Kevin Aucoin's Makeup Line

[teiko]

Heard from my swapper that he came up with a range of makeup line and she raves about the Sensual Skin Enhancer(USD 42) which she says is wildly popular. This could be used as a foundation as well as a concealer. Other things include:

Makeup Brushes
3 L/g
Shimmering Enhancer- white in colour (also very popular)
Lipsticks

She actually used the words "amazing" 2 to 3 times. Wondering if I should ask her to cp it for me. But I still got a brand new pot of Covermark that cost SGD 143 Help?? :roll:

i'm curious about the SSE too! sounds like a little would go a long way.. but i heard its hard to get a colour match and the price puts me off too..

[teiko]

Is it really difficult to get a colour match?? I must ask her when NY's power comes back.

[duckiee]

i think so.. heard that one colour from MAC would match a couple of other colours and they aren't in running order too.. (if i wear SX07 now i might not wear SX08 when i turn a shade darker)

[jemay]

heard is popular nowadays, but the feeling is like by terry skin enhancer to me though :huh:

[babyflite]

jemay, by terry is very sheer but the SSE is meant to be full coverage. i heard its really thick and you need only a tiny amount each time. i have samples coming to me soon, will try out and review then.

Then it sounds like my covermark foundation then. Just a small pea size will cover all types of skin imperfections(not scars though) and it cost more than the SSE......

I think it's even thicker than the Covermark, though I haven't seen the Covermark It's even thicker than the Illuminare. And it's so so thick that you really need a moisturized face to work with. Without moisturizer, it's almost unblendable. But it covers well yet does it very naturally. Because it's so so thick, you won't even need a pea-sized. In fact, you simply can't use this all over your face. It's to spot-treat.

Oh dear! Double whammy!! Will see if I can find anything in the web on this.

Eerrr! I think I am really ulu (out of touch). Didn't know he'd pass on.....

He died of a brain tumor I think, sad huh.
Wish I can have just a 3/4 of his talent.
I think neimanmarcus.com also sell his product IIRC.

Yay, just got my SSE in SX-08 (a CP) and tried this on a bare face as undereye concealer. I dare say this is definitely than the CDP concealer stick on me. Great color match and so moisturizing, even on a pair of non-moisturized undereyes.

I was really shocked by its TINY size though, imagine how small can a 1 1/4" x 1 1/8" foundation last??? But I do agree a little runs a long way coz I only used a tiny (around 1/5 of a rice size ) and it covered both my undereye circles already.

But how do you know which colour you are :huh:

Oh, I read reviews in MUA for reference. But actually just a bet

[teiko]

I know my swapper use Stila Angel in C and she use a Kevyn Aucoin SX-05- Does it automatically mean I am a 05 also??? :huh:
