MAKE UP FOR EVER Spring Newbies

At the beginning of March, I had the opportunity to test out the new MakeupUpForEver Spring newbies. I obviously took them with me to Jamaïca. I always feel like testing in extreme weather variation is the best way to create an opinion on a product. First, let's talk about the new MUFE Step 1 Skin Equalizer (43$). I chose the Smoothing and Redness Correcting Skin Equalizer. These products are used as primers to apply before your makeup. I used the MUFE Step 1 Equalizer in Smoothing all throughout my vacation and my skin never looked better. Since being back from the gorgeous beach, I have been leaving the house only with the MUFE Step 1 Equalizer in the Redness Correcting and bronzer on my face. I feel the best when I have a tan, who else feels like this? When applied, the product completely diminished the redness around my nose. The MUFE Skin 1 Equalizer (comes in 10 different variations to target different concerns. What is super cool, is that you can customize your primer by mixing 2 or 3 different types of the product to get your personal primer. Finally, the cream of the crop, the MUFE Pro Sculpting Duo (45$), seriously the best vacation accessory. Just between us, I could have only taken the MUFE Pro Sculpting Duo, the Step 1 Equalizer, a mascara and a red lip on vacay but obviously a beauty blogger always overpacks her makeup bag ;p

Au début du mois de mars, j'ai eu l'occasion de tester les nouveaux produits du printemps de chez MakeUpForEver. Je les ai évidemment apporter avec moi en Jamaïque. Je trouve que la meilleure façon se créer un opinion sur un produit est de les tester dans des variations de climats extrêmes. Tout d'abord, parlons du nouveau MUFE Étape 1 Base de Teint. J'ai choisi la Base Lissante et la Base Correctrice de rougeurs. Ces produits sont utilisés comme bases que l'on peut appliquer juste avant le maquillage. Tout au long de mes vacances, j'ai utilisé le MUFE Étape 1 Base de Teint Lissante et ma peau n'a jamais eu une si belle texture. Depuis mon retour de plage, je quitte la maison seulement avec le MUFE Étape 1 Base de Teint Correctrice de rougeurs et de la poudre bronzante sur mon visage. Je me sens toujours à mon 100% avec un petit bronzage, qui d'autre se sent comme cela? Une fois appliqué, le produit diminue complètement la rougeur autour de mon nez. Le MUFE Étape 1 Base de Teint est disponible en 10 variantes différentes afin de cibler des préoccupations différentes. Ce qui est super cool, est que vous pouvez personnaliser votre base de maquillage en mélangeant deux ou trois types de produits différents pour obtenir votre base personnelle. Enfin, la crème de la crème, le MUFE Sculpting Duo, sérieux le meilleur accessoire de vacances. Entre nous, mon maquillage de voyage aurait pu se limiter au MUFE Sculpting Duo, les MUFE Étape 1 Base de teint, un mascara et un rouge à lèvres, mais évidemment, une blogueuse beauté va toujours emporter plus que le nécessaire ;p

It's Primer Time

As I have mentioned before, when summer arrives, I tend to reduce completely my makeup routine but it's always nice to add a primer for those nights out. I recently discovered the newest primer in the MakeupUpForEver family : the HD Microperfecting Primer. 

This MUFE HD Primer comes in 7 different shades to correct and enhance all different types of skin. 

#0 Neutral: a translucent base for all complexions
#1 Green: minimizes redness (ideal for rosacea)
#2 Mauve: neutralizes strong olive undertones
#4 Caramel: adds a warm glow to deeper skin tones
#5 Blue: gives a porcelain finish to fair skin
#6 Yellow: adds golden tones to dark complexions
#7 Pink: adds brightness and warmth

I opted for the #6 Yellow colored primer. I noticed a difference on the tone of my skin after I applied the MUFE HD Primer. My skin feels really smooth and the primer creates a really nice base for liquid or powder foundation and holds my makeup for the night.

I am slowly getting into discovering the MUFE brand and I 'm sure I will discover many more gems. 
Stay tuned  !

You can now Shop my MUFE Wish List ;)

Clarins Instant Light Base

When summer knocks on our door, I usually ad a primer to my makeup routine. 
But this time the primer hit on my door way before summer and it treated me so well, even through our harsh winter. 

I am talking about the Clarins Instant Light Radiance Boosting Complexion Base.

This product literally changed my face this winter and I am certainly going to keep up the good use this summer. All winter long, I was adding these two different colours of the Clarins Instant Light Base to dose the colour of my foundations and to add the perfect amount of glow. 

Also, a second way and the real utilisation is to apply the Clarins Instant Light Base all over your face, right before your makeup. The darker colour would immediately give me a nice bronzy halo, which would help me look alive and the lighter color was the perfect base for my foundations that are a bit more matte. Either way the Clarins Instant Light Base was and is my foundations best friend. I tried it with liquid foundation, mineral powder, tinted-moisturizer and BBcream and it always give a one man show :)

You must take a peak at these at your nearest Clarins counter !
