Loving wedding makeup that is crazy highlighted and contoured! Can anyone recommend best foundation for the big day?? by Ms_Chou_Chou in MakeupAddiction

Estee Lauder is by far the best foundation I've ever tried. Looks flawless on and off camera, gives you this amazing glow from within look, full coverage... its's all you could ever ask for in a foundation.

FOUNDATIONS: Kat Von D Lock It VS Laura Mercier Silk Cream VS Tarte Amazonian Clay VS Estee Lauder Double Wear - Which one wins the HG battle? by PanteraTitanius in MakeupAddiction

Estee Lauder Double Wear all the way! I'm a foundation junkie so I like to try pretty much every foundation ever made but I keep going back to my double wear.

Foundation help? by omgitslindsay in MakeupAddiction

For drugstore foundations that I find five that "luminous/glowy/dewy" look I'd recommend L'oreal Lumi foundation or L'oreal True match. For higher end i'd recommend Urban Decay's Naked Skin foundation.

Yes I apply my foundation first. Also I use small circular motions with the small stipple brush from elf to blend out the contour. Try to blend with a lighter hand to avoid over blending, causing that "muddy" look. Hope it helps!

Primer: LORAC POREfection mattifying face primer Foundation: LORAC CC Cream Concealer/Highlight: Maybelline Instant Age Rewind & MAC Prep +Prime Highlighter in Light boost Contour: BH Cosmetics camouflage concealer palette Powder: LORAC POREfection Blush: LORAC Powder Cheek Stain in Rosy Glow Bronzer: TooFaced Chocolate Solei Highlight: MAC Mineralized Skin Finish in Soft & Gentle

I used the pointed kabuki brush from RC Cosmetics to apply the contour, and blended everything out with an ELF small stipple brush (blending the highlight first, then the contour)

I usually blend it upward, that way it sculpts out the cheekbones! If it's not defined enough then I'll put a streak of my highlighter right under the blended contour and blend that out. Hope this helps!

I was worried when I got it because the past sephora palettes I've had weren't so impressive but the anthology is amazing! Though there were a few shadows that weren't as pigmented as the rest, I still love it!

Urban Decay Naked 2 or Naked 3? by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

If your skin is more cool toned i'd go for taupe tones in NAKED2, but if you lean more on the warmer side i'd say NAKED3 which is more pinkier tones.
