March Favorites

This is a little late but hey, its here. March favorites. I was such a bump on a log in March. I blame it mostly on the shitty Maine weather. In fact we have snow on the ground as we speak which we got yesterday!

So I have been wearing NYX Buttergloss in Tiramisu  almost every single day. I love the NYX Buttergloss's . I actually got mine at Target in a gift set so I got 3 for 6.99 when they normally are around 4.50 each. I bought every one they had on the shelf :) Also my Target now has NYX which is amazing because they are one of my favorite drug store makeup brands and they are so affordable!

I have also been loving and using daily the Hardcandy Primer I mentioned in my last post. I require a primer when I do my makeup. I am extremely dry because of my eczema so using a primer over my face cream just give me the extra moisture. I also have notice that I am not as oily at the end of the day. I am in a salon with the dryers going and I am moving around so with some primers I become greasy and look like my ass needs a shower! ASAP!

I have also been loving my Makeup Forever HD setting powder. I am so sad that I hit pan on this product. It cost me 26 bucks for a smaller compact. That is alot of money for a setting powder in my eyes that is so small. I have been told however that the E.L.F HD setting powder is amazing as well and is about 6 bucks. I am going to pick some up when I finish my Makeup Forever one.

I have also come to love the Big Sexy new blonde line that recently came into my salon. I myself am not blonde but everyone I have used it on has loved it! It just leaves the hair so soft and cuts the brass. I have used the shine spray and that shit smells so great... haha shit smelling great. It smells amazing and I actually prefer it over my Redken shine spray....shit.

Thats really it honestly. I have been really using my same old same old products, mostly due because I currently am on a "no buy" for makeup until I use up some of my stuff. Annoying because I see some exciting new Spring stuff and I want it! Guess that just means I need to wear more makeup :)

Drug Store Foundations

                           THE BATTLE OF THE FINDING THE PERFECT FOUNDATION So for some odd reason I got it in my head that in the middle of winter with my skin being dry, flaky and breaking out would be the PERFECT time to try new foundations! So I grabbed my coupons and shopped at my local Walgreens and Rite Aid. Walking through the makeup section can be overbearing because there are so many different kinds of foundations on the market. You have full coverage, ageless, photo finish it can be a little annoying honestly. Over the last month or so I tried six different foundations which can all be found at your local drug store. Before we move on I should say that I don't like a luminous finish. I like my foundation and face to be overall matte. My skin right now is dry from it being winter but I also at times can look like I have an oil slick on my face. Each foundation I did use the Two Faced Hangover Primer. ...
