Hello & Thanks for the HELP!   I just bought the Sephora Moonshadow baked palette "In The Dark". I love it! But I need help finding another palette (affordable, please!) that I can use for everyday eye shadow looks.   INFO: I have light, sensitive, skin with random freckles and moderate acne. My natural hair color is VERY dark, but it is dyed golden blond. I have medium blue eyes. This picture is from my wedding 3 years ago; I am usually not this tan-even in the summer months! My avatar is most accurate.   I am open to any suggestions on fun colors-Summer ROCKS! I would like a palette, but whatever anyone can suggest for me helps. THANKS SO MUCH!   Alicia    

I have been using Jurlique Soothing Foaming Cleanser which I really like because 1. It is a very natural cleanser and 2. it has a soothing and not overpowering smell and 3. it doesn't make me break out like some other natural cleansers have (for example boscia botanical blast) . The one real issue that I have with my Jurlique Soothing Foaming Cleanser is that it does not have enough cleansing power to remove my make up/ the day completely. This time around I ordered the balancing cleanser but yikes! people were not exagggerating in reviews about the smell. I don't think that  am going to be able to use it with how intense it smells. Does any one have any suggestions for another cleanser along the lines of the Jurlique Gentle Foaming Cleanser but with a little more oomph to it and or another product that I could use in conjunction with the cleanser in order to make it more effective? Thanks!!

I am pregnant and cannot (and don't want to) use tanning beds this summer...I know I will get sun though, and even with sunscreen I will end up getting a tan line. (halter top) I want a quick tan that will last a couple days for each of the weddings, especially the one in late August when I know I will have tan lines.  (The other one is next Saturday.)  Which of these products do you think I should get?  I know it depends on my preference; to be honest, I haven't used self-tanner since high school 10+ years ago so I don't know my preference. http://www.sephora.com/self-tan-bronzing-lotion-P2 61321   http://www.sephora.com/self-tan-bronzing-mousse-P2 61322 http://www.sephora.com/self-tan-bronzing-spray-P26 1323

I'm 28, but I'm just now starting to think abiut using an eye cream.  What prompted this is that I've noticed my left eyelid has a little more laxity to it than my right one.  It's probably been like that for quite some time, but I'm applying eye make-up more carefully now than I used to.   I've started researching eye creams that could help tighten my upper eyelid, but many instructions state to apply the cream on the eye contour or the C-shape.  I don't want to put something on my eyelid that shouldn't go there!  I did come across Dr. Dennis Gross Ferulic + Retinol Eye Serum, Dermadoctor photo dynamic liquid dymanic eye lift lotion, and algenist firming and lifting eye gel.  Of the three, The Dennis Gross was the only one that specifically said that eyelid was OK, so I'm leaning toward that one.  Is there another product that would be better?  Does it make sense for me to use an eye cream just because the skin on my left eyelid has more "give" to it than the one on the right?    I don't really have other skin concerns around my eyes.  Under eyes are dark (genetic, so nothing can be done about that) but not puffy.  Only very fine lines under my eyes.  No crows' feet.  I think that's everything.  Sorry for the novel.

Now that I've heard all the hype about Kat Von D's foundation, I want to try it but i'm unsure of the colors...  I use Nars tinted moisturizer in Seychelles and powder foundation in Sedona and Syracuse.  Those have a yellowish-brown undertone and the Kat undertones don't really seem to match up.  Can you suggest something that might work well?

hello im 21 years old and i get oily in my T-zone about mid day and i to break out in that area if pores get clogged or have buildup i used to wear mac's liquid foundation and i continuously broke out and so i switched to bare minerals but it tends to make me look chalky and it doesnt cover hardly so i am wanting to go back to a liquid but i do not want it to clog my pores or be bad for my skin i want something that i can wear for a few hours a day and not get any break outs my skin is pretty sensitive

I have to order it online and I need to know what color i should order. I always get nervous ordering online. I normally get 125 sand in make up forever HD foundation, but i wanted something with more coverage. 

I am olive complected, and although I get very pale in the winter, I tan super easily and get quite dark. I have been using and loving Dr. Jart's Premium+ Beauty Balm, but after just a few sunny days, it has quickly become far too light. I'm willing to switch brands if need be, although I would also be happy to stick with Dr. Jart's. Also, I have tried and do not like Dr. Brandt's. I have dark auburn hair and green eyes, if that matters. What brand or brands might work for me for summer?

Hey guys..I NEED HELP!!    I have pretty dark circles and super oily skin underneath and above my eyes. I can't seem to find a concealer that works for my skin. I NEED SUGGESTIONS!! I'm half asian so I do have the oily asian skin.   I've tried Bobbi Brown concealer and it just cakes and eventually wears off.   I can't wear bare minerals products because it makes me breakout...   I've tried benefit's erase paste and fake up and they both crease so badly that I literally have to blend it every 5 minutes or less and wear off very fast as a result of my oily skin.    I've also tried the new NARS creamy concealer but it's even worse and I can't find a tone to match my skin..   I also had a hard time matching tones to the lancome, smashbox and tarte concealers.    I'm very saaaaad and don't like looking like a panda. HELP PLEASE!!!!!

