Why is it better than applying with foundation brush

The sponges leave a more sheer, skin like finish where a brush leaves a medium to heavy application.

I still use my foundation brush because I just feel like it. However I love using these products because it makes my makeup look like skin. You just have to know how to apply your foundation. Put on small amount at a time.

Once you use it you will know. It gives a very flawless finish with no streaks and provides great coverage.

i can't answer that because i use it with liquid foundation. looks good with the latter.

Mineral Veil is for a finishing touch...in my opinion. I use a medium foundation first, then lightly apply bronzer. The Mineral Veil adds a very nice finish on top of everything. I love these products. Have been using them for years. Good luck.

I wouldn't recommend this particular brush for mineral powder foundation, I love to use this brush for contouring with creams or powders. This brand has another brush, it's called the buffing brush, I got it when I bought the core collection, it's also available as part of "Sam's Picks" Collection, I love it for powder foundation, it provides a full coverage.

I prefer using the single action air brush. I have a double action that works fine it just requires thinning where with the single action I can usually get good results without the thinning. I have used enamels and water based for model cars through both.

the foundation is silk and makes your skin look flawless but you must use a lot. It will make your skin shine so use a brush power, other than that it is great and does make you look a little younger, the foundation don't last long so get several bottles

For me it gives medium to full coverage. You can also build on it by using the stipple method as well. It just doesn't work well under eyes since the brush is so full. But I use a concealer brush in the smaller areas. Over all a great foundation brush. Especially for the price!

Yes, the process is much faster, I'm not familiar with using my fingers, but I will say it's easier and faster than using my brushes. It also allows for a smoother more flawless looking application of the makeup.

YES! make sure to wet the sponge thoroughly before using it. 1) make sure its very damp 2) squeeze out the excess water so the sponge isn't dripping 3) make sure the sponge is nice and moist ( I make sure its extra moist for mine, so the sponge doesn't soak up a lot of my foundation...that's my opinion haha) These steps helped my foundation look beautiful with an airbrush finish(:

Well. this cream is wonderful, not oily and easily adsorbs by skin, not sticky. I, personally don't use foundation, but I can tell you from experience being an airbrush make-up artist, this cream will be just fine under foundation. My advice will be to wait 15 min before applying foundation.

No. I dnt use it alot, but it feels pretty light. It is good to take away shine, but is pretty translucent so you should ise it over another foundation.

I know what you mean, those brushes are awful. The main purpose of this brush is to apply setting powder or bronzer, so my instinct is to say no - it's too large to be precise with, and designed to apply a light layer of powder rather than give any kind of coverage. However, I would highly recommend going to her website (realtechniques.com) to see if she has a brush that's meant to apply powder foundation. Because if it's anything like this one then it will be amazing.

It depends on your skin quality and how much coverage you want. It's really light. I pair it with a solid loose powder on days I want really light coverage and that works fine. I've also paired it with mineral powder as well for a bit more coverage. Personally, I would think foundation on top might be a bit much.

Yes, I use it every day under my normal foundation. When you first apply it, you think it is going to be oily, but it absorbs in just a couple of minutes. I find that it lets me use less foundation. I do apply a light coating of powder afterwards, and before applying powder blush. If you were using a liquid blush, I would suggest applying it prior to powder.

Sure. You can put other products over the top of your foundation, just as you would with any other foundation. I would recommend using an airbrush bronzer, though. It turns out very natural looking.

this is good for medium to full coverage foundation. I gave 2 links for blush brush :) http://realtechniques.com/look-blog/your-perfect-finish-sam-s-real-techniques-blush-brush http://www.amazon.com/Real-Techniques-RLT-1407-Blush-Brush/dp/B004TSFBJO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1394935421&sr=8-2&keywords=real+techniques+blush+brush

I've used it with my tarte 12hr full coverage which is thicker than the regular foundation and it applies it very well. Very smooth finish.
