1. what are your opinions on maybellines bb cream
2. I wanna use highlighter but I am not sure what to use I was thinking about using a cream eyeshadow by maybelline in barley branded is that okay?
3.I was on youtube to see how to hid your dark circles and she used orange eye shadow and then using concealer has anyone tried this?it's supposed to get get rid of the blue
4. I just bought the real techniques core brushes and I was wondering how you use the brushs

1. haven't tried it.
2.I wouldn't use an eyeshadow on my face just because I think I'd feel sticky.
3. I think doing that would look cakey and dry. they do sell concealer correctors.
Can you post a pic of the brush?

1. I HATED that BB cream. It was worthless. No pigmentation, no coverage, and it made my pores extremely pronounced.

2. If you think that the color tattoo would work for you, it doesn't hurt to try. However, the color tattoos aren't products that I'm a huge fan of, and I think it would likely be slightly too dry a texture for a cream product for use on the face.

3. Try a corrector instead, a salmon/orangey shade would work, then apply your concealer/foundation as normal.

4. Unfortunately I loathe Real Techniques, but the set includes a powder brush, a foundation brush, a flat paddle brush that could be used with either concealer or foundation, and a shadow brush.

Well you can really use them however you'd like but I'd use the buffing brush for foundation, contour brush for highlighter, detailer for concealer under the brows or for whatever and the foundation brush for concealer under the eyes or foundation (:

1) tried it, want too impressed
2) I'm not too sure about that, I would suggest NYX Illuminator instead (I have it in Ritualistic)

3) don't use an eyeshadow, it'll just look cakey and clump up when applying the concealer. Instead use an orange/peach/salmon colored corrector, like NYX Dark Circle Concealer, and then your regular concealer.

4) personally I use the Buffing Brush to apply foundation, the Flat Pointed Foundation Brush to apply my setting powder exactly where I want it, the Contour Brush for blush, and the Detail Brush for lipstick

1. I disliked this product very much.
2. Only highlighter I have used is the elf facial whip, blends very nicely. Love it (:
3. Not sure sorry
4. I like these brushes, except I find the buffing brush to absorb slot of foundation, other than that I like it (:

Hi Alexandra!
I can't help you on many of the questions ( sorry!) as I haven't used those products. But as for question two, I have used a colour tattoo as a highlighter. As I'm more in the warmer skin tone area, I don't use barley but I do use bold gold by maybelline. I find it works perfectly! just apply it after you have finished you face. I like to use my fingers to warm up the product and pat it on lightly to my cheek bones. it gives off a beautiful highlight.

The bb cream was worthless, didn't cover the redness around my nose and forehead area which concerned me if it could cover anything at all!!

1. I havent tried it
2. I would recommend something like becca or mac for a face highlighter. I wouldnt use a cream eyeshadow on my face I think it ll look cakey and dry.
3. applying eyeshadow is a little too much, it ll give you a cakey look but definitely use a salmon or orange concealer
4. for the real techniques brushes I love the buffing brush the most to apply foundation. contour brush is alright I prefer something more angled, pointed foundation brush is too small to apply foundation but you can use to apply concealer under your eyes or set your under eyes with powder. detailer brush, I hardly use it

1. I feel like the bb cream broke me out. It had good coverage and held all day long.
2. If I highlight I use a lighter concealer that's two three shades lighter than my skin color.
3. usually anything that is kinda reddish/ yellowish helps with bruises/under eye circles.
