MAC Prolongwear Concealer

 Pro Longwear Concealer
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A lightweight fluid concealer that provides medium to full coverage with a comfortable,
natural matte finish. Colour-true formula lasts up to 15 hours.
Helps conceal and correct the look of under-eye circles, and discolorations.
Comes in a clear glass vial with a matte black pump.
Price $18.00 US

MY REVIEW
I have been wanting to try this concealer for such a long time now.
Now that I finally got it I have developed a Love and Hate relationship with it.
Although I love the coverage, I hate the way it intensifies my fine lines under my eyes, something I had not experienced with other concealers this much.
I really wanted to love this concealer for under my eyes.
I do like how it lasts on my cheeks as if it was foundation, I don't feel the need of touching up,
but for under my eyes it was just not for me.
BUMMER!

If you guys have any tips on how to apply this concealer please run them thru me as I don't want to have to take this one back to Mac.

Thanks for Stopping By!

NOTD-WnW Fergie in Fergalicious

I saw the display at CVS and just had to get these polishes.
I got them in the colors below
Glowstick, Fergalicious and Miami Spirit
 
Of course I had to try the pink one first.
I have been wanting a hot pink nail polish and here it is.
I love Wet n' Wild nail polishes because they are so easy to apply due to their brushes,
I love those brushes it makes it faster to polish your nails and it gives and even and nice coverage.
The color Fergalicious is a vibrant hot pink, two coats and my nails looked so nice.

Formulated without preservatives, it glides on with no tacky feel and is suitable for all skin types.
Simply shake well before use and apply an even layer all over your face. Less is more.
Price $23.00

MY REVIEW
I have not been wearing liquid foundation lately since here in LA the weather is crazy hot.
I have only been using my Artistry Ideal Dual Powder Foundation and although I love this powder for that full coverage it provides me, I have been experiencing non staying power as much as I am used to just with moistourizer under my powder. I needed to find a great face primer and started my hunt.
I have been hearing alot about Bare Essentuals Prime Time and thought it may help me since my foundation is a powder formula for now.
I went to get a sample and fell in love I had to go back and buy it.
It does create a flawless finish, it does seem to control oil and it does make your foundation last and stay put longer.
The texture is similar as the Smashbox Photo Ready Primer that silicone feel but a little lighter not too thick as Smashbox, do not get me wrong Smashbox Photoready is one of my favorite primers out there. I just wanted to try something different.
On application it does not ball up on your skin.
It absorbs to your skin quickly making it easy to apply foundation.
One pump is enough for my whole face, if you apply too much you may experince balling up on your face.
I really did like this primer alot and will definetly keep buying it.
I hope this review is helpful to you guys.
