Thanks! Yeah it's my preferred way when working with pigments. Some people do the eye first and clean up underneath before putting on foundation, but I think it's harder to get perfect foundation when you have to avoid the eye area. Also, sometimes you get harsh lines when trying to clean up with Q-tips...so it's easier to dust away the fall-out with a big powder brush. And I think that Cover Girl loose powder was less than $10 for a huge tub, so it's not a big waste anyway.
