Glowy and Devine!

Anything that can revive this tired teachers face in the morning is a winner in my book! It gives a beautiful glow and blends effortlessly. I like to layer a pop of the matte side over my bronzer and then blend the gele side over the back higher part of my cheek and a bit on the forehead, but they look great individually as well. I might have to get a couple more!

Get it while you can!

I hardly need another palette, but I heard this palette was creamy and richly pigmented and I fell in love with the color story so I caved and grabbed it. I’m so happy with it! Like other people have mentioned, some colors, mostly the deepest ones, act like cream shadows in that you need a dense flat brush to pat and blend as you would with a cream shadow. I always use a primer to help them. Then I take a more powdery transition shade to blend out the edges at the end. Every color is beautiful and usable. I’m happy to have this in my collection.

So Good!

I have a lot of face products from different brands and I am always searching for a certain quality of textures and colors and this delivers everything I want in a palette. It’s luminous and buildable, but really works well with my light to medium NC30 olive skin tone. It’s so finely milled, just a dream to apply and blend. If you look for fine high quality products, you need to give this a try.

Your lips but better

I feel like I have other lipsticks which are very similar in color, but this is a good formula and it lasts fairly well. Hardly any long-wearing lipsticks last more than 2-3 hours on me and this was no exception, but that might just be me. The great thing is it’s so close to a natural lip color that as it wears off you can’t tell. Packaging is beautiful and classic.

Incredible!

I love a good body oil, but I wasn't sure how much I'd like the scent so I decided to just take the gamble and try it. I don't mind spending the Benjamins for something really good, but I had tried his Portofino body oil and just didn't like the scent of that one. This is totally worth the money! Wow! It smells so beautifully summery, not too sweet, not too masculine, just a beach warm coconut and sea salt type of scent. I think it would smell great on a man or woman. It's a clean sexy light fragrance. It gives you a subtle shimmer, but it's not so glittery that you couldn't wear it to work, school, or the grocery store. I love the scent and moisturizing feel so much I'm going to have to be careful or I'm going to be going through this like water! It's that good!

Volumizing to fine hair

My hair was looking pretty limp and a bit TOO clean to do anything with. This gave it just the right about grit and volume to give a fresh tousled look with some body and control. I got the small size, but sill probably buy the big one.
