A Perfect Pair For Flawless Skin

Recently I did a blog post all about the perfect bridal makeup look and which products I recommend and even used on my own wedding day.


I have to say, with any makeup look you want to start off with the most flawless skin you can achieve. When it comes to special occasions, I alway reach for these two products.

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation 
The perfect your skin, but better finish. Long lasting. Blends beautifully. Just can't get enough of this beautiful perfection. Do yourself a favor and get a sample to test out.

Hourglass Veil Primer
Everyone who has ever tried this ends up buying it. When in doubt about primers, reach for this one. Oil Free. SPF 15. No flash back. Creates the most perfect canvase to apply foundation. Works beautifully with almost every foundation I've tried with it.

Perfect Summer All in One Treatment Primer

I'm a big fan for less is more. I'm even a bigger fan of multipurpose products, especially in the sweltering summer months. Summer is for get up and go enjoy the beautiful weather, not spending your whole day pimping. You want to look effortless not over done.


Tarte came out with their BB tinted treatment primer last year and I finally gave it a try this year. I love most Tarte Cosmetic products and this one did not disappoint.

The texture feels amazing and goes on so smooth. I feel my skin texture improving and it would make a great primer as well for any powder foundations like my Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Foundation, but this is definitely great for wearing alone as well. I find the color options to be a bit challenging for me with a slight tan as I have now. you can see what I mean in the video. I started with light, then exchanged it for medium, but the medium is a bit too orange for me, so ended up sticking with the light and will have to add more bronzer to it. If this was winter I'd be fine.

You can see my first impression here:


What are your thoughts on your goto summer products? Will you give this BB treatment a try? Leave me a comment or tweet me.
