Silk Naturals

Hi Ladies! Just wondering how many scoops of the different products everyone uses...
If I am using oil control primer I find I just need one scoop (it seems to go a long way)
I usually use 1.5 scoops of foundation (flat top)
I love Liberty glow but am never quite sure how much to use. I usually end up with 1-1.5 scoops (round kabuki)
or if I use untinted Blur I use 1-2 scoops (this seems to not go as far for me)

Also, if you where an all over glow like liberty do you where blush as well?

I don't measure things out before I use them but I know I use TONS of foundation...
At least 4 scoops a day I think.

I just shake a little into the lid/mixing bowl, do you measure out how much you use of each thing?

This is what I do too.

I am with them......
I have no idea how much of each..... A couple of shakes per loading of the brush...and I load it about 4 or 5 times for foundation.

me too! I haven't ever measured but I use quite a lot! at least 4 scopps, but probably more. I brush on the foundation at lease 3 or 4 times, and use a spray mist halfway through... this helps so that it doesnt look cakey, it just looks so smooth, exactly like my own skin!

I have no idea, I load my foundation brush at least 2 times, but I just shake in to my swirly bowl, same with finishing powder. I always sprinkle blush lightly, and then add more if it isn't dark enough.

I put mine in the lid too, or a rice bowl! Not sure how much I use, but I load the kabuki brush probably 4-5 times for foundation, same for finishing powder. I add tempt tryst and crystal into my finishing powder so they aren't as shiny (my skin is normally too oily to wear glows straight from the jar) and yes, I do wear blush with them!

Thanks for sharing what you ladies do!! I guess I'm a little OCD with my scoops!!!

I eyeball everything. I purchased the newest Fiber Optic brush so I could use smaller amounts of my Zinc Powder and the Finishing Powder I mix up myself. (Tempt Tryst w/Blur or PP, with a scoop of Yellow and BG foundation. This lightens it a bit and takes some of the glowy away.)

I sprinkle tiny amounts in my swirly bowl. If I need more, I sprinkle more. I start with my skin care and finish with the treatment powder with the FO brush. Then I use my zinc powder as my primer/corrector (I mix yellow and green corrector with it.) Then I switch to my flat-top brush and apply my foundation. Right now, I'm using about a tsp of foundation to one scoop of WG and approximately 1/2 scoop of yellow corrector. I'm extremely fair, but my yellow undertones are there, big time. I switch back to the FO brush and use my especially blended perfecter/finisher. I put on blush last because I depend on the yellow in my finisher to help prevent my blush from going too pink as it reacts with my body chemistry.

I don't know how much foundation I use...perhaps a scoop. I have good skin, so I think I'm pretty much a minimalist there. I mix foundation approximately 2/3 Original to 1/3 Medium. The other products I use, like the zinc powder and my PP make it so I don't HAVE to use that much foundation.
