Re: IT COSMETICS - NOT FOR ME

sweet serenity, me too! I started using purity a few years ago with a clarisonic, continue my prescription retin-a from the derm for past 7 years (I'm 62) and I quit wearing foundation. my skin is smooth, clear, even toned and wrinkle free Smiley Happy  the only face makeup I wear is neutrogena water gel moisturizer and a cream (IT brand) blush. less is more for me.

I bought the two compact set with brush, and it's ok. The brush makes my skin it if I press too hard. The powder foundation doesn't cover as well as I had hoped. How come they show it covering rosasea and dark spots, yet my lighter issues don't get much at all? I kept it but win't buy again when there are less expensive powder foundations out there.


 

It does seem like IT sends a different product than what they demonstrate on air.  The difference is night and day.


@hopi....also makes me wonder who’s writing these reviews and if they’ve tried the product for more than a few days.

 

There should be review regulations that, especially cosmetics, should be used for 2 wks. before submitting an honest review.

I cannot use IT foundations. Mercy, I tried. They make me look years older.

Re: IT COSMETICS - NOT FOR ME

This 'it' CC cream is the best for me since I only need light coverage.  I think it's all about applying the correct amount of moisturizer before use.  Then, I apply a very tiny amount of CC.  This product goes a long way.  Not sure why the OP looked sunburned.  I find this covers even the slightest redness on my skin.

@moon_gazer,   I agree with you as far as the appeal of IT.  Very thick and the shades start off dark.  I tried out at ULTA and said never again.

Re: IT COSMETICS - NOT FOR ME

I like the CC cream. I have been mixing it with the illumination. I have the trial size in the regular. I will but the full size once it is gone instead of the illumination. I don't find it drying at all. But my skin is normal not dry if I take care of it. I basically pitched all my old stuff and have mostly IT now. I find they always do what they claim. My skin feels better after wearing the CC cream also. But everyone doesn't like the same things and everyone's skin is different.

Re: IT COSMETICS - NOT FOR ME

I tried their CC cream just because I got a sample when I ordered something else.  I so wish I hadn't tried it.  I used one of my Trish McEvoy brushes. When I cleaned the brush, the brush hairs started falling out like crazy. Made me wonder what in the world was in that CC cream because I've used the brush with more than one brand and had no issues.  That cost me $42 and that was only because I had an HSN $10 off coupon.

But "they work with plastic surgeons" so how can it be bad!!  I don't get how working with plastic surgeons makes skin care better, a dermatologist maybe!   But be that as it may, IT hasn't worked for me either


@Phantom41you know something?? I never even thought of that!

you are right! a Derm would know more about skin.

Duh.

Although do love It's many products.

Re: IT COSMETICS - NOT FOR ME

I love the It CC cream.  It's just the best for my skin.  The coverage, the color, and the finish are gorgeous on me. 

The SPF of 50 and the other beneficial ingredients are just the frosting on the cake.  Smiley Happy

Re: IT COSMETICS - NOT FOR ME

I tried the CC cream when it first came out and felt it was too yellow.  I did use it though.  I have also returned several of the IT items and made a mental note not to fall for the presentations and be careful about ordering again.  I have the new cleanser in the tube and it is okay, but not fantastic.   I have had to return several times in the past.
