Pre Makeup MUST

So I completed any amazing photo shoot this weekend and I was saved by a MAC product that is applied right before you start with makeup and right after the primer spray is applied. It is a shimmer base that literally makes the face glow before anything else is put on. Must apply a shimmer cream to keep the products bright for hours.

What is your skin type?

You do need to know your skin type. We are all not exactly the same and some products are better for you then others.

Dry Skin - Skin feels like it needs lotion all the time. When you wipe your skin it feels itchy and needs nourishment.

Oily Skin - Does not need anything else to keep it moisturized. Needs something to balance out the oil.

Normal Skin - Feels good most of the time and could you a little moisturizer to keep it healthy along with a proper cleaning routine.

Sensitive Skin and Acne Prone Skin - It is irritated by almost anything and you always have to be cautious about what products you are putting on your skin. Essential Oils are great because they won't add harm to your skin.
