I've never used Ojon, but IMO the BEST hair iron I have ever used is the Maxi Glide. My nair NEVER frizzes and it stays straight, shiny, and silky.

Good luck with the Ojon!

I just bought a whole slew of things from Sephora including Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer and Benefit F.Y. Eye. I can't wait for it to get here!

I recently switched to using pretty much all Laura Mercier products on my sisters recommendation. I absolutely love them, including the tinted moisturizer.

I have VERY oily skin and StudioFix is the only thing I've found, so far that works on me. If the oil is working extra hard, I put a bit of oil control lotion from MAC on before I put makeup on, and my face stays oil free. I live by that stuff.

Dry Skin Help
 

I think I may have asked this question in the past, but I'm figuring there may be new products on the market.

I have severely dry skin. I have to use both a face oil and Jurlique Day Care Skin Cream (which is oily as well) and my facial skin still feels tight within six hours.

My problem with all makeup I've used is that I can't find any oil-based makeup (except for stage makeup which is ridiculously thick). So, when I put it on, my skin eventually soaks in the moisture so the makeup flakes off and looks crackly.

The only solution thus far has been to mix in a little of the Jurlique Day Care Skin Cream with the makeup so that it goes on and stays smooth.

Does anyone know of makeup WITH OIL in it that is not stage makeup?

That's the first time I've heard anyone ask for that! I know the Chanel Vitalumiere liquid foundation is formulated for "mature" skin so it's very moisturizing. I have normal skin and once was accidentally given this one instead of my usual (at the time) Teint Naturel. (did not look good considering my skin doesn't need the moisture!) Maybe you can ask for a sample at the counter so you don't have to buy it and return it. Although I do recommend purchasing it from Nordstrom for that reason :)

Are you sure oil is the best thing to look for? As opposed to another kind of moisturizer?

My skin is "oil-dry" meaning it does not produce the right amount of oil to protect itself. I have struggled all my life with severly dry skin and acne cysts that would be red and inflamed, but never come to a head. I've never had traditional acne.

Just a few years ago, I started seeing a natural skin care person who examined my skin and did some tests to determine that the problem was that there wasn't enough oil in the skin to push the dirt and bacteria out. I confirmed this finding with a dermatologist and began using facial oil and Jurlique Day Care Skin Cream. My skin has never looked healthier! :) And, I rarely get acne cysts anymore.

I have tried makeup for mature skin (it's what I currently use) because, as OtterXO mentioned, it is supposed to be very moisturizing. But, I always end up with tight skin and flaky makeup. That's why I mix some of the Jurlique cream with the makeup and that works a lot better.

Has anyone tried the StudioFix liquid?

Has anyone tried Benefit's Posietint yet? I'm really curious.
Otherwise, does anyone have any suggestions for a lip stain? Thanks!

I dont know about the posie tint. I do however love the lip & cheek stain from The Body Shop. Most lip stains you can also use on the cheeks as well.

Note: Make sure your lips are exfoiliated and not cracked before applying a lip stain!!!

i am completely obsessed with urban decay cosmetics. everything i have ever tried from them has been absolutely perfect!!! currently wearing:

big fatty mascara- black
eyeshadow- midnight cowgirl and smog (it makes a really different perfect summer smokey eye)
lips- XXX lip gloss in ID.
face- surreal skin universal mineral makeup


i would rather wear urban decay over any makeup i can find anywhere else. my mom and aunts hate me because they all sell mary kay, and i am obsessed with urban decay instead! they usually have decent sales going on at ULTA and i can honestly say i cant get enough. they last so long because they are pigment rich, so it is a decent investment. for christmas i told my fiance i NEED to have the eyeshadow vault. i cant wait!
