Products received in box: JapanFusion Pure Transforming Cleanser, Super Healthy Skin Daily Moisture Lotion, JapanFusion Hydra Prep Lotion, Super Stem Cell Moisture Shot Serum JapanFusion Pure Transforming Cleanser I love this cleanser.  To me this is better than Liz Earle C&P, which I think has changed formulation.  This cleanser is a great first cleanse or second cleanse.  It removes makeup without much effort.  I have used it to remove Benefit Mascaras and IT Cosmetics Superhero.  I like that I apply it to dry skin and depending on how I feel I can either add water and emulsify it or take it off with a damp muslin cloth.  My skin feels hydrated and soft after using it and it doesn’t irritate my eyes. JapanFusion Hydra Prep Lotion This is the perfect lotion to follow with after cleansing my face.  If you don’t like fragrance you may not like this as there is a slight fragrance to it, but it does disappear within se...

Packaging and pencil of IT Cosmetics No-Tug Eyeliner in Brown  Who for: Anyone who wants an eyeliner that does not sit in the lines on their eyelids First impressions: Looks and behaves like any other eyeliner After one week: Applies nicely without having to pull my eyelid tight After one month:  Lasts all day Stockists: IT Cosmetics, QVCUK, Boots, Selfridges  I had seen this on their QVC UK shows and wanted to try it as eyeliner is part of my every day look, I don’t wear eyeshadow unless I am going out out.  I ordered it from their UK website and picked the shade Brown as most of my eyeliners that I wear on a daily basis are black.  It is a lovely formulation that is long wearing both outlining the eye and in the water line.  I had even used it to tight line my eye.  It looked fantastic when I did it.  But unfortunately I have had to stop using it as I have been diagnosed with Dry Eye and MGD, my hubby would always say my eyes looked...

Packaging and tube of IT Cosmetics CC+ Oil Free Matte Who for: Anyone with an oily skin or who wants a matte finish to their face First impressions: Was worried that it would be drying on my skin After one week: Love the matte finish After one month: Prefer this to the original formulation Stockists: IT Cosmetics, QVC UK, Boots, Selfridges I ordered this from their UK website as this was the only place that I could get the shade Fair/Light at the time.  I had previously tried the Illuminating and Original formulations in the Light and had found that they were a little too dark for me, I am not sure if they had oxidised on my skin.  This has the same lemony smell as the other formulations when you first apply it to the skin but goes after awhile.  Just like the other formulations I wear one pump all over my face if I want a natural, I just woke up looking like this, or two pumps if I want a more polished finish to my foundation.  It blends bri...

Mini tube of IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Who for:  Anyone who wants to cover problem areas and for that coverage to last all day. First impressions: Very thick not sure it will blend into the skin easily  After one week:  A small amount goes a very long way After one month: Blends into the skin and is not obvious that you are wearing concealer  Stockists: IT Cosmetics UK website, QVCUK, Boots, Selfridges This was part of the free gifts that I received when I placed an order on their website.  It is a small tube but you only need the very smallest amount to cover both under eye areas.  If you are only using it as an under eye concealer then choose a shade lighter than your normal foundation shade.  If you want to cover spots and redness then I would recommend ordering a shade similar to your foundation shade.  In other words order two, one for use under your eyes and the other for spots and redness.  Be careful how ...
