I applied my primer to my skin with my fingers. I applied and blended my foundation with the Bdellium Tools 957. I applied my concealer under my eyes with the Luxie Concealer Brush and blended with the Beauty Blender Micro Mini. I set under my eyes with the RT Setting Brush and the rest of my face with the Danielle Powder Brush. I applied my bronzer to my cheeks and forehead with the Bdellium Tools 955. I contoured my cheekbones with the Luxie Large Angled Brush. I applied my blush to my cheeks with the Danielle Blush Brush. I applied my highlighter to the tops of my cheekbones, down the nose, and the Cupid's bow with the RT Fan Brush.
I lightly filled in my brows with the pencil and set them with the gel.
I applied my eye primer and blended from lash line to brow with my finger. I applied Cocoa in and above the crease with the Bdellium Tools 781. I applied Whipped to the lid with the RT Base Shadow Brush. I applied Espresso to the outer corner with the Bdellium Tools 769 and blended through the crease with the Danielle Blending Brush. I applied Hazelnut to the lower lash line with a MAC 219. I applied Macadamia to the brow bone and inner corner with the Bdellium Tools 765. I applied my liner to my tight line and waterline and one coat of mascara to my bottom lashes and two on the top.
I applied my lip color from the tube.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
-BareMinerals Original Foundation: This foundation is very natural looking and skin like so it'd be great for an everyday kind of look but I like with with a full face too. It doesn't look powdery or cakey on the skin, blended so smoothly into the skin, and has a lovely radiance to it. I definitely like this!
-Pure Cosmetics Nude Collection Eyeshadow Palette: Reminded me of a Naked palette the first time I opened it just with the colors in it. The shadows are very pigmented and blend so smoothly and easily however some of the shades don't translate onto the eye the same color as they look in the pan. For instance Espresso looks like it's purple in the pan however on the eye it was basically black and Hazelnut looks much lighter in the pan than it does on the eye. Also there's only 3 matte shades so I don't see myself using this very often.

That looks so lovely on you! My mum uses that BM foundation too, it works on so many skin ages! She loves it too but it took me such a long time to convince her that powder foundation is good for dry skin.
I really love that lip colour, would you recommend Colourpop? It's so awkward to get for me as the shipping to the UK is so expensive.

Lainee, Danielle, Anna, and Sarah, thank you so much!
Hannah, thank you! The brand representative for BareMinerals convinced me to buy it because she said it worked for all skin types and I didn't really believe it at first but now I definitely do! I would recommend Colourpop if you really want to try them out but otherwise you can pretty much find dupes for all their lip products in other brands, honestly
