Fab Five Friday: 5.29.2015

FAB 5 FRIDAY!!!

Once again hunties it is time for... Fab Five Friday.  Sorry so tardy.  Ms. Faux done fell down a flight yesterday and is in a Vicodin haze.  Actually writing this blog right now in said haze so please forgive, but I could not NOT do Fab Five Friday.  Tune in next week where this list is likely to be ice, rest, arnica gel, vicodin and the Real Housewives of New York marathon with a bonus of my couch.



Here are the top 5 products that Ms. Faux used last week to keep herself from scaring the children.



#1  Sephora Collection Perfection Mist Airbrush Foundation $28 at Sephora.com


What is it?

An airbrush foundation with an ultrafine mist for flawless makeup results at home.  Blur imperfections seamlessly and control shine for up to 10 hours with this satin-finish foundation. The weightless, micro-fine pigments of InstaBlend technology ensure color lays down smooth and seamless, so you can build to your desired coverage level—from light to full—for a flawless look every time. Mineral-rich red algae extract protects the skin from environmental stresses and helps smooth the skin for a soft-focus, airbrushed finish that lasts.

What does Ms. Faux think?  I agree with everything they claim and will go one further and celebrate this fine product for its ultra light feel on the skin.  Ms. Faux done do believe this to be better than Dior's Airflash Spray Foundation both in product and in price.  See her recent Cosmetic Cagematch Review.  This is Ms. Faux's new favorite summer foundation.

#2  Sephora Collection Pore Perfecting Primer Mist $22 at Sephora.com


What is it?

A pore primer in an aerosol spray that features a weightless, non-sticky, mattifying formula for up to eight hours of perfecting wear.  SEPHORA COLLECTION’S first-ever aerosol pore primer allows for the most refined and even application for a finish that primes, sets, controls shine, and reduces the appearance of pores and fine lines for up to eight hours. The universal formula pairs well with Perfection Mist Foundation or any foundation formula. 

What do Ms. Faux think?  Well first thing  Ms. Faux hates primer.  Hates it with a passion.  I generally find them heavy on the skin, sometimes sticky and just overall kind of gross.  Well this primer is none of those things.  It is absolute perfection in a can.  Make up is smoother and it doesn't feel like you have painted it on.  This is a hit and may be my new favorite primer.  I mean, it got me to use primer several days in a row and that never happens.

#3  The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Lotion $14.50 at thebodyshop-usa.com.


What is it?

A light, non-oily moisturizing lotion for blemished skin. For use after your Tea Tree cleansing regime.
  • Provides lightweight hydration
  • Easily absorbed
  • With shine control for a matte finish
  • Antibacterial action
  • Clinically proven to give clearer-looking skin
What do Ms. Faux think?  Well I did have a mild breakout where my glasses sit on my nose.  Problem that develops in warmer months due to sweat and rubbing from the glasses.  This lovely product is perfect because it provides very light moisture while the tea tree works at your blemish.  I used a couple days in a row and the blemish diminished significantly and my skin doesn't feel crazy dry like most blemish products cause it.  I love it.  Can't get enough of it.

#4  Nars Laguna Bronzer $39 at Sephora.com


What is it?

Nars Bronzing Powder is a true brown-based bronzer with a gold shimmer fusion that's excellent for creating or enhancing the look of healthy, glowing, tanned skin.

What does Ms. Faux think?  Well hunties I have never been a big fan of bronzers as they are generally to dark on Ms. Faux's pale skin.  This product however is the exception.  The product is build able and seems perfect for most skin tones.  For darker skin tones they have Casino which I feel would do the same.  In the tradition of NARS it is yet again another cult favorite along with Orgasm blushes.  Make-up artists swear by it.  It is often imitated, but never duplicated.  It is without a doubt, the best bronzer in Ms. Faux's personal opinion.  Tune in later today when Ms. Faux introduces a fairly close dupe, but still cannot dethrone the master.

#5  Make Up Forever Aqua Brow $22 at Sephora.com


What is it?

A long-lasting, smudge-proof eyebrow corrector that fills, defines, and lengthens brows.  Aqua Brow is a highly pigmented gel that enhances and reshapes natural brows. Its superior waterproof formula creates a strong hold while its high concentration of pigments allows for intense color payoff that will not fade. Aqua Brow’s creamy gel texture gives an even, natural result that will last all day.

What does Ms. Faux think?  Well hunties you know what Ms. Faux thinks about a good brow.  It is what perfects your face.  I actually discovered this a couple years ago and just reintroduced myself to it.  I like to switch around with my brow products.  Well I fell back in love.  It is so lightweight and blendable.  It makes the perfect brow.  I remember when I first discovered this product.  I immediately texted my good friend Ms. Sarah because she do love a good brow as well.  We both fell in love.

So there it is.  Ms. Faux's Fab Five Friday a day late.  So sorry and hopefully what I wrote above doesn't just say vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin,vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin,vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin, vicodin,
