Have you ever bought something and wondered how you ever lived without it? That's how I'm feeling about the Make Up For Ever HD Powder. I went to Sephora last week knowing I wanted a new setting powder and was planning on buying the one by Laura Mercier, which is a little bit tinted and not considered HD. But when I hunted around the store a little more, I found myself drawn towards the MUFE. This powder is a three time award winning micro-finish, universal translucent powder. It is ultra-fine with a silky smooth finish that sets your foundation for a flawless finish...which we all obviously want. Not to mention, it comes in a spill-proof container. So, even though it wasn't what I planned to buy, I came home with a new baby. One week later, I am loving it and it has replaced my MAC Mineralize Skinfinish setting powder. In the same day, I also picked up Sephora's version of a pH match lipgloss (I recently blogged about them here). It creates the most beautiful shade of pink and is very long wearing. Lastly, when I stopped at the drug store for a few toiletries, I made a quick browse through the makeup and came across this beautiful pearl highlighter by Physician's Formula. Before this, I didn't own a specific highlighter, but often would use a frosty shadow to get the job done. I am loving it when applied with the Sigma F50 Duo Fibre brush. I also just picked up the Mary Lou-Manizer powder by TheBalm on Hautelook and am impatiently awaiting its arrival! What new things have you immediately loved? XO, Carrie
