Review: Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation

Hey Everyone!

I've always said to myself that when I start a beauty blog I'd do tons of product reviews but going through my posts all I post about are my hauls and gigs. 

I decided to start with my personal HOLY GRAIL foundation called Silk Creme Foundation from Laura Mercier. 

Growing up I had really oily skin so I was super prone to acne I also have sensitive skin so I react HORRIBLY to certain products/ingredients. Through trial and error I found a skin care routine which controlled my oilyness and acne. So nowadays I only get acne during that time of the month or when I don't get 8 hours of sleep. 

My skin today is the worst it has been for a long long time due to the following. 1) I just had my period 2) I've been getting less than 8 hours of sleep and 3) I'm super stressed with work! Because of the disgusting state of my skin I decided that today was the PERFECT day to show you all how AWESOME this foundation is.

SO ARE YOU READY TO SEE ME SANS FARDS?! :)))))

I apologize for being MIA for the majority of this month! I know I've been promising to do more posts and finally put up tutorials but I've been super busy with my day job (Palo Alto Bed & Breakfast). Anyway here is Part 2 of my Mrs. Philippines Experience with Make Up Forever Philippines. 

The prep was done at the New World Hotel in Makati and I had the chance to work with my previous candidate Mrs. Steph Malibiran. Here are the after photos! 

Pageant: Mrs. Philippines Globe 2012 - Press Conference June 21, 2012

Dear (imaginary) Readers,

I apologize for not blogging as much last June. It was such a busy month for me make-up wise. I had 2 weddings and two Make Up Forever events plus "real life" work was pretty hectic as well! :)) 

One of my favorite Make Up Forever gigs to date was the Mrs. Philippines Globe 2012. We met the ladies on June 21 and we kinda bonded with our candidates so we ended up doing their makeup for the following events. 

Here are the photos I took/stole of my candidate Mrs. Steph during the Press Conference.  

Mrs. Steph Au Naturel (okay fine maybe with a bit of foundation!)
