			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are looking for an all natural foundation that provides great coverage, fights signs of aging and protects your skin, then I have just the one for you. It is called, &#034;Almay Pure Blend Makeup&#034;, and it is made by the Almay cosmetic company with all natural ingredients from the earth.
</p>
<p>Almay Pure Blend Makeup is made with tons of natural ingredients such as Water, Jojoba Oils, Squalane, Glycerin, Sweet Almond Oils, Acai, Sucrose Laurate, Cetyl Alcohol, Cellulose Stearic Acid, Euterpe Oleracea Fruit Extract, Citrus Junos Peel Extract, Nelumbo Nucifera Flower Extract, Cymbidium Grandiflorum Flower Extract, Wild Pansy Extracts, Papaya, Phospholipids, Rosewood, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Carrot Oils, Xanthan Gum, Glyceryl Stearate, Alcohol, Silica, Sodium Borate, Caprylyl Glycol, Hexanediol, Mica, Titanium Dioxide, and Iron Oxides. All these natural ingredients work together to help provide your skin with the natural coverage you are looking for in a foundation while slowing down the aging processes and protection your skin from environmental factors such as the weather and pollution.
</p>
<p>Almay Pure Blend Makeup comes in nine different shades such as honey, beige, ivory, warm, naked, neutral, sand, tan, and buff. You will most likely find a shade that matches almost every skin tone, which is always nice. The best way to apply the Almay Pure Blend Makeup is by squeezing the 1.0 ounce decorated tube of makeup onto your finger tips and then massaging it into your skin in an upward out type of motion to provide maximum coverage to your face until all the foundation is absorbed into your skin and all areas of your face you want covered are covered. You can spend the Almay Pure Blend Makeup during anytime of the day or night, but I like to use it after I have done my normal facial care routine.
</p>
<p>Almay Pure Blend Makeup cost in between eleven and twelve dollars depending on where you purchase this product. I usually would prefer the Almay Pure Blend Makeup on drugstore.com or at my Rite Aid Drugstore, but you can find this makeup in almost every grocery store and drugstore across the country. You can even gather the Almay Pure Blend Makeup at Target and Wal-Mart for even a cheaper price if it&#039;s on sale. I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for an affordable all natural foundation that does what it is suppose to do. I really hope those of you who try the Almay Pure Blend Makeup really enjoy using it as much as I do. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Bronzer is a improbable manufacture up product that is a very fine pressed powder, usually found in a matte finish. I personal find it best to a apply powder bronzer with a tall oversized makeup brush and not the small makeup brush that usually comes with the bronzer. When I buy a product like either Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror or Almay Powder Bronzer I expect even coverage, a natural color, and long lasting color. I am desirable fair skinned and get tired of looking pale and washed out. So, basically I have tried quite a few bronzer powders in my time. Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer are just two of many. I do have to say that Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer do have quite a few qualities in approved that beget them perfect for a comparison of one bronzer powder versus another. Both Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer can easily be found in any grocery store or drug store. Noted cosmetic companies make them both and best of all they each cost apt around ten dollars.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bronzer is a improbable manufacture up product that is a very fine pressed powder, usually found in a matte finish. I personal find it best to a apply powder bronzer with a tall oversized makeup brush and not the small makeup brush that usually comes with the bronzer. When I buy a product like either Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror or Almay Powder Bronzer I expect even coverage, a natural color, and long lasting color. I am desirable fair skinned and get tired of looking pale and washed out. So, basically I have tried quite a few bronzer powders in my time. Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer are just two of many. I do have to say that Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer do have quite a few qualities in approved that beget them perfect for a comparison of one bronzer powder versus another. Both Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer can easily be found in any grocery store or drug store. Noted cosmetic companies make them both and best of all they each cost apt around ten dollars.
</p>
<p>Natural Color
</p>
<p>Ok, the most important feature when buying a bronzer powder is always always always the color. The color of a bronzer powder should be warm, sun kissed, and most of all flatteringly natural. There is no other intention to go. Orange is just unnatural and pink is objective an over priced blush. Both Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer looked very brown, sun kissed and natural in their packaging, which is why I decided to try them. Never purchase a bronzer powder that doesn&rsquo;t even look good in the box. How can you expect a product that looks like an unnatural color to compliment your face?  Overall I have to say that the Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror was amore natural color on my fair skin. I looked sun kissed, slightly tanned, and basically natural. It provided a hint of color that was not overwhelming. Less is always more, which is most definitely legal with bronzer powders. The Almay Powder Bronzer went on a shrimp too dark for fair skin tones. In all fairness though, neither of these product may have been made with a beautiful skin tone in mind.
