NARS Makeup Primer with SPF 20

NARS! UGH! I'm so dissapointed in this one! The primer with SPF 20 was NOT one that I would recommend. It is much too heavy and greasy. I find that it doesn't serve it's purpose well because your makeup can't hold on to anything-its just too slippery! I already have oily skin, but even for someone who is dry, I'm not sure that this is truly the best primer you could find. Perhaps something like Laura Geller's Spackle might be a better fit?

BeautiControl Secret Agent Undercover Foundation



This foundation gets an A in my book! If you need heavy coverage and don't want to look like you're wearing heavy paint this foundation is for you! It's perfect for oily skin, over a moisturizer is amazing for dry skin, and it will stay on all day. I use this product to prime someone with bad acne or uneven skin for airbrush foundation. Once I starting using it on clients I fell in love! It is so easy to blend while it's wet and creamy, but as soon as it soaks into your skin it stays put and is undetectable. If you're jumping off the mineral-makeup band wagon like me, then you don't have to worry about serious breakouts-BeautiControl is a skin-care based company and I would completely trust any of their ingredients! I'm loving it!
