I also wear Bareminerals daily..love their products especially the WELL RESTED eye shadow/concealer (makes you look like you got 8 hours of sleep when you know good and well you only got like 2 hours sleep)

I love Dolce and Gabbana "Light Blue"

I go with MAC products

Makeup suggestions
 
I mix it up with Bobbi Brown (concealer is among the best and the foundation), MAC (I like most of their products and wear the liquid foundation daily), Guerlain (the bronzer in No. 3 or 4 great for women of color), Fashion Fair (certain lipsticks), and Chanel (the lip gloss is outstanding).

What shade are you? I've been wearing this for about 9 months now, and also just purchased warm radiance, which I absolutely love!

bare minerals
 
I was a complete MAC junkie until I tried bare minerals!I wear it daily and its so natural. It doesn't give me that "I can feel all this stuff on my face" feeling! I still wear MAC, lancome, and chanel glosses though.

quick question how do you guys feel about that Dior Mascara....I'm currently using Maybelline (the pinkbottle green top) but I want a mascara that really lengthens my eyelashes almost to the point where they appear as falsies lol.



also i know this isn't make-up related but its still in the cosmetics area...any tips on prepping for a brazilian wax....i'm thinking of trying one

For a lengthining mascara, I will swear by Cover Girl's Lash Exact in the purple bottle endorsed by Queen Latifah! That mascara makes your eyelashes POP and it is very well priced. Sometimes, you can catch them on sale at CVS, Walgreen's, or Wal-Mart for like 2 for $8 bucks!! I would def recommend that!!!

I used the Dior mascara for a while and it is good but after that bottle ran out, I refused to pay another $25. I've found one that is EVEN BETTER!! Revlon 3D. OMG!! It is the best one I've used yet!

I wear warm tan, and wasn't thrilled about it because I felt like I looked ashy - but I think I may have been applying too much, especially on the forehead. I think I may have found what help me with that as well. I don't officially have the tinted mineral veil, but when I went to a BE store, she put a little AOFC in my MV that I brought with me from home for possible exchange. I also wore some AOFC for my foundation for a while, but it wasn't doing what I wanted. So about 2 months ago, I purchased more warm tan (had exchanged it in June for the AOFC) and the BE handy buki brush. Now I do the foundation, then the AOFC, then the MV, then the warm radiance, and I'm in love again!

I also understand that there are a couple of other companies that have mineral makeup especially for women of color.

My cousin uses purminerals which is the pressed powder for those that have seroius acne problems (which she does) and she loves it because she gets the coverage that she needs and it doesn't feel cakey!

I also had to tweak my foundation until they came out with the warm deep shade! I love the tinited mineral veil because it has a hint of warmth in it so I don't need to use the warmth AOFC! But in the winter time I wear the dark foundation because I'm a little lighter during the winter months than summer!

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.

i ordered the Rx for Brown Skin Bright & Even skin care regimen. It should be here Monday, so I'll starting using it and post how well it works.
