All Things Sephora

He really sold me on it! It seems like a great all in one product and good for sensitive skin. Have any of you tried it??

Yes it is AMAZING!

Well if you say it is then I'm definitely sold :hug:

I wrote about it somewhere when @elegant-one was asking. We tried it on one of my co workers. She has not so great skin - she doesn't take care of it. Dull, uneven skin tone, large pores, uneven texture... we tried it on her and after she washed it off oh man we were all standing and starring at her skin literally shocked what a difference. Brighter lighter glowy, less visible pores...

Sorry if this has been talked about before-- but has anyone tried out the Smashbox primer water? I've seen great reviews for it on YT, but it has mixed reviews on Sephora's actual site. I have combination skin. Lately it's been a tad dryer than usual due to my acne face wash, but I'm drinking lots of water and using a great moisturizer. Yet, my foundation is still caking up a bit around my drier spots that I've never had a problem with before. Don't wanna switch the face-wash regimen... it's kicking my acne's ass!

Anyway, sorry about the rant. Just curious about the Primer Water.

Smashbox hydrating primer would help more. It has gel texture it feels almost like a water. Great for skin that is acne prone and if someone uses aggressive anti acne products.

Good old Pharmaprix in Montreal! Speaking of UD, anyone ever use their De-Slick Oil-Control Makeup Setting Spray? I need a mattifying spray. I've never been oily, always dry but noticing some serious shine in the t-zone area of late.

I tried the De-Slick way back when it was first introduced. It made my face feel stick but it might have been reformulated since then. Now I use the All Nighter which I like it a lot and use everyday.

It's my HG highlight

Love. Is anybody else bothered by Temptalia giving products a bad review because they don't work with primers? It's just an accepted fact that most eye shadows need a base so I don't think she should give a mark off if they don't glide on extra smooth and pigmented without a base. She gave one or two of the Anastasia eyeshadows straight F's because of that.


I've seen people with darker skin saying they loved it for brightening and not correcting. It's named a corrector but I really don't think that's what it is because girls with lighter skin are saying it doesn't help dark circles either.

I wonder if the Becca Corrector could be layered with a corrector that actually corrects, and then with concealer of if that would be one product too many...

That's a good idea. I should try it! I always get a little nervous about that because I'm worried the acne will pop up again. It's really stubborn. My face always seems to need a new wash every 6 months because it just adapts. :/ Which I know is fairly normal but I'm running out of things to try. It's not cystic or severe acne but I'd consider it mild/moderate. I don't think I've ever had a day where I was completely clear of ance though. I'll have to check that out. Thank you  

Definitely try that! I use two different face washes and it really has helped to balance my skin. Using one all the time was either to much for my skin or not enough. I found a pretty good balance alternating them!

I have De-Slick as well. It brings things under control but I wouldn't say it's a mattifier.

I happen to like the All Nighter Spray better than the De-slick. It keeps my makeup from moving in the humid Miami weather.

Have you tried the Algenist Melting Cleanser? You should!!! Its an amazing skin clearing cleanser that keeps the skin hydrated & gives the skin its own natural glow. I also use 2 cleansers. I use the Algenist melting cleanser & my all time favorite - Chanel's Purete

My downtown store has the Becca corrector. I asked them to check in the back because online it said they had it in stock but it wasn't on the display. They pulled some from the back and had 3 left after I grabbed mine.

 

[Yazmin]

OMG this line is insane!!!

 

[montREALady]

De Slick doesn't mattify, I have it and it doesn't keep my chin from getting shiny.

Thanks!

That would be too much product for me. Otherwise it gets into my old lady lines. Loll! It works fine with just concealer though.

And of course indiscretion sold out before i checked out

Omg no! Wth is this, MAC?! I thought it was here for the long haul. The stores are pretty much well stocked with it here (NYC). The one I checked out on Monday had 4, I went today it was replenished. Another location had none, another, full. Have you checked your local Sephora?

I got it last week when Beauty Brands was doing 25%.. I like it a lot, but I am not sure it does much more than my Urban Decay all nighter spray..

I did watch a beauty YTer say that it has almost the exact same ingredients as Mac Charged water.. which is a lot cheaper..

I heard they are very similar.

My fav setting spray happens to be Avon but the bottle is so small. I've been meaning to try All Nighter for a while now.

They both look great on you, but I like Scandal.. beautiful.
