I was wondering how you all mix your foundation. I measure mine into the jar, close the lid without the sifter and shake it from side to side. But the problem is that now I get tiny clumps of the dark foundation and when I use it as concealer I sometimes end up with brown spots on my face.
So how do I mix so I don't get the clumps? I try not to pack my little scoop every time I measure. I just scoop up and shake off the little mound. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a trick to mixing the powders or should I just shake longer?
I love SN foundation, so I'll do anything to make it work perfectly for me! SN foundation is a dream come true! I love the way it melds with my skin and makes me look flawless!

Mostly just shake longer. Hit it on your hand and turn, and hit it again to loosen everything up. If you mix larger batches, some have used small baggies.

not just side to side but up and down and all around... give it a really good shake about... don't be frightened... it won't hurt it!
