Very Moisturizing
I alternate between this and Chanel's No 1 Red Camilla Rich Cream, but I've found that I need a serum underneath both of them in order to get the amount of moisture my skin really needs. Using serum with other moisterizers still doesn't work - but with either of these two moisturizers it does. So if AB didn't work for you get the AB serum and use it first. You'll find it makes a big difference.
Fabulous!
I've been having trouble with my. hair in the last couple of years (getting old!), and every shampoo and treatment I've tried has just left it without body and looking frazzled. I truly was getting so upset by it - is this what I have to look forward to? It was breaking off and, as bad, it is thinning. When Beautylish sent an email about Oribe's new shampoo/conditioner/serum I immediately placed an order. In the past, I used many of Oribe's products and was happy, but recently they weren't doing the trick. After using the three products one time my hair is soft but has body and isn't frizzy at all. I'M SO HAPPY!!! It may not work forever, but for right now it is. If you have any issues like I do I would urge you to try this.
Not as saturated as I expected
Perhaps I'm using it wrong, but I find the color isn't as saturated as I expected it to be. Maybe you have to just keep putting more on to build up the color and I'm not doing that enough. My go-to eyeshadow is Viseart, which is the correct color the first time applying, so perhaps it has more pigment. A bit disappointed with this purchase.
The Best!
Of all the eyebrow pencils I've used in my life, this is the absolute best ever. It shapes and fills in brows better than the wedge-style pencil I've used from other brands. I think it's because the pencil is soft. But for whatever reason, it really works
ADDICTED!
This is the best makeup I've ever used! The coverage is enough to cover redness and some dark spots but light enough to feel as though you're wearing nothing. Can't live without it - highly recommend.
No Scent
There is absolutely NO scent. For over $100 I expect a whole lot more. I used to buy this diffuser primarily because of the beautiful scent of roses that permeated my entire downstairs. I stopped buying for a while due to price and because the scent wasn't as strong as time went on. Wanted to smell this again and guess what? Now there's absolutely no scent. Jo Malone has a lot of nerve pricing a worthless product this high. Don't anyone else waste your moeny.
Disapponting
very expensive for what you get - it's just another lip gloss, nothing special. I would definitely not buy this again.
Subtle Brightening
This product is exactly as it is described. I've tried the highly touted Laura Mercier under eye powder and found it to be cakey, emphasizing the wrinkes. I was a bit skeptical about the Becca product but found it to be exactly as described. It's finely milled, it doesn't settle into under eye lines, and it really brightens the area. But it's subtle, which is perfect for me. I typically use a brush, but I've also used my finger and patted it on - I almost like it better. Anyway, I highly recommend this product - you won't be disappointed.
Perfect for contouring
Before I got this brush I used my fingers, sponges, and other brushes but nothing really worked well. This brush combo delivers. With the small brush I place the color and with the larger I blend. It honestly works better than anything else. I highly recommend it.
Fantastic!
I initially wanted this palette to get the bar of gold. Turns out, that's not my favorite part of the palette. I'm blown away by the eye shadows, both the colors and the color payoff. The shadows are also easy to apply with a wonderful Wayne Goss brush. The pressed bar of gold is terrific and I'm so glad to have it. The bronzer is also a good color. I'm not crazy about the two blushes, but I don't really care about them anyway. One of the greatest benefits is my eyes aren't sensitive to the shadows, which is MAJOR because I usually react to everything. This is also my first interaction with CT eyeshadows. I have many lipsticks - which I love - as well as powder and blush, but haven't tried the eye shadows until now. I will definitely be getting more. This is probably the first palette I've gotten - and I have a bunch of them - that I've been so taken with, and it's now my go-to every morning. I have to use my other palettes but I'm really in love with this one. And many thanks to Nils for placing my order for me as I wasn't able to get on the website at the time the palette was offered. LOVE BEAUTYLISH!!!
