HELP! My makeup NEVER lasts!

[Anonymous]

I've tried products from A-Z, and somehow my makeup always slips off and the end of the school day. Everything from my base makeup to even my MASCARA doesn't look as good as it did in the morning. I mean yea maybe that's common sense, but is there anything I can do? I use primer sometimes, and sometimes setting spray. Those make a very little difference. Any products I should use? Any method I should be doing? Makeup lovers, please help!!!

Try spraying a setting spray on your foundation brush prior to blending out your foundation. I do this with the Milani setting spray and I get long lasting foundation on my oily skin.

Thank you! I'll really look into this!

I totally agree with the setting powder, primer and setting spray advice you've already received. Be sure that your primer goes well with your foundation. An oil-based primer with a water-based foundation will cause the foundation to break apart (think oil and water when put together). My go to's are Tarte Matte Pourless primer, Laura Mercier Setting Powder and Urban Decay all-Nighter setting spray.

Be sure to find out what primer matches your skin type. Do you have dry skin issues? Do you have oily? Or Combination Skin? When you shop at your local Sephora, get primer samples! This is the best way to find that primer of choice, and don't forget the setting spray. Lastly, I LOVE "BOSCIA blotting linen sheets"!!! Perfect for blotting that excess oil or, in my case, perspiration. Making sure to keep fingers off the face! Which will wreak havoc on your makeup.

Always use a primer and setting spray #1. I suggest urban decay all nighter spray. Also set your Foundation with a setting powder. Mine is laura mercier translucent. Your makeup should stay then.
