Review: UD Primer Potion in Sin

Hi!, this is a review on Urban Decays Primer Potion in the color Sin. This is a eye shadow primer base that you apply to your lids before the application of your eye makeup. I have the sample size that came with an eye shadow palette I purchased. The full size product retails for about $18 at any UD counter and were ever UD is sold. Ulta, Sephora, or online.  UD.com currently has all three versions of UD primer potion on sale for $10 each! (excluding the original).

 This version of the UD primer potion series: Sin is a tinted primer that has a champagne metal color the color of the tube matches that of the product.  This primer leaves a light sheen  of shimmer on the lids.  

The applicator of the primer potion is a slanted sponge tip doe foot applicator. I like that it is slanted so I can reach most of the product. Over all I like this product but I have one major problem.

Like all primer potions a little bit will go a long way and to much will make your eye shadows crease. But regardless of how much I use, at the end of the day I still get creasing on my eye lids. This version is not as long lasting as the original formula.  Compared to the original formula the lasting power is not there. So for hot days or day I know I will be out and about for a long time I will not use this. But for every day and when I'm wearing minimal eye shadows, this is good.

Color Pants Frenzy! OOTD Oct 31,2011

Color pants frenzy!

This fall season has me crazy for colored pants.  Here I'm wearing a pair of teal pants with a classic black v-neck. I tucked in the shirt and added a skinny belt, to add some neutral color breakage.  And I put on some brown booties I found on clearance for $8! score.

 I originally had a scarf on because it was cold in the morning but by the afternoon it was way to hot to wear it anymore.

Review: Elizabeth Arden: Clear the Way Mask.

This has become my holy grail product for my acne prone skin.  When I discovered this and the results I got from using this product I was so excited. This cleanser/ mask has help my skin clear up and stay clear for almost 6 months now. I still do get the occasional pimple but overall my skin has been very good to me and I can honestly say it is because of this product. I came upon this product randomly at my local Marshalls and because I heard good things about Elizabeth Arden products in general I decided to give this cleanser a shot. 

I am so happy I did. This was only 5.99 at Marshalls and it retails for almost $30 at a department store. Major deal and when I found out how good it is to my skin I hunted them down from all the Marshall in my area. I'm stocked up for a while now.
The texture of this product is of a thick grainy paste that acts like an exfoliate and cleanser. Though the title of the product states "mask", its really not. Its a very textured paste that is better for cleansing and exfoliate. It leaves my skin feeling fresh and if I let is sit on my skin for a few minutes as a "mask" it leave my skin feeling very soft and moisturized. For everyday use it may be a bit much and for skin that is already pretty sore and has large active acne I would not use this. This is more of a "keep the pimples and break outs away and to never form".  kind of product. A skin care upkeep. I like to use this about 2-3 times a week to give my skin a perk up.

This is fragrance free and dermatologist tested, so it should be suitable for people with sensitive skin. The bottle holds 3.6 oz of product for a merger price of 5 -6 dollars is a great price. And even though I stocked up on backups I am still working on my fist bottle of this stuff. You need very little to cleanse your face.

(ps: I have no foundation/bb cream on, just mattifying powder which is translusent)
 As you can see the acne has disappeared from my cheeks and forehead. very happy :)
Overall great find. A repurchase for sure. I highly recommend this for people with acne prone skin. It really helped me and maybe you too :)
