Tell me everything! and please also mention your skin type and skin shade.
I’m partially writing this post because I’m trying to talk myself out of ALL. THE. FOUNDATIONS. on my Sephora VIB sale wish list best now. Overall, though, I’m pleased with my current base makeup sitch, but you know how it is when you’re a makeup junkie… I’m always wishing to find something new to love best around the corner.

I’m also partially writing this post because I’m hella nosy, haha. and this is the closest I can get to actually peeking inside your makeup bag. #truth

Concealer
Make Up For ever Ultra HD Concealers (Y33 and Y41 mixed in the under-eye area; Y41 for the rest of my face)
