I applied my primer all over my face with my fingers. I applied and blended my foundation with the Sigma F80. I applied my concealer under my eyes and blended with the Beauty Blender Micro Mini. I set under my eyes with the RT Setting Brush and the rest of my face with the Danielle Powder Brush. I contoured my cheekbones with the Luxie Large Angled Brush. I applied my bronzer to my forehead and cheeks with the Bdellium Tools 955. I applied my blush to my cheeks with the Luxie Duo Fiber Powder Brush. I applied my highlighter to the tops of my cheekbones, down the nose, and the Cupid's bow with the RT Fan Brush.

I filled in my brows with the pomade and set them with the gel.

I applied my eye primer and blended from lash line to brow with my finger. I set the primer with Tempera with the Danielle Blending Brush. I applied Love Letter in and above the crease with a MAC 217. I applied Venetian Red to the outer corner and through the crease with the ELF Blending Brush. I applied Red Ochre to the outer corner with the ELF Defining Eye Brush. I mixed Venetian Red and Red Ochre and applied them to the lower lash line with a MAC 219. I applied Primavera to the inner half of the lid with the RT Base Shadow Brush and to the brow bone and inner corner with the Bdellium Tools 765. I applied the liquid lipstick as liner with the RT Brow Brush. I applied black liner to my tight line and waterline and one coat of mascara to my bottom lashes and two on the top.

I applied my lip color from the tube.

Congratulations Alexis!! I love the bold colors on you, you wear them very well.
What do think of the Urban Decay optical illusion primer? is that the pore filling primer?

Thank you, Lainee!

Thank you, Monica! The Optical Illusion is the pore filling primer and I love it! Definitely helps to fill in pores but it is a little on the thick side so it takes a little more time to blend in but that doesn't bother me (:

Thamk you for the reply Alexis, do you use the primer on your full face, or just in areas you feel need it?

Monica, I focus on areas that I need it first and then take whatever excess I have on my hands and put it everywhere else (:
