top blush: make up forever;
best acne product (spot treatment): serious skin care sulfur spot treatment (similar to mario badescu’s spot treatment, but works better as it literally shrinks the size of pimples overnight, while mario badescu’s takes a couple of days); and
best moisturizer: clinique repairwear day lotion / cream and dr. denese spf 30 tinted oil-free day cream.

as for the comments about dior show mascara, i admit that i’ve been using it for over a year now, as it is the best mascara i’ve found for increasing volume and length, although it does begin to flake after two months of use, making it a rather expensive habit…i’m waiting for someone to finally manufacture a mascara that does what dior’s show mascara does, but actually lasts for a full three months before flaking.

Hi Thalia! I totally understand where you’re coming from. Our view is that we want to release it shortly after the year closes, because if we were to start it later on, then the results would end up coming out in March of the next year!

I remember doing the survey and noticed that there were options for MAC collections that weren’t even released yet. It got me thinking that maybe the survey was put up a little to early to review the “best of” in a year when it wasn’t even over yet. Is it possible that we can review the “best of” for one year a month after that year is over?

Hi Ash,

You can definitely use both. The mineralize skinfinishes (naturals) are great for setting makeup, but I would use it without the Studio Fix powder (since the powder sets the Studio Fix Fluid).

Try Clinique skincare, they are really good about getting you the right products for your skin (take a skin test on clinique.com) and they’re all for sensitive skin.

hey christine is it safe to use studio fix fluid with studio fix?also what do u think about the MAC mineralize powder?is it worth?i do really want to achieve a flawless face from eyes to lips to the whole face itself like the stars.how do i get that dewy fresh look can u please give me any tips?it has happened b4 and i cant seem to recreate it as much.
really all i want is that dewy,illuminous look that would stay fresh and not make me look sweaty or too sweaty at the end of the day at least?
also what moisturizer do u think would be good for an AA skin that would bring the makeup out.i feel oily in my t-zone and feel my skin is very senstive especially my face but yet i did a skin analysis by a loreal skin analyst and was told my skin was dehydrated.I just want my skin to look smooth even when i am not wearing too much make up.I know u can’t really ans all my ?s but i would appreciate any little help…
