My make up samples came today. They are very pretty. Does anyone have any advice on applying them.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Mine arrived too - but I don't have time to play with them. I would think a make-up brush would be the best way to apply.
Anyone want to move next door to us?
Lawn repair a must. (There's no driveway, so the current owners made their own...what a mess.)
If you look beyond the "driveway" you'll see our white minivan parked in our yard which is sideways to their lot.
That's a lot of money for such a tiny place. Especially one with the description "Charming home w/ tons of potential...A little elbow grease & you're good to go." That's really code for "Best improved with a match," right?
And I think their addition is off on the square footage.
Dammit! Peregrine falcon, right outside my window, looks like he's going into a stoop. And then he disappears below my level of vision and I can't see what happened!
They taunt me!

Get a flocked sponge (Walgreens has them) or a Kabuki brush (weirdly, the Target house brand "bronzer" brush is pretty good, considering it's under $5). I've also used a regular foundation brush and a blush brush, but find that the sponge works best for me, with the brush second best.
There are many sites with application suggestions, and Alima's own looks pretty good: [link]
My method is to tip a small amount of minerals into the lid or a dish, and to press the flocked sponge into the powder, folding the sponge aronud the minerals and sort of squishing them in. I then start applying in short, downward strokes near my jawline, working my way up and towards the middle of my face. Always start with less than you think you'll need.
Happy Zmayhems Day!
Why was it 99 degrees today? I am melting and currently have three beverages in front of me. The difference between the high and low today is supposed to be 41 degrees. ::faints::
Also I need a flocked sponge to try out now. But that is more of a personal problem, I realize.
For comparison, average high for today is 67. Previous record high was 81. It was 99!
