How to use paints..

[JanineDesiree]

How should I use/apply my Bare Canvas paint?
I'll be using it as a primer for my e/s.
Do I just use my finger?


(yup i am such a m/u virgin!)

YUp- i just use my finger to smooth it all over my lid as a primer.

Do I need to wait a certain time for it to dry or anything?

nah- it dries pretty quickly. You can also wear only a paint if you want a real subtle color.

I put a little on the back of my hand to warm it up, and then use my fingers to apply it to my lids.

I find fingers easiest and fastest. I put a dab on my index finger and then mush it together(to smooth/warm it up) with both index fingers and then apply.

i use my fingers! but when i have my nails done i use a lil concealer brush which works pretty much the same

I've tried using a brush to apply paints but I find that the most efficient way is just to use your fingers - take a small amount onto your finger and just apply and blend into your lid really well.

A MA told me that you can use these before they completely dry, so that the color grabs better. For me, if I wait until they dry they are too dry on me, and the colors look washed out.

a mac ma told to use the 252, but that doesn't work well for me at all - there's more paint stuck in the brush than there is on my eyelid. i squeeze a little on to the back of my hand and then use my index/middle finger to dab.
