I have actually heard about this and was going to try it myself. As soon as I do, you'll be first to know it.
Thank you!
I don't need for for foundation as I use SKIN79's BB cream. If you have not tried it I really REALLY recommend it , I use very light makeup and I never found a foundation that was not heavy or did not cover well.This does not feel like a foundation, it covers, it's anti-wrinkle, and it as SPF and it is very long lasting. After I take it off my skin feels like a baby's butt. Haha.
I was looking for a good primer for my eye shadows, I tried ELF's but my eye shadow does not POP! At first it looks great and during the day it will "fade" and I have to reapply constantly.
I've read the Amazon comments about the Monistat chafing cream, and I'm intrigued because I happen to have a barely-used tube of this stuff in my bathroom. Would the product go on after moisturizing but before foundation? I'm interested in giving it a try!
ETA: I did some Googling and answered my own questions. I just gave the Monistat "Primer" a try and am pretty satisfied with the results. The product goes on smoothly, with only a pea-sized amount required for the entire face, and it covers fine lines really well. My pores even look smaller! I'm still prone to breakouts despite being 29-ish , so I'll have to make sure that I don't have any problems in that regard, but I'd suggest giving this product a try!
I also read that when using this you had to keep a good skin cleansing regime to reduce breakouts.
I've tried the Monistat chafing cream and it works wonderfully! Of course, you need to realize it doesn't have any of the "beauty" ingredients of the higher-priced primers.
I'm glad!!
Let's talk skin care for the tween/teen set. I've got my two oldest using Cetaphil's Gentle Foaming Cleanser, but my son is starting to get those little white bumps that usually precede acne. Should I switch him out to an acne formula now or wait till that first pimple appears?
Also, during the tween years, I'm inclined to think just a gentle cleanser is all they need at this point. When, exactly should moisturizer be added to the routine?
I remember that when I was teen, I would get these bumps. My dermatologist recommended not using moisturizer that contained Mineral Oil. I changed moisturizer and gone! O_O
Make-up fairy what is your opinion on chemical peels. The kind you do at home? Would you recommend them?
