So, on HSN last year, i tried the  jay m foundation, loved it. Next i tried the cream liner with a brush. I couldn't believe the staying power, and the brush was the bomb.

 

Now i see the 9 o'clock hour, he has a beauty TS.  Followed by at 10 jay m hair care, which i think is new.

 

Anyone, gotten a type of word, as to what his beauty TS might be.

TIA

I am glad last year I purchased 2 of the foundation kits because I absolutely loved it.I am afraid this time it will be the powder foundation which didn't work for me.

I'm so happy, and frankly, amazed to see Jay Manuel cosmetics getting air time.   His and Eve Pearl are the only quality lines with a full range of shades.  Yes, BB and Too Faced carry deep shades but the colors are atrocious! 

 

QVC systematically eliminates any lines carrying darker shades - Iman, Dr Denese's foundation, Models Prefer , International Beauty to mention a few. Even Bobbi Brown's are hidden away on the internet listing so very few even know it exists. It is refreshing to see HSN promoting Jay Manuel.  I enjoy watching Edward Bess and IT and Laura Geller, Doll10 and the dozens of interesting color cosmetics demonstrations but always have to play the ostrich ( or the idiot ) to avoid becoming bitter.  It doesn't help that Oprah can't wear them either!  But- Oprah and Iman and Ade can wear Jay's!

 

I agree the powder to cream foundation, although spot on in the deep 3 in color, is difficult to use.  For me, It has a tacky sticky consistency when applied over serums or moisturizers.  The liquid is perfection.  Iman raved about his concealer.

I love his stuff; ordered quite a few items and had to return all of it. Why? Because, as always, the lightest shade was a few shades too DARK for me.

@CoG, The Powder-to-Cream foundation can be sticky.  Have you tried usig only your moisturizer and skipping primer?  In my case, this was the key.  I get good blending and radiance, but no sticky greasiness.  Not using primer does not effect the wear time.  

 

I also want to join you in applauding Jay Manuel for choosing deeper shades which really look like real dark rich skintones. He also gets points for including light -to-deep in each shade range.  Some manufacturers treat us like their customers couldn't understand that shades within each range will vary from lightest to darkest.  You and I are both women of color, but I'm Deep 1 and you are 3... we cannot wear the same foundation, yet some brands come on TV and offer one dark shade -- and then further the offense by saying for all rich skintones. How insulting.  I'm speaking for you Fair-to-Light complexions too because you often get the same sales line with the one shade option.

@Trix  Bless you!  I'm going to give it a try, varying serum/moisturizer until I get it right !

I ordered the TS. Since the concealer alone is something like $38, seemed like a good deal. I'm not too crazy about the complaints of it being sticky. I guess I'll just have to try. Was thinking of cancelling my order, but guess I'll see how it works for me.

Easy pass for me because there's too many shade colors.  I hate that.  Also, the concealer is sticky?  Won't be wasting money on this if that's the reviews.
