Murad Essential-C Night Moisture

A reliable favorite

Occasionally I stray to other moisturizers, but this is the one I keep returning to. It feels thick and creamy without being greasy and I wake up with a fresh glow to my skin. Plus, the scent is really nice -- like oranges. - I have normal to dry skin, age 30.

MAC Studio Stick SPF 15

Only Okay

I find this foundation to be mediocre, but useful for specific situations. For me, it has very full coverage that needs a lot of blending to make it look nice (a foundation brush is a must!) Also, dry skin will need to be well-moisturized or it will look chalky. The positives are that it is easily portable (doesn't need to go in your liquids bag when you travel) and can serve as both concealer and foundation since it is so thick. I have also worn it on camera and it looked nice. I just thin it is too heavy for normal, everyday use.
