Face Atelier Cosmetics WOC Shades Swatches & Color Comparison

June 11, 2010 by Kim S. / blog, Product Swatches, Reviews / 0 comments

Description (source): The heart and soul of FACE atelier – an innovative approach to foundation that allows you to be in control. Ultra Foundation is a silicone-based emulsion that floats on top of the skin, doesn’t crease or flake, and lasts all day long. Hydrating yet oil-free, it obscures tiny lines and pores to ensure a smooth finish. No primer needed! It’s built into Ultra Foundation, thanks to the super sophisticated, silicone-based formula. Another bonus – it sets without powder, preserving the youthful, dewy finish.

Got those “I can never find my shade” foundation blues? Only FACE atelier allows you to infinitely adjust your foundation shade. Add a drop of Zero Plus or revolutionary Zero Plus Plus to go a shade darker, or a splash of Zero Minus to lighten. Superstar Heat adds warmth, transforming shades before your very eyes.

Benefits

1.Forms a lightweight, breathable second skin that is both moisture and oil resistant. It is truly non-comedogenic and is ideal for troubled or mature skin.

2. Diminishes fine lines and wrinkles and gives the illusion of a smoother, more uniform and naturally dewy finish.

Price: $45/ 1 oz. or $1 sample

#10: A Cool Brown with a Subtle Green Undertone. (Would be NC47 if MAC had one)

#11: Mid-tone brown with a hint of red. (MAC NW45)

#12: Rich brunette with golden undertones (NW 50)

Zero++: A super rich Eggplant black, use alone or mix in with other foundation to deepen them. (Mixes well with Zero+, heat, and #11 to lighten).

Heat: Beautiful orange used to “warm” foundations; great as liquid blush or lip stain too!

For all of you MAC NC45 Wearers, Use Face Atelier’s Foundation in #9

MAC NC50 is #0 – I don’t have that so I ended up mixing #10 & #11 together from the WOC Shades.

I hope this helps!

Swimsuit Buys & Dilemma

June 11, 2010 by Kim S. / blog / 16 Comments

The bathing suit that I wanted that my sister purchased for me was too big (CHECK THIS POST). The torso was too long, and because I have such large boobies, I looked a little like a pornstar .:LOL:. so I had to return it. .:WOMP WOMP:.

I ended up picking out these three. One is on back order. One of them I already have from two years ago, but in a solid color. It fits me really well.

Back Ordered until 6/15/2010 – Good thing my trip isn’t until August 13th!

I already have this one in Lilac, and I look so good in it .:lol:.

I liked this print though.

I never had a sequined swim suit before. This one looked, fun, flirty & cute. I don’t think I have a pink suit anyway. Triangle tops fit my large busts well too!

Any of you have issues when it comes to buying bathing suits?

If so, what?
