As a mom of three, I can identify with anyone who says “I don’t have time for that” when it comes to self-care. We almost feel guilty for taking care of ourselves… I get it! I lived in the lane of drugstore makeup essentials (BB cream, blush, powder, mascara and lipgloss) for years, but when I saw a friend post about the confidence she found in a new brand called Maskcara, I was intrigued. Can you really spend less time and money on a high-quality product that makes you feel more beautiful than your tried-and-true makeup? I was willing to give it a try.
I was color-matched by my friend, and once I placed the initial order, I was in love. Not only did my new (tiny) compact do everything that my hoard of random products did, but the simplicity of Maskcara just blew me away. I no longer had to sift and sort through a graveyard of once-used makeup, and in fact, I wanted to rid my life of it for good. It did not bring me joy, so I thanked it for its service and tossed it in the trash.
Whether you start small (like I did) with a four-color quad, or go all-in with a Double Decker, the simplicity of having your whole face in one beautiful compact will change your life. You not only save time by having it all in one hand, but the versatility of Maskcara Beauty’s iiid foundation never ceases to amaze me.
So how does it work?
Main Highlight: the foundation to even skin tone, conceal blemishes, and prime eyelids.
Contour: chisels out cheekbones, slims forehead, jawline and nose, lines and plumps lips, fills brows, and can be used as eyeshadow.
Lip & Cheek: acts as blush, lip color and eyeshadow (Nude and Plum will always be my favorite eyeshadows in a pinch!)
Brightening Highlight: adds “light bulb effect” to the main parts of your face/draws focus.
Illuminator: adds eye-catching shimmer to cheekbones, brow, cupid’s bow, bridge of nose and lips.
HAC brush: applies all elements of iiid foundation seamlessly, using minimal product.
That’s it! Couldn’t be simpler and my only regret is not finding Maskcara Beauty sooner! If you’re ready to simplify your makeup routine, I’m happy to get you started!
