, we have the first of the basic tenets of Austrian theory, that there is a realm of reality constituted of human motives, interests, and purposes, and that, although purposes cannot be seen or touched, they are nonetheless ';there.';
2.2.8
When Lachmann called upon economists to make the world intelligible in terms of human decisions and purposes, I take it that he was telling us the following: It is the task of science to describe and explain reality. If reality consists of more than the external world, then a science that is confined to the facts of the external world is simply incomplete. It does not account for everything that is there. The Austrian approach insists that there is something besides the facts of the external world and the relationships that may be postulated between these bare facts. What is that something else? It is the realm of reality that Knight pointed to, the realm of purposes. And even if one were able to explain the facts of the external world in terms of similar facts, without regard to the human purposes underlying these facts, one would not have explained everything there is to be explained, not have set forth everything there is to set forth. One would have failed to make the world intelligible in terms of human action, that is, in terms of human purposes. Thus, even if the second Austrian tenet (that there are no constants in human behavior) were false, even if one were able to postulate consistent chains of cause and effect that depend only on externally observable phenomena, still one has failed to fulfill one's scientific obligation. There is a realm of reality called purposes. It is there, and if we fail to point it out, then we fail in the task of making the world intelligible in terms of human action.
--------------------------------------鈥?br>
2.2.9
Let us consider a simple example. Suppose a man from Mars is doing research for his doctorate and, after focusing his telescope on a particular location on Earth, discovers a certain regularity. Through his telescope he observes a set of boxes lined up in a row. He further discovers that a smaller box moves past these boxes every day at 7:30 A.M., comes to a stop at one of the boxes, and then, after a short stay, moves on. Moreover the investigator discovers something else; out of one of these boxes a body emerges every morning, and when the moving box makes its daily stop, the body is swallowed up by the moving box. Discovering this regularity, the researcher postulates a definite law, the law of moving boxes and bodies. As he goes on with the research, however, he discovers that sometimes the box moves away before the body has entered it, leaving the body behind altogether; while sometimes the body moves at an unusually rapid speed, arriving at the daily moving-box stop just in time to be swallowed up before the box moves on. Now this Martian researcher may be able to predict just when the person is going to miss the box and when he is going to catch it. He may even be able to explain the movements of the body and the box entirely without reference to the fact that someone is trying to catch the bus because he wants to get to work on time. But if he does so, he has not told us everything there is to be learned about this situation. A theory of moving bodies and boxes that does not draw attention to the dimension of purpose gives a truncated picture of the real world. This is what economics, in the Austrian view, is all about. Economics has to make the world intelligible in terms of human motives. It is more than simply moving boxes or changing economic quantities. This is the task to which Lachmann drew our attention when he insisted that we must make the world intelligible in terms of human purpose.
2.2.10
A memorable passage in Hayek's Counter-revolution is the one in which he explained that objects useful to human beings are simply not objective facts.
In fact most of the objects of social or human action are not ';objective facts'; in the special narrow sense in which this term is used by the [natural] Sciences...they cannot be defined in physical terms.... Take the concept of a ';tool'; or ';instrument,'; or of any particular tool such as a hammer or a barometer. It is easily seen that these concepts cannot be interpreted to refer to ';objective facts,'; i.e. to things irrespective of what people think about them.*50
Pursuing this point Hayek asserted (in a footnote reference to the work of Ludwig von Mises) that every important advance in economic theory in the preceding century had been a result of the consistent application of subjectivism.*51 Lachmann's advice to economists paralleled Hayek's. According to Hayek, when we deal with artifacts鈥攚ith tools and instruments or other products of human beings鈥攚e have not exhausted the description of what it is that we are describing if we stubbornly confine ourselves to their physical entities. We have not described a hammer until we have drawn attention to its purpose. Lachmann, similarly, instructed us that when we deal with broader questions, with institutions and regularities in economic affairs, we have not completed our task if we have not called attention to the purposes and motives and interests that underlie these phenomena. A hammer is more than a handle with a metal head; so is a price more than a number, milk consumption more than a number of gallons, and its relationship to price more than a simple functional relationship. A whole world of interests and motives is ';there,'; is real, and it is surely our responsibility as scientists to make it clear.
2.2.11
Critics of Austrian methodology often argue that since praxeology deals with unobservables, it is inherently incapable of telling us anything scientific about observables. The latest (and perhaps the clearest and most sympathetic) statement of this argument was by James Buchanan, in his contribution to the Hayek Festschrift,*52 when he drew attention to the distinction between (1) the logic of choice (what he called the abstract science of economic behavior) and (2) the predictive science of human behavior. Buchanan argued that if we treat economics as the logic of choice, it cannot in principle lead to refutable hypotheses because no particular preference ordering has been specified, and to that extent it cannot tell us anything about the real world.
2.2.12
In answer to Buchanan, our discussion indicates that the truth is the other way around. We are not only able to say something about the real world; we are also able to say a great deal about a large and important area of human experience about which other disciplines are necessarily silent鈥攖he realm of purpose. This needs to be stated and restated, emphasized and reemphasized, again and again! The real world is more than the external world; the real world includes a whole range of matters beyond the scope of the measuring instruments of the econometrician. Economic science must be able to encompass this realm.
2.2.13
It is helpful in pursuing this strand of thought in Austrian methodology to constrast the Austrian use of purpose with the rationality hypothesis often employed by economists. For many non-Austrian economists this hypothesis is invoked with apologies and is considered something of a necessary evil.