</p>
<p>Even Coverage
</p>
<p>I assume on of the reasons it felt like the Almay Powder Bronzer was a dinky too dark for my skin was that it really did not apply evenly. I felt like the bronzer powder was so pressed into the container that when I managed to get some on my oversized makeup brush that there was fair too much on the brush. I tried knocking some of the bronzer powder off by tapping the brush on the counter, but then it seemed like I didn&rsquo;t even gape any bronzer on my face. On the other hand I was able to win an even coating of the Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror on my make up brush and easily dust some across my face.
</p>
<p>Long Lasting
</p>
<p>One of my favorite features about a bronzer powder like Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer is that you can put it on about an hour before you are ready to go out and let it combine with the natural oils in your skin. Bronzer powders seem to look better after they have been on you for a while versus right when you apply them. This may be because many bronzer powders easily brush off of your skin, but once they combine with your natural oils they are more set in place. This was no expectation with both Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror and Almay Powder Bronzer. I highly recommend not putting on a white shirt after you have fair applied these bronzer powers to your face. You will definitley have some brown coloring on your shirt. If you are going to wear white with either one, make sure you let the bronzer powder settle for a while.
</p>
<p>Overall I have to say that the Revlon Bronzer With Pop-Up Mirror is a better more natural looking product compare to the Almay Powder Bronzer. It applies more evenly and looks flattering on fair skin.
</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While shopping for a foundation one day, I happened to come across the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory. Since the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory seemed like it might be a good foundation, I decided to try it out. I paid around $5 for the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory at the time I purchased it.
</p>
<p>The day after I purchased the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory, I decided that I would try it out. I dispensed some of the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory onto my fingers and then blended the foundation on my face. I noticed that the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory blended pretty well. I also noticed that the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory seemed to match my skin tone well.
</p>
<p>After a couple of days of wearing the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory, I was sensing that my skin was drying out. My face felt too dry, and the only culprit that I could pinpoint the problem to was the Rimmel Discontinue Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory. The Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory had to be drying my skin out. I decided to wear the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory for a few more days following that, and I discovered that the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory was indeed causing my dry skin.
</p>
<p>I also didn&#039;t discover that the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory clarified my skin at all. If anything, I got a few pimples from using the Rimmel Discontinue Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory that I didn&#039;t have before. I loathe when foundation (like the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory) makes my skin break out.
</p>
<p>Even though the Rimmel Conclude Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory blended well, and matched my skin tone well, I will not be repurchasing it in the future. The downsides of the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory totally outweigh the upsides. The Rimmel Pause Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory seemed like a reasonably priced foundation, and I was hoping that I would like it. Unfortunately, the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory just didn&#039;t work for me. I wish the Rimmel Stay Matte Clarifying Matte Foundation in Ivory would&#039;ve worked better.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was given a trial of CoverGirl Smoky ShadowBlast to sample and review. I was quite wrathful to try it. Let me start by saying, I DO know how to create a smoky eye look on my believe. I didn&#039;t technically need this product, but the thought of a quick smoky discover seemed handy for days when I didn&#039;t have time to fuss with eye shadow. With that said, here is my review.
</p>
<p>I received this product in the shade Silver Sky. I love the look of silvery smoky eyes so I was even more excited to try it. In the package the product looks nice. It is a chubby double-ended cream shadow stick. There is a rounded smoky silver side, and a tapered brownish plum side. I have green eyes and pale skin so I was obvious this would be a great color combo for me.
</p>
<p>I decided in order to give a completely objective review on this product I would use it on its own. I normally use an recognize shadow primer under all of my eye shadow, to ensure staying power. Since the directions on this never stated to use a primer, I skipped it, so it would not interfere with the results.
</p>
<p>This product included a card with directions on how to apply the shadow. I started by using the rounded silver side and applied the color all over my lid as directed. The first thing I noticed was the rounded tip created a lot of tear on my bare eye lid. This means that instead of it flowing on smoothly, it tugged at the eye lid and pulled the skin, making it very hard to get a smooth layer of color. For reference, I have normal eye lids. They are not too dry and not too oily and I normally never have a problem applying cream eye shadow products. To fix that quandary I pulled my eye lid taut as I applied the shadow and that helped the color to glide on better. I try to avoid doing this though because tugging at your eye lids is not agreeable for the delicate skin around your eyes.
