Does your makeup stay fresh all day?

Or do you reapply?  If so, what do you reapply and how often?

 I usually apply powder around lunch time, but then by the end of the day, my makeup is mostly all gone again.

I use smashbox primer, bare minerals foundation, blush, and top it with bare minerals mineral veil.  I feel like my makeup should last longer.

    This is one of the main reasons why I stopped using mineral makeup a few years ago.  Liquid foundation topped with finishing powder lasts much longer on my skin.

    My makeup lasts well on me all day. The only thing I reapply is lipstick/gloss.

    Nars Eyeshadow Primer is AMAZING for making your eye shadow last.

    The other products I use: Lancome Teint Miracle or Dual Finish, Urban Decay Concealer Stick, Guerlain Meteorites, Nars Blush, Usually Nars or UD eye shadow, Usually Nars, Lancome, or Guerlain Lipstick/gloss.

    I use Garnier BB Cream, Tarte Amazonian Clay blush, UDPP, and either MAC, Bare Minerals, Wet 'n Wild, or UD eye shadow, and my make-up lasts through my entire twelve-hour shift. I do not touch it up during the day. I do have to reapply whatever I have on my lips often.

    I use Urban Decay face and eyeshadow primer with either regular liquid foundation or BB cream.  My makeup stays intact, except for my lipstick (but it's an easy re-application and I only bring a lipstick out with me).

    yes.  I only reapply the lips.

    I use mostly MAC products -- Studio Fix for foundation and Paint Pot for eyeshadow primer along with their shadows.
