Michelle Howard loves Clinique's' Superbalanced... →
Michelle Says: it really does’t look like I am wearing foundation while having buildable medium to full coverage. It also adjusts with your oils thoughout the day. At first I’m a little dry then a little oily later. I never look flaky or oily!

Jeannie loves Laura Mercier's' Foundation Primer →
Jeannie says: It helps my foundation go on smoother, last longer, and improves the look of dry/flaky areas. Shake it up before you use it - it separates! Also not the best in terms of oil control, maybe the oil free one would be better for that (I haven’t tried that one myself so I can’t say)

Everyone seems to be obsessing over pointy nails as the hot new trend, with even Khloe Kardashian trying to be both sweet AND pointy with her Easter mani. We think it’s a little much (plus, our nails are never strong enough to get that long) but we thought we’d ask— what do you think of this new trend?
Would you rock pointy nails?