</p>
<p>After I finished the lid, I proceeded to apply the silver color to the lower lash line as also directed on the card. This was tricky. With one swipe, the shadow on the lower lash line was uneven and blotchy. I ended up having to line the bottom lash line 5 times before the color looked level-headed and even. Even then it looked very shiny and somewhat &#034;off.&#034;
</p>
<p>Next, the directions state to apply the tapered tip side to the upper lash line and in the crease. Don&#039;t bother with lining the upper lash line with this. The color did not show up on my upper lash line at all. I&#039;m sure this has to do with the fact that I applied it over the thick layer of silver. Oh well. I planned to finish off my look with black eye liner anyway so no hurt done. I applied the brownish plum in the crease. I did appreciate the color and thought it went well with the silver. The tapered raze made it very easy to exercise in the tight corner of the crease. The formula is another story. The product was so sticky that when I closed my eye and opened it again, the color would crease and ruin the look. I had to reapply to even it out. I finally got it to look halfway decent and repeated the entire process on my other eye.
</p>
<p>After this was done I stepped back to look at myself. I was not happy with what I saw. By the time I had finished with my second eye, the shadow on the first eye was already blotchy, creasing, and wearing off. Yuck! Also, the directions did not state to blend the eye shadow in any way. I found this so odd because the trick to a good smoky gaze is all in the blending. To me, the crease looked very harsh. With my eye open, the eye lid color looked pretty. It was quite sparkly and the silver was a deep smoky silver that my pale skin could pull off. When I closed my eyes however, the crease looked hideous and greasy. I decided to try to fix it by using my finger to blend it all out a bit. Since this was a cream, I dilapidated my finger and lightly tapped the areas that needed blending so I wouldn&#039;t rub too much of the product off. This helped a bit. What tremulous me though is that the cream had not dried at all. When I touched it to blend the first notice it was composed wet, sticky, and even a minute greasy! The blending did seem to help it look less harsh though.
</p>
<p>I finished the look off with my favorite black eye liner on the upper lash line and the waterline. The eye liner ended up turning purple. I realize now it was the tapered side that I applied to my upper lash line that caused this. I used two coats of CoverGirl LashBlast mascara, which was recommended on the product&#039;s directions. I normally love LashBlast. Unfortunately, somehow the silver color had migrated a dinky into the base of my lashes coating them with a greasy silver residue, so the mascara ended up failing as well.
</p>
<p>Though I do like the colors, I am very disappointed in this product overall. I checked my face every hour after application, and each time, it had faded and creased more and more. I constantly had to mess with it, blend spots that had become gunky and apply more product on spots where it had veteran off. I wasn&#039;t a big fan of all the glitter fallout I now noticed under my eyes either. Also I never have a problem with my eye liner, but it wore off within the first hour of wearing it over top of the ColorBlast. Four hours later, I decided to stop messing with it. I didn&#039;t check it again for the rest of the night. At the end of the night I did a final check. All that was left on my eyes was chunky silver glitter and the remnants of creased up shadow lines here and there.
</p>
<p>I am quite embarrassed to post the picture I have of my witness with this product on. It was taken 1 hour after application and before touching it up. It really made me look like a beginner who has no idea how to apply or blend makeup, much less create a graceful smoky eye. Maybe with a primer this would have worked better. But, I don&#039;t think a product should require a primer in order for it to do what it claims to do.
</p>
<p>A smoky eye in my plan is just that, smoky! It should be blended nicely to behold like it melds with your skin while creating a deep, sultry, smoky effect. CoverGirl Smoky Shadow Blast did not give me a smoky look at all. It was a shiny, sticky mess that creased up horribly and had absolutely no staying power. I honestly don&#039;t recommend it to anyone. If you already know how to do a decent smoky eye with an eye shadow, stick to that. This product would be a downgrade in my opinion. If you&#039;re a beginner who wants to learn how to create a smoky eye this could possibly be helpful. The tapered end of the crease color really does a good job of following the eye sockets&#039; natural curve. Unfortunately, you have to use the product with it. I honestly think if I were a beginner, and I tried this, it would only frustrate me.<br /></p>
