Shortly after I ran out of RawMinerals foundation, I began using MAC’s Studio Fix Fluid, which caught my eye because of the full coverage and SPF 15 it offers. I had heard from a friend that it worked great, and her skin always looked perfect.
I was not disappointed. When applied, my skin looks glorious: slightly [...]

Makeup products seem to be getting a makeover themselves everyday, and the biggest trend comes in changing traditional application methods. Enter Terry de Gunzburg, creator of YSL’s superstar Touche Eclat Radiant Touch and founder of the high-end line By Terry. I was lucky enough to try By Terry’s Light Expert Foundation, and I’m happy to [...]

Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Foundation is the liquid version of Maybelline’s Bare Escentuals-esque mineral powder foundation. I tried it in Light Beige, and I have to say that the shade bordered on orange-y. Who’s heard of an orangey beige? Not me.
This SPF 18 foundation offers an on-the-fence type of coverage, definitely not sheer and [...]

I don’t have particularly dry skin, but I do have combination skin and I get very dry in some areas, so I know how frustrating dryness can be. I tried Clinique’s new Supermoisture Makeup foundation and I have to say it definitely lived up to its name. Due to my recent experience with very [...]

My Chanel foundation has turned me into a snob. I tried Rimmel’s new and improved version of Lasting Finish 16 HR Foundation with Minerals, fully expecting it to suck just because it’s from the drugstore. What’s happened to me? I used to be so open-minded…well, that and cheap. But this product managed to surprise me! [...]

Remember those filmy Covergirl foundations I mentioned before? Cover Girl Clean Makeup Oil Control Liquid Foundation is the definition of my problem with the brand. This product provides less coverage than most concealers, let alone foundations. The watery formula doesn’t even blend well! On the (extremely nominal nearing nonexistent) plus side, it feels silky when [...]

It’s this amazing triumph when I can cross a department-store makeup item off my wishlist, and this weekend’s purchase was no exception. I’ve lusted after Chanel Teint Innocence for months after reading some “Go Natural But Still Look Hot!”-type rave in Allure magazine that mentioned it as the end-all, be-all in youthful foundation. Since then, [...]

Even though I just turned 22 and am not remotely in need of age-defying makeup, I decided to give Maybelline’s Age Rewind foundation in Nude Light #4 a shot in search of something with nice coverage at the drugstore. I’ve tried far too many filmy Covergirl foundations in the past, so I rarely pick up [...]

Any time you can find a great drugstore foundation, it’s a good thing. Likewise, one that matches your skin well is even better. L’Oreal True Match Liquid Makeup is great for an inexpensive foundation. Use the shade matching swatches at the display (I wear Buff Beige) to find the shade best suited for you. [...]

We’ve all heard about Bare Escentuals BareMinerals foundation – it’s a huge makeup trend. So of course, I had to test it out for myself.
The biggest thing about Bare Minerals is using it properly. Get yourself a big kabuki brush – it doesn’t have to be the Bare Escentuals brand one – and follow the [...]
