Laura Geller's Balance & Brighten...

Sunshine Kate — Mon, 19 Feb 2024 20:53:28 GMT

I'm seeing Laura Geller's Balance & Brighten a lot on different social media platforms.

Seems it's a new product, the way ads are acting. Is it the same product that was released many years ago? Or is it totally new and maybe reformulated?

I believe it's the same product but a different brush for applying!

I've used it for years...love it!

@Sunshine Kate It's the same product. I see her on infomercials late at night with it too a lot.

The Balance & Brighten seems the same to me....even my most recent order.

I have at least 3 of those brushes pictured, so they are not new.

I did recently order a supersize of the balance and bronze and I swear it was a new formulation.

There is SO much fallout with it...like I was using a loose mineral powder! It gets all over!

I have never had that happen before and I have used it for years. I cancelled my AD for fear they are making it that way now.

@RespectLife I agree, I think the Bronze N' Brighten is a different formulation than previously. I also think the Balance N' Brighten is different; chalky.

I've used this for over 15 years...only "foundation"/finishing powder, that I wear. Though, now, I sometimes will use a BB cream (Maybelline) if I want a little more creamy coverage. As I get older and I see myself in closeup HD photos (ugh!! lol...every pore!) I sometimes think maybe powder is drying. So I just lighten up on how I apply the B&B...not that I ever was heavy with it...I just do shiny areas or anywhere there's darkness.

I hope they never change it, as some have said they've changed her bronzer!!

I've just never gotten on the bronzer bandwagon...even though I've tried them occasionally. I only have some in an LG palette I got about 3 years ago, with blushes, highligher and bronzers. I've been playing around with "contouring" but I just don't feel the need most days. Also, for highlighting, I much prefer LG's cream in the tube (not sure she sells it anymore, mine are old, I have two) to the powder one.

I don't have that brush, but I have so many brushes of all types from all the QVC kits over the years...I haven't bought just a brush ever!
