Makeup Forever HD Foundation

Hey girls! I'm excited to do a review on this foundation that I bought about 2 weeks ago, and its the Makeup Forever High Definition Foundation. Their has been so much hype about this foundation, such as on youtube and magazines.  I truly believe this is a product that you will either completely love or completely hate. In my case its a Love. Anyways this is what it claims:

"HD Foundation combines flawless coverage and an

extremely natural finish. The Sericite contained in HD foundation

hightens the difussion of light and intensifies the glow of the skin.

Enriched with Relipidium, HD Foundation moisturizes and prepares

 the skin for makeup. Its unusually smooth and elastic texture makes it

easy to apply and a pleasure to wear. Skin texture is refined

to give a very natural complexion."

Well let me tell you that so far what it claims to do, it does! The HD part basically is meant to make your skin look flawless and natural in pictures. I found this to be true when me and a friend of mine were taken random pictures of eachother closeup we are both the same color complexion (MAC NC40) and her face was just coming out super ghostly white very unatural, when my face was smooth and true to color. The foundation contains no SPF, its medium coverage and my color is in 153. I have been wearing close to everyday and I really like it probably more than my NARS which I grew to like after sometime, but thats a whole other story. Anyway, I read in last months Allure Magazine that this foundation is a favorite of Kim Kardashian. True or not, being a fan of her skin it convinced me to finally get it. It goes on super light and smooth, very easy to blend. Will not clog your pores. It gives you a very natural make-up finish. Definetly this is a foundation to try so if your interested visit your Sephora and check it out. Runs for about ($40)

Current *Likes*

So I wanted to show you some things that are my "Current Likes". Meaning at the moment I love them and use them  on a daily or close to.

AVON Bronzer in "Sunset Glow"

 It has been on my cheeks just about everyday this summer. I really love it because it doesnt look to harsh or too dark on me, it gives me just the right amount of color when I want a little "bronzing shimmer."this was about $10

Sephora "Color to go"

Red Limited Edition

So this is a tiny makeup pallete that I picked up at Sephora when I was standing in line to pay. They always get you their! Anyway, I thought it was so cute. I liked all 8colors. You can easily create a simple day look or a more dramatic night look with this.. (They are super shimmery) Swatches:

It comes with a good size mirror that I probably will never use to apply my eyeshadow. When you slide open one side it comes wit the most amazing Blush! I would like to compare it to NARS "orgasm" I love it! I have it on my cheeks right now. When you slide out the other side it comes with 4 lipglosses that I really dont care too much for, but 8 beautiful eyeshadows and an amazing blush for $15! Can't go wrong with that!

Revlon lipsticks in

"Mauve it over" & "Nude attitude"

Two of my most favorite matte lipsticks from Revlon. "Mauve it over" (left) I like to use this lipstick anytime, anyplace. It goes with everything its perfect on my skintone (MAC NC40) Sometimes I top it off with a lipgloss from NYX in "Real Nude". The other "Nude Attitude" (right) I use whenever I do a very smokey dramatic eye, just to tone the look down a bit. Its hard for me to find the right nude because of my skin tone, if its too nude my lips look extra pale, but this so far has got the job done!

NYX Lipgloss in "Real Nude"

This has been a favorite lipgloss of mine for a long time. Its in "Real Nude" and although it is a nude shade it also has a nice pink tone to it that gives my lips a natural yet shiny "juicy" look. I wear it alone or I use it to top off any lipstick. Im addicted to this lipgloss.

Borghese Nail Lacquer in "Rubino Red"

I found this color at CVS a few weeks ago and never really gave it a chance. A few days ago I decided to paint my nails red and grabbed this color and I was really impressed by it. I have had it on for almost 7 days now. I'd like to think of this nail polish as my new favorite Red nail polish...for now.

Sephora Anti-shine Primer

I have been using this anti-shine primer since last week everyday, and so far so good. It feels just like water when you put it on, and typically I wait about 5 minutes before I move on to applying my foundation. Let me tell you this primer has really helped with my shine problem. I can go ALMOST the entire day shine free! Im really in likes with this product, I just hope it will continue to work for me! It ran for about $18.

Kat Vond D Tattoo concealer in Almond- ($26)

Sephora Anti-Shine Primer- ($18)

MAC Viva Glam Gaga lipstick- ($14.50)

MAC Eye Kohl in Smolder- ($14.50)

MAC Eye Kohl in Fascinating- ($14.50)

I went into Sephora last weekend, not really having anything in mind to buy, but I really wanted to check out the new Urban Decay Naked Palette. I really love all the neutral colors that it comes with and surprisingly they had it in stock, but for some reason after debating about it I decided not to get it (at the moment). Instead I decided to browse a little and decided to get a new foundation. I know I'm kinda obsessed with trying new foundations. Since I had heard great things about the NARS sheer glow foundation I decided to give it a try. Instead of the "sheer glow" I went with the "sheer matte". I really liked the way it felt on my skin. Feels really light. I haven't really had a chance to use it and make a full review on this or any of the products I bought from their, but I just know I'm gonna love this foundation. I also got the Sephora base zero brilliance anti-shine primer. This was recommended to me by the sales representative(of coarse)...Its a water based primer that "guarantees" a perfectly matte skin for 8 hours. So will just have to see about that. Last, I picked up the Kat Von D concealer. I know its very thick and can even conceal tattoos, so only a tiny dab on a blemish or under the eyes is needed. I cant wait to try that. I also went into the MAC counter because I needed to pick up two Eye Kohl eyeliners in smolder and fascinating. When I was about to pay I saw the  Viva Glam Gaga lipstick. I know its been out forever, I just never got it until now. Its such a pretty pink shade that really just compliments all skin tones. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this post and I cannot wait to review the stuff from Sephora. Byeee
