My First Tutorial

I bared it all for you. Without any make up, my skin looks like a mess with my active break outs and my scarring. I wanted to show you a start-to-finish tutorial so you can see how make up can really do wonders.

Even though the DiorSkin Forever foundation is a medium to full coverage foundation, I was able to use the Sonia Kashuk Synthetic Buffing Brush control it. I buffed the product into a light veil on my forehead, nose and tops of my cheeks so you could still see my freckles. I believe the product layered well to achieve full coverage along my chin and scarring on my cheek.

I used the Illamasqua Blusher Brush #1 to apply the Chanel Soleil Tan de Chanel. 

I will do a post/video on my favorite brushes soon.
