About Ambercinque Expertise I can answere questions regarding product knowledge and purchasing. Cosmetic applications and recommendations.
Experience I have worked for several cosmetic counters such as Lancome,Dior, Shiseido, Estee Lauder,etc. I have apprenticed for stage and costume make up. I am also a free lance make up artist.
Organizations I volunteered in the past a few years back on this site.
Education/Credentials I have apprenticed and gone through many courses through out my years.
Question I have dry cheeks most of the time, and the common oily T-zone. I have freckles and some age spots. I am 31yrs. old and I have been using proactiv for my deep cleanser and clinique rinse-off foaming cleanser to remove make-up. I am having a hard time finding a foundation that works for me. I like to cover up my freckles and age spots but not be real oily either. I not really worried about the cost as much as the outcome. I also don't like it to feel real heavy on my face. I don't normally use powder, and I'm almost always in a hurry.I am currently using Mary Kay which is ok but comes off when I blot my nose. Could you please help in recommending something? Thank you.
Answer Hello Melissa.
I recommend Bare Minerals. You can adjust the coverage and it is natural no oils. Trust me you will not be disappointed.Be sure to purchase the brushes since they make a HUGE differnce in application.They sell some great kits that include brushes and basics along with an instructional dvd. www.bareminerals.com
I also wanted to make one suggestion, I noticed you are using clinique cleanser to remove makeup. Try Proactivs makeup removing cloths. They are the best in the business. They remove all makeup and leave no residue and are great for travel or if you are lazy or have a long night leave some by your bed and cleanse your face.
Good Luck.
Amber
