My relationship with makeup began at a young age because I was in modeling school. That’s when I learned how to apply foundation. My mother knew that I wasn’t going to wear it on a daily basis as a child, so she didn’t buy anything really expensive. We basically just used the drugstore brands. We could never find a foundation that perfectly matched my complexion or skin type. I have very oily, acne-prone skin. So not only do I have to find something that matches my complexion, I also have to find a brand that caters to my skin issues.
I do some on-air appearances for my job and get to work with a lot of makeup artists who have gotten my foundation right; but I’ve found that they have to use a combination of things to get the color to match perfectly because of discoloration.
The Fix: I’d never used powder before but loved the Sephora Collection Matte Perfection Powder Foundation shade 42 in warm tan that was used on my skin. I noticed that when I use liquid foundation for my oily skin, it sometimes oxidizes a little; the powder was definitely a better option. It’s very lightweight and didn’t irritate my acne-prone skin. It also gave me a really nice matte finish.
Brand: Sephora Collection, Matte Perfection Powder Foundation: A soft-matte, long-wear foundation with buildable, medium to full coverage, in a creamy powder foundation, with weightless, buildable coverage, that flexes and moves with the skin, and has a natural-matte finish.
