Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation

Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation

$36 Macy's

This foundation is pricey, but has been working good on my skin. I use a damp foundation sponge to 

apply all over my face, then apply another coat to the areas that need more coverage. In my opinion, this foundation can be a light/medium to full coverage foundation, depending on the amount used.

Hand held Face Brush

I bought this hand held face cleanser from Ulta for about $4. It is a great to use for removing makeup, while exfoliating skin. Apply cleanser, cleanse in a circular motion and rinse.

Smasbox Studio Skin Foundation

Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Foundation

Medium to Full coverage

I have been dealing with acne for a long time now and could never figure out what was causing it. I always have little bumps around my chin area with occasional cystic acne, which is very painful! Just recently I stopped using revlon colorstay makeup, which I have been using for about 10 years, magically my acne is starting to clear up. I am not sure if it is just a coincidence or if it really was the makeup that was breaking me out. Anyways, I switched to this higher end makeup and have been loving it so far. It is supposed to help reduce the production of oil, sweat and humidity resistant, tranfer-proof and long lasting. I have been using it for about 3 days now, so far so good! 

Wide tooth comb

Conair Shower Comb

I love this wide tooth comb! It has rounded ends that are smooth and gentle on my scalp. I have tried others before that are pointy and hurt! This comb is good for combing through conditioner in the shower or detangling hair after a shower. I bought mine at target about five years ago. If you are interested in this comb you can buy it on amazon.com for less than $2 or CVS drugstores.

Mascara

Old Favorite...

Almay one coat nourishing mascara

I used to love this mascara! I went through about four of them. When i went to target to buy my fifth round they were all out. I saw a different one, by the same brand, and decided to try it out. It was called Almay one coat get up & grow. This mascara is now........

My New Favorite......

The applicator is fuller and applies better with less effort. I will continue to buy this mascara as long as they make it. I give this product a thumbs up.

Makeup remover towelettes

Almay makeup remover towelettes work well on my sensitive skin. It is very hard for me to find a good product that won't irritate my skin or break me out. I would recommend this product if your skin sounds similar to mine.

Brow Powder

Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow powder Duo powder. This is a good product to use to create natural looking brows for a more polished look after filling in sparse areas with Maybelline 'Define-a-Brow'. It is pricy, but SO worth it. It lasts a long time and works well. Use a brow brush to apply. $22
