I’m a huge makeup junkie, so when I tried Smashbox’s new Halo Hydrating Perfecting Powder - I was in heaven. This powder is recognized by the dermatology board as a product that actually improves your skin. The Halo powder is oil- free and mineral based - with a formulation of pure gold, 48 minerals, 11 amino acids and a powerful peptide that delivers anti-aging benefits.
If you are prone to oily skin like me, start off with the Smashbox Anti-Shine on your T-zone, then follow up with the oil-free primer. Use a big powder brush, apply your Halo powder and voila! You are ready to Glow!
Available at Sephora and Shopper’s Drugs Mart.
