Thread: How strict is everyone on their make-up?

Since I already use an oil-free moisturizer normally, I didn't change a lot for P2. I think moisturizer would be the biggie change for most people.

I stopped using my foundation and just use finishing powder over the moisturizer. I also stopped using eye pencils and just wet a fine brush and apply a dark eyeshadow shade instead. But I still use lipstick, lipliner, mascara and my brow wax/powder stuff. I thought about getting a mineral-based foundation, but this has been working fine, so I haven't followed through on that.

Hair care that is not the leave-on kind is not a problem since you rinse it out right away, so I don't change that up except to stop using my detangler. I don't use body lotions or hand creams as a norm. If I need one, I use CornHuskers.

UGH OK, you really did make quite a few changes......I have a lot of unevenness and redness on my face and just cannot give up foundation! I will switch the kind I'm using and just hope it doesn't bring out all my wrinkles! My skin is pretty dry as well so I will find a different lotion. Man this is just sooooo strict!!!

I can understand wanting to cover up redness or blotchiness. I don't have much, so foundation isn't that big of an issue for me.

You might try the Bare Minerals type of foundation. Its not supposed to accentuate wrinkles. I've tried liquid foundations that were oil-free in the past, and found them chalking and dragging. Maybe they've improved them since then, but just my experience.

I didn't make any changes at all.
