Still a dedicated IT girl?? - Page 3

Never thought about the rubbing off and putting back on - makes some sense to me. I believe Jamie is a sweetie, but I also don't know what plastic surgeons have to do with concealers.

I have her mascara as well, goes on nice, but hard to get off and wish she had a brownish black color as the black is a bit harsh on my 47 year old eyes especially when I tend to have some darkness under my eyes to start.

Lipsticks are ok.

Anyone else not having such great results with IT?

I have bought my share of IT cosmetics..foundation, blush, mascara, lip color, and moisturizer, but not sure I am liking her line anymore. I feel like the products work well the first couple of uses but then they start to dry and discolor face. I bought her new moisturizer but only found it to be average, actually broke out. I will exfoliate just to make sure but still..meh results.

And I really don't think the foundations cover the way they claim and I still don't know how the blond girl with the hyperpigmentation and old acne marks or Jaime completely cover their discolorations so well live on camera. The products don't cover that well for me. And you can only build coverage so much before your face cracks and/or you look like completely discolored and dried out.

For the life of me, I just don't understand WHY anyone would think using an entire "line" of products is the best way to go ........ In ANY line, some products will be rock stars and others will be mediocre, at best.

Want to learn more about the "rock stars"? Next time you're in a dept store, go up to a SA of some cosmetics company and ask them "What is the STAR of your cosmetics line ... the item you sell more of than any other product you carry?"

Their replies will be very informative. It's how I've found most of what I use because if women consistently buy a lot of it, it must be good, or at least worth a try.

IMO ... stop trying to use an entire line. You can do much better by shopping around. JMO, of course.

Think its a OK brand,still like their under eye bye bye. Their brushes are excellent and use them the most out of all of my brushes, over the expensive ones I've bought....but their MU itself I've stopped buying. I've went back to my beloved bareminerals that has way less ingredients and is better quality IMO. L. Geller, bareminerals & MAC is pretty much all I purchase now. Doesn't fade through out the day, their eyeshadows are great for aging eyes, etc.. Have two jumbo sized CC creams I'm slouching through and once those are gone? Probably not purchasing IT again. Can understand why women really like it but overall not impressed with the actual products, except those great brushes.

I am still loving IT. I switched to Trish for a bit and it was so much work. I felt like I was layering and layering make-up, with my fingers and patting everthing on. I don't tend to need to cover up but just balance a bit. I like the foundations on the sponge, with her ombre blush, a little bronzer and the bye bye pores over ti all. Liner and lipstick and out the door. Her brushs seem to put on the right amount, I like that too.

I've tried several of her things, some of them even years back before I ever even heard of QVC and didn't know she was on QVC- Je ne sais quoi lip "stain", Celebration foundation, bye bye undereye, bye bye pores to name a few and was never impressed with the products and did not at all like the the color of the je ne sais quoi on my lips as it turned a bright clownish pink. Not pretty.

Like others have said, the celebration foundation doesnt cover anything so not sure what they are doing on tv but there is no way it can cover that much redness. I only had a tiny bit of redness by my nose and it did not cover it at all. And if you tried to apply more, it just ended up looking too powdery and awful. I do not like that foundation at all.

I don't know why I bought the bye bye pores as I don't have large pores. at the time I just thought I needed a good setting powder but the bye bye pores really didn't do much for me and I have since realized I don't even need a setting powder if I have the right foundation so it wasn't worth it to me. It was nothing special.

I know everyone loves their brushes but honestly, I never understood it myself. They aren't bad but I just found them average and certainly not worth the expense. I never use the two I have as I prefer my other brushes instead.

Lastly, I also don't like the fact that it took me several months to find out that their products contained ingredients derived from killed animals (there are plant sources available for these ingredients) as they gave me the runaround for so long. I thought it was a really shady thing to do just to avoid telling the truth about your product. That kind of left me with a sour taste in my mouth about the brand but it is mostly because I find their products just okay and not worth the price.

However, just because I am not a fan of the line, I wish Jaime luck and all the success in the world. I feel the same about other lines too- guess I am just pretty picky about what I spend my hard earned money on.

Seems like a magic act, doesn't it? Smoke and mirrors...and it's not only iT cosmetic line, most other skincare lines don't cover as promised either😤...I found that iT foundations (powder or liquid) are drying to skin as well...anyone else find iT, L Gellar too orangey looking? I've been using Bare Minerals mineral foundation in med beige and summer bisque/tan for years and

both of these shades are a great color match, but I'm also finding these drying to skin now...I can't stand the feel of liquid foundation, and I know powders and minerals are drying, I guess I'll just use my Dermablend concealer and skip foundation...

I'm more of an it girl now then ever. I'm 69 and totally use all of it products and people always compliment me on my skin and makeup. For those of you who are not seeing great results go to youtube and pleas watch dome of the it cosmetics reviews and tutorials. That really helped me a lot. I hope this helps.

I am 60. I have been using the IT foundation with SPF 50. I am liking it. It covers nicely, looks smooth and dewy. I also like the Bye Bye undereye. Not a fan of the powders, lip sticks or mascara in the line.
