Top 3 Foundations

Here are my top 3 foundations

1. NARS Sheer Glow
 - this foundation is absolutely amazing!! This is the foundation I use on myself everyday. It is light weight but still gives me enough coverage. It definitely gives the skin a dewey effect. I apply this foundation with my hands because you can really work it into the skin that way.

2. MAKEUP FOREVER HD Foundation
- this is the foundation I use in my kit. I have all different shades and use it on everyone. I really like this foundation because it has good coverage without being too heavy. I have yet to use it on someone and not like it. I apply this foundation with a sponge or a foundation brush. I have applied it with my hands before but I prefer the other methods. I like setting this foundation with the MUF HD setting powder.





3. MAC Studio Tech
 - I have this foundation in my kit as well. I only have darker shades of it because I feel this foundation is amazing for dark to very dark skin tones. It has a lot of coverage and can feel a bit heavy if not applied properly. You can thin it out with a primer or just use a lighter hand and it will work wonders. This foundation is also good for contouring and highlighting wet if you use 3 different shades.

Urban Decay Naked Palette Review

 
Last weekend I purchased the Urban Decay Naked Palette at an Ulta while I was in Pittsburgh, PA. I love this palette!! It has a great range of warm, neutral colours that are great for the everyday woman to a professional makeup artist. All of the colours are wearable and go on really nice. The packaging is another plus for me. I usually HATE Urban Decay packaging for their palettes and books of shadows. The Naked Palette fits in my kit perfectly and doesn't have any unnecessary pop out cartoons or anything. As usual Urban Decay includes a mini Primer Potion and they have also added in a black and brown eyeliner. This is definitely one of those palettes that you can grab and go. I would absolutely recommend this product if you can get your hands on one!
