I've been such a slacker with my blog lately, which I do apologise for! Everything has cropped up and I haven't had time to sit and prepare or write any posts for you guys. However, I'm going to try my best to upload more frequently for you guys! So let me know any posts you'd like to see!
For the longest time I have struggled to find the perfect foundation for winter, because it's so cold so my skin gets even more dry that usual and it's just one hot mess! Although I think I've cracked my problem and found the perfect long lasting foundation and concealer combo for this winter!
Starting off with foundation, I featured this in my latest haul post, this is the Max Factor Face Finity All Day Flawless 3 in 1 Foundation. This foundation leaves your face looking almost perfectly smooth (and yes I do suffer from acne at times) and it really evens out the complexion. I find that if I use a powder I end up looking slightly too matte and powdery as this finish is middle of the road between matte and natural. I would recommend only using a powder if you really need to.
For application, I use my Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge. It leaves the perfect finish for this foundation!
Concealer wise, I don't like anything too heavy, especially in winter. A current LOVE of mine right now is the Rimmel Wake Me Up concealer. It helps brighten your under-eyes without it seeming too heavy or cakey! One issue I do have, is after a full day's wear (9am-5pm typically) it seems to lightly find it's way into my fine lines under my eyes. However, overall I would put up with that as the positives totally outweigh the negatives.
To apply this, I use the tip of my miracle complexion sponge to help me get into the very corner of my eye and blend it in well!
On their own they work fabulously! But together they are a miracle-working match made in heaven! I definitely recommend you try out these products and let me know how you feel about them!
Also let me know what posts you would like to see! There will definitely be more frequent posts from here on out!
Take care!
