I have a few that I’m currently cycling through: Tarte Rainforest of the Sea (my favorite), Dior Star Fluid Foundation (photographs really well and is forgiving when I have to remove/redo makeup frequently along the edges), and Lancome Teint 24HR (great wear, looks good in person). I use Real...
Some of them just don’t seem to do anything at all, while others definitely seem to help lock in makeup, so it can be frustrating figuring out which one works for you. Some spray a nice, fine mist, and others try to ruin your makeup!

Here's a look at the top 25 products reviewed in the month of May, plus a summary of how many products and brands were reviewed and a break out of ratings! :)
I think it'd be fun to go through what we used, purchased, resisted, and so forth each month, here are some questions:
Share your recent beauty purchases or rediscovered favorites in your stash (for those on low/no-buys!), chit chat about weekend plans, and learn a little more about each other!
I tend to reach for something with high SPF if I’m going to be outdoors for awhile regardless of the time of year, but here in Arizona, the sun is almost always blazing hot in the summer and I never, ever forget SPF or to add more from March through October.
