Powder

The golden rule is that for every liquid or cream based makeup, you apply a powder to seal it; otherwise it won't last very long.  Originally, I used the Napoleon Perdis powder, which is great.  However, if you use a translucent powder (finishing powder), it will have many other uses other than a cover-up powder that you are used to.  
You can use translucent powder to seal cream blush, cream eyeshadow, foundation, eyeliner, etc... Since it is translucent it won't cover the other product.  This powder looks completely white but when you apply it, it is almost colorless.  
I like to use one by MAC but I recently discovered one at Target by Sonia Kashuk (Barely There Loose Powder, $9), that works exactly the same, which saves you about $15!  If you like your powder with color, there is also a lightweight loose powder option by Sonia Kashuk that works wonders.
