I am no beauty expert, but I think my hours of Youtube makeup tutorial experience and eagerness to try out new products that I never needed gave me good insight on the do’s and dont’s of my makeup routine. I’m always looking for new products to try, so recommendations are welcome!
I have oily skin year round, so I prefer matte makeup products, but am not opposed to water-based products. As far as applying my makeup goes, I use a damp beauty blender for my foundation/concealer, and then Morphe brushes for all other applications. I begin with light portions, and build up depending on what kind of look I am going for.
I have been loving how blendable and natural these products make my skin look, and have had no issues with products not lasting throughout the day. Like I said, I am no beauty expert, but I would recommend these products, especially to beginners, because of their easy application and effortless blendability.