Thus we find Gary Becker eager to demonstrate how certain fundamental theorems of economics do not require the rationality hypothesis鈥攖hat rather embarrassing piece of excess baggage.*53 For Austrian economists, on the other hand, the notion of purposefulness is not merely a useful tool to obtain results but an essential element of economic reality that cannot be omitted. Making reference to human plans and motivations is an essential part of the economist's scientific task.
2.2.14
THE UNPREDICTABILITY OF KNOWLEDGE: A DILEMMA
Let us turn to the second basic tenet of Austrian methodology, the proposition that there is an inherent unpredictability and indeterminacy with regard to human preferences, expectations, and knowledge. I have already pointed out that this proposition does not have the same introspectively obvious ring of truth that the idea of human purposefulness does. Are we really so certain that human wants and human preference-orderings and the manner in which they undergo modification are inherently unpredictable? In fact, I wish to suggest that asserting this creates something of a dilemma for the Austrian economist.
2.2.15
There is a passage in an essay by Hayek that deals with this very question. In that essay Hayek discussed the concept of equilibrium and raised the problem of whether or not there is a tendency toward equilibrium in the economic world. Hayek remarked:
It is clear that, if we want to make the assertion that, under certain conditions, people will approach that state, we must explain by what process they will acquire the necessary knowledge. Of course, any assumption about the actual acquisition of knowledge in the course of this process will also be of a hypothetical character. But this does not mean that all such assumptions are equally justified. We have to deal here with assumptions about causation, so that what we assume must not only be regarded as possible...but must also be regarded as likely to be true; and it must be possible, at least in principle, to demonstrate that it is true in particular cases. The significant point here is that it is these apparently subsidiary hypotheses or assumptions that people do learn from experience, and about how they acquire knowledge, which constitute the empirical content of our propositions about what happens in the real world.*54
2.2.16
Hayek, then, asserted that when postulating a tendency toward equilibrium, we do have to resort to a particular empirical proposition. Moreover, the empirical proposition in question would seem to contradict the other idea that there are an inherent unpredictability and an indeterminacy about human preferences and human knowledge. If we are to be able to say anything about the process of equilibration, especially if we are to say something about the course by which human decisions lead to unintended consequences, we shall have to rely upon the particular empirical proposition that men learn from market experience in a systematic manner. This is inconsistent with the second tenet underlying Austrian economics that there is an inherent indeterminacy in the way by which human knowledge changes.
2.2.17
Hayek's argument is straightforward. In disequilibrium man's knowledge is imperfect, some people are making mistakes; equilibrium is the situation in which nobody is making mistakes. A movement from disequilibrium to equilibrium must therefore be one in which men gradually learn to avoid mistakes, so that their actions become more and more coordinated. Where do we derive our confidence that this type of learning in fact takes place? Hayek stated very clearly that this is an empirical hypothesis. If we reject this hypothesis, then we reject the basis for viewing the market process as an equilibrating mechanism鈥攖hat is, reject the claim that economics can tell us anything definite about the unintended market consequences of human actions. We may still be able to make the world intelligible鈥攖hat is, we may explain that what happens happens because human beings pursue their purposes. We can assert that their interacting decisions generate certain changes in knowledge, but we shall no longer be able to say in which particular directions knowledge changes, and we can no longer postulate a determinate process toward equilibrium. We shall, to put the matter succinctly, not be able to go beyond the first Lachmann task in order to pursue the program advanced by Hayek. If, however, we confine ourselves to the enormously important task of making the world intelligible in terms of human purposes, we need not accept Hayek's empirical proposition about the coordination of plans and the progressive elimination of mistakes. But if we are to explain the unintended consequences of human action, that is, if we are to assert that there is a tendency for entrepreneurial profits to be eliminated, or for prices to move in one direction rather than another, we must be able to say something about the manner in which human knowledge and human expectations undergo modification. If one accepts this particular empirical hypothesis, one has surely weakened, perhaps irreparably, the second basic tenet underlying Austrian methodology.
2.2.18
CONCLUSION
We have identified two requirements of economic explanations that Austrian economists consider important. We have also identified two basic tenets that seem fundamental to Austrian methodology. It turns out, however, that while one of these basic tenets, that of human purposefulness, is sufficient to sustain one of these two requirements (that of making the world intelligible in terms of human action), the second, which asserts the unpredictability of human knowledge, is inconsistent with the requirement that economic explanations trace the unintended consequences of human action. It seems therefore that the future progress of the Austrian school in applying its basic methodological tenets requires some decision about the extent to which the second tenet about the inconstancy of human purposes and knowledge can be upheld as a general proposition.What are the two basic fundamental facts that make up the foundation of economics?
Supply and Demand. That's it. Vote me best please because I came up with it first.
IT SUPPLY AND DEMAND!
1. there is limited resources
2. human has unlimited demand
What is your opinion of the foundation make-up La Mer?

