THE FACE | Full Coverage Base Duo

Full coverage base is every girl's best friend! I love how airbrushed and flawless my skin looks, the imperfections are easily hidden, and it looks great on photos! However, full coverage base can either look good or bad depending on the application and products used! One thing I hate is for it to look so cake-y and patchy through out the day. For majority of 2015, I did give up full coverage makeup and went all lightweight and natural looking. But when I reverted back, I knew that I was missing something and that full coverage makeup works best for me!

THE FACE | SUMMER BASE

This year's summer is by far the best I've experienced! The temperature never drops below 20 degrees which I enjoy and with the hope of it lasting for a long time. With this heat, protection is much much needed especially for the face. Not only that, if you're a makeup wearer like me things can tend to slip and slide so a good setting powder is a must to last a day without feeling and looking like a greaseball.

THE FACE | Barely There Base for Acne Prone Skin

Finding a good lightweight foundation for acne prone skin has become a struggle for me. I would find that mosts tinted moisturizers will only give me a hint of color covering almost nothing. Back in the day, I used to suffer from cystic acne where bumps would forever stay in my face making my foundation look patchy and caked up. One other reason I used to stay away from tinted moisturizer is because of my oily skin. At the end of the day, all the coverage have moved / melted away and it's one of the embarrassing thing I've experienced! So I was a massive fan of full coverage foundation, not till later where I started feeling that my skin couldn't breathe.

Protective Summer Base

Now that it is the peek of summer down under, it gets hotter and more humid every day. Finding a foundation that won't slip and slide especially for my oily skin girls is hard. I use the Garnier BB Cream and it works great but the only downside is the color match. It tends to come out real pink against my skin tone, so I put it back to my inventory.
