face makeup

Hi, I have a gift card to Macys and I am bridesmaid in a few weeks so I want to buy really good face makeup. I think for my wedding I used MAC. Lately I just use covergirl. Someone suggested bare minerals? I want something thats not liquid, not very powdery, something inbetween liquid and powder (unless I am wrong?-You tell me!) and something with staying power! Any suggestions?

Re: face makeup

I would go to the Clinique counter. They have some nice cream compact foundations.

i'm a clinique girl, too! love their "perfectly real" foundation. its a liquid, but its really light and doesn't feel "cake-y" or anything. it lasts all day, too.
i always buy it when they have their "free gift" things- so i end up getting lots of eye shadows, and blushes, and mascaras, and little things of lotion.. all of their stuff has been great.
the other day, i bought a sample set of Bare Minerals new face wash and lotion- and they gave me a little sample of the powder make-up. i liked it, but i just didn't feel like it gave me enough "coverage". especially if you're gonna be in wedding pictures, you might want a little more.

I started using Erase Paste by benefit. For the past two months everyone has been telling me I am glowing. My face looks fantastic.

Re: face makeup

I use MAC Studio Tech - it's a creme based foundation that you use a brush for. Great coverage without being cakey.

If you don't want a creme...try Hello Flawless (it is a powder) by Benefit, sold at Sephora, Ulta, or at any benefit counter. Great coverage if you need, but can be applied lightly as well.

If its for photo/videos etc does it look natural or is it more for heavy coverage?

If your the kinda person who never usually wears makeup then I wouldnt get this for everyday use, but for a special occasion its great cause you dont have to worry about your makeup melting/sweating off.

Its considered mediuim to heavy coverage, its liquid.

I have tried so many products!!! I am in love with bare essentials. It's so light and the coverage is awesome. Lasts me awhile.
