FOTD Almay Smart Shade Look

By Monday, July 21, 2014 , ,

I was recently sent a few items from Almay's Smart Shade SkinTone Matching line. Since I was new to the line, I thought I would play around with it a bit to get an idea of what I thought of it before reviewing the individual items. So far I am in love, Love Love Love. I created this light summery look on my first use and was extremely impressed with the results.
What I used:

Primer: Almay Smart Shade CC Luminous Primer - Complexion Correcting Primer
Foundation:Almay Smart Shade - Skintone Matching Makeup - Light - SPF 15
Concealer: Almay Smart Shade Concealer Plus Brightener - Light/Pink
LipGloss: Color and Care Liquid Lip Balm - Cantaloupe
Blush: Almay Smart Shade Powder Blush -Coral
Mascara: Revlon: Lash Potion Waterproof - Blackest Black (already in my collection)
The only non Almay product I used was my Revlon Lash Potion Mascara. The only tool I used was my Crown C427 brush to apply the blush.
 Overall I really love the CC primer, it leaves your skin with a definite cast on it but that is all part of the colour correcting. Once I applied the concealer and the foundation my skin looked flawless. I was really impressed with how light the foundation felt on my skin and how it adjusted to my skin tone so well.
The gloss is light and just gives a hint of peach to my lips, a perfect light summer look if you ask me. The blush is extremely blendable but has quite the kick of shimmer to it.
Overall I am really loving this light and summery look. Nothing fancy but my skin looks great and and all the products were easy to work with. Super happy.

Have you tried any of the Almay Smart Shade products yet? What do you think of them?
