NBR: any makeup junkies out there?? Advice

I'm in a wedding soon and it's outdoors, in about 90 degree weather!(yay, not) 
I'm a wedding crier anyway, plus humidity and possible rain. I am curious if anyone knows a good 'spray/mist' you put on your face to lock in my foundation and powder?! Or a great primer?? Going for more natural eye(tan/shimmer/light brown eye shadow and waterproof black lashes). Then, I want to get a lip liner and lipstick that stays put!!! 

Any favorites?? Set spray?? Lip liner and stay put lip color of stain?? Or just any other favorites??? I love make up. The wedding is super small town and we have to be at hair at 7am, so I can't get my makeup done for the day by a professional. Wish I could!!!!

  • Oh boy, what fun weather!

    Smash box makes great primers. Urban decay makes a nice make-up setting spray and Aveda makes a colorless lip liner- so you can wear any shade of lip stick with it. The lip linear is nourish-mint lip definer. 

    Hope that helps! Have fun at the wedding!!

  • Smashbox primer oil is my new favorite, I've been using it for about 3 weeks now. Don't let the fact that it's oil scare you. I have combination skin with acne and this stuff is moisturizing, seems to be doing more for my acne than anything else I've ever tried, and makes my makeup look dewy and natural. I use Makeup For Ever foundation. And I use the Urban decay all nighter setting spray. I never used lip liner but I looove makeup for ever's lipstick. Also, urban decays primer potion will make your eye makeup last until morning, no joke! M
  • Smashbox photo finish primer and don't waste money on setting spray. I'm a licensed cosmetologist so I know all the good products but I don't spend money on setting spray because all you need is hair spray. Spray your face with your hairspray afterwards and you're good to go! It will last all day
  • I know E.L.F makes a super cheap version...it's like $6. I've used it and it does pretty good! 

    @chelseajeanene that's an awesome idea! Does it clog your pores at all?
  • I use the Smashbox primer, and then finish with the Urban Decay setting spray, and their eye primer is great too! If I'm being lazy, I can sleep, wake up and my shadow and eye liner is practically still in place...pretty happy with all!!  :)
  • Lipsense by SeneGence! The color last 4-18 hours and you just reapply a gloss. I never wore lipstick or gloss before Lipsense but I always wear Lipsense now because the color lasts all day. It's the best. Smudge proof, kiss proof, waterproof. You can layer colors to create your own color.

     I use bareMinerals foundation if I need full coverage but day-to-day I just use bareMinerals powder make up.  Does the hairspray last with just the powder or just foundation full coverage type ? Just curious!  I have a really sensitive skin  and bareMinerals is the only brand make up that doesn't make me break out!  Feel free to share any other awesome tips. HAHAH do you have a favorite lip stain that stays in place?

     Where do you buy this at, please?

    I'm going to have to try this urban decay primer potion for eyes now! I looked it up and I guess it's amazing!! Thank you! 

     I have really sensitive skin and the only foundation and powder that doesn't break me out terrible is bare minerals!  I have heard great things about make up forever brand but I never want to have a break out and chance it. Ugh. Sensitive skin sucks. Lol
  • @cait040415 nope! It just sits on top of your makeup and doesn't come in contact with your pores like that 
  • @LoveLee85 I use it with bare minerals powder too so it works perfectly fine either way! I have t found a lip stain that I love honestly, I like matte lipstick the best and I think that last better

    I love NYX soft matte lip cream. It lasts a long time and is a perfect matte lipstick. Bought it in a hurry for a wedding and I love it.

    Here is the website for LipSense. You have to buy through a consultant. There are several in my town. You can search online to find one near you. 
  • ^thanks for the info!! 
  • Urban decay has an awesome setting spray. Stay away from silicone based primers. They"melt" more in humidity. Also tarte has a nice amazonian clay base foundation. I use it with a setting powder. Holds up great and looks natural. I HATEEEEE heavy. This product is so perfect. 
  • Thank you!!!
