Alison Raffaele Reality Base

Alison Raffaele is one line of cosmetics that I don’t think gets enough attention. Even though their True Concealer is known as one of the best in the business (it won Glam.com’s 2008 Beauty Award for “Best Concealer”), most women I know have never tried their products.
Alison Raffaele Reality Base is a fantastic long-wearing foundation that renews itself throughout the day. Sounds crazy, right? Well it’s actually true. Its “self-renewing formula” refreshes and rehydrates your skin for 12 hours or more.
This lightweight foundation feels smooth and silky going on. It’s not heavy and all and would probably work well …read more

If you are looking for a foundation that will minimize the look of your pores and give your skin a flawless finish, check out Joey New York Pure Pores Pore Minimizer Foundation.
I have tried a lot of makeup over the years, and this liquid-to-powder foundation is absolutely one of my favorite products. It’s a full coverage foundation that isn’t heavy, but it’s so effective. With this makeup you don’t need an extra concealer because the coverage is that good. I think this foundation is great for everyday, but would be especially useful if you are getting photographed. The color is …read more
