    Okay, who thought this one up? Love the way it makes my foundation (Mary Kay Medium) glide on and STAY on. I've tried lots of the expensive brands of primers and most make my face break out and...

    I tried the Monistat based on the reviews I read on MUA. And overall I think it is a close match to my favorite DHC Velvet Skin Coat. There are some differences. It seems the Monistat is a bit...
