Eve Pearl

katie girl — Wed, 19 Oct 2016 21:35:17 GMT

I just got an e-mail featuring the Flawless Face Collection that looks identical to the recent TSV. It said that it will be coming at midnight on 10/20.

I am confused. Is this a mistake. Are they doing a second TSV?

I got the email too. It is the exact same tsv they just had. Odd. Perhaps the are doing a redux because it didn't sell well the first time? I have no idea.

Eve Pearl was recently on Hautelook. Quite a selection too. I hope they are doing ok and not dumping product. I really like it.

I will order! I did not order the last time, because I still had product left, but now I can see where in the next two months or so I would need to reorder the foundation and concealer, so this would be perfect timing for me, as I love her products and wear them most days.....

Is this foundation as heavy as it looks in the application demo.

No. It looks like those old super heavy compact foundations but it doesn't apply that way. You really do only need a little bit, although I tend to be heavy handed. It blends very well. It doesn't feel like you are wearing anything.

@fluffysmom

The biggest mistake I've noticed is that many apply this foundation to heavily. The first few times using it I had to wipe excess off. It didn't take long to realize less is better and add more IF additional coverage is needed on desired. This can be layered. Thin application is much better than over applying a single application, which will look awful. Not the way it's meant to be ... properly, this looks like skin. A healthy, satin-y finish is how this looks on me. I like this product alot and reach for this first. Once used to the reverse shading technique Eve teaches, it's just a few quick swipes and blending to create a beautiful finish. I still receive compliments when I wear the line.

Many utube videos to look at showing proper techniques and great before and after tutorials.

I really appreciate you taking the time to explain this to me. I have been watching it but hesitating to take the plunge. Now I will. It was sweet of you. Thanks.

@fluffysmom

You're most welcome. In spite of the other Eve Pearl fans being quiet to your inquiry, there are quite alot of us here who use and love her foundation and other products. Are you just interested in trying the foundation or other items too? Just curious, what are you using now? Do check Eve's web site for tutorials also, plus she has a bunch of tips she calls pearls of wisdom. Wayne Goss on utube is a huge fan of hers. And do check out the many videos available. Do you know which shade you're getting? Page me if you have any questions. We'll make it fun!

How kind of you to offer. I have tried several of the it foundations. I didn't like any of them. Recently tried Ready to Wear serum Foundation. It only takes 2 drops but I didn't like the feel. I keep coming back to BE loose original foundation. My skin is dry so I want something else but not heavy .I can wear fair but if I'm having an autoimmune flair I use med. because it covers the redness better.

Would you suggest starting with the foundation only or go all in for one of the sets? Any suggestions on color?

Thanks for being so nice!

@fluffysmom

I just saw your response. I do have a few questions, but basically are you just looking to try the foundstion? Or do you need or want to try (Eve's) concealer, cheeks, lips or eyes too? There's a thin palette that travels well that is pretty neat. I'll do some checking around. Do you use a primer? She has one that is very nice. I've originally purchased it here then afterwards, sealed tubes on ebay. Do you use sunscreen? Which one, please? Let's share more info, compare some notes and make a little plan that'll make your face happy. Please use the "@" symbol, that way I'll be notified and know you're talking to me. Do you know how to use it when you want to mention a poster by name? Let me know and we'll get that taken care of... Do you have any restrictions medically? Products or ingredients you avoid?

To be continued...

@rochelleS

Hmmm I didn't know about the @ . Now I do. I use BE Primer, willing to try another one. I don't use a sunscreen. I know that's terrible but with sensitive skin I didn't know which one to use. I am willing to try the whole sebang on Eve Pearl so I can give it a good try. I can't use much retinol, no acids or peels. This is fun. I'm so glad you're willing to teach an old horse some nrw tricks. lol

Thanks!

A281866 Eve's palette appears to be available in all shades. There is only 2 dark shades available in her previous tsv, plus it's 80.00.

This may be a prudent start with foundation, concealer, cheeks and highlight and contour in one slim kit. No brushes. No lip or eyes. Or consider starting with just the dual foundation that has her brush. In spite of the many brushes received over the years, I do use hers and finish my face with a beauty blender sponge.

What shade did your purchase in IT Cosmetics? I do use that too. Not familiar with Ready to Wear shades.

Do you 'tan' or naturally change color in the warm months? Or buy two shades of the same foundation? I am light-medium complected. I own Eve in both light and medium. With the dual concept, I have four shades to utilize.

How do you feel about ebay? I did check and there are new sealed brushes, kits and individuals products available. Some of the Sellers I know.

I use eBay in two ways. For a back up of a tried and liked product. Or to try something of interest on its own, ie, not in a kit. Or to try something new in a sample size or full size at a deep discount. Etc. Etc.

Often the 30 day return policy may be your best choice with new stuff. (Unless there are

people you can share with) It's up to you....

I've read good things about the bare minerals primer. Hopefully it's compatible with EP. Maybe a nice user of both will chime in here!

Please consider SUNSCREEN, Please! I am currently using and loving a Skinn product. Just went AD. It is a chemical as opposed to mineral product. I like it ' cuz it's fragrance free, smooth silk like application and plays well with my makeup and without. There are ladies who only want mineral products and have recently chatted on the forum. I'll gladly share what I use if you are interested. Does BE or BM have a sunscreen, thinking, thinking, yes I seem to recall some good comments ...will have to re check this. Do you have an Ulta or Sephora close to you?

Your turn, lol!

We have tornado warnings going on and off. There are several storm cells now. Our town has had 3 tornados since 1974. The one in 1974 wiped the town almost totally. One of my sons is try to work his way home from work as the cells move.

Ok in IT I tried fair and medium. I would like to know what Skinn sun screen you use. I don't care if it's mineral . I use some of the Skinn Collagenisis skin care and like it. I don't tan just burn. I do shop on ebay and will look around but initially I'll buy here so I can do a return if I have a reaction to the new products. The BE loose minerals have a sunscreen of 15 but I'm not putting it on my arms etc. so yes I really need to do this I'm getting some of the DREAD brown spots ! I have Ulta and Sephora. I hear angels sing when I open the door at Sephora. lol

@fluffysmom

I hope the warnings are over now and your son has made it home safely!!!!!

Skinn Collagenesis Daily Defense spf 30 is what I'd mentioned liking so much. On Evine.

312 969 2 pk w AD available - with reduced or free shipping, can't remember which right now..

306 849 is a single of the same. Reviews are more current on this item.

Previously offered and looking for the number. One single 1.8 oz sunscreen, smaller eye (mineral based) sunscreen plus 6x lip balm with spf. I only see each offered individually now, no kit. My GF bot this, I'll get # when she's back in town.

I'd suggest the light in EP. Better lighter with a lil swipe of bronzer if needed, than too dark. Can't go backwards with color.

I see the BareMinerals primer has spf in it. There's a BM prep spf 50, I believe, this is a mineral based product. Unfortunately waitlisted here on the Q. Sephora for a sample? Angels sing when you go in...is absolutely hysterical!

Stay safe...
