My Tips on how to make your Makeup last ALL DAY!!

I have been getting many messages about you wanting to know how to make your Makeup last all day. Alot of women feel that they put their makeup on in the morning, and it is completely gone in a couple of hours. Well, most of the time it isn’t because of what type of makeup you are using. It is usually because of you not applying your makeup correctly in order for it to last. Here are a couple of Tips for you!!

-Priming- Use a makeup Primer will not only make your makeup look a lot smoother, but it will also make your foundation stay on all day. Foundation usually disappears because it goes into your pores throughout the day. Using a good makeup Primer will prevent this. Priming also prevents your foundations from going into your fine lines, which will give you a more youthful look. I recommend: Makeup Forever HD Primer $32.00

-Placing your product where you want it- One of the most common mistakes I see in makeup application, is using brushes to “Brush” your makeup on. What you really end up doing is wiping your makeup off. Instead, I recommend “placing” the product where you want it to stay. I always “pat” on the makeup. By doing so, the makeup stays where you put it.

-Setting your foundation- Use a translucent loose powder to set your foundation. Setting your foundation will solidify the foundation, and help it stay on longer. If your skin is more on the dry side, use a powder brush, and use a sponge or a puff if you are more normal/oily.  I recommend: Makeup Forever HD Powder $15.00 or Laura Mercier Translucent Powder

Hope this helps!!!

Introducing…My Top 3 Foundation Primers!!

It is extremely important for you to always use a foundation Primer under your foundation. Foundation will look smoother, and also last longer on your face. It will also help with creasing and to smoothen any fine lines. Simply use a little bit over your moisturizer, wait a minute, and apply your foundation. Here are my Favorite Primers. Checkout the one I chose for your skin type:

Oily Skin-  Skinn Orchid Gel Mattefying Primer

This is great for Oily Skin or for someone who loves for their skin to be more matte. Even though its purple, it goes on clear!

Combination Skin- Smashbox Photo Finish Primer

I love the silky feel of this primer! It is great for combination skin types because it reduces shine and helps foundation look amazing  

Dry/Aging/Sensitive-  Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch

This product is great for dry skin types! Its creamy formula moisturizes the skin, and will even keep your makeup out of your fine lines and pores. Keeps your makeup in place as well!
