Beauty Tip of the Day 05-28-2010

Does your liquid foundation give you TOO much coverage? Looking for a softer look? Try using a tinted moisterizer. Make-Up Guru, Sam Fine suggests an oil free tinted moisterizer by Laura Mercier (http://www.lauramercier.com/). Another tried and true trick is to mix your current foundation with your daily moisterizer. It doesn't give you as much coverage; giving a more natural look. I do this regularly with HD Velvet Matte foundation and Purpose Oil Free Moisterizer.

I think I may have found my new favorite acne product!

I have VERY oily, blemish proned skin. Like other acne proned sisters, I've tried tons drug store and beauty counter products. I currently use two topical creams prescribed by my dermatologist, but they just don't seem to completely get rid of my acne. Last week I began using Neutrogen's Tripple Action Toner Oil-Free Stress Control. So far, so good! No new pimples.
