Tarte Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20

mah

not sure.... very very light coverage (i couldn't tell the difference...), it takes forever to absorb - not really sure if it does! returned.... but it has good ingredients and if you use a setting powder (i don't) i'm sure you'll like it. not for oily skin.

Tarte The Eraser Concealer

good

good on the skin, good coverage and finish. i use it for dark circles and it covers them perfectly. one thing i hate: the container!!!!

Tarte Cheek Stain

love it!

quick to apply, lasts forever (in the tube and on you skin!). it dries fast but it leaves you the time to apply it. after that, you don't have to worry about it for the rest of the day, when you get home it will still be on you cheeks! plus, good ingredients, no junk.

Lancome Effacernes Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer

good coverage

good coverage, long lasting but a bit too dry for the winter. perfect for the summer, it's waterproof so no worries when you sweat, it will be there!

Laura Mercier Mineral Powder SPF 15

shimmery

a bit too shimmery - perfect if you have perfect skin, otherwise it can show your imperfection even more (like large pores). great for setting make-up, it gives you a nice glow.

Laura Mercier Mineral Pressed Powder SPF 15

very good!

i love this powder, it's light but not drying. if you use the sponge you get a medium coverage, with a brush a light finish (which i love). not too matte, not too glittery, just perfect. the color blends easily with your natural skin tone. attention when you use the brush, lightly touch the powder, don't bee too hard or it will go everywhere! i love the fact that it contains natural ingredients and pearl powder. i highly recommend it!

M.A.C. Mineralize Skinfinish Natural

big NO

Besides saying that the sales woman was incredibly rude, she told me this was a mineral powder... what do i see? Talc as a first ingredient..... i still wanted to give it a chance but by the time i reached the car, my face started to itch, a lot! that has never happened to me before. so, RETURNED! plus, my face looked really cakey, dusty. i wouldn't recommend this to somebody with dry and sensitive skin, but i think it can work with combo/oily. still prefer Laura Mercier Mineral Pressed Foundation.
