It’s started today, I’ve entered the “non spread zone”.
This is a period of around 4 -5 days before my time of the month where my foundation does this weird thing of just sitting on my skin and becoming an absolute nightmare to blend.

Am I alone in this phenomenon?

My skin looks normal enough, I maintain the same skin care routine, don’t use anything different product wise but applying make-up becomes a headache. Application is streaky and uneven. When I do eventually get my foundation looking reasonable and go to add finishing powder or bronzer it looks hideously obvious, dry & talcy.

Help! :(

How about going for a tinted moisturiser then powder?? Or use fix +, spray it onto a brush and buff it on over your powder it does a great job anytime my makeup looks powdery!!!

I have been trying a tinted moisturiser but I'm afraid the coverage is just too light. Trying to cover up almost thirty years here :P

I'd be temppted by Fix+ but I'm trying to be more cautious about my purchases, I bought Strobe Cream and think its the biggest waste of money tbh. Hmmmm maybe I should see if someone wants to swap for that, I know loads of other people rate it… x