Makeup Forever and Dermablend-Where can you get waterproof foundation (make up)?
Bare minerals!!! This foundation is heaven sent. You can buy it off the web, the t.v., or go to a store. I can go swimming and it still doesnt come off. It can get a little pricey though. I paid $60 plus tax for a start up kit. And it lasts about 6-9 months. But you also get all of the brushes.Where can you get waterproof foundation (make up)?
I *think* Makeup Forever has a waterproof foundation but I am not 100% positive. their products can be found at Sephora.

I have tried their Face and Body Foundation, Duo Mat Powder Foundation and Mat Velvet + Matifying Foundation . They are excellent foundations but for different reasons. Face and body is more for a light-medium coverage and imparts a satin finish. Duo Mat Powder Foundation is good if you are looking for a matte powder foundation.The Mat Velvet + Matifying Foundation is for medium-heavy coverage with a matte finish. I found both of them went on smoothly and lasted all day with a little bit of powder touch up.
My all time favorite in this line is their Full Cover Concealer. A little goes a long way and it does a good job of coving up blemishes.nyx cosmetic

Which type of sunblock or sunscreen can I use of my face before applying make-up foundation?
An oil free one. I use neutrogena oil free spf 30. You may also try using an oil free moisturizer with sunscreen like aveeno. Make sure you wait about 2-5 min before applying your makeup to make sure that all the sunscreen is absorbed by your skin. A foundation with an SPF isnt a bad idea to add as well. MAC, loreal HIP, and revlon are a few manufactures that make an oil free liquid with SPF.Which type of sunblock or sunscreen can I use of my face before applying make-up foundation?

