Smashbox Foundation Primer

Feb 20, 2008 - Went into the Ulta the other day and decided to spruce up my make-up bag. Went in looking for new blush and came out with: Smashbox camera ready concealer Smashbox High Definition Healthy Fx Foundation Smashbox blush in proofsheet and the "Try me kit" which included SB foundation primer in classic, creme eyeliner/browliner and brush, photo op under eye illuminating, and lip gloss.
