The pump dispenser, on the other hand, is perfect. Ciddiyim. This thing kicks so much @ss!

I understand it seems silly to obsess over a pump, however a great one such as this indicates wasting a great deal less of a $34 product. It uses so much manage that I can quickly capture out half a drop.

The foundation itself feels extremely thin as well as watery, as well as the very first time I utilized it I was sure it wouldn’t supply sufficient coverage. however it did. I utilized half a pump as well as used that over my entire deal with with my fingers, as well as then utilized a few a lot more drops for some difficulty areas on my chin. It’s mid-level coverage, so it’s not completely opaque, however I believe it looks extremely natural, like tinted moisturizer turned up a notch (with the added benefit of SPF 25 PA+++).

Since it’s created for all skin types, from dry to oily as well as combo, I wondered exactly how it would manage my dry cheeks as well as oily forehead. Well, it seems to fare much better on the drier bits, like my cheeks, where it evens out my skin tone without increasing any type of flakes, however on my oily forehead, shiny patches begin to peek with after 4-5 hours. I’ve started applying a setting powder to keep down the shine, however if you’re incredibly oily, you may likewise have to include a primer.

I’ve been using Oxygen Wow for just under a week so far, as well as I do have one possible concern. I like the lightweight feel, natural surface as well as exactly how it doesn’t clear up into my fine lines, however I’ve likewise observed a couple of little pimples around my chin as well as mouth. Wah!

I can’t state for sure they’re triggered by the foundation, however it as well as hey there perfect Powder have been the only recent modifications to my routine. Of course, I do have extremely moody, sensitive skin, so it might be other things.

I can see myself using Oxygen Wow on weekends as well as whenever I’m in a rush.

MAKEUP as well as appeal blog RATING: B+/A- (a restricted shade selection, as well as for $34, the choice to go full protection would have been nice)

Fashion De-Evolution

I’m not doing as well well on one of my resolutions for 2012 — to progress my fashion sense. As a matter of fact, I believe I’ve done a lot more fashion devolving than the other method around (see: Snooki boots).

My most current obsession, a bit something I like to phone call my Grandpa Sweater, isn’t precisely cutting edge.

Not precisely fashion forward, however it’s sooo comfortable. It’s a soft brown button-down slouchy number I chosen up at Nordstrom rack on sale for about $15.

Tabs has made his disdain for it abundantly clear. I’ve caught him pulling off the buttons (after two weeks, it’s already missing two), as well as he unravels the yarn with his evil claws every possibility he gets.

I concern he won’t stop up until it’s totally destroyed…

Sometimes, I vow that feline expects me to sit around the home in YSL couture.
