As I mentioned before, on my last day of makeup classes, my class and I went on a field trip to Make Up For Ever in NYC. We had the perk of shopping with a 40% discount so it was very hard for me not to blow my pockets, but I managed. I bought the following Make Up For Ever products:

All Mat Face Matifying Primer

This primer is AMAZING! True to its word, it goes on matte and doesn’t feel sticky like other primers I’ve tried. It dries right away and leaves no shine. In fact, it absorbs extra oils. Because of its silicon base, it doesn’t sink into my skin, clogging my pores. My foundation goes on so much more smoothly than if I don’t apply primer, and my makeup stays perfect all day! I never was much of a primer person for anything other than my eyes, but now that I’ve found the perfect primer, I will never apply my makeup without it!

 Lip Pencil #44 and Liquid Lip Color #5 rue La Boetie

These two together create an awesome nude pink lip. I’d been searching high and low for the perfect nude pink lip duo, and I really like this one. I use the lip liner not only to line my lips but as a base color all over my lips (having applied concealer first). Then I apply the gloss on top. It goes so great with a smokey eye, and I get so many compliments whenever I wear it. Love!
