Neutragena Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup

Because I finally ran out of my Clinique foundation, I have returned back to a drugstore favourite of mine! It's the Neutragena Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup. 

This is a really nice drugstore foundation. It has excellent coverage, doesn't break out my skin, can act as a sunscreen (which actually works), lasts all day and has a dewy finish which can easily be mattified with a powder. Thie foundation doesn't dry out my skin either. There are tonnes of shades so that one can easily match your colour. There is no offensive smell or anything. It's a but more on the watery side but that really doesn't affect the performance of this product.

I don't think you can go wrong with this foundation. It's nothing blow-me-away amazing in that I'm breakout free or anything but it is decent and I would recommend it to friends and family. It's a bit on the expensive side at around $13-15 and the open top makes it easy to spill but if you want a really nice drugstore foundation then I would pick this one.

Clinique Stay-Matte Oil Free Makeup

This is my current foundation; I'm the shade 2 Alabaster. I have combination skin but I have used many foundations that are either too dry or too oily. I would have to go out and blot at lunchtime because I had such a shine all over my face. This keeps my face fairly matte, but when I get home after school, I do notice some shine. It's minimal and I don't feel the need to blot, so I don't see a problem. This is also over the course of 9 hours. This makeup doesn't sweat off and with the humidity of the Deep South, it still stays.

It works extremely well with sensitive skin. I don't break out because of it, but I wouldn't say it's improved my complexion. I have noticed a difference in the dry patches of my skin. They are moisturized without being oily.

This foundation is buildable and a light to medium coverage that looks very natural. The formula is lightweight too. It blends very easily and I like that it sits inside of a tube. It's so much easier and cleaner to squirt out than pour!





And the same spot blended out. It looks so intimidating and dark in the picture above...
