you don't need much. Did you try just applying it with the sponge tip? Usually, I only see a tiny droplet of actual product, as the rest is in the sponge. You really don't want a big blob to be visible, that would be way too much. Try dabbing with the sponge tip, across forehead, down the T zone, and blend. I bet you can do your entire face with the tiny bit visible. It might take a few clicks to get enough product into the sponge, but once it's started, only a click or two will do it. Hope this helps.

Oh no. Sounds to me the twisty thing is broken. Did you buy it in a store because if so, march back and show them the product has a defect. If you bought it on line I would contact the seller. As for me, I buy it at the drug store or walmart. Are you twisting it to the right? I am trying to think it may take 20 twists to see the product come out, 10 at least. If after 20 twists nothing comes UP,...return because of defect.

It is in the sponge. Push the sponge against your face after twisting a few times

I had that happen before and I took it back to the store and got a new one. Mine just spun n spun.

The makeup usually comes out into the sponge top without difficulty with a few turns at the base.. We have used this Maybelline product for several years and have never found a "dud" but it is always a possibility. My daughter said to let sponge completely absorb makeup. Hope this helps.

It burned the *expletive deleted* out of my face after about a minute. I left it in probably for about 3 minutes before I used baking soda to neutralize it. I would say do a test on your neck or something first because it was not my first peel I knew what to expect. What I do now is I only put it on areas that are uneven in tone or that have pimples and leave it for the full time (about 8-10 min) or as long as I can stand it LOL and then neutralize it. Follow up with a moisturizer for your skin type (I use pure argan oil from Morocco) and you're good to go! It is a pretty decent peel even if it burns a bit and it doesn't quite PEEL peel but you'll notice your skins clarity improves. Hope this helped!

Hi Tarie, I clean my airbrush every time after been used and I spend less than 5 minutes with warm water. But I am having a hard time to use this airbrush, I can not find the right make up, and the right way to use. I was practicing with water, and with some makeup, but did not work, I think that I was not a good idea to buy this airbrush. I do not know to use it.

I saw someone do it on YouTube and she had a afro. I got dark brown hair but not a afro tho but it worked IDK if the texture matters so give it a try girl!

You need to spin it around after putting it on the shampoo or conditioner; I think it was counterclockwise (don't hold me to that) until you get frustrated, and then keep going past that point for what feels like forever. Maybe do it while watching a movie. Seriously, my second one took maybe ten minutes to open, but I'm persistent. (Or stupid)

Yikes! Don't use it...should not be green! Actually, I didn't have much success with this product at all. It came out very "freckly" looking. Good luck!

Me too. I had so much trouble to get it out. Finally twisted it hard and it came out and onto my face. So annoying.

This does not sound right at all. Mine is like a very soft gel--goes on skin like silk. I do manipulate it around in the tube before using to make sure all is mixed well. You might try that.

Hi I have straight hair and the curls came out really tight . So maybe you should make it straight before using . Or you can try it your way first if it don't work try it my way . Have a great day

Don't by this from here. I got it in the mail and there was NO product in the bottle. I would suggest you go to a local Target/CVS to get it. I actually don't suggest buying any makeup products from here. The bottle was quite small though depending on how much you use it, I would say that it might last you a month or two.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-prf0zeEHQone way this is not me thoughI would wash it and leave it in the conditioner for 2 hr. and then let it air dry and finally brush it out with a comb it worked with my wig.

Have you tried cleaning it Once in a while? I havent tried powder foundation with it, but try to work with the brush for a while, maybe it will work out :

The sponge "loads" with makeup by twisting. You will need to twist the packaging quite a few times the first time you use it to get the makeup up into the sponge. I generally do 4-5 twists, then gently squeeze the sponge to see if the makeup is starting to flow, then twist 1-2 times, test, twist 1-2 times, test, etc. After that initial preparation, you will just need to twist once or twice each time you use it.

It goes on like water. Does not crack or peel. For me it looked good for about a half hour, then it made me look even older. I have dry skin, maybe that's why. I returned it. Good luck.E

Ha- Had the same problem for 2 hours. Thought it was just me. Its not the applicator per se that opens, its the top part of the TOPIX Powder. The applicator has ridges that screw on the Topix. Cant remember if you have to remove the top part screen w/holes. Just take of cover and the applicator will fit right in. It takes a few puffs to put it on,then use your finger to rub powder in and around. Works better when hair is wet.

When this happens to me, I carefully take a brown permanent sharpie or brown non sparkly eyeshadow. I carefully dab either on swiping w/ a towel where my seams show also in the part. It makes for a much more realistic looking, if you get it to dark you won't be happy, but dark enough to cover. There are probably tutorials on how to make roots on youtube. I buy expensive wigs w/ gradient roots, I think it looks more realistic. Hope that helps!
