Heads-up to a great deal on the isomers bb cream. Two for the price of one. Be careful in your search as they also have the one available for the usual price. Look for the duo.

Saw it and got it! I've been meaning to try it but dragging my feet as I've never been wowed by any I've tried. People rave about this though, and with that deal I couldn't pass it up. Do you use it?

I do use it. I mix it in with my supergoop tinted SPF to make it a little more spreadable for me (about two parts sg and one part cc cream). I have been on a journey trying to find a high physical SPF that also acts as my foundation and I think I found it (although..I use the light/medium and it is a tad to dark for the winter). The combination of the bb cream and supergoop gives me the perfect level of coverage for me (mediumish). What I like about the bb cream is that is feels really good, it seems to cool down my face a bit as I have some redness. It is also very light and plays well with other moisturizers and serums. On it's own, I don't think it gives much in the way of coverage but could see someone with really good skin using it with just some concealer and/or powder. Hope you like it!

I use Supergoop for my foundation, too! (If I'm wearing foundation -- if not I wear whatever untinted 20%+ zinc sunscreen I have and dust powder over it). Have you tried Supergoop in the Fair?

The reason I'm interested in the Isomers BB is that I don't often WANT to wear a foundation, so i'm hoping this will help cut my high zinc sunscreen shine and just give a finished look to my complexion.

And nice to meet another high physical sunscreen fan (actually, I'm a fanatic). I'm convinced zinc is the best and thankfully more companies are introducing products with high percentages of zinc. :-)

I am almost sure that I first learned about supergoop from you on this board, so thank you! I have not tried the fair but have thought about mixing the fair with the light/medium. I am definitely closer to light and have yellow undertones so I am always hesitant to go to fair. The next time I am out and can do it, I will go to sephora or Nordstrom and try it. I would say that the bb cream definitely does create a matte finish, so I am hopeful that it will work well for you.
