I love the Bare Minerals pressed powder foundation, but a 30 day compact costs $30! It's good stuff and I love it, but has any one found a cheaper alternative?? I am a poor girl! :laugh:

I think it's mostly for color matching though.

30 days? I get at least three months out of one of those. Are you using it to hide beard shadow or something? If so,use a color corrector, too

Being transgender is just a phase. It hardly ever starts before conception and always ends promptly at death.
They say the light at the end of the tunnel is an oncoming train. I say, climb aboard!
Think outside the voice box!

My complexion is just so uneven and I also use the BM to bake my liquid concealer on. Then I do my eyes, blush bronzer and finishing spray. Here's the result. (too much lipstick! lol!)

Sometimes I wear mascara. I would recommend going to SEPHORA and telling them your issue. They may be able to recommend a cheaper solution.

Your complexion looks perfect and I will try Sephora. Thanks! I've been going to ULTA because they have a Brow Bar
