The cream texture blends out like a cream to powder product. The finish is to die for. It does not require setting with a powder, but you could still do so if you wish. It’s also user friendly for those with oily combination skin.</div>

Yes, it's been a while since my last post. I'm back and ready to shed a little light on all the madness with BB creams.<br />
<br />
The truth is, BB creams aren't really that new. It's been in Asian markets for sometime now. It recently hit the United States with a resounding sonic boom! Ok..maybe that's a little much but yes, it's all the buzz.<br />
<br />
The BB in BB cream stands for Beauty Balm or Blemish Balm. It's a multi-functional treatment makeup. Almost all of them address fine lines and wrinkles. Right now there are a variety of which to choose from. Some lines only offer one to two shades that may look a little gray or ashy. Which to me just doesn't make sense.<br />
<br />
The solution and my favorite is the Bobbi Brown BB Cream. She has 5 skin correct shades. It's lightweight with a little bit more coverage than her tinted moisturizer. Great on normal to oily or oily skin types like myself.<br />
<br />
I personally think that it works best with a light or oil control moisturizer applied first. A little goes a long way. Work a section at a time with fingers for a better application. Sponges or brush just soaks up this product. Remember, that it's a treatment so consistently using this product is going to yield better results.<br />

You go to buy your favorite shade of lipstick and they tell you it no longer exits! Panic sets in along with disbelief! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, there's still hope ladies. Some brands offer discontinued items directly to the consumer and there are also websites that either help you find these elusive products or recreate them for you.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For example a company called </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Three Custom Color </span></b><br />

If you run out before saving a sample don't despair.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Their archive of products (which is heavy on lipsticks) dates back to the 1930s and may have it. Your item will be catalogued once you order for future purchases. Their prices are $50 for two lipsticks or lip glosses; $47.50 for </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">bronzer</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> or loose powder; $37.50 for blusher; and $36.50 for pressed powder, brow powder or gel, cake eyeliner, shadow or concealer.

<br />
<br />
<ol><li>Estee Lauder Double Wear eyeliner</li>
<li>Christian Dior waterproof eyeliner</li>
<li>YSL waterproof eye pencil</li>
<li>Chanel Stylo Yeux waterproof automatic pencil</li>
<li>Lancome Le Stylo waterproof automatic pencil</li>
<li>Nars Larger Than Life Long-wear eyeliner </li>
</ol><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2mJVAX1JRXY/Tk6BA5kqaVI/AAAAAAAAACo/D-2ElgtOWiI/s1600/2011-08-16+14.02.10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2mJVAX1JRXY/Tk6BA5kqaVI/AAAAAAAAACo/D-2ElgtOWiI/s320/2011-08-16+14.02.10.jpg" width="320" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uyWUOc3TmrE/Tk6CYBvJodI/AAAAAAAAACw/LM3CWPcjTa4/s1600/2011-08-16+14.10.47.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uyWUOc3TmrE/Tk6CYBvJodI/AAAAAAAAACw/LM3CWPcjTa4/s320/2011-08-16+14.10.47.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
They all faired pretty good with the exception of #5. Lancome's pencil smudged to the touch even after more than 5 minutes. I've tried Lauder's Double Wear but I have to say that sometimes after a while it does smudge in the inner corners of the eyes. Dior's eyeliner glides easily, which is nice but their black is not so black. YSL also glides easily and holds up good. Chanel's automatic W/P pencil is actually really good but couldn't find a black. The closest they had to black was Black shimmer. Nars pencil was pretty good and they have a wide selection of colors. Although when rubbed the Nars black pencil crumbled but it didn't in the white. Maybe it's something in the black formulation.<br />
<br />
So my personal picks...YSL and Chanel are the two that held up the best.<br />
<br />
With that said, I'm not in a hurry to trade in my <a href="http://bobbibrowncosmetics.com/">Bobbi Brown</a> Black ink gel liner. The the wearability, control and definition is unmatched.<br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Today, I'm on the hunt for the perfect, stay in place, no fuss eyeliner. I have a few in mind but they're going to have to past the test! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Right now I use Bobbi Brown's Gel eyeliner in black and it holds up pretty good. I can seriously wake up with it the next morning looking like I just put it on. The gel is applied with a brush but today I'm going to test out waterproof eyeliner pencils.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I will be trying out Christian Dior's new waterproof automatic eyeliner and YSL waterproof pencil plus anymore that I can find.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Stay tuned for the winner!</span>Pamelahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14739562104039510259noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6531703340515523062.post-40120268257598906902011-08-15T17:39:00.000-07:002011-08-15T17:39:32.712-07:00It's all new<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm definitely new to blogging but really excited! </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I intend to use my blog to give makeup tips and offer solutions by providing products that will work towards accomplishing the task at hand. I too am always learning and there are constantly new products on the market. It's sometimes overwhelming keeping up with it all. I hope to simplify it a little. I love helping people and answering any makeup questions. </span><br />
