Flawless Matte Makeup Look {rimmel stay matte challenge}
As much as I love the warmer weather, the first spring heatwave inevitably means I have to change my entire beauty routine. My normal skin from winter turns into a disgusting oily mess in addition to my normal breakouts and redness. Let’s just say that my skin hasn’t been looking so hot lately, so I need a full-coverage foundation that will mask my imperfections and control my oily T-zone. I’m proud to say that I have found a new favorite foundation for the warmer months. Rimmel Stay Matte mousse foundation meets all of my requirements plus it’s one of the least expensive foundations I’ve ever bought!
The liquid mousse texture is packed with pigment, so the foundation hides your imperfections while still feeling lightweight. In addition to creating a flawless canvas for the rest of your makeup, this foundation provides the perfect matte finish. Despite my combo-oily skin, most matte foundations leave my skin looking dry and cake-y; however, Rimmel’s Stay Matte foundation controls my oily skin and eliminates shine without looking flat or dry. Honestly, what more could you ask for in a foundation?
This before-and-after picture shows how the foundation easily conceals small blemishes, discoloration, and redness. In addition to evening out your skin tone, I like to apply a small amount of the foundation to my eyelids as an eyeshadow base.
When you have flawless skin, you don’t need to pack on too many additional products. Lately, I’ve been adding a light bronzer, rosy blush, rose gold eyeshadow, tons of mascara, and a touch of pink lipstick to brighten my complexion. I only apply a small amount of translucent powder to set my t-zone, but I don’t find that I need to touch up my foundation throughout the day! Even though the weather has been in the 80s this week, I haven’t looked shiny at all! Let me know if you would like to see a step-by-step tutorial for my go-to spring makeup look!
If you’re looking for a new full-coverage foundation, I’d highly recommend stopping by your local drugstore and picking up the Rimmel Stay Matte mousse foundation! It’s incredibly affordable, and it provides great results. Plus, flawless skin means flawless pictures- aka every girl’s dream.