What is foundation (make-up) ?
I have pressed powder but is that foundation - and whats that liquid foundation and matte mousse foundation?
I no i sound dumb but Im confused. After the foundation, goes blusher but where does bronzer fit in ?
Lol please help ! ! !
Ty xxxxxWhat is foundation (make-up) ?
Liquid Foundation is just a thicker foundation that isn't made of powder, matte mousse foundation is kind of like liquid foundation, except it looks like mousse or whipped cream. And bronzer goes after foundation, then it's blush.
-SicilyWhat is foundation (make-up) ?
Foundation is a god-send :)
foundation is a make up type which you put on your skin, which covers spots, freckles, anything really, but some of the time it makes your skin look orange, and if you don't rub it in round the edges, it makes you look orange, and you can tell you have foundation on. My personal opinion is don't wear it unless you need it, or if you do wear it, don't wear too much, it makes you look tacky.
Good Luck
its the foundatiuon on which alll is built
the best fondation is m.a.c studio fix.
or airbrush fondation works wonders
but i use
bare minerals
its not GREAT coverage
but its just enough and it makes so it doesnt look like ur wearing makeup. it just covers up all the flaws.
==__always buy 1 shade of bare minerals darker than ur skin tone theyy r pricey and dont come with alot.. so insted of cakeing it on just buy a shade darker..+-)_0_
i have pressed power that i use as foudation
but some peope use both liquid and powder
and i use bronzer instead of blusher lol
xo
Bronzer would go on after the foundation, before the blusher.
Foundation is makeup that covers spots, freckles, etc. But to achieve perfect skin, you shouldn't use this. It can cause even more spots and is bad for the skin. Bronzer is what gives you a tanned look.
By the way, you don't sound dumb at all as I didn't know what foundation was last year!
i think foundation is just to even your skin tone, cover blotches, spots, e.t.c. Whereas bronzer is used after foundation to just, well basically give you a tanned look. I'm not sure whether you where blusher and bronzer together lol. That would be alot if you did.
Foundation is the first basic makeup you put on, usually liquid, or mouse, or semi-liquid. Then pressed powder.
But if your young you only need the powder, especially if you still go to school. Putting on foundation and powder will make you look too made up, too fake.
Blusher goes on last. Bronzer you can use instead of blusher, use it on your cheeks, chin, nose rim and forehead to make yourself look sun-kissed. (less is more here, remember? you don't want to look like you fell into the tub of bronzer)

Who makes the best airbrush make-up foundation?
the best airbrush foundation would have to be SK-II Air Touch foundation =]
it hasn't come out yet, but i can't wait until it does!
the people who made it thought up everything possible... the airbrush is charged negatively, so when the foundation comes out, it has a negative charge, which is attracted to our skin [skin has a positive charge].. our hair also has a negative charge, so when you spray it on your skin, it won't stick to your hair, but instead will settle on the skin under it.. they also made it so that the particles won't stack up on each other and create a chunky layer, but instead will settle in one uniform layer.
sounds cool, doesn't it?? =]Who makes the best airbrush make-up foundation?
For more bang for your buck go with Sally Hansen.They were one of the first to introduce it. It is light weight but the coverage is amazing and long lasting. It gives you a naturally healthy looking skin. Check out Walgreen's for Sally Hansen airbrush face makeup. They usually always have a good deal there and you can shop on-line!Who makes the best airbrush make-up foundation?
MAC's. It's a new foundation but to apply it smoothly, use a foundation brush.
There are a few really great airbrush make-up foundations out there:
The least expensive, being Sally Hansen - is a very good full coverage foundation.Just be light-handed...the applicator tends to send too much make up to the face at once. It can be found at any drugstore.
On the more expensive end of the spectrum
ModelCo (Which can be found on sephora.com)
Or Clinique airbrush concealer pen (Also sephora.com)
There are also many make-ups that are powder based that give an airbrushed look:
GLO
Bare Minerals
Philosophy
...just remember when wearing the airbrush foundation (or any other kind of make-up) your skin should be moisturized! If not, the make-up can pick up the dry skin spots...and that is not what you want!

