Re: FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO USE LAURA GELLER

I use some Laura Geller items. I think they are "good", not great. I have normal skin and the coverage is good, it will settle into fine lines when over used.

 

As some mentioned, the website has free shipping. BUT, with a minimum of $40. When I shop on their website I find I am purchasing items only to meet the free shipping. Also, their shipping is the slowest of ANY website I have ever purchased from. During Christmas it took a month to receive my items. Their customer service said it was due to the season being busy. So, okay, but the next time I ordered (not a holiday) it took 3 1/2 weeks. 

 

If you need a lot of items (their website is cheaper but has limited options) to reach the threshold of free shipping and are in no hurry, I would check them out. Usually though, during a TSV of LG you will get good deals and have items offered only at QVC on this day.

Forgot to mention in my post, I LOVE the:

Spackle Mist Boost with Electrolytes

 

It feels good and sets the powder, even last through a sweaty workout.

   I only use her makeup during the humid summer time, if I'm going to be outside alot.  The powder does nothing

positive for my wrinkles.

 

Prefer liquid makeup  most of the time.

BNB is the only foundation I wear and it covers a few age spots for me very easily. I do sweat a ton on my face when I'm outside gardening and it will come off on a paper towel when I wipe my forehead but I generally don't wear it working outside. Even my head sweats and my eyes. I haven't found anything that stays on outside darn it. 

The compact will last me a year. 

I always buy from her website, so much cheaper. I buy three at a time so I get the free shipping but it's something I know I will use. 

Even tanning lotion (any brand) I will sweat off during the hot months.

Re: FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO USE LAURA GELLER

@marmarbrooklyn  I'm 69, have oily skin, and have been using Balance & Brighten since it was introduced and there was only ONE shade (called Regular, now it's Medium). I am light-skinned with neutral undertones.  I also have some texture. The Medium worked well enough, but once some different shades were available, I tried Fair (a tad too pink) and ended up setting on Light, which I've used ever since. I find the shades to be very forgiving. 

 

Coverage is buildable, some days I use more, some less. I no longer use a primer, and have found that makes no difference for me. Once my makeup is complete, I mist my face with WEN Replenishing Treatment Mist...very lightly. I don't have to touch up, even when I was working 8 hours a day--I might blot my T-zone with a tissue but that's it.

 

I love Laura's blushes, too--Pink Buttercream being my favorite.

I only like her eyeliners. The only ones with staying power.

Thanks so much . I went on to youtube to see reviews from women ove 50 (there are a lot ) . The biggest issues was shade matching . most said that the colors ran warm and a bit daker . I am usually the 2nd or 3rd foundation shade in most brands . My skin is neutral maybe a touch cool . This helps .
