Hope this helps!





The problem tho... is that if it isn't personalized for your needs or your skin type.....what somebody else rates as a best product might be a total dud for you. It really takes small samples of products to test for yourself IMO.....based on your skin tone...type....your age...personal likes & needs. It's like asking a forum who you should date..ha.

I love IPSY...it's all personalized based on your own reviews & samples...& your profile. The more you review...the more personalized it gets.

edit: I have discovered several new favorite products ...what's best for me instead of what's best for a stranger in a forum.

Winner-winner, chicken dinner.
So a lot of sites that "review the skincare products" are simply pushing sales.

Makeup Alley is trying to do their best in this respect, asking people to describe their skin type ( type overall,) while leaving the reviews, but even there it's still a guessing game. You still have to look for a lot of clues to get your answer, until something familiar in those reviews starts ringing a bell as "yea or nay."

I know someone for whom certain line works in fantastic way, for me even thinking about putting it on my face makes me cringe.

Yet this line has it all - products that target "dry skin, dehydrated, oily skin" - you name it.

It's all the same for me - unbearable.

On a friend of mine it looks/feels great though.

So go figure.

Unless you actually try it, the description/ratings don't make much sense, really.

I use LexiNoelBeauty.Com Their skincare is organic and vegan and definitely in my price range. I can't spend a ridiculous amount of money like some of these other brands. I wish!

There are so many organic & vegan makeup products now that get positive reviews....AND a lot of them are priced super well. A good resource is Cruelty Free Kitty AND Cosmo reviews a lot of products for all different skin types....like Pai & Bybi.

Same here.

For anyone over 50, I strongly recommend 3 of my favorite youtubers: Wayne Goss (makeup techniques and product reviews), Angie-HotandFlashy (all things makeup, sunscreen, beauty product reviews) and Dr. Dray- dermatologist (serious info from an expert, product reviews).
