When tumblr was down on Friday I was forced to use Pinterest. I have to admit that there is an incredible amount of awfulness running rampant on that site. I saw a makeup tip about using some sort of baking powder (!) to set makeup and fend off oil and shine throughout the day. I’m not so sure aboutthat, but it certainly sounds like a brilliant way to wake up with a face that looks like one massive zit.
I have always struggled with the mid-day melt. Well, for me, it’s about 10 a.m. when my face slides off. HOWEVER, I have been saved by one of my newest, most favorite makeup purchases, Make Up For Ever HD Microfinish powder. The Kardashians made the foundation from this same line famous. Obviously I tried it and I’ll admit it was OK, but it’s not on the same level as this powder.
I apply this by sort of rolling it under my eyes with a puff and other places on my face where I’ve used concealer and it instantly tones down, evens and sets my makeup. I focus more under my eyes and then let it sit before dusting off the excess product. I apply a small layer over my entire face with a MAC 182 brush to finish the look. And that’s it… my makeup stays all day with minimal touchups required.
