My perfect base

Long before BB cream, CC cream or their cousins such as DD cream, etc conquered the world, I have already been a big fan of tinted moisturiser.  I have tired Laura Mercier, By Terry, Chantecaille, Clarins and Shieido throughout the last 10 years.  Finally, my heart goes to Bobbi Brown SPF 15 Oil Free Tinted Moisturiser.
Having normal to combination skin and living in an extremely humid place - Hong Kong, I cannot bear any sticky feeling from skincare or cosmetic products, my skin would actually act out its irritation - I could feel the itch if the pores are blocked.  Thanks this sleek tube of Bobbi Brown tinted moisturiser, the light texture give me a sheer coverage without leaving any grease.  My skin tone is even instantly, my pores and fine lines are less visible.  In winter, I wear it with my fingers.  In summer, I love using a sponge to make the coverage even lighter.

Julique rose silk finishing powder is another item I repurchased throughout the years.  You would love its tempting rosy scent.  Simply a stroke with a powder brush keeps my skin silky yet matt the whole day (it seems a bit contradicting, hope you know what i mean =)).
