Miss Tiny SG

hello girls..i'm thinking on having a new foundie/BB cream

isit ok to replace foundie by using only BB cream?

any highly recommend foundie/BB cream from u guys?

Ya, u can just use bb cream, followed by loose powder to set ur makeup. U can skip ur foundie.

i just bought skinfood aloe sun bb cream and have tried a couple of times. so far quite ok la, can't feel the benefits of bb cream yet.. but u may give it a try since it's sort of a highly raved bb cream. but i think bb cream's coverage is not very good, so u might wanna consider that too.

bb cream IS a foundation (plus sunblock plus concealer)
a convenient all in 1 base

i like lioele...good oil control and finish
if u are bery fair, u can try BRTC but quite ex

My sister bought this by mistake or she gave it to me as I gift. After that I used this:

and many ppl complimented my complexion. I kinda liked my skin and the ladies working in my ex company said that my face was glowing and the colour was natural. I think there is some ingredients in this product to make the skin better, cuz I was quite happy with my skin condition that time.

After some time, it ran out and so I decided to buy another bottle, but the Clarins sales girl backside itchy, persuaded me to buy this one instead:

I used and used and used.... didn't see anything fantastic about it. I couldn't wait to finish the whole bottle.

After that, on hearing my makeup artist's recommendation, I decided to check on MAC. And since then, I have been using this:

Very happy with it.

very small and thin and got a weird smell

alfagal SG

viciouskitty74 SG

What you girls use to wash your brushes?

I either use face wash and johnson baby shampoo.

Read somewhere that some make up artist uses hair conditioner to wash his brushes.

FireIce SG

roll the brushes around in make up remover
then wash with diluted shampoo
