FOTD - Edward Bess Sheer Satin Cream Compact Foundation 03 Nude, Edward Bess Ultra Slick Lipstick 15 Demi Buff and Kiko Milano Soft Focus Concealer 01


Today's FOTD uses an ultra-natural foundation and concealer: Edward Bess Sheer Satin Cream Compact Foundation 03 Nude and Kiko Milano Soft Focus Concealer 01. These products honestly make you look like you're wearing no makeup - you can click and enlarge any of the pictures for a detailed close-up.

I primed with Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Mousse Base SPF 50+ PA+++ and applied the Edward Bess Sheer Satin Cream Compact Foundation 03 Nude with the sponge included with the compact. This foundation doesn't provide a lot of coverage (you will need concealer), but gives you a dewy, luminous natural finish. I concealed with Kiko Milano Soft Focus Concealer 01, which comes in a pen just like YSL Touche Eclat. However, it's not shimmery like Touche Eclat and works as a very natural looking concealer. I set my makeup with RMK Pressed Powder N 002.

I kept my eye makeup neutral and natural looking - I'm wearing Benefit Bunny Hop Creaseless Cream Shadow as an all over base, and accented and contoured with NARS Mykonos Cream Shadow. I used a tiny bit of powder to set the shadow. I lined my eyes with YSL Eyeliner Effet Faux Cils in 3 Noir Bronze. I finished with two coats of L'Oreal Lash Architect 3D Waterproof.

I blushed and highlighted my cheeks with Suqqu Face Color Palette EX-01, after applying some NARS Laguna Bronzer to warm up my complexion.

I'm wearing the sheer, creamy Edward Bess Ultra Slick Lipstick in 15 Demi Buff, a pinky neutral.


Hubs and I went to Henley on Thames (yes, home of the famous Regatta) for lunch at a riverside pub. We sat next to a roaring fire and enjoyed some pub grub. Cold as it was, there were rowers on the river - they train all year round!

Thanks for reading and hope you liked today's look!

  5. Ooh, pub grub sounds fantastic, especially when paired with a roaring fire and that view!

    The Edward Bess foundation sounds really interesting! Sephora has started carrying Edward Bess's color cosmetics, but not the foundations, unfortunately :(
