Liquid -Lancome - Teint Idole Fresh Wear
lalou3 8/28/2010 9:26:00 AM
Love this! I have been wearing the regular Teint Idole Ultra for years, but sometimes, especially in the summer or on casual weekends, it is just to heavy. I had been going without foundation and just wearing concealer and MUFE HD powder. Got this one in the same shade I wear in the ultra, Ivory 2(C). The coverage is just as good as the ultra, and it dries to a nice satin matte finish. I may substitute it permanently for the ultra, I will have to see in winter. It wears like iron, even in the hot weather. My favorite thing about it is that it is very thin, and feels just like liquid pigment. It is not greasy in any way. I wear SPF 30 under it because I need more than SPF 15, and it still is not greasy. I would not say it is a tinted moisturizer, it is more like just the pigment from the ultra, without all the other ingredients.

Fragrances -Yves Rocher - Pur Desir de Pivoine

Peony is my absolute favorite flower and I have been disappointed by many peony fragrances. Yves Rocher peony line was recommended to me by the ladies on the fragrance board as a very true single note peony. I ordered the complete peony line: the body wash, lotion, spray, and antiperspirant. Tried all together for the first time today, and am thrilled!!! The scent is so true, and I can't believe it. I don't detect any rose smell to this, it is perfect! It smells clean, not sharp or powdery. My only small complaint is that the antiperspirant and lotion have mineral oil. I would be willing to pay a little more to not have mineral oil. This was also my first order from Yves Rocher. Their products are so inexpensive. Can't believe I found a great peony line this inexpensive and much better quality then more expensive brands. Yves Rocher also always has great sales and very low free shipping quota ($15-25) all the time, but they ship from Canada so it took just under 2 weeks for delivery. Comes in to the US through NJ, so if you are in the New England area it would probably be a little faster. Highly recommended to all peony lovers! HG!!!!!
