Hay fever V makeup

0 replies

Lapsedcataholic · 30/04/2023 13:40

In recent years I've developed hay fever, not too bad - my eyes and nose stream but thankfully I don't get the itchy eyes.

So I wear minimal eye makeup and I've found that an eyeshadow base, waterproof eyeliner and EL Doublewear mascara work for me.

But... I find I wipe my nose so much that any foundation comes off my nose and my upper lip. I always dust lightly with a setting powder after applying but it just doesn't last. I have good skin with minimal lines but I like the finished effect of foundation, plus I need a bit of colour as I'm very pale.

Has anyone found a base/foundation that lasts? Or a powder that actually sets? I've tried setting sprays but have decided that they're a waste of mone. Or maybe not? Any recommendations gratefully received!
