This ELF Mineral Face Primer is $6.00.  I found mine at Target.  This primer is clear, and has a smooth silicone feel once applied onto the face.  It gives your face a nice base before foundation and powder.  It helps your foundation last all day.  Your face make-up won't slide off with this on your face.  This is the first time that I have used this primer and I like it but my only gripe is the amount of product in it.  There is .49 OZ, 14g.  The packaging makes it seem like you have so much product when you don't.  Once I am finished with this I will be trying out some sample primers I had gotten from various brands and see if any of them preform better. 

Sephora 10 HR Wear Perfection Foundation.  This foundation has a pump so that's a plus.  It's always a bummer when your foundation doesn't have a pump.  And if you're spending $20.00 on a foundation it better have a pump!  I really like this foundation.  It matches me pretty well.  It's a light to medium coverage with one pump.  This foundation is very build-able. I probably won't buy this foundation again though.  I'm always looking to try different foundations and this isn't a holy grail foundation for me.  



I use this Rimmel 2 in 1 concealer and highlighter as a under eye concealer.  It gives my under eyes a luminous finish.  I use this on my forehead, on my cupid's bow, and my chin.  I like it because it adds coverage to those spots and gives it a highlighted effect.  I will re-purchase this in the future.  It is easy to apply and blend out. 

This Benefit Erase Paste is a very thick concealer but it covers up those dark spots and blemishes like a dream.  This does cost $26.00 so I use it sparingly.  You don't need much though so it will last you a while.  I use this just to cover up some spots.  

I have repurchased this powder at least 3 times.  This Rimmel Stay Matte powder is amazing!  It is a light powder that doesn't make you look cakey.  I love this powder I can't say enough good things about it.

The Breakdown
Overall:  This is what I use on a day to day basis when I'm doing my entire face for the day. I have very acne prone skin and I have a lot of red acne break out and scars and these products cover them up just fine.  Some days I use my It Cosmetics Bye Bye Redness if I'm super red but mostly I use these products.  They seem to work for me and I am glad that they do.
