After following my normal face cleansing, and moisturizing regimen, I went on to put on the HD Microperfecting Primer. Initially, this product didn't seem any different in texture from other primers I've tried out. Moving on to the next part, I put one squirt of the foundation (shade-153) on my hand. It was literally a dime size amount of foundation. Initially, I used my fingers to disperse the foundation on to different areas of my face (usually- cheek, nose, forehead, and chin). Then I just fix it up with a foundation brush. Honestly, this foundation went on smoothly and didn't make my face feel caked on at all. I'm not a fan of a think layer of foundation, so I was quite content with the amount of coverage I got for the liquid consistency of the product. It seems like a medium to full coverage foundation, depending on how much you use.
At this point, my skin literally felt like silk. No jokes! After being greatly excited about the results of using these two products, I move on to the HD Microfinishing powder. I thought this powder may make my complexion look lighter, due to the white pigment of the powder. I used my Kabuki brush and brushed this finishing powder all over my face. First off, the brush alone felt like heaven. The bristles were ridiculously smooth. It felt like a cashmere scarf was caressing my face. Secondly, the HD Microfinishing Powder completely added to the softness of my face, and didn't make me look like a ghost. I know I sound like I need a support group for this product. But, one downfall I did find, was the fact that I had a few dry patches here and there- meaning my nose and chin. I have brutally dry skin, that worsens in the winter, and this foundation is probably better for me during the summer.
I know I look like the biggest geek- but at least my skin looks flawless! |
I have these products and I must say that the foundation is amazing. I like that it's buildable and provides great coverage. The face primer-well that's a whole other story. This primer is not good for oily skin. Within an hour, my face is shiny. The loose powder is pretty good, but there is tiny flecks of glitter in it so it makes a shiny face look worse and large pores look larger. I usually end up using a different powder
ReplyDeleteI do like what you are wearing on your lips, what brand/color of coral is that?
