Thank you to everyone who entered our contest to win Dr. Perricone’s “No Foundation Foundation” and congratulations to Wooster!

Here’s what she had to say:

“I would like to try this because I have acne ridden skin with large pores-most foundations simply peel off my skin after a few hours, sometimes little bits of foundation flake off on to my clothes or the flakes simply sit on my face until I brush them off. I haven’t been able to find a makeup that works and does not have the flaking issue.”

We hope you enjoy your prize!

Beauty Chat has another great giveaway for our readers! We recently teamed up with Perricone MD, and one lucky winner will get the chance to try the “No Foundation Foundation,” formulated by Dr. Perricone.

This multi-purpose product provides natural translucent coverage, corrects skin undertones, instantly smoothes fine lines, and boosts skin’s natural moisture throughout the day. It also provides antioxidant benefits all day! Dr Perricone created the “No Foundation Foundation” in order to help keep the skin looking dewy and flawless, without the heavy matte finish that sometimes emphasizes the tiniest imperfections.

So how do you enter? Just leave a comment telling us why you need or want “No Foundation Foundation” and we’ll choose a winner on April 21st. And be sure to check out a review on another great product from Perricone MD in the next few weeks!

Contest is open to US and Canada residents.

Makeup is an obsession of mine, as I’ve mentioned in previous posts, and whenever I get the chance to try something new, I jump at it! Especially when it comes to liquid foundation since I can never seem to find the right shade to match my skin tone. I’ve gone through countless bottles – from drug store brands to department store limited supply makeup brands.

Thanks to FACE Atelier and their Ultra Foundation, I can get the perfect match. They offer a basic array of tones and two adjusters. Zero Plus makes the base darker, while Zero Minus lightens it up. No more waste!

My fellow Beauty Chatter, Audrey, tried out their Pout lip enhancer. Here’s what she had to say:

“The FACE Atelier Pout product worked fairly well. Although I did not see dramatic results, I could definitely tell that it had made a difference in the overall shape and color of my lips. The tingling sensation you get when you first apply it is light, but enough to convince you that the product must be working. You won’t look like Angelina Jolie with this stuff, but it will certainly make you feel a bit more sultry.”

FACE Atelier is cruelty free, doesn’t add scents or flavors to their products, and takes everyone’s unique skin type into consideration. Check out their website to see all the great products they offer.
