I’m one of those people who abuse the snooze button. So my chances of making it to work on time are slim if I want to start the long lasting, liquid foundation charade. My solution to the problem has always been a loose powder. Innoxa has won my heart and been so good to me over the years when choosing those precious moments of extra sleep.
