Miss Fabulous LV Question: I was wondering if you could recommend a full coverage foundation for my dark circles and blotchy skin like what you used for the photo shoot. I’ve never looked better than when you did me girl! Thanks in advance, and remember I live in a DRY climate! I need a good covering foundation, nothing really works for me and I will be 59 in two weeks. I need product HELP!

SIDENOTE: I have been getting ALOT of compliments for what foundation I use. Every time I walk into MAC, one of the trainer/managers consistently asks what is on my skin. It’s the Smashbox Halo Powder, (from the set in #2 listed above). With #4 foundation. The combination looks great on me, even in this Texas humidity. And if I have to get some extra-dew off my skin, I just blot with the nearest CLEAN tissue and apply MAC Blot Pressed Powder in Medium, $24.
