All three are standout products IMHO.

Last lip color you wore? I tried on Butter London’s liquid lipstick in Toff at Nordstrom. It was pretty nice.
Last foundation you wore? I’ve been trying out La Roche-Posay Effaclar BB cream. I’ve decided that it’s better as a primer with foundation over. It really does a nice job of blurring out pores and blemishes, but it’s very sheer, which is good actually because it’d be too dark otherwise. Most primers bother me (I think it’s the dimethicone) but I can hardly feel this one.
