Recs for a primer, everyday eyeshadow, and lippie?

Post by Yankeesweetie35 » Wed Jun 01, 2011 7:53 pm

I have very oily skin and use the All Purpose Foundation and Oil Control Blur. (My oily skin can sometimes get dehydrated so that why I went for the all purpose and not the original). Anyway, the combination is working pretty well, but I was hoping to get a light primer to help smooth at my skin more. My skin is also fair and sensitive, so I'd like a primer that has basic/soothing ingredients, not another blur. Any suggestions?

I could use some eyeshadow for everyday use. More in the neutral/natural range that can just enhance my eyes.

I'd like a sheer to medium pigmented lippie for my pale lips. Something like berry/pink, like a just flushed look. I heard Bitten is good?

Btw, I'm 1 Olive: 12 Ivory. Dark brown eyes and hair. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated! :D

Primer:
Ultra Sheer Zinc

Everyday Eyeshadow: I am not sure what you want here, so I am listing some stand alone colors (or one color wash in neutral tones)
Adorn, Aztec, Sandy, Quartzite, Bailey

Lippie:
Bitten will be very pink/red on you. I am thinking more like Berry Nice.
