Touch Ups..

[Laura]

What do you all use for "touching up" your make up during the working/school day? I'm using CD pressed powder at the moment but it doesnt really do anything! I'd like to re-apply foundation or something but then my blush will be covered! What to do, what to do??!!

I don't really feel that my face needs much touching up otherwise.

So does the Stila Sheer Colour powder keep your foundation in place perfectly??

My touch-up bag contains blotting sheets from Clean and Clear, concealer, translucent pressed powder from Origins, a mini-kabuki brush from Chanel, a freebie blush from Bobbi Brown (Desert Rose) and the 'lip of the day' look which varies.

For the quickest touch up, I blot my face, tap a bit of concealer under my eyes, brush powder on my nose and swipe on some gloss. About a minute's worth of work.

If I touch up during the day (which is rare!), I blot with Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets and apply MAC Blot Powder. I'll also go over my eyeliner (if needed) and reapply my lippie of the day.

I have CoverGirl Clean pressed powder in Creamy Natural that I use for touch ups, and of course whatever the lippie of the day is.

My touch-ups consist of blotting papers or a cotton hankerchief along w/my l/g &/or l/s.

I usually just throw MAC Pressed Powder in my purse along with Select Cover-Up (if it's a bad skin day) and my lip color.

My touchups consist of lipstick and gloss along with my Shiseido eraser pencil that I use for mascara smudges. I do nothing about my foundation - it stays all day!

Great girls, thanks for all the replies. I have blotting sheets so basically i think i need to find a powder (better than the CD one i have) to touch up. Plus i have a black kohl liner in my drawer at work that i use to touch up my liner.

Now which powder to buy for combo skin..

 

[MacSux]

It's a wax pencil that "erases" smudges and mistakes from things like mascara and lipstick. I'm totally anal about smudges!!

What are the best blotting papers????

I really like Clean & Clear. I've only ever tried 2 types (Clean & Clear being 1), the other were in a pink pack & from Asia. Can't remember the name.. sorry!
