I ran out of this today, and panicked to find that no one carries it in my area anymore! I was so scared it had been d/c'd! But it's still available online and is still listed on Aveeno's website, so I breathed a sigh of relief. Seriously, there is nothing else like this. It has the highest quality shine enhancing and conditioning ingredients without any of the heavy …Read more
This is a great all-in-one palette to go quickly from bare to glowing and natural in about 5 minutes or so. I have fairly light skin, maybe second to lightest in most foundations, and the concealer and yellowish "brightener" both work well for me. The concealer isn't the best for my dark eye circles but it does tone them down acceptably. I love both the cream and the powder blush …Read more
This is my current everyday facial sunscreen. My other favorite facial sunscreen, UNT UV Total SPF 50+ (see my review) is probably more UVA protective than this, but I have to order from overseas, so I save it for when I'm getting more direct exposure and in the summer. The Resist Super-Light is very nice, even when I apply the full ~1/4 teaspoon to my face, it still dries to just a slight …Read more
I had high hopes for this product. The worst part: the darkest color was all wrong, has way too much warmth/red for my pale skin and black brows. On darker skin, the warmth/red might not be as noticeable. But when you are as pale as me with dark brown hair and black brow hairs, no warmth is tolerable, it looks super-fake and wrong. As to the formula, it's not the fast and easy type of brow …Read more
This is my HG facial sunscreen. The search is over. I am forever grateful to geektastic for spreading the word about this! One correction: I have verfied with UNT that it is Tinosorb M, not S, which is used at 4%. Which is good, because it is a little better at coverage in the longest UVA than the Tin S.
I use this under my HG foundation powder, Lunasol Skinfusing, with a dusting of silica …Read more
Me: pale, NC20-ish skin, normal to slightly dry (slightly oily in summer), with dark bluish circles in my (sunken) tear troughs and inner eye corners.
I finally broke down and bought the Bobbi Brown corrector in light peach. It's taken some practice, but finally I think I have found the method that works for me.
I use a very light moisturizer (Cerave at the moment), and follow …Read more
I have fair, yellow-undertoned skin with thin skin around my eye area. This results in bluish (bordering on purplish) circles concentrated in the inner corners, stretching up toward the inner eyebrow and down under my eyes.I wanted to try Bobbi Brown's corrector but decided to try some less expensive options first. I really want something that is as natural looking as possible. This one is …Read more
I was looking for a temporary replacement for Paula's Choice Sheer Matte Tint. I found that this Pixi TM, as well as the new Too Faced BB Cream, have nearly identical main ingredients (and formula) as the PC SMT, the difference being some added botanicals and the mica for illumination/glow. I am very impressed with the Pixi IT&C, it actually matches my fair skin tone (in the lightest …Read more
I wanted to add the ingredients list above, but for some reason, it won't let me. So I'm adding them here:
Talc, aluminum hydroxide, methylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben, sorbic acid.
HTH someone! Took me forever to find the ingredients online!
After reading all the reviews here, doing board searches, and reading reviews on other websites and forums, I decided that this is a hair color that either you love or hate, it either works wonderfully for you, or totally sucks. There doesn't seem to be alot of in-between.
So I decided to give it a try. I have very resistant white hair, and my natural color is dark brown. The white …Read more
