Re: Need a suggestion for a *matte brightening powder*

Thanks.
I think the less shimmer the better, but I was hoping for a matte bright, I don't know if it's possible.

It says it has a shimmer scale of 2. I wonder if I can find a swatch somewhere. I remember seeing them a long time ago for foundation but I can't find them now.

Need a suggestion for a *matte brightening powder*

Hi I'm looking for something similar to Laura Mercier's secret brightening powder or Mac shaping powder in Emphasize. Looking for MATTE not shiny or shimmery or glittery. I love the Blur powder already, but it doesn't exactly double as a highlighting powder, if only it were brighter or had whiter pi...

Re: How moisturizing is the Facelift DMAE serum?

Yeah, I ordered samples of stuff just to test. It sounds like your skin is super picky, kind of like mine. Right now it seems like my skin is reacting to everything that has any kind of emollient factor, and also its super dry right now and I am breaking out like crazy. What is your skincare routin...

Re: How moisturizing is the Facelift DMAE serum?

I haven't noticed any skin lightening (I am pretty fair, but freckled, and have been using it for maybe a year). I think you would have to be super religious about using it and also sunscreen to see any lightening effect. In fact, after the summer, my skin is darker than it has ever been (too much ...

Re: How moisturizing is the Facelift DMAE serum?

Have you tried super serum? If your skin is sensitive then it might not work for you, but I use it alone on my acne prone but not oily skin (that sort of horrible skin that needs moisturiser but breaks out with everything) and it works really well, and also has cleared my skin up as well as the 2.5...

Re: How moisturizing is the Facelift DMAE serum?

Thanks, I might try it out. Have you tried any of the other products? Particularly the COQ10 mosturizer with renovage? Or the raspberry mosturizer? Both look good BUT the ingredients...they might be a little too emollient for me. I tried for a year and a half to use many different oils (and wax...j...

Re: How moisturizing is the Facelift DMAE serum?

I started off using the Facelift serum by itself without any moisturiser at night (until I started purchasing SN's moisturisers!). But I didn't find it moisturising enough and there was also a slight tightening effect. Then added on raspberry/ jojoba moisturisers. Nothing broke me out (I have combi...

How moisturizing is the Facelift DMAE serum?

Hi everyone, I have been eyeing the above product and wanted to know how moisturizing it is. I want to wear this alone only at night and wondering if its okay just to wear it like a moisturizer for night use. I am interested in this product because it seems like all the ingredients won't clog my por...

Re: Cucumber Clay Mask

Oh I see, thanks for the instructions! I will try this tonight, would you say just enough liquid to get the right consistency? i am hesitant to scoop it in my hand, hence the poof thing lol but I rather mix it in a bowl.
