I got the Matte-Wear in Beige 5 because I have oily skin.

Hmmn.. I don't really like the packaging, I guess I squeezed it a bit too hard while trying to open it so it got messy.

I originally use the Missha M Perfect Cover BB cream because I like the idea of skincare and cosmetics rolled up into one. But BB creams are pretty heavy in general and wears off easily in our kind of weather. Although I love the shade so I still use it during cold months.

Then a friend suggested the Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation, so I tried it. It is really light  (in terms of the feeling in the skin, in other words you can barely feel you have foundation on) compared to the Missha BB Cream and it has generally good reviews for oily skin like mine. My only complain is that, the darkest shade available here is still very light for my skin. So I still have to use a darker powder when I'm using it.

Then Mary Kay Timewise Liquid Foundation came along. If you've tried Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation and think it's light, Mary Kay Timewise Liquid Foundation is even lighter. It has a matte, powder like finish and the shade was just right for me. It sets quickly though so you have to work fast. I use a buffing brush to blend it in my face.

I used Mary Kay Timewise Liquid Foundation in Beige 5 here. I also used Mary Kay Creme Lipstick in Toffee and Mary Kay Eyeshadow in Sweet Plum for this look. :)
