Do Powder Or Cream Makeup Last Longer

If I were to await at my makeup kit from one year ago, majority of my products would've been powders.

Aside from a liquid foundation and concealer, my blush, bronzer, eyeshadow, highlighter, and possibly even brow products, came in the form of a pressed pulverisation compact.

Call it the 'Glossier effect', or my desire to take peel as juicy every bit a ripe summertime peach (minus the fuzz), but now, I'd say my routine is fifty to eighty per cent cream or liquid.

Here'south what I've switched to and how I'k finding it… Oh and for context, I accept combination skin (a T-zone that is oily AF but slightly on the dry side everywhere else).

#1 Foam blush

Ok can someone please tell me how the hell I was sleeping on cream chroma for so long?!

This is the one switch I one thousand per cent recommend everyone to attempt. The creamy texture of a rosy-peach pigment has taken me to a whole new, delectable, level of fresh, dewy and youthful cheeks. Plus, I find it looks way less 'false'. I recall it's a combination of a slightly sheerer finish and the texture beingness more similar to the skin.

I started off applying it with my fingers (and will withal exercise so if in a compression), but I've establish the best method is actually using a buffing brush – information technology makes a little product go a much longer style. I start past softly buffing it into the apples using circular motions, and so sweep the excess up and out towards my ear.

My top picks: Stila Convertible Color (I like using the shade Lilium, $38 at Mecca ) and Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wand in Pinkgasm ($60, world wide web.charlottetilbury.com/au). bh recommends: jane iredale In Touch Cream Chroma and The Organic Skin Co. Cheeky Lips.

#two Cream contour and bronzer

I first started using cream contour and bronzing products in an attempt to get a more 'chiseled' (read: cheekbones so sharp they could cut glass) effect. But I've really establish they're more than useful for creating natural-looking shadow or a faux sun tan effect. So contouring yep, merely more for subtle, everyday dimension or warmth. Just draw on, alloy and get.

If it's a truly strong Nikki Tutorials-esque contour you're afterwards, I'd recommend doubling downwards wth a cream showtime, and then cementing information technology with a powder on summit.

I use matte, chocolatey creams if it's contouring I'm after, but warmer terracottas and caramels if I'm trying for sunkissed summer skin.

My elevation picks: Fenty Matchstix in 'Mocha' ($37, Sephora) and Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel ($64, Chanel)bh recommends: Clinique Chubby Stick Sculpting Contour and Maybelline New York Master Contour V-Face Duo Stick.

#3 Foam eyeshadow

I take had both good and bad experiences with foam eyeshadows.

I'm sure I'1000 not alone in saying that most formulas crease due to the oily nature of eyelids, or finish up transferring to the brow bone, which completely ruins your brow shaping endeavour. Just I've still managed to find some goodies in the mix.

The ones I like tend to be of a metallic cease, and take enough sass (and pigment) in them to be used solo. Cream shadows don't seem to build well for me, so sticking to a single hero works best. Besides, if they do stop upwardly creasing or moving, I just duck to the bathroom, alloy them out with my finger and we're ready to motion on.

But as far as replacing my powders goes? You lot'll still find me reaching for a palette.

My tiptop picks: Charlotte Tilbury Optics To Mesmerise in 'Rose Gold' ($44, charlottetilbury.com/au), Huda Beauty Double-Ended Matte & Metal Liquid Eyeshadow ($39, Sephora)bh recommends: Revlon ColorStay™ Crème Heart Shadow and Bobbi Brown Longwear Cream Eyeshadow Stick.

#4 Cream highlighter

I fell hard and fast for foam highlighters. Simply slathering them on the tops of my cheek bones would often consequence with shimmer sliding right into my crow'southward feet. And that is something I'd rather not have illuminated.

I withal love cream and liquid highlighters dearly, I'm just more selective and conscientious with my application. I find them to be glorious across the brow bone, Cupid's bow and inner corner of the heart. As for the cheeks, I've learnt to combine a layer of liquid with a layer of pulverization (for slide resistance) and the issue is one 3D cheek bone glow that tin can't be trounce.

Oh and how I could I forget the decolletage and high betoken of the shoulder? RiRi taught me.

My summit picks: Nudestix Nudies All Over Confront Color Glow in 'Illumi-naughty' ($52, Sephora), Becca Skin Love Glow Glaze Stick ($42, Sephora) bh recommends:ulta3 Highlighter Sculpt Stick and INIKA Organic Certified Organic Foam Illuminisor.

In conclusion, I urge those who like fresh, dewy skin to put down the powder (to an extent) and effort a foam. I certainly don't regret it.
