I have yet to try that revlon one! Is it any good? I like revlon for a few of their products.
I personally love the whipped version better than the regular. I have oily skin and this works to keep the oil at bay and hasn't broken me out, plus of course as the name says it lasts all day.

I need Seduced at Sea blush and then my drawer is almost full.



Hi. My name is smooch3s and I'm a MAC addict.

It's almost ridiculous how much I have. Yet I still buy more. SMH
Good for you Smooch3s---looks perfectly normal from where I sit...and room for more!!! You're right at home here!
My drawer looks like that but I have labels on the sides & they're in alphabetical order.

I have been meaning to try the Revlon colorstay whipped formula---will have to give it a go!
It's a great foundation and applied with a flat top kabuki its so fast and just awesome. Im almost out and I need to restock. I just bought the l'oreal true match and it didn't even last 2 hours on me.

Perfect for me in summer then. I usually have dry skin during the winter and during the summer oil city. I will give that one a try thank you!

I carry a lot of redness in my face, especially on my cheeks, so I do prefer more coverage most days. I didn't used to have so much redness. It just started a few years ago. What concealer do you all use? I have the MUFE full cover in pink porcelain, but it's not a great match. None of the shades were, unfortunately, but I do like the product. I use the MAC studio conceal and correct palette in light a lot. I also enjoy the Eve Pearl salmon concealer in fair under my eyes. I also use the Inglot cream concealer in the green shade on my redness.

This is a nice video of someone applying AS. To me it looks like it gives a fair amount of colour, even though she finds it to be sheer/light. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiYTrtEtvvc

I know, I don't like having to mix but it is the only way I can get a true match.  Do you have the pumps?  I couldn't be bothered to mix everyday if I didn't have pumps on them.  A pump from each and I'm good to go.  I tested the Laura Mercier and liked it but I haven't purchased it.  I need to try the Armani.
I never invested in pumps. But that's a much better idea. Thank you! I really like the Armani if it wasn't for the more liquidy factor It would be my HG. I like foundations to have a more creme consistency. It's much better for my Sahara dry skin. I wish more companies would make more neautral friendly colors. The few I've ever found have always been to dark.

When I do use concealer, this is going to sound weird, but the best one I have tried yet is the bh cosmetics conceal palette in light! So far it has been working great. I know a few people complain because it is one of those companies that get things from china but it is good. I have a lot of redness too as I've told you lol. Anywho Hi Mandy :)

I have a lot of redness on my face naturally especially the cheek area and my favorite primer has to be the Boots No 7 anti redness primer. I Then put the whipped colorstay on with the flat top kabuki and use the Mac prolong wear concealer in nc15 if I need to cover any pimples and dark circles. Personally though just the anti redness and the foundation makes a big difference with the redness and you can't even see it.

I'm watching some of your videos Mandy, can I just say red balloon looks amazing on you as a red. So pretty!

I'm telling you. If you can try and sample laura mercier in creme smooth. I have rosacea on my face and it has done the best at covering the red without having to cake on concealer and accentuate dry spots worse.
