Review - Maybelline superstay silky foundation
2007-05-03 17:25:00
A while ago, my friend Amy recommended Maybelline superstay skily foundation to me when I was complain about another liquid foundation I was using. Few weeks later, I love the product so much that I have to share it with all of you. First is first, my skin condition: (I am Asian so my skin tone is more yellowish.) sensitive, breakout, oily in summer and super dry in winter. (The worst you could imagine. )I don't even wearing makeup too much simply because it is hard for me to find the right product. It's extremely frustrating when it comes to foundation. I have few problems with most foundations: 1. They make my face shine in summer and they show my dry skin in winter. 2. Most of them worsen the break outs. 3. They usually need to reapply every 6 hours. (esp. in summer) 4. Some of them make my skin irritating.

Not until when I was talking to one of my friends earlier this week about health magazines, it suddenly dunned on me that I don't even own one! Not even one! And how many fashion magazines do I have? Tons. (enough to open up a magazine store, seriously) :. You know what I did next was trying to do as much catch ups as I can. (Isn't that the way it has always been. Better late then never, right?) Someone recommended Remedy . Not only it is free, it also has many free samples available for our household needs without any additional subscription.(Provided by their advertisers of course.) But I thought, why not? It's a win win situation for consumers. Don't get me wrong, some of the health blog owners online are better than professional these day. But I am a "out of sigh out of mind" person so sometimes I need a little re...
