Face of the Day 10.05.12


This was actually two Friday's ago FOTD, and of course the only reason why I was able to do this, was because I had the day off! Yes, making it an extra long Thanksgiving weekend! So prior to preparing myself for the 4.5 hour ride to Ottawa, I decided what better way to start the weekend then to document my makeup process :p - so here it goes...

Before and After.
It's a love/hate thing I have when I put before and after pictures side by side on this blog. My makeup-free picture aren't the most flattering, but let's be honest, before and afters are so much fun to look at :) As you can see in my before picture, my skin is blotchy and a bit dull. I promise you I didn't touch up any of my self photos or add more light to them... makeup really just does wonders!


 Base Face Application. 
Products Used: 
Giorgio Armani's Maestro Fusion Makeup in shade #4
I've really been meaning to blog about this, but haven't found the time. It's pretty sheer coverage, but the feeling on my skin is definitely something that I've never experienced before. I'll try to do a full review on it when I get the chance! I love the dropper application!
