They both have a nice weighty feel and are quite soft and full. I purchased the badger flat top and the crease brush.

It seems smaller to me than what I imagined, but perfect for my Walt Disney World Trips (I am also a huge WDW addict, check out the DIS boards if you like visiting the "mouse" too).

I took 2 weeks and 1 day, from the shipping date, to arrive. Usually, for me, it takes about a week. The only thing missing was the blush, I guess it was backordered.

Just as I was hitting the "Pay" button the site crashed, my DBF was looking over my shoulder saying "Maybe it's a sign that you shouldn't spend any more money on makeup."

I didn't miss the Meow sale!!! I ended up purchasing a Flawless Feline munchkin in Frisky Sphynx and a few samples. I really can't wait to get it!I was visiting my baby sis in the big city this weekend, and we had a lot of fun.

I think that last night I got a little carried away and applied it like I do Meow Purrrfect Puss, with a heavy hand. This morning I did my usual routine (moisturize, silica, concealer and foundation) and applied it with a lighter touch. The result was reallt smooth coverage and no "masky" feel.

It's about my adventures in trying out Mineral Makeup. I never used to wear makeup, I was never able to find a match, and found putting on makeup way too time consuming.
