Updated daily foundation routine….

Now try not to be too astounded when I tell you that my Mac Studio Fix Fluid has gone to the back of the foundation line. As much as I still love it above any other foundation EVER, I really wanted to use up some other’s that I’ve had and not really liked, in order to avoid wasting money!


I did a review a while ago on the Garnier BB cream saying I didn’t like it, which is still true. In fact I now think I hate it. I gave it to my Mum to see if she got on any better with it, and I’m yet to hear a verdict but I’d be fairly interested to know. Anyway. I also hated the Bourjois Health Mix (oooo controversial) but was determined to find a way I liked it. I tried my Mac mineralised skin finish over the top, I tried the Elf HD powder, I even tried mixing the BB Cream and Healthy Mix together (odd combo, wouldn’t recommend trying this!). Anyway while I was on the Elf website a while ago I (for some unknown reason) decided I wanted to try one of their mineralised foundations. Now I like a full coverage foundation, preferably nice and thick and ‘glowy’. Again, bad decision because I hated it. However one morning while I was throwing all sorts of junk on my face, I came across the Healthy Mix/Elf Mineral foundation combo and I am LOVING IT! I can’t say I’d ever wear it on an evening out or a special occasion but for an every day, wearing to work type foundation, I’m smitten!




Me new combo

Basically, I’d encourage you to just chuck on a load of combo’s of products even if you’re not keen on them because you never know what magic will happen!
