Beauty Blogger Challenge
Uncategorized June 17th, 2010
I know you’re out there, beauty fanatics!
And I come to you with a challenge!
It’s finally time for me to graduate to a tinted moisturizer this summer. After a full year of treatment with Accutane, Minocin and a bajillion special face creams, my skin is finally getting clear. I’m going barefaced on weekends and at home, but I’m not brave enough to do it all the time at work.
I have rosacea, which means I have some redness in my skin, and it flares up when I get hot, excited, have a drink, blah blah blah so I still want to keep a little bit of coverage to even my tone out.
I am looking for a tinted moisturizer or other product that will address most or all of my needs. But does it exist? I don’t know! I’ve never bought something like this before so I don’t know where to start.
Can you make me some product recommendations?
Needs:
- lightweight, but with ok blending/coverage/something to even out the skin tone
- MUST have an SPF
- Not greasy or difficult to absorb (my skin is still a little oily)
- Preferably with mattifying ingredients so I don’t get greasy half way through the day
- Not overly expensive. I don’t know what the average price range is, but I don’t want anything too cheap (like Covergirl) but nothing over $20 if possible
- Won’t rub off or run easily. I’m a sweaty Betty.
- Needs to be a good colour for me – I am around an NC20 in MAC shades
I would say that SPF, staying power and price are my top 3 “must-have’s”. I want to feel as though I am wearing nothing. My mineral makeup is great, but it’s still a little heavier than I would like.
So can you tell me about your favourite product, or what you would recommend for me? Even if you’re not a beauty blogger, what is the product you just rave about to your friends?
I want to know!
