Hey Makeup Lovers!!
 
Just an FYI

Never Pay Full Price For Professional Cosmetics Again --Frustrated with the rising cost of professional quality cosmetics, two African American sisters launched a new website that offers high-end cosmetics, for low-end prices.--


Bolingbrook, IL (BlackNews.com) - Like everything else, the cost of high quality cosmetics have sky-rocketed. The days of $10.00 lipsticks at the mall, are long gone, well not anymore. Sisters, Theresa Phillips, and Tasha Pitchford have developed a line of high quality cosmetics to help ease the purchase of your favorite beauty products.

"We were just tired of paying high prices for quality make-up such as MAC®, and Iman®," said President Tasha Pitchford. "We needed a solution, and it was not your local drug or discount store makeup." This is why www.628cosmetics.com was launched in 2006.

The name 6.2.8 Cosmetics, was decided on because the two sisters share the same birth date June, 28. "My sister, and I love make-up," said CEO, Theresa Phillips. "We felt like professional black women needed a way to get quality make-up for lower prices."

M.A.C. is the only way to go :) I LOVE their lipglass and eye paints. My favorite is C-Thru when wearing the smokey eye look and for everyday I like Poco Pink or Prr

I use bare minerals for my foundation, and I LOVE it. However, I use MAC for practically everything else.

I know I should have posted this here at first. . .
 
. . .and this is what I get for not doing so. I posted this a couple of days ago over in Chit Chat, so I'm bringing it home where it should have been.

Ladies,

Through another website (and speaking with one other person that's used this), I've found out about a product called
"Model in a bottle". Have any of you used it before? It's supposed to keep your makeup in place and give you a nice, matte finish. I'd be interested to hear what you think if you've used it.

Dr. Susan Taylor's Rx for Brown Skin

Links:Sepora, Rx for Brown Skin

Have any GCers tried this skincare line? I received a free sample of the Bright and Healthy Ultra-Gentle Moisturizer. It worked well, and left my unusually DRY skin moisturized. I really want to try the Ultra Gentle Cleanser.
