Nice but small

I usually don't like tinted sunscreens because they never seem to match my skin tone: they are almost always too yellow. This one, however, is an excellent match and goes on easily, is not too heavy, and dries down to a pleasant finish. It's a thin formulation and needs to be well shaken before application. It would be perfect under makeup and is great all by itself.

I downgraded it 1 star as this is a very small product, only 1 ounce. You don't need a lot for your face and this would be great for travel, but you will need another sunscreen for your body.

Sticky stuff

This was a disappointment. The toner is somewhat thick and gives a good tingle so I'm sure it's exfoliating, but this toner leaves my skin feeling sticky. I also feel like my other night-time regimen products aren't getting past the toner and into my skin. At least it's not expensive.

Easy peasy to use

This is a very soft eyeliner pencil, perfect for tightlining. I'm not a fan of cat-eye looks so I can't comment on that, but the pencil makes a thin line that goes on smoothly, doesn't drag, skip, or pull my eyelid. The pencil doesn't need sharpening as the liner comes up as the pencil is twisted. It's not refillable so when it's out, it's time for a new one. In my opinion, this is a plus as you aren't wasting product by constantly having to sharpen it. The color (matte plum) is a nice dark color, noticeably purple but not bright or flashy. I'm planning on getting some of the other colors in the future.

Nice glow

This is a nice highlighter that blends well. I prefer it just on my cheekbones as applying it to my forehead, nose, or chin just makes me look oily. Be sure to blend well and don't over-apply.

Great brushes for a contouring newbie

I'm not a makeup artist, and I'm new to trying to do contouring. These brushes really make it pretty easy to do it with a nice subtle result. I use the black brush for contour and the white one for highlighting. I'm now getting a nice collection of Wayne Goss brushes and I've been very pleased with all of them!

Very refreshing

This is a lovely toner for oily/combination skin that refreshes and removes excess oil without stripping the skin. It's also great as an initial makeup remover, including eye makeup, but I think you need to cleanse as well; I wouldn't use it alone as a cleanser.

Love the SPF

Nice hand cream with some SPF. It absorbs fairly quickly and does not leave a greasy or slippery feel.

Not as expensive as it looks

I received the email announcement of this foundation and was quite interested. I am basically happy with the foundation I've used for the past 12 years, but decided to check this one out. The price is...breathtaking, to say the least. I decided to go ahead and schedule a consultation and try it out. Bess and Melissa were invaluable in assisting me to choose a shade and they got it perfect on the first try (I have light skin with a neutral skin tone and red hair). I received my samples and was overwhelmed. You only need a very, very small amount to get medium-to-full coverage and it goes on very easily and blends effortlessly. I was also astounded to see that it looked completely natural, not cakey, heavy, or made-up-ey. The last full-coverage foundation that I tried from another cosmetic company was just too heavy and looked fake (that stuff does work well for a concealer so it wasn't a total loss). The Le Teint leaves a soft feel and finish on my skin, not oily, and it truly lasts all day long without the need for touch-ups. Perhaps the best thing is although the price is staggering, you need so little that it probably costs not much more than the foundation I was using and provides better coverage. Save your nickels up and give this a try, you won't be sorry!

Nice for daytime

This is my third Rock n Kohl pencil and like the others, it's so very easy to apply: it goes on smoothly, doesn't flake or irritate my eyes, lasts until you remove it, and the sharpener actually sharpens the pencil without breaking the product and wasting it. I particularly like Barbarella Brown for daytime use, as Marlene Midnight and Veruschka Mink are more dark and intense. I really love these eyeliner pencils and I hope they come out in more colors in the future.

It actually works!

I purchased this sharpener after getting a Rock n Kohl pencil and the pencil was a little too small to work in the sharpener I had from another cosmetic manufacturer. Not only does this sharpener work well with the Rock n Kohl, it does a much better job on my other pencils that my old sharpener! The old sharpener tended to break off the point of the cosmetic pencils which only wasted the makeup and it never gave a good sharp point. The CT sharpener works GREAT with all my eyeliner/brow pencils, provides a good sharp point, and doesn't waste the products. I bought a second one for my travel makeup bag so I never have to be without it.
