This is a bit too dark for my pale skin. I think it would only work if you are naturally tanned or have a tan. I do not recommend it to pale ladies. Additionally every time I use this it irritates...

I've been watching this product for a few years now, but previous reviews discouraged me. I passed by a B.E. boutique and couldn't help but go in. I have to say that I got wonderful service from...

Finally they have a diverse selection for women of color. Our skin is so complex that you cannot just have 2 dark colors. I always wanted to like BE, I always though I should like BE but I always...

My sister's addicted to QVC so she gets this periodically and while I like the eyeshadows, I find the foundation a bore so far. The line has been extended to include a greater range of colors, so I...

Yes it matches my skin tone quite closely. However, I guess it doesn't agree with my skin. I broke out all over my chin which looked even worse when I tried some clearasil products to clean the...
