Nic I have oily skin and heard (Gossmakeupartist) say not to moisturise. He advises just a spray of Fix Plus instead. I have to admit that not moisturising really works for me. I am hardly ever shiny now.
@0RainbowAngel0 Even if you have oily skin, you still need to moisturize because you need something to even out the PH balance in your skin. Don't think that just because you're skin is oily that it's hydrated because that's the exact opposite. You need to find a moisturizer that's oil free so your skin can get the hydration it needs as well as protect your skin from oil breakouts and UVA/UVB rays. Plus, you can get premature wrinkles if you don't moisturize!
Does Select Coverup Concealer photograph as badly as the Studio Finish Concealer? I get the reverse Panda look with Studio Finish, but I have massive dark circles that need to be covered :(
I've had that happen before but it hasn't happened with the studio finish! Make sure you set it with powder (and sometimes i spray some fix+ on a 224 and set it with that as well and it stays ALL day!!)
If you get the right shade, it should. I recommend Mary Kay foundation and powder for close-up kind of things. It works miracles. Their powder is my favorite. :)
I have a very oily skin and I have started using Boots No7 Shine free make up base. It's excellent, you wear it over your moisturizer and put it on 5 mins before your foundation, it should keep you shine free for about 6 hours.
sounds like you have combination skin. try a mattifier gel in your t-zone where you get oily. or carry a blot powder with you. make sure your foundation has a matte finish
My skin is dry and at times gets patchy, then when i apply makeup, my skin gets shiny and oily looking along the forehead and nose, is there any suggestion?
I've tried the tissue trick & it does work but I can't really do that in a middle of a class =/ because my face usually gets shiny while i'm in the middle of my class & i'm taking a quick look at the mirror in my bag for any smudges .
Actually, the worse it smells - the better. Most moisturizing lotions and facial/cleanser creams smell incredibly nice because of the alcohol content. Don't be fooled, go for the ones with a neutral smell - the results are also better.
Hey! Great video!! Can i just say you remind me soo much of saffia who was in big brother! I was watching it the other night and I knew she looked like someone!!xx
oh my gosh i never noticed your star tattoo before! i was thinking about getting a tattoo simialr to that. Did it hurt a lot? great tutorial by the way!!!
Besides what she said was why they minimized the look of pores. Which is great, since lots of people don't have a clue why those type of products cause that effect.
i always think you already have foundation on because your skin is so amazingly gorgeous. and then you put lotion on and i realize that its just your bare skin being fabulous. so envious.
I love your makeup , I hope one day that I can do my makeup like you do. I live ina small town and Merle Norman is the only place to get really good makeup. I was wondering what you think of Merle Norman's makeup line.
What if you have combination skin? I have mostly oily skin and hair but parts of it is dry. Like on my face, my cheeks are dry and I'm super sensitive.
this video is the most like my evening makeup including all the products you used, accept I don't use a brow highlighter because I am over 30 and after I am done I take a cotton swab soaked in visine and dab it into the corners of my eyes.
you know when you said that thing about the pallettes it was a little misleading you have said something like you buy the pots or buy an empty quad and buy the PANS or you can buy the 12 empty pallette and again buy the PANS becuase if you say it like you did people will think you can buy the pallette with the colors already in it! :)
I have never been to mac pro store b4 and i dont know whether i need to get a card or something in order to purchase those palette, or I can just but it normally?
To buy from the store you need a MAC Pro card, but you can still order MAC Pro products by phone without the card by calling the number on the website
I own the Skin Refined Zone stuff and I find that when I use a fountadion brush afterwars it streaks and rubs off a lot. am I doing something wrong?
