Maybelline Fit me Foundation

http://d1535dk28ea235.cloudfront.net/preset_64/maybelline_fit_me.jpg

Maybelline fit me is my HG foundation, I've been using it for a long time, and I absolutely love it. I have bought 4-5 bottles of this shampoo, and haven't dabble to any other foundation.

So I'm going to review it for you guys, so you guys can find your perfect fit!
I will also include some personal tips and tricks ;)
  1. This foundation is Sheer-Medium coverage, but it's very buildable without looking cakey.
  2. It has a great selection of colors, and a lot of them are yellow toned, so it's perfect for my warm ladies.
  3. Its long lasting and Non oxidizing
  4. It does transfer
  5. It gives a flawless dewey finish
  6. This is great for dry skin girlies, i suggest the oily girls go for something else.
  7. SPF for that extra sun protection I love
  8. easy to blend and use
  9. No pump
  10. Cheap and readily available...Dupe of Nars Sheer Glow


    Tips and Tricks
  •  I use this with a stippling brush, to get that soft airbrush feel.
  • Use a mattifying powder if you get a little bit oily
  • Use a layer and then powder it, and then restipple some more if you want extra coverage.

Flawless Face for ANY occassion

Flawless base equals flawless face!
These are the steps I take to ensure I look flawless and stay protected! These are the only products (not all at once) I use and the steps I take.

Step 1:

start with a freshly cleansed/exfoliated face to ensure any impurities/dead skin have been removed! (make sure not to exfoliate everyday)

Products:
Freeman Refining facial cleanser
Freeman Kiwi and Yogurt
Clean and Clear Morning Burst



Step 2:
Moisturize your skin and apply sun screen(skip this step at night). *Always wear SPF30+*

Products:
Ponds Dry skin Cream
Cetaphil Daily Moisturizer - SPF 15
Neutrogena Facial Sun Screen SPF 45


Step 3:


Always prime your face with a primer that works for your skin. It helps your makeup glide on better, and last a lot longer, so you use less product and protect your skin as well.

Products:
Hard Candy Sheer Envy Primer - White


Step 4:

Apply your foundation to get a flawless base, try to use a medium coverage foundation, and only use full coverage if you have horrible break outs or acne scars. Also always use a light hand with foundation, cakey is not sexy. Also try to find a foundation that maximum SPF20. These are great for extra protection and in case you forgot your sun screen. Conceal your dark circles and imperfections, so you don't use a heavy hand with foundation. Or Skip the concealer and use heavy hand with foundation under your eyes.

Products:
Maybelline Fit me- 310 (SPF 18)
Neutrogena Healthy Skin - Natural Tan (SPF 20)
MAC Sculpt - NC40-42 (SPF 15)
NYX Concealer in a Jar - GLOW



Step 5:


woman applying face powder
Apply powder to set your makeup, there are various brands and types of face powder. I use a light hand since I have dry skin, and set my makeup with a big powder brush. I also use a little extra powder on my under eye area!

Products:
Maybelline Dream Matte Powder - Medium (darker medium of the two)







This may seem like a lot of products or steps, but if you use a little tiny bit, and correctly, you wont feel like a cake.
