For reference I have oily acne prone sensitive skin
I have PCOS so i get cystic acne
1st pic –
1: Laura Mercier Tinted Blur Balm in C02 – I am going to finish panning this and I already have another one in stock! This has become my everyday base product, so skin like and stays on all day! I have oily acne prone sensitive skin!
I bought this Feb 28, 2026 and it is almost completely panned!
2: CoverFX Pressed Mineral Foundation in F2 – not going to repurchase. It was Okay. Kind of like MAC Powder foundation. I found it heavy for daily use. Took me 1 1/2 year to pan.
3: Laura Geller Baked Balance and Brighten in Porcelain – used to be my holy grail (before Laura Mercier). My perfect shade match is actually Fair but it oxidizes on me so i mix Porcelain & Fair. Love this powder. I now use this on top of my Laura Mercier balm (a very very very thin “setting powder” layer). I have an opened Porcelain & Fair right now that I am finishing. Will repurchase! I used up 2x Porcelains & Fairs last year I used to use it everyday as my base.
2nd pic-
Rom&nd Glasting Melting Balm in Kaya Fig – love the shade of this! My lips but better. I am finishing up the same lipstick in Mauve Whip shade. Kaya Fig is the better color for my lips. This is a standard lipstick/balm, pigment is not as obvious (which i like) and looks really natural.
Cons: my hair sticks to my lips.
