Weekend makeup routine & Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation Review {Sponsored}

Time out.
I know this blog is 99% about house and home décor, and (letsbehonest) pictures of my dog... but I am the blog owner here--and I do what I want!....and I have other likes. So please excuse this short home decor & DIY break while I rave about something super girly. Makeup.  

Don't worry, we won't go crazy since this is only the first of possibly more beauty posts. Today I share my weekend beauty routine. It's simple and short:

• Wash face
• Apply moisturizer
• Brush hair, put in pony
• apply foundation
• brush on a dash of bronzer
• Put on yoga pants and zippy
• head out the door!

I was given Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation to review. I am one of the very first to test Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation - it doesn't even hit stores until January 2014! To be honest with you, I was skeptical to try it at first. I have been a mineral foundation girl for quite some time. But, I love trying new makeup and beauty products, so I was up for giving it a shot.

Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation

I tried the True Ivory color. Although I am Italian... I am seriously fair skinned, especially in the winter when there are less days spent outside in the sun. 
The color blended perfectly with my skin tone.It was easy to apply, I just used my fingers. But anyone who uses brushes or sponges wouldn't have a problem either. The foundation is smooth and just the right amount of creamy. Not to mention, it was feather light when I applied it. It didn’t feel at all cake-y or thick on my skin. My face was immediately flawless. 
Best part: at the end of a day of running errands and even a nap on the couch... I was still pleased with my skin. No blotchiness, nothing creasing around my eyes.

I will most definitely purchase this as something to wear on weekends—when I want to slap on a little base color and go out the door. Worry free makeup is my best friend on Saturday mornings when I need to get out the door to run errands!

This makeup is a winner. I’m thrilled with the turn out, and hope my sample can last me until it hits shelves in January! If you like worry free, light as air-nothing there, but still full coverage makeup. This is for you. Have you tried it too? Let me know what you think!

Do you have a different makeup routine on weekends too?

Have you ever been skeptical about a makeup and turned out loving it?
