So on a bit of a whim I bought the Bare Minerals Blemish Remedy foundation. I've used it a couple of time and really like it but I'd love some tips from you ladies (and gents) who use mineral powder foundations more often!

What products do you use to achieve the best finish? Moisturisers? Primers? Concealers (before or after)? Etc...

What tips can you give a powder foundation newbie like me?

Well I always moisturize beforehand no matter what. For primer I use Hourglass mineral Veil since it gives my skin a silky feeling (similar to silicone primers but without that almost greasy feel). If I'm going to put on any concealer I always do so before the foundation (cream before powder). for tools I use either a densely packed domed brush or a flat sponge.
