Combo to Oily skin (T-ZONE only)
Price: Originally $22 but it was on sale from Shoppers at $7.
Packaging: Cheap! Wish it was better, very breakable so you have to be extra careful with this and not throw it around.
Quality: 10 g
Reading all the raves this product got, I got sucked in and bough it. When I went to purchase this item it turned out to be on sale for $7!! I was worried on something that I wouldn't like and cant exchange. I decided to buy the three shades it offered: 01, 02, 03.
I am in love with this product!!! It offers a soft matte finish, light coverage, be careful when building it might get cakey. Wearing this I look flawless! I definitely will purchase this again, For the staying powder I top this with my Pond Blemish and Oil control powder(which is amazing) and it lasts on me for about a good 4-5 hours before I start showing signs of oiliness, but when I do start getting oily it dosnt look greasy, or starts melting or rubbing off, it looks dewy but not to dewy, definitely not shiny I go a couple hours more without blotting, about 8-10 hours, by than Ill start blotting or applying the Ponds powder again. What I noticed about this powder it takes about a good 5 minutes before it sets, At first when I put it on it looked very powdery and cakey, but when I finished the rest of my makeup. I looked flawless, with a soft matte finish, evened out skin tone. I get so many compliments, that my face looks nice. Today, when I went back to shoppers looking at makeup a beauty adviser who works there asked that my face looks nice and asked if I was wearing make up forever, and when I told him it was gosh he said it looked good and that I shouldn't change it. :)
My routine for wearing this powder:
Start off with concealing my blemish and acne scars with Hard Candy camouflage concealer and a 15 palette concealers that I got from ebay.
Than I apply Hardy Candy one step foundation. (1-2 layers)
Than its my gosh pressed powder in 02
I contour, apply blush, eyeshadow do my eyebrows .....)
Last I use a finishing powder, Ponds blemish and oil control (loose pink translucent)Will make a review soon on it.
I definitely recommend this and the ponds powder for oily skin girls!

This powder foundation gives a light-to-medium coverage. An amazing finish, semi-matte & natural look. This is my third compact. I had a love hate relationship, why? BECAUSE IT HAS HORRIBLE OIL CONTROL. It would last about 2-3hs before sliding around and creasing. BUT I FOUND AN AMAZING SOLUTION that keeps it from creasing, sliding around or getting shinny and looking fresh all day. PONDS OIL BLEMISH CONTROL POWDER (have a review).It keeps it shine free and crease free for about 8hs :)
I a NC 25-30 I have shade BUFF(has more yellow).
Recommend it for dry to Normal skin types
Repurchase No, I dnt own the Ponds Powder anymore.

I have an oily t-zone and have been staying away from creme foundations, but when i read these great reviews I couldn't resist. The price is pretty expensive 36$ from pharamaplus but you do get a lot of product so its definitely worth it.
*The finish of this product is a healthy dewy glow, I obviously have to set it with a oil absorbing powder, I just purchased Palladio loose rice powder, I cant wait to see how well they will work together :) I blot every 4-6 hours when i am not using a setting powder.
*The coverage is medium to full, its very build-able.
*The way i apply is useing the sponge that comes with the foundation i dabit on my face and it gives me a medium coverage, I do use concelour under my eyes I have terrible dark circles.
Wiil update when I use my Palladio powder with it.
UPDATE:
Definitely not for oily skin! This still offers an amazing finish and coverage, but the staying power is just horrible not matter what mattifying powder I use over this I get oily after two hours! They should have an oil free one! After blotting it just doesn't look good any more. I think Ill use this as a concealer for under eye (offers medium coverage) I dnt think pharmaplus takes cosmetics back and I lost the receipt for this :(
Will not purchase again!
Powders I used with this is Palladio loose rice powder, Gish pressed powder, Ponds Blemish and Oil control, Body shop base powder and Mark powder foundation. I still had to blot after two hours too much work, especially when I'm in school most of the day, just not worth it. :(
IF YOU HAVE DRY TO NORMAL SKIN GO FOR IT WILL GIVE U A BEAUTIFUL GLOW AND NATURAL FINISH

I own pretty much all the body shop shower gels and this one smells the yummest!
What I look for in a shower gel is that it smells good, doesnt dry my skin and cleans well.
It had a citrus-oragy smell to it, it feels engergzing and fresh,. I love that the bottle is clear so you can see how much you have left,, Alittle goes a long way with this, I dont likw how its runny, sometime I end up using too much.
Will definitly repurchase!
Reccomend to girls and boys who love strong fruity smells.

I have bee in and out at Yves Rocher but never tried any of their beauty products. One day I saw that they had a sale on shower gels, get 3 for 10$. I decided it would make a great gift to take with me for my mother-in-law. The lady asked me If I wanted to sign up to hear about sales and promtions, so I thought why not. Few weeks later I got a card in the mail for a free mascara!!! I lov the L'oreal Voluminous mascara its my all time favourite, so I decided on this mascara Sexy Pulp beacuse it promised lash by lash
Volume. I cant say much about their prices because I got this for free, but I beileve their reasonably priced.
The packaging is black with an angled top, on the top it has a silver logo of the brand, and at the end of the lid in silver lettering the brands name all around. In pink letters on the tube it says Sexy Pulp ultra volume mascara. On the back so in pink letters states that it has a maxi brush that gives lash by lash volume.
Opening it up it has the light typical mascara scent. The want is straight and the bristles go fat than than thin than again, sort of curved.
I have long eyelashes but this mascara makes them even longer. It doesnt clump, it doesnt dry to fast which makes it great for layering. It is volumizing and holds my lashes for a long time.
This has became a favourite, I will definitly repurchase.
I reccomend this for people with short lashes and like to layer mascara without dealing with clumps. Now I am really intrested to try out their other products.