How do i clean an expensive foundation make up brush?
Most foundation brushes, expensive or not, are all generally made from synthetic fibers, generally nylon. They are made with synthetic hairs to create flawless strokes and so that your foundation doesnt go into the hairs, as natural hair would do. It also helps to prevent any bacteria from growing on the brush since natural hairs hold onto germs and the oils on your skin.
Wanting to wash your brush is great as I've had many people come in with brushes to return them because they ';stop working.'; Gross!!!
Onto the question, all you need to clean your foundation brush is a little shampoo or even dish soap!! Either of these work because they are made to remove build up and oil. Do NOT use dish soap on your blush or powder brushes though, because they are probably made from sable! You can thouroughly wash them this way and lay FLAT to dry. Do not put them back in your case because the water can get into where the glue holds the brush together and destroy it.
I read a couple previous answers and hot water will not work. At all so don't bother. MAC brush cleaner works, but why spend the money if you can use whats already in your home?
Hope This helped!!!How do i clean an expensive foundation make up brush?
Ohk, get a mild soap, or shampoo. I use some generic brand baby shampoo. First, hold your brush with the bristles down and the handle up and run it under warm, not hot water. Then, squirt about a dime sized dollop of your soap in your palm and gently rub the brush in it. You can sort of squeeze the brush to remove the makeup. Just be gentle so you don't break hairs off. Rinse it off again with warm water when you are done cleaning the makeup out of it. Make sure you squeeze the excess water out of it too. Then you can just reshape it and lay it flat to dry on a towel. Hope I helped =]How do i clean an expensive foundation make up brush?

Can my make up foundation be lighter then my skin color?
No, only one shade darker but you have to make sure it is in your tone for example- cool or warm otherwise you'll end up with your neck looking a different color as your face, I would recommend only one shade darker, depending on the time of year, In the winter go with a matte finish and in summer something with a glow to it; sheer make up works great, nothing heavy or thick. Good Luck. Former Beauty Specialist, trained by Estee LauderCan my make up foundation be lighter then my skin color?
Ideally, no. Foundation should enhance your skin tone, not change it. If you're having trouble matching your tone, check out the brand I wear - aularale.com/7002, Theirs matches tones 3 shades lighter or datker from one bottle.Can my make up foundation be lighter then my skin color?
Foundation should be one shade darker say you were fair you would use the next one up if you use one lighter you will look really pale but you natural colour seeps through in places not a good look :) hope i helped
You could purchase such a foundation, but my bets are on that it will not cover many flaws. Try getting one to match your skin color or even a shade slightly darker. It provides a better coverage.
Foundation should be one shade darker than your normal skin color. If you go lighter then you are going to end up too white, and look ghoulish.

