I’ve loved MILANI since their inception about 25 years ago. My tried and true product has been their Powdercreme Foundation Compact for both myself and clients. Its formula delivers a creamy soft, blend-able coverage with staying power and a fabulous...

Shouting out MILANI’S Green Goddess Transforming Lip Balm. Extremely emollient & buttery smooth. Don’t let that clear green earth tone fool you! It imparts a subtle yet definitively noticeable clear pink sheen when you’re going for a more natu...

Absolutely love this adorable blush that is actually in a compact molded into an adorable rose. In this case a Tea Rose which seems to go well with neutral toned skin. Deliciously lightly scented as well. There are two other such MILANI Rose single...

Another fave l use for myself and clients. Comes in more than one quad so there are fair to light, light to medium, & medium to deep shades for all tones & complexions. Similar to the Powdercreme make up compact but thicker in consistency an...

I’ve been an avid user of the MILANI Powdercreme compact makeup for years. I thought this would be a lighter version if you will and was pleasantly surprised. Imparts extremely smooth buildable coverage used either with or without primer with eith...

I had heard about Herbatint for years before switching but never thought as a nature based product that it would give the coverage needed for persistent gray/white hair. It does!!! All of my roots which if grown out would make about a third of my ha...

Love Love Love this one by Valentino l received as a sample named; “See You Later”. Looks darker in the tube and l always apply clear gloss about an hour before my lipstick. Neutral but enough. On the more expensive end but we all deserve luxury a...

The Skin You’re In

 
Noelle Brousseau profile picture
This economical make up choice is great. Marketed as a tinted moisturizer it works as a foundation if applied properly with a sponge or beauty blender on those with young or a naturally good skin texture. Otherwise prime a bit first. Recently used...
Makeup Revolution Superdewy Tinted Moisturiser
 
Noelle Brousseau profile picture
This literally is THE best in my book for higher end primer. Alone makes skin look like spun glass. A small amount under foundation eases on your choice of foundation/concealer without pulling or tugging if your skin is on the drier or aging end. ...
The Original Photo Finish Smooth & Blur Primer
 
Noelle Brousseau profile picture
This enriched cleanser is absolutely amazing from JAFRA. Infused with vegan collagen & algae complex it works well for those with fabulous skin and for those whom are acne prone. The whole line including the serum are excellent and mid to high p...
Jafra Vegan Novomarine Novo Marine Face Cleaner 4.2 Fl Oz
 
Noelle Brousseau profile picture
Absolutely love this serum. The caffeine in it tends to reduce puffiness under the eyes or TBH anywhere else it’s needed. A light weight serum in a bottle with a dropper to control amounts dispensed. I tend to use it at night at bedtime after clean...
NEW! JAFRA BioLab Eye Serum 3% Caffeine Complex + EGCG Derivative

Loving the wholesome ingredients in here and how you only need a pinch (pea sized amount) to create a foaming lather. And what a lather it is! Very foamy & naturally green scented. No perfumed residue here. Left me feeling adequately cleansed ...
