What happened to his TSV which was listed in the Insider for October 30?

He just had a show last hour on QVC and presented a 5 piece Vanity Kit Volume 2 A299073, which looks like that it might have been designed for a TSV.

I think he has quite a following in various circles in Hollywood. I've never personally tried any of his products. Am I missing something great?

Whenever I see Kristofer Buckle, it reminds me of a cool character from a children's book.

Good to see he's got a decent foundation color selection. The dark end of the spectrum is the only area often lacking for black women, and Jay Manuel takes pretty good care of that- but still only about 4 shades. IMO other vendors should do the same. White women have a huge selection in many brands, where there's only a few, especially with TSV/TS/TTV's on all shopping channels. I watched a few minutes of the online presentation.

I get so tired of hearing ONE lipstick shade is perfect for every woman... yet once again. It's simply not true. However I do kind of like the shade offered. I'd probably tone it down with a lighter gloss or lipstick on top for practical every day wear. On me it would read as a night-time color, if it's reading true to color at all. I see it as a mid to deep wine or very deep mauve shade.

I tried 3 of his items....lipstick, blush & warming powder (bronzer-type).

The only thing I liked was the powder. I thought the blush & the lipstick were very low quality cosmetics. I was really surprised at how bad they were.

I'm a huge fan. I bought a lot the very first time he was on QVC, and I've been very happy. I love his foundation. The shade (Light) matches me perfectly, and I like that I can choose to have a light finish. His mascara has become my favorite. I reordered it, but it currently comes with the liner, which I give to DD. His brow set is amazing too. My brows are unusual - taupe shades usually go on too dark for me, but his works. I also like that you can "play" with the two shades. I love his setting spray. I used to swear by Mally's Face Defender, but when the new company took over the forumla seemed to change. So I took a chance with this, and I use it every day. His lipstick colors are great and beautifully pigmented, but they just don't stay on me. They will for a little while. I didn't get his first TSV, because I already had most of the products in it, but I will definitely be looking to try more!

Thanks for the heads up

@momoftwo2007. I was looking forward to his 2nd TSV. But this kit seems to be priced as such even though it's not a TSV. Wonder what happened?

Regardless, I'm interested. I purchased his first tsv and like his makeup alot. The finish is very nice. I like his lipstick alot too. It is longer lasting without being drying on me. I did not try the eyeliner or mascara from the original kit as I have others I'm using up first. His brow product is very nice too. Although I'm a salt and peppered brunette, the blond shade works nicely for me. It's a little softer and less dramatic than the brunette.

I had ordered his foundation in the Light shade, a perfect match. Now I just have to figure out which one to order with the new colors offered.

Did anyone see his presentation today? I normally never comment on vendors but there was lipstick on the model's chin and lipstick on her teeth. I felt a little sorry for her.

I watched an earlier video that was cut off before the lipstick in the new kit was discussed. Needless to say, I was disappointed. The color seemed darkish but it's name, Persimmon, sounds like an orange red that I'd like.

Anybody get a good look at this new shade?

I am watching him put Courtney's make up on now on Beauty IQ He would be the person I would choose if I could have my makeup done by a professional. I also think he is a doll. Although since I am obsessed with brows I would like the Brow Gal to do my brows if she would. She would probably run in horror. My brows are so sparse and too far apart.

I just ordered the five piece set with the foundation, setting powder, mascara, lipstick and eyeliner. Had no idea what color foundation to order, so went with Light warm. I am going grey but had dark brown hair, sort of olive complexsion, with checks that get quite red even without blush...must be my age. Anyway, I hope i like it all, worried about the cream foundation as I tend to break if products are to oily.

@gigy

What color foundation do you usually wear? Your mention of an olive sort of skin tone has me wondering if you may have selected too light of a shade...

Re: Kristofer Buckle

gigy — Tue, 31 Oct 2017 11:06:48 GMT

I don't usually wear foundation, just wash my face and put serum and moisturizer on, then concealer, eyeliner, mascara and astick cream blush from BOOM. Just didn't want to go too dark and look like I have a clown mask on.

@gigy

I hope you don't feel I'm overstepping. I have salt and peppered hair. It's turned a much darker brown as the grays came in. I am a light medium, leaning more to light in my foundation/skin color. I previously purchased Light in KB's foundation. He suggested on air last night to stick with Light with his new shades. Being Light Warm is the only Light available, I made that selection. I am a little nervous about this to be honest. I wish he had identified the shades all of the models were wearing. Jan ,with short gray hair has a complexion like mine, bit her shade was not stated. My BFF ordered too. She has an olive cast in her medium complexion. No red undertones. She ordered Medium Warm. I keep toying with Medium Neutral or Cool. I just want to be sure and since you are new to the line and what sounds like foundation in general I hope your choice works out well for you.

Yes, I found the presentation from both Shawn and the other host of which there is a full make-up presentation not at all helpful in terms of which shade to buy. They did show all the shades briefly but did not talk about who should get what or what the models were wearing. My personal opinion is that they need to do a better job in that area. I hate returning things and these days, returns are so expensive.
