Edward Bess

First time I have ever seen one of his shows. His things seem very pricey. Does anyone here use his products. Are they really worth the money. I have been let down with high end products before.

He has lovely hair. Otherwise my guess is it's pretty similar to everyone else's.

So far, I only tried one of his products- a lip and cheek product. I did not like it very well- the color wasn't flattering on me but more importantly, it was difficult to blend into my cheeks without really rubbing. I have thought some of his products looked intriguing but not sure I want to bother trying them due to the cost. I am pretty sure they are not any better than products I use that are cheaper.

I don't think anyone that is as fair as I am could use that bronzing face cream. Maybe for a blush but not all over.

Is there any shimmer or glitter in it? I'd be interested in it if it is matte.

He's quite beautiful to look at. Wish my hair looked half as great as his, darned! Anyone try his concealer? I'm still looking for my HG under eye concealer. I think I've tried just about every brand on the market too.....

How do you like his hair product and what did you like or not like about it?

I have his concealer and really like it. I ordered his new eyebrow pencil today.

It is matte, no shimmer at all. However, especially when all the shades are mixed (which I don't do) it's those soft peaches that seems like it gives off the softest sheen. But it is really matte. Hard to explain. It is not a "glow" product.

His hair is ridiculous unless he is growing it to have it cut for children with cancer. His products are way over priced. He was or is a model - what does he know about makeup? Perhaps from wearing it in photo shoots? Not interested -- he is over zealous about selling his products. I had to change the channel.

When he took his hair down and applied the product, I turned it off. It tickled me when he and Courtney were talking about the secret behind his hair because I kept thinking to myself that every stylist I know would encourage him to cut it. I don't think it's a good look, but I guess it's his trademark along with the thick bushy eyebrows.

Ditto. He's not attractive at all.

To say that because he was a model, he doesn't know anything about makeup seems very odd to me.

What does ANYONE really KNOW about makeup? And honestly, I'd think that maybe a model just might have a step up on makeup.

I'd agree with you there. Either a model or a makeup artist would really know their product or the ones that worked for them.

I guess I'm in the minority then, I've always found guys with gorgeous long hair attractive. MY DH used to have beautiful long hair too but we were a lot younger then. Now he's just thankful he still has hair !

Thanks. So you can swirl all the colors together or use them separately then. Nice. Years ago I bought a quad from Laura Mercier that had the same concept except that it was too pink for me so it couldn't be used for my eyes and only lightly on the cheeks.

Is that the Sea Extreme Cover cream? Hautelook was selling Edward Bess last week but the concealer was not this one, it was a click style pen. How do you find the coverage? Does it go on thick or thin? I've had issues with products either not covering dark circles or if they do, they are too thick and cakey looking.
