stila all day 10 in 1 HD Beauty Balm
I have been
trying to avoid foundation this summer as it has been soooooo stinkin’ hot. Me, stinkin’hot and foundation
do not play well together no matter how much primer I use. So I have been
trying to keep my application light as possible on my face. So I have been
testing out a few beauty balms. This time around, I am reviewing stila all day 10 in 1 HD Beauty Balm
which I received in my June Topbox. Originally I thought it has only a couple uses
but I ended up getting a week plus of wear out this little tube.
From stila.com:

My thoughts:
I used this
beauty balm over my Neutrogena SPF and regular facial moisturizer then topping
it with some MAC Mineralized Skin Finish Natural. For application, I have used my
fingers and a flat top stipple brush and found both methods work quite well.
The stila all in one HD beauty balm did
feel a bit dry when it came out of the tube. So I applied a bit and then spread
it out before moving on to the next part of my face. It has a powdery
like finish once it has dried. My skin felt silky smooth
afterwards.
