Great Natural look

The first time I tried this I used an Artis oval 8 to apply, and was not impressed. Then I saw others say using fingers worked well. Using my fingers this foundation blends beautifully into my skin. I have combo-oily skin, pores by nose, and some redness on cheeks/chin. Using my fingers this gave me a my skin but better finish. Feels great on my skin, and is not dewy or matte, just natural. I do use a setting powder as I always do since I get oily in t-zone during day. This foundation wears beautifully on my skin, and does not breakdown like others. I don't get that greasy look with creasing using this foundation. It is my new favorite. I am hopeful using it longer I will see some skincare benefits as well.

Favorite oil!

I have normal/oily skin but went a little heavy on AHA's that caused some dryness around my mouth/chin area. I had a sample so I gave it a try. I have tried other oils from Sunday Riley, Mila Moursi, Ole Henriksen to name a few. I only need about 3 drops for my face and may add a tiny more on dry areas and laugh lines. My skin completely absorbs this oil and does not remain greasy as long as I do not over do it. It feels amazing and has a pleasant light rose smell that is not overpowering or chemical. I purchased the full size and it has become a staple in my nighttime routine. Due to my oily skin I do not use this during the day, but dry skin types may like this as it truly is a dry oil that will absorb fully. Once this sinks into my skin completely I top it with my night cream and wake up to soft skin that feels moisturized not greasy. I have not experienced any break outs or clogged pores using this. It is pricey but I need so little that it will last me a long time.

Love these!

I own 4 of these currently. They are easy to apply and blend. I always use a eye base/primer as I have oily lids and pigment and find theses extremely long lasting. They set fairly quickly so I blend as I go. The color is pretty and pigmented, and does not crease on me. You can use these as a bold eye liner or with a eye line brush for a more precise line. They come in a twist up pen that is a great size for gripping. The colors I have: 1 Topaz-pretty brown with some shimmer that can be built up for more color or sheared out for base; 3 Khaki- a neutral green with slight shimmer; 7 Havana- deep brown more matte than others with No shimmer great liner or contour shade; 11 Copper- reddish brown copper with shimmer my current favorite of the 4. I love these for a quick look when I just add to my lid blend a bit and maybe add a little highlight. Or you can create looks with several, they blend well together. Of the 4 I own Havana is the trickiest to blend but I mostly use it for a liner which works well. Swatch L-R Topaz, khaki, Havana, copper I am guessing I am around a NC 35-40 in pic for reference.

Great mask

I purchased this along with the treatment bowl, and brush. It is one of the best clay masks I have tried. I make sure when I do use this I can shower to remove as it can be a little messy. It takes a good 45 minutes to dry on my face. It leaves my skin so soft and clean, not dry at all. I use it once a week and it is a must in my routine now. I have oily/normal skin and this works wonders for me. If you like a good detoxing clay mask this one is pure luxury.

Not for me

I purchased the glow kit and this is one product I haven't sent back. I have since worn it 3 times thinking it may work better depending on my base, sadly has not helped. For me it gives my skin a wet look which I do not like. I am normal/oily and do not like my skin to look wet, but hoped for a brightening radiant effect. I find her glow is more of a wet look without being wet. So for my oily skin just not the effect I am looking for.

Not for my skin

I have normal to oily skin, and get oily in t zone and cheeks. This foundation is light to medium coverage. It looked really pretty when I first applied it, but as the day went on I looked like a greasy mess. It is a glowy foundation that as it wears gave me a wet look I don't like. I think for more normal skin or even drier skin it would be nice. For me I have a natural "radiance" and this just magnified it to look super oily. It just wasn't for me, but if your skin works with this it would be a beautiful radiant look. Sadly had to return.
