5 Make Up For Ever Products I Absolutely Love

If you didn't know, now you do... Make Up For Ever is easily one of my favorite brands on the market. http://makeupforeverusa.com

Not only do I use it on myself but I use specific products on clients as well, depending on the nature of the look or shoot. Here are 5 Make Up For Ever products I absolutely love. 

HD Foundation- Long wear, sweat proof. Ultra light with rich coverage. I recently recommended it for a professional ballet dancer who I just worked on. It retails for $42 at Sephora and one bottle will last for a while. Shop Here



HD Finishing Powder- If you haven't tried this, you need to. It's like nothing you've ever felt on your face before. It somewhat has that "silicone" slip feel... absolutely amazing. My only beef: It's kind of pricey for how quickly I go through it. I'll write a follow up post on comparable products that are a tad bit cheaper (I've got a great alternative to this powder!) Retails for $32 for the bigger 0.3 oz jar Shop Here


5 Camouflage Cream Palette- 5 Tone correcting concealer shades that hide any flaw. Red cheeks and dark under eye circles don't stand a chance. And the best thing about it- It's totally blendable. This is another products that you'll have for a while, even with everyday use. Pro Tip: apply concealer under foundation for longer wear. Retails for $38 Shop Here



Sculpting Kit- a duo of powder, light and dark that are perfect for highlights and contours. Easy to blend and light weight. Retails for $48 Shop Here


AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST... 

Aqua Brow- Formally known as Brow Fix, this product is my number one cosmetic go to that I use EVERY SINGLE DAY. Completely water proof and sweat proof, your brows will look fabulous even after a couple hours in the pool. The best part, it'll come off with ease at the end of the night with any standard face cleanser or makeup wipe. One tiny tube has lasted me well over a year and counting. Retails at $20 Shop Here

Contouring

Knowing how to contour and highlight is MAJOR. A highlight is going to bring out a feature and contouring with a darker shade is going to push it in. Makeup is all smoke and mirrors!! Anyone can have a strong jawline and beautiful high cheekbones! The picture below shows some really great highlight and contour points. Keep a look out for a follow up post where I'll go into more detail.
