Here’s a product that I’ve been dying to try: Smashbox Camera Ready BB cream. It comes in five different shades: fair, light, light-medium, medium and dark. I went with shade “light”, which was a bit darker than I would expect but since my face is lighter than the rest of my body, it works for me. Price? $39.00. What I like: it leaves the skin feeling very nice and smooth, evens out the skin tone; it’s moisturizing; it has spf…

I use a few drops on the area that I want to treat…

I can never pass these, because I am the ultimate product junkie (or a hoarder, call it what you will). If I end up not using or liking something, I…
I finally found a foundation that will stay on my skin longer than 1 hour:) Vichy Dermablend Corrective fluid foundation has an awesome coverage but at the same time is surprisingly light. I think I’d compare the coverage to my Estee Lauder’s Double Wear, but minus the super heavy feeling. Main factor that I love about it, is the fact that it actually will last my entire workday, without me having to blot or powder, at the same time it…
