Looking to lay a better foundation with your foundation?

This past Sunday, my best friend Ro and I decided it was high time for girly day. This typically consists of lunch, a couple drinks, shopping and LOTS of laughing! After a full meal, we ventured into the mall and headed straight for Sephora (our own personal slice of heaven) and started to shop. As we wandered in and out of lipsticks and glosses, primers and powders, Ro decided she wanted to find some foundation. Not just any foundation mind you, but THE foundation. One that covers but doesn't cake, one that glides on but doesn't feel like an oil slick, one that finally does what it says it will.
So we asked one of the MANY Sephora employees who are there at your beck and call to guide you to the right product for you. We were led to the section of Make Up For Ever products. We were told tales of grandure! "It will cover everything without being cakey" she said, "You won't even need powder to set it!" she proclaimed!!!
I looked at Ro and saw her skepticism, but she decided "Why not, I've tried everything else". So they located her perfect shade, and then, for $34 dollars, she purchased the Make Up For Ever Mat Velvet Liquid Foundation.
Let me tell you my little bitchlin's, she is gorgeous! With barely a squirt of foundation on her face, she was transformed. Her skin glowed, the tone was even and SHE NEVER HAD TO SET IT WITH POWDER!!!!
So the final verdict? If you need a little more coverage for acne scars, blotchiness, redness and you hate carrying a compact around for touch ups during the day, grab this stuff!!! It is definitely $34 well spent. And if you don't agree, take it back! Sephora does have a generous return policy within 60 days of purchase, so you have nothing to lose and a gorgeous face to gain!
