Ask Mickey: In Search Of Anti-Shine Products

October 23, 2008
Q. I am a makeup artist and would like to ask you to recommend an anti-sweat base to be worn underneath foundation, or an anti-sweat foundation. Here in Greece, we have a hot climate!

TI-0166-00-000.jpgOne of my favorite anti-shine products was introduced to me during my years working in special effects. The talent would wear heavy prosthetics and/ or wigs and we would constantly have to pat down their skin. A veteran makeup artist named Jim Kola introduced me to Make-up International LTD’s Face to Face Super Matte Anti-Shine. You can use over or under makeup and the formula is lightweight and not gel-like or filled with silicone like the newer products on the market. Good luck keeping shine-free in Greece!

smashbox cream eyeliner image.jpgSmashbox Cream Eye Liner can easily go to the top of our “products we love” list! While it does seem a bit different to use a liner that isn’t in a pencil form, this liner is definitely worth a try.

For starters, this doesn’t tug like a pencil, flake like a powder or run like a liquid, and will easily outlast your liquid and pencil liners. This award-winning, innovative cream formula provides customizable eye definition, and can even be worked into a contouring shade (when used with the appropriate brush) to add drama to the eyes for an amazing look that will keep you looking fabulous all day.

$22 each at sephora.com

PlantLove Eye Liner glides on so smoothly we were amazed this was a pencil liner. It blended well, lasted all day and didn’t smudge. It comes in six amazing shades, but we find ourselves loving (other than Black and Dark Brown) Bronze and Midnight Blue. $16, sephora.com

PlantLove Eye Shadows are highly pigmented and long-wearing. We love the variety of colors and blendable shades. It’s unbelievable that these are “green” products, but we’re convinced they’re fabulous! $20, sephora.com
