Hi, Karen!! So I wanted to know, besides staying consistent with a skincare routine, would you recommend anything for dull skin? I don't get crazy breakouts or anything, but my skin tends to get dull and sometimes dry. I'm looking for that hydrated, supple skin just like yours!

Hey Girl thanks so much! I away recommend preping the skin before, blot any excess oils. Then using POREfessional primer tap on to the nose and if throughout the day your nose decides to be stubborn blot of excess oils and apply powder in pressing motion!

Thanks so much i appreciate the love 🙂

Its all about your tools i highly recommend investing in a great kabuki brush and beauty blender fur sure! Pressing product into the skin and finishing with a great setting spray such as Urban Decays All Nighter!

Hi beautiful ❤️🤤 What  translucent Powder should I use for  flash pictures? 

[marrriuxi]

Hiiii Karen for starters luvvv luvvv you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ !! Oli and Sebas too !! 

My question would be how can I keep my makeup looking flawless and long lasting , ive tried many setting sprays but I can't find the right technique I guess... and what can I do so my makeup won't rub off my "t" zone?? 

Thank you so much !!!!! 💕

I want to know, what's the best way to get rid of the loose powder that ends up in your hair line? When I bake my face with the Laura Mercier powder, when I dust it off it ends up in my hair and it makes it look like I have white hair. please help.

If time was limited to get ready, What 5 benefit products would you choose to create a natural look?

[VeeLove]

Hi beautiful Karen! I know everyone's skin is different, but what's your best secret to get rid or diminish the look of a pimple?! Also, how would you go about concealing redness that goes along the upper cheeks and bridge of the nose? Currently I do- moisturizer, primer, color correct with green or yellow (depending on how red I am) THEN foundation, followed up by concealer to brighten my under eye. Sometimes I feel like it's TOO much product in that redness area so I'll end up with cakey looking skin or as if it's peeling... HELP!! Thank you, and I love you MUCHO! BESOS!!

What is your best recommendation for a daily (am) eye cream? Something that helps with puffiness, dryness and fine lines. Thank you in advance!
