Revlon whipped cream foundation

I'm trying out Revlon's new foundation the whipped cream one. I am really really liking it I have dry skin but I like my foundation to last all day. The reason I like this foundation is that it leaves my skin airbrushed and healthy looking with a nice satin finish. It covers my little bit of redness on my cheeks and acne scars on my forehead. It does last through the California heat but I do notice the foundation  does fade a little bit in a few areas like my chin and forehead. So all in all this is become my go to foundation maybe even a holy grail product... well see. EDIT 7/29/2012 I can no longer wear this foundation it makes my face itch so bad which sucks because I love the finish wear and coverage.

Lipstick good as a cream blush too!!

I have dry skin so cream blush tends to look better on my skin. I am always on the look out for a new cream blush that is as good or as pretty as NYX creme blush in natural, and I may have found a second fav and it is Wet N Wilds 903C just peachy lipstick. It's not as creamy as an actual cream blush because its a matte lipstick but it has an awesome look on the skin and the lasting power is great! 903C i would describe as a smoked peach in the tube but blended out it is a soft peachy tint. I'm really loving this as a summer blush because it last and makes my dry skin still look glowy and healthy. A friend of mine who has oily skin also tried it and she liked it as well because it lasted the whole day. So my ending conclusion is if you have dry skin or oily give it a go so if you don't like it as a blush try it as a lipstick!
