This has been a very strange day. (Friday, I mean.) So this is going to be short & sweet. Hope you have a wonderful weekend, and hope you have a chance to take a look at the BST Weekly Roundup!
Erno Laszlo Normalizer Shake-It, which is a cult classic for good reason, is a tinted-toner that is perfect for the no-makeup makeup look. Lola’s Secret Beauty Blog thinks it is a perfect choice for the warm weather– especially if you have balanced to combination skin.
Never Say Die Beauty has been ushering in spring with light as a cloud, foaming, ultra hydrating Derma E Ultra Hydrating Alkaline Cloud Cleanser. Find out why it’s such a hit with her.
Spring cleaning? What about your a clean up with your cosmetics? Prime Beauty thinks the Poke-A-Dot Organizer is just the thing. Plus it will make a Mother’s Day gift that will be adored.

I adore Erno Laszlo skincare, so maybe this toner would be a good fit for me, though I am pretty madly in love with the Kosas Tinted Face Oil I’ve been using.
Hmmmm, was this the tinted toner that Lola described as somewhat drying? I thought it sounded so innovative, but I am pretty sure that it would be too drying for my skin. And I wondered if I had to wear moisturizer on top of it, would the tint fade or disappear? It definitely sounds like a cool product, but I think the Kosas Tinted Face Oil may suit you better. Lola describes herself as having combination skin.
True, though in summer my skin is more to the normal side. I do love the Kosas. It’s absolute perfection. Seriously. I’m ready to forgive Ipsy for everything just because they introduced me to it.
I am going to go to the Kosas website and take a look. Does it provide any coverage, like over a dark spot? I’m so glad that Ipsy came through for you. Did you get the Kosas in the Ipsy X box or in the regular Plus bag? Speaking of Ipsy, something got screwed up for April with my account. I never got the email telling me to choose my products, so I got worried and went to the website on April 3, but I got a weird message that made it sound like I needed to wait before choosing. Still no word, so I went back early last week, and it said my bag was being prepared to ship. I contacted support and they were useless. Boo. I hope they picked well this month for me.
It does provide some coverage, possibly not enough to cover a dark spot, but it might, depending on how dark. Oh no! I am so sorry Ipsy screwed up so badly for you!!!! They better give you nice stuff! If they don’t, let me at ’em!!!
LOL!! And thank you. Which shade did you choose? It’s odd that Tone 01 is Light with cool undertones and it looks lighter than Tone 03 Fair with cool undertones. I wish I were Rouge for the Sephora sale coz 15% just doesn’t seem like enough these days.
Ipsy chose tone 1 for me and it’s perfection! I haven’t bought anything at Sephora in over two years.
That’s awesome! I just noticed that the shade descriptions are different on the Kosas website and on Sephora. Tone 1 looks like Porcelain to me, and it looks beautiful but I think too light for me. I have to go to Sephora to get my bday gift and I will see if they will give me a sample. I haven’t been in the Sephora near me in about 18 months, so I don’t even know if they carry Kosas in the store, but I guess I’ll find out!
