First up, let’s talk cleansers. I have been using the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser and I really love it! I feel like it really gets my face clean without the dryness I get when I use a foaming cleanser.
I am still searching for the perfect foundation, but I do have one I’m currently using that I really like. I have, ahem, maturing skin, so I really needed something with good coverage that wouldn’t settle in to pores and wrinkles. For me, Make Up For Ever Ultra HD was a good match. It’s not heavy, doesn’t leave me oily, and pretty much stays where I apply it. I’ve even been wearing it in the heat and so far so good!
I hope you all enjoyed Amy’s introduction along with her current favorite beauty products. Stay tuned for introductions in the coming weeks of a few more makeup obsessed moms.

Hi Amy!
A huge Cerave fan here too.😌
Amy Coose says
I have super dry skin, so the CeraVe really gets my skin clean, but leaves it hydrated!
MarciaF says
Nice to “emeet” you Amy. I love your choices. I have the original Clarisonic which is telling me it needs a replacement so I’ll consider the Mia.

I’m telling you, Marcia, the fit works so much better. It really fits the whole face so much better.

From one makeup obsessed mama to another, welcome to the blog, I can’t wait to read your posts! 🙂

Thanks, Julie! I’m so happy to be here!
Stephanie says
Amy, every mascara I use leaves me with raccoon eyes. I’ve used primers and powder underneath. Help!!
Amy Coose says
Hi Stephanie, I feel your pain! I had the hardest time finding a mascara that worked until I tried waterproof mascaras. It does take a little more time to wash off at night, but I don’t have the issues of running, or flaking during the day. Hope that helps!
Jodi M. says
Hi Amy- I forgot about that mascara. I am going to have to pick one up. Also that Origins eye roll on looks like something I could use. I have noticed that lately I have puffy undereyes when I wake up in the morning. Looking forward to getting to know you better- welcome!
Amy Coose says
I love my Origins Eye roller, it feels so good and I feel like it does help with my horrid eye bags, LOL!!
Tamara Dungan says
I’m going to have to try that Origins out…my bags have their own zip code lately. Lol. You’re lucky to have that common interest with your teenage daughter. Mine has no interest at all in makeup. She is into skincare so I guess I’ll take what I can get 🙂
