You had mentioned the Tarte Shape Tape foundation in a video a while back so I purchased a mini size and I really do love it 😍 especially when I need good coverage and when I need my foundation to stay in place all day. I picked up the Fenty easy drop foundation/skin tint and it’s now my daily wear product! I love everything about it! I’m dry, it doesn’t accentuate any dryness, it covers my mild rosacea and I feel really good when I wear it. You can still see my skin but it covers what I want. I’m a true neutral skin tone and there a lot of brands that don’t offer a true neutral.

hello mel, what makes you choose the la mer primer over the tatcha ? i have noticed it listed several times in your recent videos & am curious to know its properties. i have the tatcha primer & really like it. i’ve also recently gone down the la mer rabbit hole so any info will be greatly appreciated ! where i am, beauty counters are still fully sealed with no testing allowed so it’s been impossible to test any makeup, skincare or perfume for more than a year now. i’m able to get a rough idea of shades & product performance only through youtube. furthermore, used product returns are probably allowed only in the US so any mistakes will be very costly indeed ...
