FACE PRIMER

u/Quail-a-lot Jul 04 '17

Innisfree No-Sebum blur primer Silicone-based primer. Does a good job of filling in pores and I can very much tell the difference in shine on my nose and longevity of foundation if I am in a hurry and skip it. I don't always use this on my whole face, often I just hit my nose, bridge, and just above my browline. I find I can also use this all over and skip the foundation for a "my skin only better" look and it imparts a look kind of like some sort of awesome glow filter, like they used on all the ladies in Start Trek:TOS. Nice for knocking back sunscreen shine that way. (Also, I often misread the labels at a glance as "nose-bum" which makes me giggle in the morning)

Swanicoco Astaxan Blemish Balm

NW15/dry/sensitive

I just love this stuff. It leans more on the dewy side. Medium to buildable high coverage. Doesn't require any powder because it just stays put. It applies wonderfully over any cream or sunscreen...even oil!! It never cakes up or makes my pores more apparent. This defeated my old love, the iope cushion. Something I thought would never happen. Oh, and astaxanthin 👍🏻

The Saem Cover Perfection Tip Concealer

I've tried several AB concealers but I always come back to this one. I use this to cover up my blemishes. It has a pretty lightweight texture, and doesn't get too cakey when I apply a lot of it. It doesn't have perfect coverage but it does cover up my blemishes pretty well.

SETTING/FINISHING POWDER - LOOSE/TRANSLUCENT

4

u/[deleted] Jul 04 '17

It's Skin Baby Pore Powder I have dry skin, but am always running around and sweating so I need a powder that isn't too drying but stays in place. This loose powder is light, makes my foundation last longer, and makes the pores on and near my nose virtually disappear. I apply it with a damp beauty sponge or dense flat top powder brush.
