Makeup Monday | Foundation and Concealer Combo

Hey there everyone! Hope you are good. This is a new series we will start, in which every Monday we will upload a Makeup related post.

So without further ado, let’s start.

These are the products I am currently using and have been using for almost a year now. They were recommended to me by an awesome lady at Sephora Florida Mall, Orlando.



Let’s get into what you really want to know.

Foundation

Brand: Smashbox


Shade: 5

Description: it is very creamy but it will not leave you feeling cakey. This is a plus for me because I have combination skin, so I don’t feel too dry in my dry spots or too oily in my T zone. This foundation also has SPF 15 and we all know how important that is. Regarding the coverage, it depends on you and the look you are trying to achieve. It can go from medium coverage to full coverage.

Application: I either use a brush or my fingers… Depending on the look I want
Where to buy it: Felix B. Maduro

Concealer

Brand: NARS


Shade: Medium 2 (Ginger)

Description: again a very creamy product. My under eye area needs the extra moisture but I’d say that you have to be careful with it because you can end up with more than you need in your face. – Nobody likes to have white circles around the eyes -

Application: I have used my fingers to blend this as well as a brush. I have had good results with both methods so I don’t have a favorite one yet.
Where to buy it: I have yet to find a place here in Panamá that sells NARS. If you know, please share.

In case you are wondering, my face brushes are mainly REAL TECHNIQUES by Sam and Nic Chapman and you can find them in an Arrocha near you.
hope you like this post and most important, I hope you find it helpful.

Much Love,

Angie!
