What do you do when your makeup feels icky on your face like its just sitting there? I can't really explain the feeling but I'm sure you probably know what I mean!!

I usually feel like that when I have too much on. I usually just grab a tissue and press it on my face to absorb whatevers excess.

Do you use a primer? it helps with a barrier so it doesn't feel like your leather face! it helps me.

@ellyn I do that since I've run outta blotting papers or don't feel like grabbing my powder puffer at that moment.

I use a primer and setting spray. I think it might be the makeup is heavy, thicker. Wash it off start over, or find a light weight one that feels better for those days ")

Yesterday I felt that way and patted a makeup remover wipe all over, smoothed what was left with my hands and then used translucent powder. It worked a treat!

@Melissa I am almost done with the NARS light reflecting translucent pressed powder. I like it, but it is expensive and you might be able to find something similar on the cheapz.

@elizabeth I will stop by ulta I'm unsure if they sale Nars or not. Does Mac have a good one??
May 8, 2013
Monimara B.

Ulta doesn't carry Nars, sephora has some. it it still feels heavy I would recommend switching to a mineral foundation :)

@ savannah h...I once used Mac's mineralized line but I don't remember how it felt. I do remember that my skin loved it tho.
