As I had promised in my last post, here is my foundation/ face makeup collection and routine. As you can see I am a drugstore makeup girl. I have used one upscale foundation from Clinique that I did not like at all. That kind of left a bad taste in my mouth for the higher brands so I have gone back to the drugstore brands and have found some products that I really enjoy. As I go through the products I like I will let you know the price of each and also have them linked to where you may purchase them for yourself. Again, I want to mention that I am not an expert in makeup or have any sort of training! These are just products that I have found to really work for me and wanted to talk a bit about!
M-A-C 150- This is one of the more pricey brushes at $42, but I stole this brush from my mom before I moved to Colorado. (Sorry mom!) I mainly use this brush for my setting powder (which I will go into more detail later). I used to use it as my blush brush but I found it was too big for my face to do that.
Sephora Mineral Powder 45- $24. The other two brushes are the same. I use one for my foundation and one for my blush. They are the perfect size for applying foundation and blush!
Beauty Blender- $19.95. This is the best invention in all of makeup land! You simply wet the beauty blender until it gets to size, pat dry it with a towel and use it for any liquid foundation or concealer. I leaves your skin looking so dewy and flawless. I mainly use it for my concealer and absolutely adore it!
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer- $7.99. I have just recently started using this and am not sure what to think yet. I am trying to find a concealer that doesn't crease and still have yet to find one. This one does crease but not as badly as some of the last products I have used. I do like the little sponge applicator though. That's handy.
Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation- $9.49. This is my absolute go to foundation! I cannot rave enough about it! It covers so well and it lasts all day without primer! It blends well and matches very true to my skin tone. Love, love, LOVE this foundation!
Rimmel Stay Matte Long Lasting Pressed Powder- I want to say this was around $7 but do not quote me on that. I mainly use this powder to set my foundation and concealer. Sometimes the foundation can make my skin look a little oily so this powder really helps matte things out and set everything to my face. I cannot go a day without using this.
Last but not least are my blushes!
Covergirl Trublend Mineral Blush- $7.94. I really do like this blush! I have it in Shimmering Sands and the color is so pretty. It's a very light pink with little hints of gold. It really brightens up my face and makes it look very fresh!
e.l.f. Blush- I am not the hugest fan of this blush but it was only $3 and I do use it when I am wanting more of a matte blush rather than the shimmery blush. I have the Elf blush in Tickled Pink and I wish I had it in a bit of a darker shade. It's a very coral/orange color that works well with my lilly white skin.
There you have it! That is all the makeup that I use for my face/skin. This was a very long post and I do apologize if you got bored a bit but I wanted to cover all the bases. I hope a few of you found this interesting and helpful! I would love to hear about your makeup and what you think about these products. Also, if you have any suggestions on other products you think I may like please feel free to leave them in the comments!
I will be back tomorrow night with a look into what I use for my eyes!
Byeeeee!
