Creating good make-up base with Urban Decay

urban decay base make-up

Whilst I own plenty of drugstore beauty products, when it comes to the perfect base I believe it's worth paying a bit more - since every foundation that I have rated highly has sat on the slightly pricier end of the scale. And one brand that has always been great for a good base is Urban Decay. 

I purchased the Urban Decay Naked Skin Foundation months ago and I am still going through it as a little bit goes a long way. It's a great 'work' foundation for the day time and stays on all day with a primer and setting spray added on top. If you like a thick and full coverage foundation this probably isn't up your street however for a light, natural-looking foundation I'm yet to come across anything better. 

I've blogged before about how amazing the Urban Decay All Nighter Make-up Setting Spray is and I maintain that it is a dream product. If I had to choose between only a primer or only a setting spray - I'd choose this setting spray! However remember to apply your mascara after you spritz your face.

I've recently finished the Pore Perfection Primer Potion. Arbonne still does my favourite primer of all time however this is my favourite high-street primer. I find the tube quite annoying when the product goes low (every other primer I've bought was a pump) and I do find that it's a very small product given that UD usually has generous product sizes.

Urban Decay are an amazing brand with high quality products however if you follow me on Twitter/take part in #cfbloggers you'll know that I'm trying to wean myself off cf companies with testing parent companies. So you'll see less Urban Decay on the blog.

Have you tried any of these products? Have any other recommendations for similar products?
