Easy Breezy Face Look

On a whim one day I decided to try this look. I wasn't having the best skin day and wanted to cover up when I was going out. (I usually go face makeup free when I'm not working.) I was pleasantly surprised how well this looked, and how fast it was! I've worn it several times after that day, and wanted to share it with you!

The Makeup:

DermaDoctor DD cream
Stainiac by The Balm
Shimmer bronzer by Model Co.
Mineral Veil by Bare Minerals

What I did was smooth the DD cream all over my face. I made sure to blend it in really well. The DermaDoctor's DD cream is self adjusting, so it adapts to your skin tone. Then I used my kabuki brush, and rubbed that all over my face. This still had some powder foundation on it, so this just continued to even out my face. I didn't even have to get out my powder foundation! Then, I grabbed a fluffy brush and put the shimmer bronzer on. I put it on in a "3" shape on the side of my face. Next, I applied the Stainiac to the apples of my cheeks, and blended that in. I love this because it is a stain, and lasted all day! Then I used the same fluffy brush I used to apply my bronzer, and applied a thin coating of mineral veil to set everything and make the finish flawless.

Honestly, this look took me less than 7 minutes. It lasted all day, I didn't get oily, and I felt great about my skin when I was having a less than perfect day.

Do you have an easy face look that you can apply? What products does it include? Leave me a comment, I'd love to hear from you!

My family likes to save money when we have parties. One way to do so is to cook everything ourselves, instead of hiring a caterer.

Simple Sugars Review

There is no doubt that this scenario has happened to you. You get some really expensive cream to put on your acne, rosacea, or eczema. You try it out, and find out you are allergic to it, or it makes your skin look horrible. Such was the case with Lani Lazzari. She has sensitive skin and has tried every commercial product on the market to help her eczema. Nothing worked, so she took matters in her own hands. She created Simple Sugars in December of 2005. If you're wondering where you might have heard Lani's name before, she appeared on ABC's Shark Tank! The scrubs are all natural and uses many different oils. There are no sulphates, artificial preservatives, parabens, colors, or scents. There are scrubs for your face, body, feet, and even some for the men in your life! You can find your perfect scrub on their website . I wish you could smell this! I bought some at a local retailer and I am impressed! I got the chocolate scent, and let me tell you, it smells AMAZING!...
