Mine (most of my mistakes are not cheap! and a lot of my 'striking gold' is… hmm)
Obviously it's a very personal thing, will dependent on your skin type ,the weather conditions etc however I can say I've been using these through cold winter to humid summer (all this year , all UK) (apart from the Maybelline)
Bad - Urban Decay all nighter makeup setting spray - doesn't even make so called long last & waterproof eye makeup stop drifting not even over only a few poxy hours As for face, I don't need it for that… powder (below) is good enough with touch ups now and then.
Living Proof (from Space NK)- Salli Hughes recommendation… Prime Style Extender for hair - is not weather proofing, does not make my hair stay cleaner longer etc etc. Makes my fine `(but lots of it) often lank, hair more lank and greasy looking. Bought it for my fringe. Just makes is heavier and dirtier looking.
Maybelline Super Stay Better Skin foundation - goes on patchy, shows any dry bits, seems to 'pool' in my quite large pores, emphasising them, ugh
Good - just stocked up on Seventeen (aimed at teens but perfect for oily 40 something!) Phwoor paint concealer and their powder (forget name but it's matte and long lasting, black case) - at the moment it's buy one get one half price
Nars larger than life pencil eyeliners.. fantastic colours and first pencil to ever stay put on me. Not fool proof… it will drift after a while.. (i'm blinky, watery and oily) but still best i've discovered and i've tried most in nearly 30 yrs of wearing makeup!
