My Personal Makeup Ideas

When looking for makeup ideas, do you know that feeling when you have finally found the perfect combo? I do!!  For years I have been using the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer. She makes a couple different kinds but I love the original. It keeps my makeup on way longer AND keeps my skin looking super smooth throughout the day. Having fairly oily skin, this is perfect for me.  I am always looking for new makeup ideas.

There are some really great silicone based brands but Laura Mercier uses aloe and water and for some reason, it’s perfect!  My skin loves it…. and I have some tough skin.  Even in my thirties, I still have breakouts.  I mean, I am an esthetician, a makeup artist and I still fight acne!!  This product is the best by far, so try it out!  With that being said, I am always on the lookout for new product.  Even though I am loyal to Laura Mercier, I know other people have had great success while using other types, but this is my makeup idea!

Thennnnn, a friend told me about the Make Up Forever foundation. I mainly bought it because she told me Kim Kardashian uses it ☺heehee, but really- it’s amazing. I won’t lie, I love Kim Kardashian makeup ideas and makeup tips!  I get my primer at Nordstrom and the foundation at Sephora. I love both places…..I would even go as far to say, they are a woman’s best friend!

P.S. If you spend $50 at Sephora, you get a free makeup lesson. Book an appointment before you go in and try some new makeup ideas while you’re there. I’m due for another lesson, too.

You’ll have to let me know if you try them!!  Share some of your makeup ideas!!
