I like dewy!  If I look too shiny, I can always brush on a bit of powder.  I'm more concerned with the interaction among the ingredients.

 

Tired and going to get ready for bed soon, but I want to look into this more tomorrow.


More importantly, Loreal purchased IT. Loreal tests on animals. I never support companies who do.🐰

@Sweet_Serenity   I'm really glad you mentioned that.   I did not know that L'Oreal bought IT cosmetics.   I don't buy anything L'Oreal for that very reason!!!  Now I will NEVER buy IT cosmetics for the same reason!!

Google the buy out, Amount billions. What I can't understand! Why Loreal continues testing on animals? Same goes for all companies.

Sorry, for the additional post, however, Jamie touts her products as special since they work with dermatologists and science, they take years to develop products.

This really makes me wonder, this  no no of mixing of retinol and spf is skin care 101. 

Not only will retinol and spf not work together it ages skin and can damage skin!

 


I've heard her say they work with plastic surgeons, which are not dermatologists. Scientists?  All the buzz words...

Re: IT Cosmetics needs to know:

It's all very confusing. I'm in my mid 40's and have had a hard time finding the right retinol cream. I recently tried the Dr. Denese line and saw zero difference in my lines. I wanted to check out the It cosmetics line but now am thinking about just making an appointment with my dermatologist.

Does it have retinol in it? If it does I seriously doubt it has much to do anything.

@Kegla7

 

The aesthetician at my dermatologist's office carries generic retinol or tretinoin in various %ages.  The 0.05% runs about $80 with tax.    It got rid of some brown spots and the fine lines ( 72 now ).   HTH

They showed the make-up on an older woman and it looked terrible. It was heavy and looked shiny. Also, it emphasized her bags under her eyes. Another TSV hype. I wish they would quit the hard sell, it is a turn off.

Helen has a lot of wrinkles. The other models all look beautiful with it on.
