If you live in Houston, you know the drill: you walk out the door looking flawless, and by the time you've parked, your face has had a meltdown. After 20+ years behind the chair at my Houston salon, here's the routine I actually use on clients (and myself) when the air feels like soup.
Moisturize, give it a few minutes to sink in, then apply a thin layer of primer, like our Camera Ready Primer. Give it a minute before you go in with foundation. That pause makes a real difference.
One thick coat is what slides off by noon. Press Picture Perfect Foundation or Flawless Finish Foundation in with a damp sponge, then add a second sheer layer only where you need more coverage. Prefer one step? Dual Powder works as foundation and powder in one. Use it with a dampened sponge for fuller coverage.
Press JA Hi-Def Loose Powder through the T-zone and under the eyes. Keep the high points of the cheeks glowing. Toss JA High Definition Blotting Powder in your bag for touch-ups.
On the lips, line first with a JA Lip Pencil, then apply Liquid Velvet Lipstick, which dries down to a matte finish. On the eyes, use Eye & Lip Primer under shadow and a long-wear liner like Pencil Eye Gel.
Mist Setting Spray in an X, then a T, and let it dry. Refresh midday.

That's it, girlfriend. Fewer, thinner layers and smarter placement beat more product every time.
Start with a thin layer of primer, build foundation in light layers, press powder only where you shine, and finish with setting spray. Heavy layers are what slide.
Yes, but only where you need it. Press a fine powder through the T-zone and keep it away from areas with fine lines so skin still looks soft.
Mist it as your very last step, and again midday if you want to refresh your look.
