Hey ladies! I am back from my honeymoon and figured I would share some of the products that I really liked:
Maybelline gel liner is a gift from the gods! I scored this on sale for around $7 I think and it does not budge. I wore the plum on my wedding day, it is easy to work with and has ultra staying power. I wore it on our honeymoon and it even stayed put while swimming and surfing in the ocean.
Bare Minerals - alright so it took me a little while to find a foundation that did not make me itchy and this was it! (I thought at first I was having a reaction to it but then I figured out it was the cleanser I tried in the store.) I have heard a lot of negative things about mineral makeup and photography and have to say that at least in the case of this brand it must have been a myth. The foundation made me look so natural in our pics and did not cast any kind of weird halo or anything. Love it!
ELF eye primer - another cheap but glorious find... I was about to drop $18 on the urban decay primer and saw this in target for $3 and decided to try it a few weeks before the wedding. It works perfectly - I like to put it on and let it set for about 30 seconds (it is really wet at first) then when it is a little drier I would pat it down with my fingers. This definitely made my eye shadow stay put all day long!
Avon lipstain and glaze - I loved the avon lipstain (pretty much a marker for your lips) and the clear glaze has spf 15 in it (my new everyday gloss!) and I love that it is not sticky at all but ads the right amount of shine to seal in your color
