Bossy’s Favorite Things.

Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer.

Bossy has been using this for a couple of years. It’s very subtle and isn’t greasy or drying and is SPF 20 and that’s about all you could ask of a tinted moisturizer, which Bossy uses in lieu of foundation.

   Laura Mercier’s tinted moisturizer definitely rocks. I love it and it’s worth the price tag!

   I use it too! Only, I use the oil-free with SPF kind. You’re right, it’s not the cheapest by far, but it lasts forEVER — I think I use, like, a tube a year.

   Has Bossy tried the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer? Love love love it, especially during these drier winter months.

   I use it too!!! But I am so scared of it running out ( it being SO expensive) that I hardly use it and it is probably expiring in the drawer as I type.

   A few years ago, I switched from Clinique foundation (never could find the right fit for me) to Mineral Fusion powder. It’s a layer of moisturizer, then a layer of high SPF moisturizer, then a dusting of powder, and spritz of moisturizing mist. I like it most of the time, but this sounds like a great option for ease and the sake of my sanity.

   I am assuming that Laura Have Mercier is in a different category from Wet-n-Wild, which is what I use on lips, eyes and whatever else needs tending to, well most whatever else, where most whatever else = I can’t imagine what else Wet n Wild could fix on me.

   Bonne Belle Lip Smacker is my one and only essential due to the fact that I appear to be addicted to it, but otherwise price pretty much drives my make-up selection.

   And nonchalance. With a side order of laziness.

   Ok, I scored the Laura Mercier yesterday, but really do I need a brush for it?
