Makeup Forever Step 1 Skin Equalizer- Mattifying Primer Review

Hey Guys I have another product review for you guys today.

I ended up picking this up from Sephora to try out. I have combo to oily skin so I wanted to give it a try mainly for my T-zone.

This product is $37 30ml OR $17 for 15ml

Details:

STEP1 is the range of skin equalizers developed to refine, smooth and even out. Our exclusive Equalizer Complex delivers 3 key actions:

- APPLICATION : makeup goes on seamlessly

- RESULT : optimized color & finish

- WEAR: longer staying power

MATTIFYING PRIMER is the answer to unwanted shine, fighting against excess oil to ensure a matte makeup result. Formulated with our specific Sebustop Vegetal Complex, this first step equalizer instantly reduces pore size and controls shine for a flawless makeup all day long.


My experience with this Primer:

OK guys so this primer is no joke, when it says it's mattifying it's mattifying like big time.
Now I just use it on my extreme problem areas I ended up picking this up from Sephora to try out. I have combo to oily skin so I wanted to give it a try mainly for my T-zone. The product comes out a clearish creamy color and had no scent, which I really appreciate.

This product immediately removes any type of shine to your skin. It is easy to blend and lasts a very long time. Makeup really does apply seamlessly over this product. I am very impressed with it. Honestly my only negative remark about this is if you have mature skin I'd avoid it. I notice that I can't wear it on my forehead where I have most of my wrinkles because it doesn't fill them in like pore filling type primers. It makes those forehead wrinkles very noticeable. I have strictly started applying it to my nose, and the areas surrounding my nose for that very reason.  Those with extremely oily skin can really benefit from this primer. I will continue to use it to prolong my makeup and avoid looking overly oily.

Side note: I have extremely sensitive skin and this did not clog my pores or break me out!

I do recommend this but only if you are oily!

Thanks for stopping by today.

August 2015 Monthly Favorites!

Hello lovelies how are you all doing today? I can't believe it's already Monthly favorites time. Today is the last day of August, like my goodness, this year is going by so quickly it's insane!
Anywho here are my monthly favorites, yep and one repeat from last month. I've been wearing it so much that it had to make another appearance.

Let's start with what I think is my new favorite all time candle from Bath and Body Works COCONUT LEAVES...OMG its AMAZING! This sent is delish!
It says that it's A Tantalixingly tropical mix of coconut milk, macademia nuts and fresh grren sugarcane.

Next up is the Makeup Forever Pro Finish Powder in  the shade 120

This is such a beautiful powder. I get extra oily in the summer months, and I love that I can throw this into my purse and touch up whenever I feel I need it without looking like a cake face. It is so soft and smooth, it's a must have product.

Next up we have Maybelline Dream Bronze BB

Next up is the Lorac Heartbreaker palette. Click here to see a full review. This is the perfect summer palette. It's been fun.

Another must have summer item is this Maybelline the Falsies Flared waterproof mascara.
I have some pretty stubborn lashes that always point straight down. I use waterproof mascara year round to get them to stay up and pretty. I like this mascara a lot.

I try not to do repeats but somehow this one snuck in. I just love this color so much! It's the NYX butter lipstick in BLS17 POPS EXPLOSIF. The formula is so creamy and soft it's such a beautiful lipstick.
Next up is the Wet n Wild Contouring Palette in Caramel Toffee

This is such an inexpensive beautiful product, I plan on doing a full review very soon on this so please stay tuned. Just a heads up, it's SO worth checking it out!

Ok the last favorite for this month is the REVO lip balm in Strawberry!

I honestly think this is my new favorite lip balm of life. If it wasn't for me owning a ton of lip balms I would buy more of these. I completely plan on buying more when I get done with the rest I have. If you haven't tried them, do it! They do not disappoint!

Ok my loves, I am SO excited for September as it brings with it the fall season, my absolute favorite time of the year!
