Laura Geller TSV recently purchased

theresa · ‎09-13-2010

I really didn't see all the hype about these products so I returned the kit today.

The foundation compact does not cover very drying

Eyeliner Kajal too thick

Jelly Balm lip color does not stay on long

Eyeshadows all glitter

I'll stay with Estée Lauder and NARS as I couldn't justify almost $55 for this kit.

Anyone else purchase and have positive results?

I wanted to like LG make up but it was nothing great.

I didn't buy Laura's last TSV but i agree with you on the Kajal eyeliners and jelly balms. I won't be buying them again.

@piperbay I used to like her presentations but caught her last night with Courtney.

She seems very different almost fake. I read her company was purchased and is no longer independently owned yet she presents it as though it is all products baked in Italy.

I loved her Kajal liner when it was thinner - now too thick - agree with that.

I love the Jelly Balms. And her blushes.

I recently bought her Seamless Coverage Concealer and love it.

I didnt buy the kit because I knew I wouldn't like it. Her B &B foundation looks dry and powdery on the face. Agree with you that it doesn't cover. Learned my lesson a long time ago about her eyeshadow-lots of fallout, tons of unflattering glitter.

Tried the Jelly balm, found it drying.

No comparison to Estee Lauder. The formulations and quality are like night and day.

When I see the presentations I think I don't want my make-up to look like that. I never used her products though.

I'm an LG fan - have been for a long time. Right now I'm trying Party in a Palette, and posting about it another thread on this forum.

I love her Kajal liners, and most of the time I apply them with a thin eyeliner brush. I do like the Balance & Brighten too, and I like that I can do a very light coverage or a little heavier. It's all about the brush! I have luck with her eyeshadows. They stay on, but I do use primer under. I don't see glitter - more of a sheen. I agree about the Jelly Balm - pretty colors but they won't stay on long.

I stopped buying Geller's powders due to the talc, but I do like the jelly balms, my eyeliner pencil of choice is NYX Retractable

@theresa I've used a variety of her products for several years. Have a couple of favorites - the French Vanilla highlight which I use as an a eye shadow base and the Kajal liners. Her shadow palettes are repetitive and unappealing. My most recent purchase was the paddle brush to use for blending. Haven't purchased her Q TSV's in a long while.

Why shop at Q or Sephora when the best pricing is at her website that always seems to have deep discounts 50% up to 70%.

She is way overexposed now at Q and it's the same stuff over and over. Maybe now that she's at Sephora, Q will move on to offering other color brands.

Love Balance and Brighten, perfect for my skin without sinking into my pores.

Never drying, never cakey. They Are made in Italy.

I disagree, I don't think her shadows are glittery at all. They have brightness which is exactly what my old dark lids need.

Kajal liners I like but I sharpen them a lot. I have total control on whether I apply thick or thin. There are unique colors.

I am in LOVE with Jelly Balms. I would rather apply a couple times a day, than wear old fashioned lipstick which shows every wrinkle and crease on me. They are Balms!!!

Not lipsticks. No one should expect a balm, gloss or oil to last all day.

I find Laura to be authentic. She has the resume to back up what she is teaching.

Lots of cosmetic companies to choose from. To each their own to look their best.
