I own so many of these lip polishes and I love them all, from the lightest color in the bunch to the darkest, which was actually the first one I purchased. These are all pretty sheer, and the darker ones give you color, but not full coverage of color, nor are they a hint of color, but you have to try them to know what I mean. I'm not a fan of anything too dark, simply my own personal preference, and yet one shade I own that is extremely close to being a vampy burgundy in the tube looks beautiful on. These are super shiny and if you're not used to a plumper, these are minty and will tingle. I don't need them in the plumping department, I simply like the product on a whole. If you're not a gloss fan, these are sticky if you apply too much.

I own more of these than I care to count and they all wear really well. If you're not a gloss person, these may seem sticky to you. To me, they're pretty smooth in the gloss department. Some colors are highly pigmented, and others are more sheer. I prefer a neutral lip most of the time, but I do own many of these in berry shades that look beautiful and don't clash with dramatic eye make-up. These are priced right alongside competitors' lip glosses, and are often a bit cheaper than a lot of other big name brands. Plus, they ingredients aren't harmful, so you don't have to make yourself crazy about what you have on your lips. These are a healthier alternative to a lot of lip glosses that only have 2-3 natural ingredients in them. Plus, they're very smoothing and moisturizing. These are absolutely worth trying out for yourself. You will find that the travel size versions give you plenty of product, especially if you're not sure you want to commit to the full size version just yet.

This brush is an absolute must, especially if you wear BE's foundation or any mineral make-up for that matter. I no longer wear BE foundation (or ANY foundation), but I still use this brush to apply highlighter, blush, mineral veil, etc. This cleans up well with the right type of cleaner and dries quickly. It does shed, as all BE brushes seem to do, but that's because they are all natural hair. If you want synthetic brushes you want to look elsewhere. If natural hair doesn't bother you, this brush is worth owning.

This is a heavily pigmented lip color. It's not lip gloss. You've got to be extremely careful applying this because it can go on too heavy and become a mess. I haven't found any of the shades to be good matches for me, I prefer lip gloss over lipstick/lip color, but I cannot say that this is a bad product. If you like rich, smooth color, absolutely give this product a try. The applicator gives you complete control over how little, or much, product you use and it conforms to the shape of your lips. I think this is better than lipstick and wish there were some less dramatic shades for those of us who are extremely fair and like a neutral lip to balance out a smokey eye. The few lighter shades have still been too dark in my book, but I'd always be willing to give a new shade a try. Also, I love how moisturizing this is.

I LOVE this brush. I believe I have three of them in different handle colors. This is a high performer. It blends everything for a perfect, seamless look that you actually find yourself in awe of your eye make-up. This brush is an absolute must for all of your blending needs.

This is one version of Mineral Veil that I prefer over the original version. It's got a bit more shimmer to it to give you more of a glow, as opposed to being a skin finisher. I never have to use more than a pinch. If you're worried about this settling into lines and/or wrinkles, add a pinch of it to your moisturizer before you set about applying make-up. It will give you a little bit of additional, and highly necessary, SPF protection, and a dewy look underneath your make-up, especially if you're fair skinned.

I've had my Handy Buki for about 3-4 years and it is still in excellent condition. I use antibacterial Dawn, a Dawn for soft hands, and plenty of warm water to get this one clean and it always leaves it super clean and soft. Admittedly, I often use a little leave-in conditioner on my make-up brushes since I have so many of them and am often cleaning 30 at once. I find that leave-in conditioner or a few minutes of any hair conditioner you aren't currently using works wonders at keeping them soft. This brush does every a small buki brush would do, but because its full size in terms of the handle, it gives you 100% control and excellent coverage. All in all, a worthy brush to have in your collection.

I've been using Rose Radiance ever since it came out. I personally feel that it's a lovely blush color, but I also have to warn that it's very glittery. If you tone it down with Mineral Veil, it shouldn't be a problem, but if you absolutely hate glitter and/or shimmer, stay away from this one.

I have more than one of this particular brush and I love it. It's great at applying blush exactly where it's supposed to be applied- directly on the apples of the cheeks with a great angle to apply it along the cheekbone with ease. I have very high cheekbones to begin with, and this brush works so well in helping me define them with blush, as well as highlighter. I agree with the other review in regard to shedding, which unfortunately happens with every natural hair make-up brush I own, but this is still worth every penny. It washes well, is always super soft, and it doesn't irritate my skin or make me breakout. I've been using BE/BM brushes for a very long time and I've only had to replace one in that entire time, so these brushes will absolutely last so long as you take care of them.

I love this brush. The shadow side is truly one of the softest brushes you will ever use. The liner side is super gentle, easy to use, and provides you with smooth application of any Bare Minerals liner or shadow. I often use a shadow color as liner, and with this brush it makes it very easy to do. If you wet the brush first, before dipping it into a small amount of color, it will soften the lines up and be less severe. However, you can also smudge with your finger if that's how you normally apply liner. Anything goes and this brush is worth every cent. Look for it on Ebay to save money.
