Best spring make-up to hydrate without becoming an oil slick!

Benefit Cosmetics - Fake Up ConcealerBenefit Cosmetics - The Big Easy Liquid To Powder SPF 35 Foundation


The best make-up feels like no make-up. Am I right?!
So as spring is rolling around and you're ready to shed your heavy, dull, blah-blah make-up, I thought I'd share what I've been loving lately! 
Here's the back story: I love make-up that has a skin care feel to it -- moisturizing and natural. I want my make-up to even out my skin tone and highlight my features, but it has to look effortless. Though I love hydrating cosmetics, many tinted moisturizers and BB creams are best suited for drier skin types. Those of us with combination to oily skin have to be careful we don't turn slick by lunch with these products.
Luckily, I've found the perfect balance -- my favorite products for keeping me matte and hydrated all day! 
I am in love with Benefit's Big Easy Liquid to Powder Foundation. It goes on as smooth like Porefessional (which is totally great, by the way) and dries like a smooth primer/tinted moisturizer/mattifier. Your face will look even, smooth and soft. How do I even describe it? It's unlike any other facial make-up product on the market.
To make it even better, don't simply stop at the skin. Swipe on some of Benefit's Fake-up Concealer, a revolutionary hydrating concealer that makes under eyes look smooth, bright and soft. I know I probably sound like an ad, but it's so rare to find make-up that actually makes skin look better, as opposed to simply covering and unfortunately, caking. Not so with Benefit.
So go ahead and hop on over to your local beauty store to see why I'm raving like a lunatic about it! I guess you could say I'm crazy for Benefit.
