New Favorite Primer!

Photo by Nouveau Cheap

I have mentioned before on my blog that my skin seems to get oilier, the older I get.  I am always on the hunt for a mattifying primer to keep my makeup from sliding right off my face!  Back in March, the lovely Recessionista over at Nouveau Cheap recommended Black Radiance Complexion Perfection Shine Control Primer.  I really wanted to try it, but could not find it anywhere.   Fast forward 4 months, and I found it at one of my Walmarts.

LOVE it!  Please go read Recessionista's Review, and check out her entire blog---she is amazing!!!

Beauty Would You Rather TAG!

 I shamelessly stole this from the lovely Veronika!

1.Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or Nice hair and no make-up? 

Messy hair with nice makeup!  My hair is usually messy anyway!

2.Would you rather shave your eyebrows or have your eyelashes fall out?

Yuck!  Eyelashes falling out, I suppose.  Brows would just be freakish.
3.Would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?

MAC! 

4.Would you rather wear lipgloss/lipliner look or 80's perm? 

80's perm, cause I rocked once- I can rock it again! LOL

5.Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?

Overdone blush--cannot stand the foundation line!
 
6.Would you rather wear MC Hammer pants or biker shorts in public? 

MC Hammer pants!

7.Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered? 

I'd rather have tan lines.

8.Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair color? 

Bad color, because you can redye it. 

9.Would you rather have youtube or twitter taken away forever?

Twitter. I *heart* YT!
 

10. Would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara?  

Brushes- I can totally go without them, but mascara is my favorite cosmetic!
