It's a new dawn, It's a new day, It's a new life, For me, AND I'M FEELING GOOD

OMG. So I finally found my HG products for matte skin! Any foundation, liquid or powder, makes me skin super oily. I used tons of products that mattify or are anti-shine and they didn't work. I tried regular moisturizers and I was still shiny. I tried Smashbox photofinish primer and it reduced shine a little bit, but not too much. I recently bought charged waters and MAC studio moisture fix. It made my skin matte all day! It looks shiny in the pictures but I promise you that when I look in the mirror, my skin looks very fresh and matte! + points for MAC! Now let's hope I don't break out tomorrow... lol This is also my first time using my very first MAC brushes. I bought the novel twist brush set and I'm in love with the 219 and 187.

I have tons of pics today. I just loved this look soo much! It's one of my favorites! I actually recorded myself doing this look on my macbook pro. I just need to edit out the junk and make the video shorter. I'll get to it and upload on youtube one of these days lol.


What I used:

Clinique Derma White Eye Moisture spf 15
MAC Charged Water Renewal Defense
MAC Studio Moisture Fix spf 15
Benefit Lemonaid
Everyday Minerals & Alima Minerals Foundation blend
MAC studio fix concealer NC20
