Gold Star:  Urban Decay All Nighter Foundation

​Sephora loves me.  So does Ulta, Blue Mercury, and anybody else who sells make-up.   I have tried a lot of &*^%....but in trying a lot of ^&*%, sometimes you find a winner, and a lot of losers.  If I can’t look like Christie Brinkley looks at 63, why bother.
 
Foundation has been a big problem for me.  I had teen acne and coupled with sensitive skin, left me with pock marks and redness.  I don’t think they are horribly apparent, but I know they are there, and unless  you catch me at 8:00 at night, or 5:00 in the morning, YOU should not know they are there.   I have bounced around foundations like a loose chick looking for her sugar daddy.  When I was done, I was done, but here is one with some staying power:  Urban Decay All-Nighter (love the name).
 
With the help of a beauty blender and foundation brush, this foundation goes on effortlessly, and the best part, impeccable coverage.  Now, I use a lot of magic to keep my look intact from sun up to sun down: primers, powders, spray, etc, but even with the that, your foundation should be able to withstand breakfast, the supermarket, Starbucks, pick up, play practice, spit up, potty training, basketball, dinner and everything else you come across in eight mom hours.  This does.
 
With a review and praise, also comes compromise and honesty. This foundation is great, but it oxidizes after about an hour, and looks unblended and about three shades darker than your face….SHREK!!!!   I thought I had it looking groovy till I went home and thought I had been to a tanning bed and forgot…The trick here is to go down, literally about 3 shades than you normally would pick your foundation color.  It should be well-blended and photo-ready if you pay attention.
 
And, like it’s name says, the ALL NIGHTER can be on as long as you want it to, so get a good make up wipe, or maybe two, and take it all off so you can pull your all-nighter with your pillow…and not an ALL DAYER with your washer.
 
All in all, a great find, and a GOLD STAR recommendation ...caveat and all.
