Dickinson's Witch Hazel

Recently, I have an allergic reaction and I had few red bumps all over my face. As I was doing my research I came into this product and gave it a try. I bought this in Walgreens and immediately tried it. It has a nasty smell but I can tolerate it. After a week of trying it I am blown away with the results! I noticed that the bumps has flattened and the redness isn't noticeable anymore, after two weeks of using it my skin is now clear. I am using this as part of my daily routine. Iv noticed the my skin is more supple and smooth. I have normal to combination skin with oily t-zones. The oiliness in my T-zones has been minimized.

MAC Face & Body Liquid Foundation

MAC Face & Body with MAC Pro longwear
in Soft Sell (Review to follow)
This by far my favorite foundation by MAC. Its 120ml and its only $33.

Consistency:
You have to shake the bottle to mix the product well. Its runny because it is water based. 


Coverage:
Sheer - Light to Medium, the great thing about this product is its buildable. If you have a clear skin, this is perfect for you. But if you are like me who has few blemishes you need to have to apply the product twice. 


Finish:
It has a dewy finish and I set it with my MAC MSF - Medium. 
My Shade: C4


I find it easier for me to apply it with my fingers but if you are more comfortable with brushes, I recommend using MAC 187. If you are looking for a sheer coverage, this is for you. 



Welcome

Hello there! Thanks for bumping into my blog! I have been wanting to start a make up blog but I have been procrastinating and I don't really know how to make and indepth review and tutorials. Being that said I am going to say it as it is like talking to a friend. I am not a professional make up artist, I am an amateur and the only people I do make up is my sister and mother and ofcourse myself. Ive tried a handful of products and I would like to share my experiences about it. Mostly hit and miss, I am my own guinea pig LOL. Again, thank you for stopping by. Please leave any comments and suggestions. Have a good one!
