“Remember that great makeup starts with great skin. Always prep your skin by putting on moisturizer. The smoother the skin, the easier the makeup will glide on. The last thing you want is for a blemish to become dry and flaky; it’ll be harder to cover up because it will look too textured. If you have a blemish, use a blemish cover stick so you don’t have to use makeup where it is not necessary. Try Face Touch Up Stick —make sure it matches your skin tone, not the blemish. Once you have evened out your complexion by covering up any impurities, dust on some Sheer Finish Pressed Powder to lock the concealer in place. And don’t forget to pack the Touch Up Stick in your purse!”

I once remarked to an influential beauty friend of mine, “Oh, wouldn’t it be nice if a little hand cream existed with a tinted sheer balm packaged into it? How handy would that be?” Lo and behold! She recently informed me that a company, Votre Vu, makes that exact product! Their Bebe Duette comes with richly hydrating (and travel-friendly-sized) hand cream and it packs a punch with a hydrating, sheerly tinted lip balm on the other end. Hooray!
