Flawless yet undetectable

Picked up P310 + P210 out of curiosity as I am loving the cream foundations (Olive 1-2 best match); end results are virtually identical, so choice works per texture preference. Reviews help me greatly before purchasing, so details: RCMA is a pro line and can take an attempt or two for a non-pro to finesse application, but also deliver pro level results. Watched pro application videos on Youtube and helped a lot. My method: clean skin, skincare absorbed, no primer. Mix a tiny amount (less than half pump) each P310 + P210 back of hand, dab on forehead, cheeks, nose, chin, tiny bit more under eyes- blend with barely damp beauty blender, then firm downward strokes entire face with concealer brush. Wears 12+ hours with/without powder, but love RCMA No Color loose or Amber pressed powders for extra blurring (also the only powders I can wear). Looks freshly applied at 12 hour mark-liquid may have a slight edge over cream for longer wear but both are great. Covers deep blue-purple eye discoloration, no color corrector or concealer needed. Zero caking, creasing, rubbing off-RCMA foundations fuse with my skin; no detectable layer, just beautiful flawless skin. Add a little color back (blush, bronzer) ala Wayne Goss recommendation; I also chose the color per Wayne's demo on Youtube as my skin is similar in tone. I would highly recommend going to RCMA website and reading the undertone descriptions for N-P-G; choosing the golden G series based on Olive 1-2 best in creams would have been the wrong choice. Lid doesn't lock but dispensing requires a firm press so I have no leak/spill worries; product fresh and uncontaminated in sleek, simple, elegant packaging. So far, every RCMA product I have tried has been top of the line results I've never been able to get over the years with numerous drugstore to high-end products, reasonable pricing- highly, highly recommended.

Excellent-

Additional review as Beautylish customer service was wonderful re: leaking packages review. The Repair product works the same left in for 2 minutes or 20 minutes. Stretches mandatory hair washing from every 2 days to at least 5 days still looking freshly washed. Somehow sleeping after using Repair prevents my usual crazy matted I always get in the back from sleeping! Great body and my hair stays where i style it, in particular a little 'arch' over my forehead that i like for my side part. I can brush it sleek or fluff it up with my hands and it stays with zero stiffness (short bob). Up to 5 stars with the Farewell Frizz sample - gives extra smoothing of the last few stray wisps. Crazy beautiful shine- my hair glistens, especially in artificial light/sunlight. Will review Detox shampoo once used.

Package came with spilled products

Bought a set each for my son and myself; both of the Scalp Revival tubs were unscrewed and product spilled into the pink holder and all over the sides; bought because I loved the Don't Despair Repair mask sample I had gotten recently. Very disappointing and too much of a hassle to return it. Both inner silver lid linings all crumpled up as well- how about tubes or a plastic seal over the product under the lid.

Flawless

Very happy with the RCMA kit; the only thing lacking is a good color corrector for my really dark undereye circles-still experimenting with the more pink and peachy deeper tones that are in the kits, but someone with circles less obvious and discolored than mine should have zero issue covering them easily. My son came over to me and asked if I was wearing makeup, then touched my face and peered at me closely to try to see if I was and still couldn’t tell other than that my skin looked great. I tried the recommended scooping a small amount onto the back of your hand and warming it method, but I kept rubbing it into my back of my hand and not having much to apply. I prefer applying with a foundation brush or finger direct to face and letting it warm on my face, or rubbing a little between 2 fingers and then swatching that onto my face- it still blends out beautifully. I got the kits because I figured it was more cost effective than trying to figure out which single or set color I should try and choosing wrong once or multiple times; I have skin with pink, peach, and olive tones. While Olive 1 and 2 are exact matches, I found I can use many other shades in both kits and because it melts so beautifully into the skin, they all actually look fine as well-so the palettes wont be wasted. I use it for concealer, foundation, eyelid primer, highlighting, contouring, and blush, and see it would be fine as a super-natural eyeshadow one and done as well. Waiting for the RCMA no color powder to stock so right now I am either not setting it or using a light peach-pink Viseart shadow around my eyes, which also works fine. Just came in from 4 hours of ‘commando gardening’- hidden brambles had taken over some areas, and my face seriously looks like I just applied it, or rather like I have beautiful nearly flawless skin despite some sweating and rubbing and not being at all careful. I will never use another foundation, for sure. I compared my Nars to this and there is zero comparison side by side; Nars looks like I did a nice foundation application while RCMA looks like I woke up with nearly flawless skin. This is the best ‘makeup investment’ I have ever made and only wish I had found it many years ago. Zero smearing, rubbing off, slipping, or wear shows until I remove it, and also zero creasing or gathering in lines; it just creates a gorgeous, totally natural, complexion. Aging skin with sun damage and all kinds of interesting random pigmentation has totally met its match.

SMOOTH AS SILK

First Viseart palette. As soon as it arrived I quickly swept on a few colors just to try it. I sat back a bit and my mouth dropped open as I saw I had effortlessly created a beautiful pro-level 'look'.my first ever pro-level look. The most unique thing is Viseart sits so differently on the skin that it looks totally natural and like it is a part of my skin rather than something i applied-regardless of color- very hard to describe. I think perhaps i have never actually successfully blended shadows before this try-on, and i finally achieved a beautiful, subtle uplift of my outer eyes that i've never been able to before. I ordered several other Viseart palettes and the shimmers and metallics are beautiful and understated (softly applied as i do) and somehow make eyelid folds and imperfections disappear. Viseart shadow has an ethereal quality and makes me still look like myself but prettier- it enhances rather than hides somehow. It is also a great setting powder for concealer for my under-eye area, any powder I've ever tried including quite high end has looked horrible the first time I smile- I guess Viseart is so finely milled it absorbs differently perhaps, and again it seems to become your skin rather than sit on top of your skin. I prefer a natural muted look but i am sure you can create as dramatic a look as you'd like. My initial conclusion is Viseart shadows contain a little magic...
