I have really sensitive skin so I usually can’t wear makeup for more than 4 hours before a break out starts. I’ve spent years searching for products that will cover my blemishes as well as prevent me from more breakouts and new blemishes. When I find something, I hold onto it and I have a couple of products that work for me. Everyone’s skin is different. You just have to find products that work for YOU. For the past few months the weather has taken a complete toll on my face. I’m not a big makeup person unless I’m hosting an event or getting camera ready. I usually like the natural looks that can be easily done and look fairly simple. Here are four stable products I never leave the house without:

1.  Dior Maximizer Primer

 love this primer because it’s very light on the skin and it instantly brightens dull complexions, sculpts the face, and amplifies the skin’s natural light for spectacular radiance. Sometimes I add a little before I apply my foundation or afterwards. Do you want to try Dior Maximizer Primer? You can buy this product for only $42 at Sephora.
2. Cover FX Total Cover Cream Foundation

 

I have this really weird undertone so it’s always hard trying to find my color. You can get this one for $42 at Sephora as well. My perfect match is N80. My skin has yet to break out from this product and I’ve been using it for about a year now. I’m not saying I haven’t broken out in a year. I have, but not from using this product. It gives me great full coverage. Also, M.A.C. added a new color to their foundation that matches my skin perfectly. NC47 is ecerything!
3. Maybelline Great Lash Extension

Enhance, enhance and enhance. Great and cheap(in price not quality). You can get this at Walgreen’s, Target, CVS or Wal-Mart starting at $5.99.
4. Mac Viva Glam V
I love this lip gloss! Mac has lip gloss available in a wide variety of colours, so you never have to worry about not finding the right color! Mac Viva Glam V is my everyday color. It’s a nude color that you can wear to work, the gym, going out or even when your going out with a hot date. Another thing I love about this lip gloss is that it can last for up to six hours! I dont have to worry about it fading away or drying out before I have a chance to reapply. Looking for a that shine to amaze your friends and that possible boo thang, grab your gloss at any MAC store for only $20!
