The skin glow primer started off as a summer favorite but it has become one of my favorite products. It’s light enough to wear as your last step and provides enough coverage to wear alone. I never leave the house without sunscreen on my face.

Does anyone else base a good mask on how easy it is to get off? I love a mud mask because I like the tight feeling it has as it dries and the satisfaction of getting it off. These are not the mud masks like when I was a kid in the early 90’s, there...

Tarte no longer makes my favorite palette but this is extremely close and actually has all my favorite colors in one. I like a large variety of colors but had a HUGE palette, they are too bulky for me.

I get extremely tan in the summer so shade four is perfect for me, it’s lightweight but still provides coverage. For the fall/winter I’ll probably go down to shade 2 and mix it with the 4 so I still get that golden look.
