Finding the Right Shade

Today at school we did the most helpful exercise to help us figure out our perfect foundation color. Everyone had two different colors on foundation put on their face, one very light and one very dark, and their partner had to use their foundation palettes to mix and create two foundations with the two colors to match the skin. It was a lot of fun, and it was such a big help.

I have learned that when testing a foundation to see if it's your shade, put a small amount on your jaw area and wait at least 60 seconds before you determine if it's your shade. This is because foundation actually darkens as it dries, so if you decide if it's your color while it's wet, it will not be the right shade. 

Today we used our Makeup Forever Aqua Eyes waterproof eyeliner, and boy is it awesome! It is so creamy and easy to put on, and it does NOT run off. I washed my hands a while after putting it on, and it was so hard to get off. You do have to be very careful to not make mistakes when you apply it because of how hard it is to get off. It's definitely great for the hot weather, and if you will be swimming, or crying. (Tears of joy of course!)
