First, before applying any makeup, Vanessa prepped the skin with Lancôme Genifique, a youth activating concentrate that improves tone, texture and luminosity giving the skin a natural glow. To create a flawless complexion, Vanessa used both Lancôme Effacernes concealer and Armani Lasting Silk UV SPF 20 Foundation. She used Armani Fluid Sheer #2 as a highlighter and applied it with her finger to the cheekbone and brow bone. This gave the complexion a bit of added shimmer. Lancôme Color Design Cream Blush in Pret a Plum was applied to the apples of the cheeks for just a pop of color. Shu Uemura Cream Eye Shadow in Beige was lightly dusted on the eyelid and Lancôme Artliner in Noir was applied to the upper lash line. Several coats of Lancôme Ôscillation mascara were applied to the lashes for added length and volume. To compliment America's pinky/coral frock, Lancôme La Laque Fever gloss in Cyber Coral and Techno Brick were mixed together to create a high-shine pout.

Elizabeth Arden Pure Finish Mineral Powder Foundation Review
What Elizabeth Arden Says it Does: Pure Finish Mineral Powder Foundation SPF 20 comes in an easy grinder compact so you control just the amount of coverage you need. Turn to release a fresh layer of microlight powder with each application and grind precisely the amount you want to use. No more powder everywhere. new mineral makeup that takes the mess out of powder mineral makeup and gives you the purest, non-drying, perfect application. With its new fresh ground technology, just twist, swirl, tap and apply for pure perfection every time.
What I Say It Does: There are so many things that I love about the Elizabeth Arden Pure Finish Mineral Powder Foundation. Its easy to apply, the brushes feel heaven since they are so soft. The shades choices are wonderful and the foundation match was dead on. So its easy to find the right shade for your skin. Coverage is medium full but it could easily be full if you need more coverage. It leaves a slight glow to the skin and it could easily become my everyday foundation.
What I Didn't Like: The only downside is that if you're first looking at the product it might be hard to figure out how to get the foundation out. Since it has a twisting compartment that lets the foundation come out. Once you get the hang of it though it becomes like second nature.
