I love Revlon ColorStay and MAC Face&Body for separate reasons; the first photographs beautifully, so it's for when I'm working on photography projects, and I need my subject (i.e. my roommate hehe) to look flawless. The second photographs beautifully as well, but it's more of a personal product, plus it looks so beautiful IRL. I set my foundation with MAC MSF Natural, so that kinda counts lol :DMaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11671620809035977456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6147863230490359852.post-3499818541834288852014-06-19T22:44:57.503-07:002014-06-19T22:44:57.503-07:00Personally, I'm liquid foundation all the way....Personally, I'm liquid foundation all the way. It may be because it is all I have ever really worn, but cream foundations tend to look too cakey on me and powder foundations tend to make me feel dry and accentuate fine lines... but liquid, especially applied with a sponge like a Beauty Blender, is just right :)Maihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11671620809035977456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6147863230490359852.post-12825788629724550112014-06-19T18:45:31.070-07:002014-06-19T18:45:31.070-07:00I ilke all three though it depends on what I'm...I ilke all three though it depends on what I'm wearing them for and the weather.Maihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11671620809035977456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6147863230490359852.post-77999880054426539522014-06-19T13:12:58.130-07:002014-06-19T13:12:58.130-07:00I prefer liquid personally.
