Maybelline Matte + Poreless // Foundation Review

Maybelline Matte + Poreless // Foundation Review 


This is an oldie for sure. I use to love this foundation as a teenager and then forgot about it once I started using more high-end options. I bought this a few months back and I'm not sure what products I used with it, but while applying this it looked so awful I completely wiped it off and restarted my makeup. I threw it in the drawer and thought "what was I thinking back then?!" 
Fast forward to now and other beauty influencers are still raving about this drugstore foundation. In particular, Desi Perkins, who always has the best foundation application going on. I decided to try this out again. Not sure what changed, but it applied great! The coverage was there. I actually poured out way too much product! This shade matches me nicely and this wore amazingly! I've been keeping around my forehead more natural and letting the freckles show through, but I worked up the coverage in other places that to me was full coverage! After setting spray this melted into my skin and looked gorgeous. At around the 5 hour mark I did have to dab a little around my creasing prone areas (nose and chin), but besides that it looked great! You probably know by now that my main goal with a foundation is the 8 hour mark. If it can hold up that long, then I approve. The 8 hour mark with this foundation wasn't the absolute best. I feel like you do have to touch up at least once through out the day if you need a full 8 hour wear, but it still wasn't the worse especially for drugstore. I had a video to film so I took this off right at the 8 hour mark, but with a touch up I feel like this could work for even longer! I love the subtle matte finish and how soft my skin looks in photos. I had the same results of using a sponge or round top brush to apply this as well. I'm super impressed with this throwback and will continue reaching for it. 

 My Shade: 110 porcelain 
This foundation is a 9/10 for me! 
The Maybelline Fit Me! Matte + Poreless Foundation is $7.99
You can find it at Ulta.

Tower 28 Beauty | Makeup

 To the brand that has opened my eyes to a creative outlet while thinking of my skin all the time. Tower 28 Beauty has proved to me that you can have fun with makeup while taking your skin into consideration the entire time. While it's still fun to dip into all my other makeup I have found so much joy in my lightweight makeup ways. The shift happened after trying more cream products and Tower 28 has been one of them. I eyed the beauty of this brand for a while and then took the plunge with their cream bronzer, Bronzino in the shade Sun Coast (the lightest to go with my fair complexion), Beach Please Balm Blush in the shade Power Hour , and a couple of their ShineOn Lip Jellies (Almond & Cashew) .  Their creams are balms so you get a full shine to your look. They not only make your skin look glossy and healthy but also vibrant with the pigment. The blushes really pack a punch in pigment and can be worn as a flush of color or built-up. The bronzer is a little less pigmented th

Beauty Tuesday

For my first " Beauty Tuesday", I thought I would start it off with my May Ipsy bag. If you're not familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly subscription bag with 4-5 full and/or sample size beauty products. This June marks two years that I've received a bag. Even though some bags are hit or miss, I've continued to be subscribed so I can try out new items. I feel like Ipsy has really upped their game this year and I've loved every bag I've gotten. I'll be sharing my bag with you every month with my own personal review of the bag itself, and each product in it. I'll also blog about how certain makeup wears, feels, and my own opinion of the product. The same for skincare products, and how they work with my skin type.  I hope you enjoy my May 2017 Glam Bag (If you're interested in subscribing to Ipsy's monthly Glam Bag, I'll post the link down below). I'm more into Ipsy for the actual products and not the bags, but I'll admit the ba

Alamar Cosmetics Spanglish | Makeup

I've been loving Alamar since it started and I love to see how far they have come. It's an indie brand I will always recommend so to then get their products in Boxycharm or Boxy Pop Up sales its a win win! That's how I got my Spanglish palette . You can already see this is an Ally palette by the purples! It's a gorgeous one with buttery mattes and stunning metallics. I also appreciate the subtle browns while also having the pops of color too. I found the color story pretty, but also odd. It's not one you see a lot but it does work. I have also found myself creating unique shades by mixing shades together. It's definitely a cute summer moment that you won't be disappointed with.  Swatches left to right: Pero Like, Eres Un Show, Tiene Swing, Guao, Ay Que Cute, Jajaja, Muy Excited, & Ponte Hyper.  Did you miss these blogs?  Lizzie McGuire x ColourPop | Makeup KVD Beauty Edge of Reality | Makeup Beautbean x Shroud It's Freakin' Bats | Makeup I als
