Hey guys, I just have to rave onward about my most favorite foundation in existence, Fast Finish Foundation stick by Fashion Fair.
I've mentioned this foundation many times, and I have yet to be persuaded to try anything else! I honestly think it's the best foundation in the world..it's just THAT good.
Fashion Fair is a make up line that originally debuted in 1973. It was made primarily for women of color and that is still the company's target demographic to this day, as the foundations come in 21 different shades!
Now for those who are familiar with Fashion Fair, you know it's a bit stigmatized...most of the younger generation will tend to avoid this line because they think it's only marketed towards older women.
But in my opinion, you can't go wrong! I was able to find my perfect skin tone match with this brand, which I haven't be able to do with any other brand. (including well known ones like Make Up For Ever and Smashbox)I use the Fast Finish Foundation stick in "Pure Brown", which has a bit of a creamy texture, but it also comes in Souffle, Powder, liquid, and press cream from which offer different textures.
I usually buy it from the Fashion Fair website or at a department store like Macy's or Boston Store for about $28-$35, but I've also seen it on Ebay for as low as $11!
It always leaves a smooth and matte finish and doesn't smear. It lasts pretty much all day, though my only issue is that it can transfer a lot depending on how much you put on.
If you still aren't convinced, the pictures will tell all!
Worked out perfectly for when I did my rainbow eyes!♥
(used e.l.f ultimate eye shadow palette for colors)
^lmao xD
While I'm at it.....I may as well also mention that it provided an excellent look when I celebrated my older sister's birthday earlier in May as well!
So to whomever may be reading this....I STRONGLY encourage you to give this foundation a try, ESPECIALLY if you're someone of color! Trust me, you won't regret it! I've been using it for as long as I've been wearing make-up and I have yet to be let down.♥ ♥
I also wanted to share my photos from this past weekend. Panda had the weekend off so we took it upon ourselves to travel to the Milwaukee lakefront!

I had the most amazing time with him...this month on the 3rd we will have been together for a year and a half, which is pretty frickin' awesome if you ask me.
We also recorded a para para video of me as well..panda was behind the camera, and I REAAAALLLLY want to post it but there's ONE small issue....
....it's not really that good. :C
*starts bawling*
Okay, I guess it's not "wtf are you doing, never do para para again" type of bad. I've got the moves down. It's just...I noticed soooo many mistakes since I haven't practiced in forever. AND it was my first time really being recorded as I was dancing, which kinda made me super nervous. >.<
The thing is I still kinda wanna put it up and just label it as "practice" or "rehersal" and maybe disable comments....but at the same time I'm DEATHY nervous because people on youtube are horribly cruel sometimes, and also I don't want to offend those who are excellent Para Para dancers. <=/ *sigh* urrrgggghh dilemma, what should I do?? Oh woooee is meeehh ='< Fellow blogger members and friends...please loan me your kind advice? :3
I am planning on doing another vid soon, with a routine that I know a little better lol...hopefully this one turns out a lot better but I still have no clue if I should upload the current vid or not...any advice would be greatly appreciated!♥ ♥ ♥
Well that is all my friends! My birthday is in just a few more weeks (June 19th) and I already have loads of stuffed planned! I'll fill you guys in as soon as its done with...until then, see ya!♥
