You all, this foundation is life. One of my recent brides got me hooked on this, and I am obsessed! I truly only have about 10 minutes to get myself fully ready in the mornings before baby girl stages a riot, so we have to work efficiently over here. I typically try to get some makeup on if I am venturing out into the world, because these dark circles and bags will frighten the people.

I love the finish, and love even more the fact that I can put it on without ever dirtying a finger. This is extremely helpful because I must always be able to grab a paci at the drop of a…paci. So I like the mess free ease of the application. And all the moms said AMEN.

I am linking all of my current 5 minute face favs, and I have listed out shades I am using for ya. I also posted a video on my instagram (in my hair and makeup highlight) of how I use the foundation stick. It’s magical right?!

1. Becca Backlight Priming Filter Face Primer (love, adds some illumination and also smoothes out skin for flawless foundation application.)
2. Vanish Seamless Foundation Stick I am wearing the shade Natural, helps even out my redness. I am using a discontinued brush, but here are my pics and best value if you need face brushes, and here is my pic if you just need a foundation brush! I like a dense brush.
3. Double Duty Shape Tape Contour Concealer I use shade N22, light natural! I like to apply with these little spongey guys.
4. Rimmel Stay Matte Powder I have used this forever, and love. I set foundation and concealer with it. Using 04, Sandstone.
5. Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer I love this because it is matte, no shimmer to it.
6. Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Champagne Pop. I just want to bathe in this, if my highlight doesn’t blind me in the mirror when I walk by, I want more.
7. Milani Baked Blush in shade illuminoso. So so pretty and blush peachy in color.
8. Maybelline Falsies Mascara this has been my fave mascara for years. I love the brush, I can really press my lashes up, and I love the formula. The regular formula, do not be fooled and get the flared formula, it flakes really badly!
9. Brow Wiz I use color taupe
10. Buxom Plumpline Lip Liner in stealth, and Buxom Full On Plumping Lip Cream in White Russian. Such a pretty neutral combo.

And there you have it friends. Go ahead and get you one of these foundation sticks and thank me later!! I do recommend using a primer to hep with foundation blending. Usually I don’t think primers really do a drag thing, but this foundation blends way easier when using a moisturizing primer!
