Inglot AMC Cream Foundation – A Review

The one complaint I have about Inglot is their complete and utter lack of anything descriptive on their site.  If you try to look up product info or even shade descriptions, you’ll come up empty.  Which honestly sort of sucks for people who can’t just pop round into the stores in person. AMC Cream Foundation […]

Dinair Airbrush System – A Review

Ordering The Dinair website looks nice and clean and professionally designed.  In fact, from the time I ordered until JUST NOW, the site has actually been improved.  It’s organized with the sections across the top and then once you get into the shopping subsection the categories are down the side. You can order your system […]

Clean Finish

I always stop to look at the Rimmel display, if I’m ever close to one.  I tend to really like them, they make my mascaras of choice.  I was pretty surprised to find a new foundation, Clean Finish, there when I checked.  What was most surprising was that it was less then $4.  In fact, […]

Narrowing it Down

I got a LOT of great questions about my foundation overview.  A LOT, so much so that I’m hoping you’ll help me narrow it down to the THREE most important things you want to know.  I’ll automatically be covering : price/value shade range coverage/finish wear Of the following concerns, which are the top issue you’d […]

My First Illamasqua

RSW Round 2 – Day 6 I hear about Illamasqua a lot and quite honestly I’m not all that excited about it.  I have no idea why, but I do seem to hear they might be cornering the market on super-pale foundations. Illamasqua is the product of a heady mix of influences. Its roots stem […]

An Unscientific Method

The Hypothesis One night after having a particularly exasperating conversation with Jess about a particularly awful experience with a ‘pro’ behind a cosmetics counter, we put in motion a devious plan.  Disguised as make up ‘novices’ we planned to test just how much these pros know about not only the products they sell, but about […]

How do YOU apply mineral foundation?

I must get at least a dozen questions a week asking me how to apply mineral foundation. I’ll be the first to admit up until this year I didn’t even USE it, so I don’t think I’m an expert, but I know a lot of you out there are!  So how about YOU guys answering […]

Pixi Flawless Beauty Primer

In my never-ending search for the perfect foundation I will often try a few different combinations of products.  My theory is maybe the foundation WILL work, just with a different primer/moisturizer/powder. So many people had recommended the MUFE Mat+ to me, I honestly felt silly I couldn’t get it to work.  Was my skin that […]

Clinique, or ‘What is this new Devilry?’*

One of my more shiftless of friends recently got a new job.  Ever since I’ve known her she’s sort of floated through life.  Job to job, boyfriend to boyfriend, and then apartment to apartment.  She’s the opposite of me in so many ways, but we’re so similar it scares me. Her newest job, one she […]
