Beauty Product Reviews
Love!
This is a great product to mix with any liquid foundation, just alone as a highlighter or on your eyes! It's super concentrated so I would use less than a dime size drop. I like to pat it on my cheek bones for a gorgeous glow. Its about $24 and goes a long way! It comes in 3 shades, Flash is my favorite!
Not all that great :/
I've used this is clients and have found it takes about 10-15 minutes to dry after application. Thats precious time I could be using to work on eyes! Overall, I just am not crazy about the formula and its application. I think because it's silicone base, it doesn't hold as well. This system is great for beginners because it's super easy to spray and there isn't any color mixing needed.
I do love the Dinair airbrush! A little more difficult to use but takes practice! I find it dries right on contact (because its water based!) and gives more of a natural, flawless look. I definitely prefer this over the temptu!
Makes skin gorgeous!
Top favorite liquid foundations are the MUFE HD and this Cargo foundation. Feels incredibly great on the skin and gives even, full coverage. Wide selection of shades! I have semi sensitive skin and have never had problems... Also never heard any complaints from clients. I have had a couple clients with Rosacea who felt the BE mineral foundation wasn't giving enough coverage... of course not! Using the Cargo first then finishing with their BE mineral foundation completely concealed the redness! It's great for dry skin and gives a beautiful dewy and glowing look. With oily skin, I would finish with a light powder but it still looks great!
Hands down favorite bronzer!
Don't get me wrong, MAC has great bronzers but I love the texture and packaging from smashbox! It's a gorgeous shade to contour with or just use on the cheeks. Unlike other dome shaped or baked bronzers that always crack and break, you only have to twist the cap in order to shave a little. This helps save any powder from waste and controls the amount you apply to your brush. I use this with the Cargo magic brush.. give a smooth and even application. Love this!
My top two favorite eye primers is the urban potion and photo finish! With this primer you only need a tiny bit. Im not crazy about the application wand so I apply it to my hand then apply with fingers or a concealer brush. Long lasting with shadow or wear alone with foundation over it to prevent oil and hide veins.
