A Bulletproof Eye Shadow that Doubles as a Liner ! #Bonus: Gorgeous Garnet Color!
This is a RAVE product. Cream-based shadows don't stick unless you try this one. It's not in a pan, but a chubby pencil format. Love that it travels well. This color is fabulous. It really works well with green eyes. I use it as a liner first (allowing it to set) and then apply another light line on top of it to smudge up and then trace one in the crease to smudge down. It's wonderful. Use more for more intensity of color. I like that it really hangs in for the day. Wish it worked as lipstick too!

Love CT, Love the Texture but WAAAAY Too Fragrant.
I like products like this. Ok Scratch that, I am a sucker for products like this. I like the texture of this. I like the way it feels soothing. I do agree that the product should be massaged into the skin to be absorbed (as most skincare products should be.) It provides a luminous glow. ( I should blend this with some full coverage matte foundations to alleviate the lack of slip and provide a bit of a glow.) However, the scent is a bit much. I am not a fan of hugely fragrance products unless it's in my hair products- but with limited fragrance spread. This can be too much and would not recommend this being used in tight quarters. Otherwise lovely but I also find that I am not committed to it to use daily or even weekly unless I think about it. It's skincare with a lower case "s" . It's not what I call anti-aging. It's a rich moisturizer that provides a glow.
Great Toner but.. Still Required More "Something" to Remove Mascara!
I like the way the Sensibio H2O feels on the skin. I like the way it smells and the texture. It's not the toner I grew up using and I stopped using toner a long time ago because I have rosacea. It's light and not overly drying. However, it doesn't remove all of my makeup. I used 6 cotton pads to remove makeup (and I folded them up as shown in the video) and I still had mascara on my lashes. Either I do a "bulletproof makeup" or something else is up. But the product is nice and would be ideal during warm days in LA (which lately is most of the time)
Non-Disclosure. I paid for this product. It wasn't free.
Beats Most BB/CC Products on the Market
I like wearing lightweight foundations.. typically liquids but they don't have the SPF or the coverage I want or need. I tried the Cushion Compact from IT Cosmetics and it was lovely but building coverage shortens the life span of the product. Enter the CC cream. SPF 50! great coverage, cream foundation that smooths easily and doesn't fall apart or dry up-- inside or outside. I wear this daily .. mixing it with a highlighter to give me a dewier finish. I am on my second tube..... it really lasts!
