LAURA'S REVIEW AND OPINION
I am absolutely in LOVE with this foundation. 
What I usually look for in a foundation is full coverage, and a matte finish not too heavy.
Well this foundation meets all my requirements :) 
COVERAGE: Full coverage it covers all my imperfections. I am 8 months pregnant and currently have dark spots on my face that drive me crazy and this foundation covers them completely. 
TEXTURE: The texture is a mousse like foundation, not thin but not too thick either. It gives a silky smooth finish. 
LASTING POWER: I apply my foundation at 8 a.m. every morning and I usually do touch up in the after noon. But it does lasts on specially if you use a primer and set it with your powder and setting spray.
PRICE: This product is very inexpensive I paid about $6 at CVS. For the quality it actually is, this foundation is very cheap in price and you just can't go wrong with it.
MY COLOR: My color is 200 Soft Beige. It was a perfect match, but always remember that if the foundation is too light use a darker powder if it is too dark use a lighter powder to even things out a bit. This is what I do when it happens to me.
OVERALL: I really like this foundation I have no bad things to say about it. I have been using it for about a month and have not been able to put it down.

Below is a picture of me using the Rimmel Stay Matte Mousse Foundation.
It was around 4 p.m when I took this picture and had applied my foundation about 8am.
I do have a lot of dark spots due to my pregnancy and as you may be able to see it does cover them very well. Check down below for a list of products used.

So  finally added Mac's Ruby Woo Lipstick to my Collection :)
Ruby Woo is a very Matte Vivid Blue-Red Lipstick.
Price $15.00


MY REVIEW/OPINION
I have been wanting a perfect Matte Red Lipstick and now I have it.
Matte Lip Products may dry your lips a bit but with lip balm before usage you should be ok.
The color is very vivid and it lasts quite a long time.
I am very satisfied with this color and will be a must on my KIT.

MAC MSF NATURAL IN GIVE ME SUN



I have stayed away from blogging due to staying away from shopping for makeup.
 I started my collection since 2007.
I accumulated so much makeup specially from Mac that I now have a makeup room.
 I used to get something from every single Mac collection that would launched. I have been away from Mac stores for about 2 years only buying the essentials but nothing else, and I still have so many things to use up. I used to think a Girl couldn't have too much makeup, boy was I wrong. Not only did I accumulate too much makeup I hardly even used any. So it is when I decided to use up what I own :) it is one of the main reason I have not posted much.  

So I took a trip to Mac last night and purchased my so long wanted
Mac's MSF Natural in Give me Sun of course to use as a bronzer.
read and heard so many great reviews about it I just needed to experience on my own.
Boy am I in LOVE!!.



 Mineralize Skinfinish Natural


PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A luxurious domed face powder with minerals slowly baked to provide a dimensional yet natural-matte finish that provides perfect low coverage.
Used to set and fix foundation or as a touch up throughout the day.




COLOR DESCRIPTION
Light Sumer Peach Tan






MY REVIEW
I am absolutely in Love with this product, it gives me that subtle contour and bronzed look.
Not shimmery like most bronzers are.
For reference I'm NC37 in Mac's Studio Fix Fluid.
This color is just amazing.
It doesn't look muddy on my skin, lasts all day for me.
Overall I'm glad I finally purchased this powder and will definitely repurchase again.
