I recently discovered the magic of Graftobian HD Glamour Cremes through bridal makeup artists on Instagram, so I am very excited to share this review and tutorial video today. These 5-well palettes of richly pigmented and affordable full coverage foundations are definitely worthy of the hype and praise they have received on the web. I was pleasantly surprised to see how well they lasted and how smooth they appeared on film, considering the Glamour Cremes are of a thinner cream consistency. Do moisturize and prime the skin before application as well as set with powder for best high-definition results. The texture is unlike most designer base products, so just remember to gently stipple on the products with the MAC 130 over a tinted moisturizer or tiny bit of liquid foundation and then press (not wipe) the BeautyBlender across your face!

**The color behind this look was requested by a subscriber on Facebook. This brightening, more minimalist approach to color suits the heavier full coverage foundation look best. There is a lot of layering to create the base, so bear in mind this is NOT an everyday foundation routine.. it is ideal for special events such as photo shoots and weddings!**
