I apologize in advance if I posted this in the wrong section, this seemed like the most appropriate place to post it!
I don't know how many of you are crazy like me, and wear full-face makeup even when the weather melts it all off by mid-day (like the weather we've been having for the past few days). Regardless, I still use foundation/concealer/powder under the rest of my makeup every single day.
To make the makeup slightly more bearable, this is what I've started doing. When I apply my liquid foundation (it tends to be thick, creamy, heavy- to full-coverage), I mix a dab of it with a dab of light lotion (usually Queen Helene cocoa butter). This not only gets my moisturizing and my foundation done in one fell swoop, but it makes the foundation a little lighter and a little more sheer, and it's easier to blend. This also tends to leave my face very moist and shiny, so I set it with some powder and then do the rest of my face.
