Back to pretending to be a beauty blog. Not my fault nothing Disney related has happened yet.
So day two went off without a hitch. I got up early enough and got my face all perfected in 9mins and 5secs. Overall I was pretty happy with how it went but I found that my foundation was still doing the weird cracking thing despite me moisturising and priming.
Day three I decided it was time to go shopping. I headed to Priceline (give me a break I'm still on a saving budget, remember) and picked up these nifty little tools.
The Models Prefer Stipling Brush ($17.99) and the Australis Make-Up Finishing Spritz ($13.99, I think).
I'd been told after consulting the internet that the stippling brush helps to spread foundation more evenly which prevents streaking and gives you a flawless finish. The Finishing Spritz works as a setting spray and makes sure your make-up stays in place. I had it described to me as 'hairspray for your face'.
And boy was it worth it. After my five hours at work and a few hours around the house my foundation still looked almost exactly the same as it did when I put it on. It was amazing.
Next things I'm thinking of trying out are an eye primer (for the slight creasing around my eyes) and a correction pallet (to try and cover my red/purple pigmentation). I'll let you guys know how they go when I can afford them.
