I'm Currently Feeling: | Also, for uneven skin tone and breakouts...there is this green concealer from Physicians Formula, I think its about 12 bucks. Put it on the blotchy-ness and redness, then put your foundation over it, and a normal colour concealer....and presto, gone. You have the best skin tone of all time. Also, using a concealer brush helps blend better than your fingers or sponges! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I mostly use bare minerals which I highly recommend. For more concealing, I absolutely love Almay's color matching - starts out white and turns to a shade that matches your skin!! Loveeeeeeeeeeeee it!!! |

Loveeeeeeeeeeeee it!!! | I'm curious over the almay one, i've heard quite a few reviews on it.
I detest mineral make up though, i've had it applied professionally and i've also spent alot of time playing with it myself and i just don't get on with it at all  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Oh don't get me started on foundation,i have had allsorts,and i can never find the right one. I've just bought a new rimmel london cool matte mousse foundation. Sounds brill, looks alright when you open the tub, but when you put it on, errrr it goes on wet, like you've just wiped your face with a baby wipe and let it dry, it doesn't rub in proper either. So i've slung the bugger! I am sick to death of testing new foundations, i just want to stick to the same one.  |

SOOOO true!!!! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I have bought loads of foundations over the years and most of them were  but then I found one, its Estee Lauders 'double wear'. It is expensive at £23 but imo its worth it because a little goes a long way and a bottle of it lasts me at least 6 months. If you go into Boots they have an Estee Lauder counter and just ask about it, ask what colour would suit you and then ask for free samples  thats what I did but then I did go on to buy it. Dont be saddled with a foundation unless you get a trial sample first.
I hope this helps  |
