By "warmth", do you mean yellow?

What is the point of showing two models who are wearing the same shade?

@Maggie Nolia Warmth can mean leaning towards yellow or more olive before you reach the darker shades. I know I can identify with the blue eyed model Amy since her coloring is similar to mine. If I were to order foundation from TV & she was a FAIR, I would be, as well.

Same old TSV from It. Why not skincare, eyeshadow etc for a change.

@twocatlou I'm not sure their skincare is well received since they claim most of it is already in the CC cream. I haven't seen a new shadow palette in years. They stay with what brings in the most money.

I don't think this was a planned TSV. That is why I think it was the same old, same old.

Their skincare does seem to get very good reviews. I am using the eye cream and the Confidence in a Gel moisturizer right now and both are very nice products. I had my doubts because the ingredient deck is so big but I was pleasantly surprised.

I LOVE the IT CC cream and ordered this TSV. I try to catch/order the Supersized that's been offered as a TSV in the past.

Did I miss the Supersized TSV?

I also love the Trish McEvoy Beauty Balm but it hasn't been offered at tbe special event price at HSN in awhile so I grabbed the IT TSV yesterday

Yes the warm is absolutly yellow. The cool is pink and the neutral is a combination of both sades.

The IT website has a better description of the undertones for each shade (W, C, N) than I have found on the Q. Also, I wish they would come up with better ways to describe the shades than "fair is fairest of the fair", "medium is for medium skin tones", etc. I'm sure English teachers everywhere are cringing, as am I.

I wore the fair in the CC cream for years before I discovered it is actually for WARM skin tones. The fair light for cool tones is extremely pink on me. I have cool tones. I think all IT foundations lean towards the yellow side that's why I don't wear it anymore. It's too bad because I really liked it. They just need to make their lighter shades in more cool tone options.

I posted a message on It Cosmetics facebook asking them to offer more shades in cool tones. They answered and said they would take it to the higher ups. I told them that the whole word can't possibly have a yellow, olive skin tone. We shall see. I sure hope they do..

Nadine 0, you said it for me. I noticed during the TSV presentations that some of those foundations were too yellow on a few of the models. I've been saying this for years for myself. Consequently I pretty much ignore the line. How can they let such a large percentage of the cosmetics-buying population just move on to other lines?

I like the new matte version of Bye Bye Foundation, but I have to mix the Fair Light and Light to get the right shade. I was using the Confidence in a Compact, but that has been discontinued. On me, it wasn't as yellow. I have a neutral undertone, though I lean toward cool.

@Nadine O I also did the exact same thing and got the exact same response. I told them that to me Fair sounds like a cool tone but it is very yellowy on me in the cc cream and I have stopped using it. All their foundations seem to run on the yellow side. The only list one cool tone in the cc cream, I think fair light, but it is waaaay too pink on me. They need to realize we are not all yellowed skin toned people.

Please make the Lip Serum in the color Pretty, available to buy outside of a package deal. I love it!

I really like the IT foundation CC cream but it transfers on to my jacket collars and I have to wash them so often. Soon with warmer weather, no more outerwear.

I agree alot of customers are left out. I do like the Nuetral Medium over Medium. I wear Nuetral in other make up lines. I hope they have more shades as not all skin tones are yellow.

@Shanus I actually loved the CC cream however I am fair and their version of "fair" is way too yellowy and warmed toned for me. I wish they would make more cool toned colors. The one cool color they do have, I believe fair light, is too pink on me.

I have given up on finding a shade that works for me in the CC cream. I do like the redness powder and the Bye Bye Pores powder. I use the eyeshadows but other than the products I have mentioned I won't order any more IT.

@LuvmyLab Yes, the fair is yellow toned...more than others. I just don't get their color ranges. There should be a fair neutral.
