Hi everyone,
A few months ago I was looking to buy a new foundation and due to the fact that I read so many great reviews about Make Up For Ever HD Foundation I wanted to give it a try. I went to the Make Up For Ever Studio decided to buy a new foundation and take a closer look to their new products (read all about it here).
I have an oily complexion type so I was looking for a oil-free foundation that can give me a matte finish. The makeup artist recommended me the HD Foundation in 117 Marble (for light skin with yellow undertones). The foundation is available in 25 shades to suit all skintones so I’m pretty sure you can your find your own shade. I’ve tested the foundation on my face and I was pretty happy with the shade and the light texture. At that time my face was clear, I had no breakouts or pimples so I couldn’t test the coverage very well.
They say it will cover skin imperfections flawlessly and create a soft-focus effect. After testing it, my complexion had a natural glow, not really matte but I was thinking about the cold winter weather at that time and the makeup artist suggest that will have a more mattyfing effect when the temperatures are low.

Hola chicas!
I’ve bought the Make Up For Ever All Mat a couple a months ago when exhibition with beauty products was hosted in my city. All of the products prices were reduced by 20-25% so I went into a shopping spree.
One of the products that I bought was this face matifying primer based on a oil-free powdered gel gel that is colorless and extremely comfortable to wear. I already had the Lancome La Base Pro (read my review) makeup primer but I wanted to try something from MUFE.
I have an oily complexion so a matifying primer is a must for me and I assure you that the effects of using a face primer before you apply the foundation are really amazing.
If you are interested to know more about this Face Matifying Primer keep reading this review (more photos, price, details). Continue reading ‘Review: Make Up For Ever All Mat – Face Matifying Primer -Photos and Details’

Hi Girls!
Today I went to Make Up For Ever (MUFE) professional beauty shop decided to check out their goodies and to buy a new foundation. Almost 2 months ago I’ve bought All Mat Face Matifying Primer (I will review it shortly) from Make Up For Ever and since I was so pleased with it I’ve decided to buy the foundation from the same brand.
The shop was not very big (almost the size of my living room) but full with all the products of the new collection and makeup accessories. When I entered the shop the 2 makeup artists present there were very polite and they offered to help me right away. It was a pleasant surprise to see that they have makeup artists in the shop instead of beauty sellers like in other beauty shops and let me tell you that the difference was huge. They were really aware of all the products in the shop (at least of all that I’ve asked for) and they could also help you with makeup tips and advices . After checking out some of the new products I’ve stopped to look at the HD foundation and one of the makeup artist was glad to help me out.
I told her that I’m looking for a new foundation (for oily skin) and she invited me to take a seat at the makeup table, where she will test some of the foundation on my skin. Here was the first difference (in the positive way of course), because working with clients all the time she really knew what I needed and showed me the only 2 foundation fit for my skin type.
Since I knew that I was going to look for a foundation I didn’t put any makeup on my face (only mascara and lipgloss) so she started by testing the Mat Velvet Matifying Foundation (for oily skin type) after she used a makeup cream removal. Maybe in other countries is normal that when you are shopping for a foundation a makeup artist should assist you and test the foundation on your skin, but believe me that here this is not happening (most of the times sellers try the products on their own skin) and this was the first time when I’ve experienced this in my country and I felt great. I definitely told to myself that I will comeback since they were so professional in choosing the right shade especially since I’ve never tried their foundations before.

Hello Ladies! We already know that purple is the “new black” this Fall. Being part of the actual trends, this shadow is included in most of the 2009 Fall Makeup Collections. It’s also one of my favorites eyeshadows colors and it adapts to all complexions and all hair colors. The trick consist in finding the right dose and depending on its intensity, purple can cover a range of very strong colors from taupe-like purple to pink and periwinkle. It’s also a very nice shade that goes well with bronze or turquoise. You can play with these combination and create a look that will give the eyes a greater depth and mystery.
Today I’m going to show you step by step how you can achieve the Make Up Forever Fall 2009 Look.
The “must haves” for this look are the violet and steel gray eyeshadows and the Aqua line waterproof pencils.
COMPLEXION
Apply HD Primer Pink # 7 ( $32 ) to freshen up the complexion. This primer will nourish and moisturize your skin making it soft and glowing and in the same time creates a barrier effect so that the foundation will not be absorbed by the skin. The HD Primer has an non-oily finish so this mean that you don’t have to wait a few minutes before applying your makeup.
Then use the HD sponge ( $12 ) to apply HD Foundation Ivory #115 ( $40 ) which is oil – free product. Because it has a medium-to-full-coverage this liquid foundation will cover skin imperfections flawlessly. Even if your are in bright or harsh lighting your complexion will look flawless, because the HD Foundation creates a soft-focus effect which was designed to meet the coverage concerns of a complexion in the spotlight.
