I like my quad a lot! They work all well together but you can use colors in other looks too, it seems like it will be very versatile.

LOL brightest crayons. But we get those no matter where you work, hehe. I tried the moisture surge myself after I had a chemical burn on my face from a retinoid cream. Moisture surge was the only thing that didn't sting but it couldn't keep the skin hydrated. I went to a drug store pleading for help and she gave me a roc product specifically designed for people using retinoids and shite, that burn got better quickly. I still use the cream because it is the only thing that locks moisture into my chronically dry skin the whole day. I like the lightness of moisture surge but it's not for burns lol.

I know there's aloe in it for sure but I'll have to look that up on Friday night when I'm back at work. I work for Clinique so that is why I was curious lol I try to make sure people use the right products or at least help them pinpoint reactions they may get because some consultants that work for us aren't always the brightest crayons in the box lol. |

Oh yeah burns not good! lol well it worked ok on a sunburn I had once on my face but it was just a slight one nothing major, but yeah it just helps lock in moisture although if your oily like me it can work for a plain moisturizer too. I'm going to try and see if they can't get me to become a Level 2 Clinical Consultant so I can learn more on the skin, which products would be right for someone if their under a doc's care or if their taking certain things if that product is still safe to use. I also want to learn and know more about skin reactions too.

That would be pretty fascinating actually. I kind of take the consultants word at face value, like turnaround concentrate is the shit and whatnot, but then I get home and want to know what exactly is in this thing I've been putting on my face twice a day. I'm completely hopeless when it comes to dermatology stuff.

Yeah Clinique is pretty good on education us on how the skin works, etc. But it's the ingredients and how it helps works with the skin is what I'm dying to know so I can pass that info along is what I'd like to learn which luckily this new certification will help do. Turnaround is alright but I much prefer Even Better Skin Tone Corrector!

Yeah I know they focus so much on 3-step and yet you have all this other stuff to do too so it's not really 3 steps more like 8 or more lol.

I'm the same way. I want it but don't know if I really need it or if the colors will really work for me.

Neonkitty, what roc product did you use? Just curious for next time.
Smokesignal, I hope you make it to Level 2 consultant. From your posts, this seems like a passion for you. Good luck!
Nunu, how do you like Blush of Youth? I'm close to the same coloring as you and didn't get it because many said it didn't really show up on their skintone. Does it show up on you as a blush? Steal My Heart is so pretty. Did you try it with the lipstain Secret Crush? It is a gorgeous combo.

Hey there!
I wasn't going to buy this BPB because i heared that it won't up on me as well but the MA convinced me to try it because she said she tried it on a costumer close to my colouring and it highlighted her face nicely..so,i caved
It does show up as a soft pink blush on me bit i have to layer it on however, it's more of a highlight for our skintone. The other BPB wouldn't show up on me which i thought was weird because it's darker than the other one.
I haven't tried the lipstains because i don't like the formula. Unfortunately it dries my lips.

^^ how exciting... I would love to see some FOTDs
please because I suck at eye application...
I am waiting patiently for mines to come... I saw the demo ones at my Nordies but they were out, so I kindly asked the MA if she knew if the other stores (a lot farther from me) had them and she called one and found it! Thank goodness, the shipping was free of charge and she charged me with local tax instead of the higher tax that the other store has in that city. I felt so grateful.

Thanks! Yeah I made myself do it today but I was only going to wal-mart so I wasn't going to glam it up too much, I'm going to wear it when I get my SW stuff tomorrow but I might mess with the colors some more. That was the only thing I could think of to do with it at that moment lol.
