Snapping up a 3rd one soon!

I love this whole brush line including the later released brushes to complete my collection of Sonia G brushes. This was my first high end brush collection and I haven’t looked back! I’m waiting on the Worker 1 to come back in stock, I have 2 of the Worker 2 brushes and I’m ready to order a 3rd one. Not going to take a chance that this one will also be backordered......

Best foundation for the price!

I bought this foundation as soon as The Ordinary came out with this, before it was out on other sites. This is not at a La Mer, Armani or Estee Lauder level and it would be a dis-service to compare it to any of those higher end products. I will say that for the money this is a very good value. I mix 1/3 of the 1.2N to 2/3 of the 2.0N to get a good match for me. I use this to work, and to run every day errands. I have dry skin and use retinoid products. I prefer the foundation coverage over the serum coverage. It is more of a satin matte. The serum coverage is dewy at first, then turns into a somewhat slick mess as the day goes on. The foundation is more matte and stays in place much better. I do not use The Ordinary primer, but prefer the Bobbi Brown face base instead. Pigmentation is very good, I don't have to use very much to get a smooth, semi-medium coverage. However, for someplace special or special occasion, I do prefer my La Mer foundation or my Tom Ford foundation stick.

No buildup lid primer

This is one of my favorite eye primers. I shake it and then put a little on the back of my hand and use a brush to pick it up and apply on my eyelid. Then give a second or two and it will be dry. Because it is thin, it feels weightless and I don't feel like product builds up as with some other primers. My initial thought is that its too watery and its a waste. I was wrong! My shadows stay and last much better with this on. If this was in a pump, too much might be wasted and sometimes pumps squirt too much out. The packaging is perfect the way it is......
