Hi there girlies,
I am on a budget this month as I have a wedding to attend and a holiday for my 30 th to book
.
I need your help next Friday I have a wedding and I need a foundation which will last all day and night! I'm normally a mac girl but I really can't afford it this month! I only wear bb creams / tinted moisturiser on a daily bases as my skin is pretty good but would like a good coverage since its a wedding !
Any recommendations ? For foundation ? Also what lipstick could I get that would last so I'm not reapplying all the time ?
Thanks soo much for any help

Have you got time to pop into a department store such as John Lewis on Friday before you go to the wedding and get them to do a free make-up for you using Bobbi Brown or Mac?“A journey is best measured in friends, not in miles.”

I like Lily Lolo mineral foundation. My skin is pretty good too and it is just the right amount of coverage for me - it's quite easy to layer it up too if you've got any areas you want to conceal. You can get a cheap sample pot to try and go from there (I think they are less than £2 - tiny but last long enough to get an idea if the shade suits you and you like the make up). They've always delivered the next day too (Royal Mail) whenever I've ordered. My only advice would be to wear it with a primer as it really makes it last longer! I've got a Body Shop primer at the minute (bought it when there was 40%) off but I think every brand does one now.
To be honest, I don't know if I'd want to try a completely new make up routine just before a wedding - you need time to check your skin doesn't react and that it's the right shade! I'd probably just use your regular BB cream and maybe look for a setting powder from the same range to set it.0 -
Go to the Est!e Lauder counter and try their double wear. They'll also give you a pot with some in to test. It's about enough to last you a week xx:j I'm getting married on 22nd Febuary 2015 :j0
