Foundation Finisher... or not.

Hey All -

So I’ve finally got my 5 minute face down to a science.
I usually use the Smashbox CC Cream or the Clinique Even better as the base. I’ve gotten more compliments with the Clinique Even better, I suspect it matches my tone better.
I follow up with a light blush, clear shimmer eye shadow, eye liner and mascara. All set and done under 5 minutes.

Here is the issue, I touch my face often during the day.
At my desk I have a habit of thinking with my hand on my cheek or forehead.
My problem is the makeup comes on on my hand and then on my clothes or white desk.
Rather embarrassing and artificial feeling.

I tried the MAC spray, this left my face way to shiny for everyday.
I also tried translucent powder, this left me feeling cakey.

Any other tips and tricks?

UD All Nighter makeup setting spray...no shine/oilyness at all..it's my holy grail in Texas summers

hmmm I'm not fan of setting sprays. I shall try on your insistence.
Sephora?
Does Ipsy or Birchbox sell? I want my points.

Is there a code?

I have the UD setting spray and it's nice. I like the Laura Mercier translucent powder much more though.

^^ My mom has that, maybe I'll try that before I spend money.
I didn't see no discounts on UD yesterday.

Tried the setting spray.....didn't work as well as the All Nighter.
Tried Kat Von D's setting spray.....didn't work as well as the All Nighter.
Tried MAC's setting powder.....didn't work as well as the All Nighter.
:D

just sayin'

Try asking Sephora for a mini size of the All Nighter.....I know they had an issue with supply on the full size bottle so they were giving out the sample sizes about two months ago. And I also saw the mini size of the setting spray so they may have the All Nighter in the mini too. Will be cheaper if you are concerned about wasting money.....but trust me.....you will use it.
