Mineral makeup

Mineral makeup makes my pores look huge. Am I doing something wrong?

Have you tried different brushes? You may also be applying too thick. You only need a little bit. A little goes a long way. Good luck!

If not, then it's probably a matter of application technique - too much product will accentuate everything bad, or you might need a different brush (and don't buff it in very much at all - that's only for the stuff with bismuth oxychloride). If you're dry-ish at all, you need to keep your skin really well moisturised and hydrated, especially in winter, or every pore and fine line will show.

And don't get discouraged! Once you get the hang of it, it's great.

You might have better luck with a different brand too. I've found some brands make my pores look huge and others don't.

I have this problem too,and i know for sure that i`m not using too much of it. And no bismuth...

i buff everywhere and then i will buff some foundation on my nose, with watever's left on the brush. that way it won't make them look too big.

maybe you can try another brand or another coverage ?