How do i get liquid foundation make up out of my clothes?
There's this stuff, for toddlers, that gets out ANY kind of stain. Try it. You can find it at Kmart or Babies R Us. It's called ';Totally Toddler.'; I have used it on food stains, blood, vomit, and mascara that I have spilled works like a charm.How do i get liquid foundation make up out of my clothes?
if it's a white piece of clothing, bleach. but if it's colored, nail polish remover (yeah, i no it sound weird but it works) you find it at dollor stores, walmarts, etc.How do i get liquid foundation make up out of my clothes?
I use Oxy-Clean spray and All liquid detergent. Put both on the stain and let it soak a couple of hours. Stain should come out, if not, repeat. I got tattoo ink out of brand new shirt this way, but it took a lot of soaking.
Spray 'N Wash is the most amazing spot cleaner I know of. If it's still fresh, spray some on the spot and wash it immediately. If not, spray some on, let it soak in and gently rub, then wash as soon as possible. If it's a white shirt, or the spot is on a white part of the shirt, you could also try Clorox bleach pen. What's great about the pen is you can just put the bleach on one spot, and it doesn't bleach the rest of your shirt. Good luck!
Use something that is used to remove a grease stain
Try first a mild detergent. If no luck, move on to shout spray or gel. As a last result, and seriously check and test the fabric in an inconspicuous area first... 100% acetone with a qtip in the areas that need it. It usually works, but sometimes it kills the fabric.
Another one that works with a lot of scrubbing is hairspray.
if it's a white piece of clothing, bleach. but if it's colored, nail polish remover (yeah, i no it sound weird but it works) you find it at dollor stores, walmarts, etc.How do i get liquid foundation make up out of my clothes?
I use Oxy-Clean spray and All liquid detergent. Put both on the stain and let it soak a couple of hours. Stain should come out, if not, repeat. I got tattoo ink out of brand new shirt this way, but it took a lot of soaking.
Spray 'N Wash is the most amazing spot cleaner I know of. If it's still fresh, spray some on the spot and wash it immediately. If not, spray some on, let it soak in and gently rub, then wash as soon as possible. If it's a white shirt, or the spot is on a white part of the shirt, you could also try Clorox bleach pen. What's great about the pen is you can just put the bleach on one spot, and it doesn't bleach the rest of your shirt. Good luck!

Which make up/foundation does not look like a mask?
I know there are tons of foundation questions out there, but i still need to know.
I use both powder and cream foundation by loreal, and it always seems like i have a mask on, even if i only use a tiny bit. i also have tiny hair in my face, which i dont want to remove and it always seems as if the makeup excentuates those hairs.
also, whats the ';bare minerals'; everybody seems to be talking about?
thanks a lot for your help!!Which make up/foundation does not look like a mask?
honestly,i get that feeling too. so i've been using tinted moisturizer.
it's amazing, it blends your skin really well and just feels like you're weraring lotion.i love it!Which make up/foundation does not look like a mask?
try neutrogena clean make up! it blends so easily and looks natural
personally i dont like bare minerals because it makes your face look shiny... what it is is loose powder. and its supposed to be good for your skin
Hey there! I'm light skinned with lovely ';peach fuzz'; all about my face (gotta love those Irish genes). I hated the ';orange mask'; look when I try to get foundation so much that I would barely wear make-up. I still don't wear it often, but when I do, I found a foundation made by ';By Jove Cosmetics';. I barely have to bring it down to my neck because I'm able to match my skin tone almost exactly.
I found them on the internet. I'm not sure if they are going to be in stores any time soon, but I love the stuff!
As far as Bare Minerals, I'm not sure-I've not used it yet... I have some friends who swear by it, but I've also heard that it wears off within hours. I'm not very confident that a powder would have that much staying power. Also, I've noticed that if I went without liquid foundation and just a powder those peach fuzzies would stand up and salute! :)
Good luck!

No wonder it looks like you're wearing a mask. Use powder OR liquid foundation, not both. If you're using liquid, go over it with a translucent loose powder, very different from powder foundation. I use L'Oreal True Match powder foundation and I love it. Try applying the powder you have with a foundation brush for sheerer coverage.
I use loreal true match and it works perfect for me. I am blond and also have those little hairs on my face. True match covers them completely. It might be possible that you are applying the makeup wrong. Make sure that you moisturize first, let it dry and then apply the makeup. I use my fingers, but everyone is different. I tried bare minerals for a while. I didn't like it. I thought that it wore off too quickly.