I thought I'd post this here to get some feedback to hopefully help me!   To give you all background, my skin is super sensitive and dry.  I have tried a ton of different things, but what's truly working is First Aid Beauty or Nude on my skin.  I gently exfoliate twice a week and am still dry at times.  When I put on my foundation it's still dry on the crease of my mouth and my chin.    This is what I'm using:   Nude Perfect Cleansing Oil Nude Pro treatment serum Nude Cellular Renewal Moisturizer Nude Perfect Polish First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream   Illamasqua Skin Base Foundation Makeup forever HD invisible cover concealer Makeup forever HD Microfinish powder Tarte 16 hr wear bronzer   Any thoughts you have would really help me out!  I can't stand these dry patches anymore!  It looks like my skin/makeup is flaking off.

Hello! I have tried MANY mascaras - Dior Blackout, Benefit they're real, Bare minerals voluminousness mascara, Lancome Hypnoses Star, MAC plush lash... ETC. I am looking for a mascara that will NOT smudge, I often get black lines on my eyes just below my brows from my mascara, it is awful.   Can you recommend a few mascaras for no smudges and doll like, plush lashes? thanks!

Ok, I have dark circles around my eyes. Mostly underneath and along the side of the bridge of my nose. I am medium skin tone (or am I tan... no clue lol) so I don't know if the circles are "blue-ish" I do know that the circles have gotten darker with age, and no matter how much rest I get, they are always there. The circles are fairly easy to cover with concealer, but I don't wear much makeup... any suggestions on an eye cream?   Thanks!!!

Does anyone know which shade in the Koh Gen Do Moisture foundation is closest to Nars Sheer Glow in Santa Fe (or YSL Touche Eclat in B40)?  I am trying to figure out which shade to order.  Thanks!  

I have been using the Clarisonic Mia for about three months now and at first it worked wonders! My skin does look better but I find that there are tiny blackheads forming all over my face that I never had before using the Mia.I rarely get actual pimples or whiteheads now which is great...but the blackheads could be a bigger issue! I'm wondering if it's bringing them all to the surface and will eventually get rid of them or if I should just discontinue use of the product and see what happens!

Hi, I just finally started using makeup (at age 19 lol) and I'm trying to figure out what will go good with my type of skin since I have eczema. I started using bare minerals in warm dark. What would look well I suppose. I am a big eyeliner person anything edgy and colorful I like. Any suggestions or tips for a beginner?

 

i wanted to purchase the beautyblender pro but its still not available in stores or online.does anybody know when its gonna be released? 

Hi! I have fine, color-treated hair, which breaks slightly at the temples. Is there any shampoo out there that will give volume, anti-breakage without stripping my color?   Also, are BB creams good for fine hair?   For the face do CC creams so anything for wrinkles. Thanks much@

What eyecream would you recommend for very sensitive, dry fair skin? I'm allergic to retinol, alcohols and anything harsh. I'm using L'Occitane Shea butter cream, but it's not working like I would prefer.

So I went to my local Sephora and found that Nars sheer glow foundation has two colors that kind of match me Medium 1 and Medium 2 how do I figure out which one matches me best? I'm always confused about how to do this. Can anyone help?

I have puffy, purplish brown undereye circles and nothing seemed to cover it until i discovered nars radiant creamy concealer. is it better to purchase another shade as a concealer/highlighter?i find that the shade honey corrects the discoloration but i need a lighter shade just under the puffy area to diminish it. Any suggestions?should i go for the lighter shade in custard?

Hello, I am trying to find something anti-aging for my mother. She has turned 55 and has become quite unhappy about how she looks and it's breaking my heart. She has sun spots and her wrinkles have deepened. She is also very very dry and sensitive. She's looking for something simple like a moisturizer that will help address these concerns and I may be able to get her on a serum. If there is also a great coverage, highly pigmented, creamy concealer or foundation for the sunspots that would also help. Any advice would be much appreciated especially if the product recommendations come with application tips and tricks.

Help!  I have Lancome's Dual Finish foundation, and I apply it with a damp Beauty Blender.  Occasionally, I need to conceal my dark circles, but I'm unsure when to apply concealer.  Since I'm using a damp applicator, do I put concealer on first, let it set, then apply the foundation?  Or, does my foundation go first?   Thanks for the help!!

So I've heard nothing but good things but still need help deciding. Which is your favorite???  dr brandt pores no more VS benefit porefessional   or any others??

I am new to makeup, I'll admit. I bought the makeup forever complexion starter kit (love it) but I want to know more. I also have been told that for the eyes natural and purple tones are better for me.

  I started sampling the Philosophy line bc I just turned 30, had my second child and out of nowhere I became dry in my t-zone and developes skin colored bumps all over my chin. And due to lack of sleep and round the clock nursing the baby my skin has dulled. So far the cleanser and original Hope in  A Jar has worked really well for me and I had several samples of the HIAJ Night, which I have to admit, all 3 has actually really made such a noticeable difference in my skin. With the Clinique 7 day scrub, it seems to be a od combo BUT I can't decide if  should spring for the night cream or if there is an alternative I should purchase instead...$48 is pricey.    To recap, I want to address early signs of aging that I definitely have, dryness and lack of radiance. Serums break me out....feel free to suggest any other skincare lines to try and the products. Thanks!!
