I just posted about this powder compact that I ordered from E.L.F. It finally arrived in the mail yesterday (and I have to say, I feel like I waited forever for it to get here!) and of course, I immediately busted into my bag of goodies to try them out. I actually ordered about 7 products (2 shadows, an eyebrow groomer, bronzer, the complexion perfection, a lipgloss and a concealer stick - all for only $17 inlcuding shipping!), but I want to focus this post on the complexion perfection. If you are like me, your skin is not perfect. I get really shiny during the day, not to mention that my skin tone is uneven and often gets a little blotchy - especially in warmer weather. The colors in this compact seem a little crazy at first and I read some reviews of this product where users complained that it made their complexion look washed out or greenish...but to all of that i saw PISHAW! I am in love with this powder! The trick is to apply it lightly, focus on areas where your skin may be a bit redder by going heavier on the green powder over that area, and blend like hell. Blending is super important in making your foundations, powders, concealers, etc., look NATURAL. Ever seen a girl who looked like she was wearing a mask because there was an obvious line where her makeup ended and her bare skin began? Right around the jawline? No offense, teens of America, but girls who are just starting to wear makeup for the first time are INFAMOUS for doing this. So, sure, this powder could make your face look gray, if you apply too much and don't blend it properly. But my hope is that you would never, ever do that. ;)
So. Do not be afraid of the blue, pink, yellow and green compact, it is your friend. Don't overdo it and you'll love it just as much as I do.
