I am updating my initial drugstore make-up post.
If you have oily skin, this post is for you.
I still use this foundation which gives me a dewy, satin finish look. My shine gets out of control on my forehead by noon though. I really like L'oreal. So I did not give up on it yet. I tried this because it's matte.... yikes. it looked like cake on my face. I wished it worked because it's less than $6.
So back to L'oreal.
The non-Lumi version worked better! I am happier with it. I stayed with Sun Beige W6.
I tried Sand Beige too which is a shade lighter. It worked fine. AS LONG as I bronze well. otherwise, I'd look like a ghost.
I am lighter because of winter. As I get more sun this spring and summer, I don't think sand beige will work anymore as I tan easily.
I try to find ways to make the most out of my make-up prep with the LEAST amount of steps.
it is probably not the best advice or approach with make-up but I cannot justify 20 minutes with just my face.
10 minutes -- that I can handle. (ha!)
I realized that since I don't do much with my eyes (aka no eyeshadow on regular days) -- I have to exaggerate my blush.
My new find is this! I just use it on the apples of my cheeks. Then I blend it well with the bronzer. I don't contour! I do not know how!
I said in my initial post that I do not use mascara in the spring because of my allergies.
Pollen count has been nice to me (so far!) That and I use flonase daily. Thanks sissy for this recommendation. It is changing my battle with seasonal allergies!
I am using this mascara and so far getting away without smudges.
I am so sad this L'oreal mascara did not work. I used it a few times but a couple of hours of wear and I had smudges underneath my eyes. I am already having trouble finding the right drugstore concealer + that mascara smudge. eeeewwww. not pretty.
I am back from spring break and though I wore a hat to cover my face, i still got some sun. Sand beige is definitely out of commission until next winter. I have been playing around with other blushes and more neutral foundation. The neutral ones have a pinkish/orange tint in them compared with the warm versions. I will do another post later with my review.
Linking up with Sarah, Doranda, Morgan, Leanne, Elizabeth, Elena, Madeline, Jaymie, Sydney, Danielle, Grace, Brooke.
