How does one clean Laura Mercier makeup brushes?

Wet the brush with warm, but not hot, water. Using about a dime sized amount, massage shampoo into the brush, making sure to get down to the base. Then, rinse until the water runs clear. Repeat this step if this is the first time washing your brushes, or haven't done it in a while. Then, using the same amount, condition your brushes with a regular conditioner. Rinse until runs clear. Allow to dry overnight (sometimes longer, you'll be able to tell when they're dry). Make sure to lay brushes in the shape you want them to dry in, otherwise the bristles will become misshaped.

Which is better Bare Minerals or Mac makeup?

If you prefer pressed powders and liquid foundations, MAC is better. If you like loose powders and powder foundations, go with Bare Minerals.

Bare Minerals recently introduced a small selection of pressed-powder eyeshadows, but most of their line is loose. IIRC there are no loose powders in the MAC line.

As far as quality goes, they're both very good.

When does eye make up expire?

Mascara- They say you should change or re-buy your mascara every month. Personally I've had mine for several months and it's still just fine and works the same.

Eyeliner- I don't think eyeliner really ever "expires", because I've had the same pencil for a year now although gel liners are probably every 4 months.

Eyeshadow- Same as eyeliner, but there is a certain point after a little more than two years where I feel like they don't have as much pigmentation.

It all depends on what color you would like to stand out. If you want more blueish eyes I would say a blue eyeliner and a brown shadow with mascara.

What colour eye make up should you have to go with blue eyes and a turquoise dress?

I think a shimmery lilac or light pink would look cute if your'e going for the more subtle but pretty look. You don't want to do too much, especially if you have a bright blue dress. If you want to go for a more sexy look you could do subtle smoky eyes. I have blue eyes and blonde hair too and I use a smoky grey colour instead of black or a silvery colour. Black is sometimes too dark for blue eyes and overpowers them but a grey/silver with cool tones brings the eyes out and makes them pop! Definitely use black mascara or dark dark grey as I find brown doesn't work as well and isn't as dramatic. Use an off-white or light pink eyeliner pencil on the bottom inside of the eyelid and around the inner corner of the eye nearest to the nose to bring the whites of the eyes out and make your eyes even bluer.

If you focus on your blue eyes then you should leave the rest of the look simple. Use a subtle highlighter on the cheekbones. I have pale/medium skin and use a peachy pink blush as well very lightly over the highlighter to give a bit of colour.

Finish off with a subtle lip gloss or lipstick with or without lip-liner in a medium pinky colour that isn't too dark or overpowering so you don't draw attention from the eyes.

Hope this helps! i would also like to say i would recommend a brand of make up called pur minerals. Pur minerals doesnt have any perservatives or any oil or any thing that can harm your skin. It is pur minerals and wont clog your pores. It does nothing to the skin and if breakouts are a problem it wont make it worse. They have all different colours like for those nights on the town or even a nice casual look. I used it and i loved it, but everyones opinon is different. It also gives you a GREAT coverage with all different shades. When i used it i looked so feminem! Hope my additinal answer helps too!

What is the difference between soft gel nail and hard gel nail?

Hard gel enhancements are also known as "buff off nails" whereas soft gels are also known as "soak off nails". The difference is mainly to do with the removal technique. Hard gels are non-porous and so cannot be removed by any other method than buffing it right down. Soft gels are able to be soaked off with acetone which is much easier. However, soft gels tend to be more lightweight and flexible, which some people prefer as it seems more natural, but it does mean they tend not to last as long as hard nails which are stronger.

The main material that is used in cosmetics is something called talc which you can find in mines in Rajastan in India.
