If you are used to a 'medium' shade in most other foundations, you'll find this one is much lighter. I'll be able to use this in the winter, but have to purchase 25 Deep Beige for summer (and I always wear SPF 50 and a hat). The foundation has lasted a full 10 hours without getting oily and that's a big plus.
I'm 61 years old and my skin is considered mature, it is combination/oily: large pores and occasional breakouts. I so wanted to love this product as the benefits sound like just what I need. While it takes very little to cover, is easy to apply, and blends well into my skin, within hours, my face looks like an oil slick. I'm not talking a radiant glow but out and out glaring sheen. I do not mind the price, as a little goes a long way, but only if it works for me. Sadly, I need to keep looking.
Serious Skincare
I read all the reviews and thought this mask was too good to be true. After using it once a week for the past month, I'm a convert. My skin is mature but oily. I use an older clean brush and a small glass bowl to prepare the mask and I leave it on around an hour. It's pulled out and healed my skin from blackheads, my large pores have diminished and blocked sebaceous glands are no more. My skin glows, is smooth and I don't have to wear foundation! I call it serious skincare because it is expensive, takes a little effort to prepare and apply, and does warm up upon application. It's a worthwhile investment in yourself.
My hair is shoulder length, dark blonde, thick, wavy and oily. I have it highlighted every 8 weeks. This is a thick, not watery, shampoo that helps my color last. I typically use 2 bottles of shampoo to 1 bottle of conditioner and it's the same with this brand. I love the smell!
Not Up To Standards
This brush should be taken off the market. Even after washing, bristles fall out; disgusting to have to pick them off my face and mess with the foundation. I have several of her other face / eye brushes and am very pleased with them. Not so with this one. Not worth the investment.
I have very light eyebrows and this product, along with It brush #12, are the perfect solution. A little product goes a long way and the way the brush is constructed, I'm able to fill in my brows without a great deal of effort. I have used gels, pencils, and powders but I love this. The formula stays put, even in hot, humid weather and I do not need to use brow gel.
This shade is a perfect compliment to Ombré Mercure. The formula goes on so smoothly, blends easily and stays put for +8 hours. I first put on the bronze moon, blend on my eyelid and into my crease. Then I layer ombré mercure next to my lash line, blend and it opens up my eyes. It doesn't take much product at all; especially during the daytime, it's better to have a light hand.
