I know even the ones not really marked as matte actually do kind of look matte on skin
but they will have two new shades that are called dior nude tan matte

I really like the sublimity of the Dior bronzers. I just want a matte one. They are almost always perfectly understated but flattering on my pasty skin tone...
You can't go wrong with Dior. I'm sure the new ones will be great.

Serenityy, I am late to your new beautiful Perfect Topping party. Congrats doll, it is absolutely beautiful! I do hope that you enjoy this friendlier version. Specktra is definitely a great community!!!

I think I'll try adding the argan oil to my nightly skincare routine for a couple of weeks and if I'm still having issues, I'll stop using the retinol cream and try the argan oil alone. Trial and error is a looooooong process in skincare. Looks like I need to make my way over to the skin section of these forums!
I haven't caught up with this thread yet, but I wanted to jump in and suggest using your Clarisonic only in the mornings for a while. You see, it stimulates the circulation at the surface of the skin, but at night, you don't really want to be doing that- you want to be relaxing the skin, not engorging it with more blood if it's already sensitive and prone to redness and breakouts.

I use mine in the morning with an active cleanser (gel) and at night I just use my standard cream cleanser for sensitive skin, applied with just my hands and washed off with cool (not warm) water and that's enough to keep my skin glowing very nicely. I use glycolic pads for night time exfoliation, but I only use those every other night at the most, or if I use them two nights in a row, then I skip a night and use soothing sandalwood oil for sensitivity and redness instead of my standard night moisturizer.

I wasn't going to get Perfect Topping because personally it reminds me of Soft n Gentle but not as a glitter ball and I don't like Soft n Gentle but my cousin has brought that from me now I won't feel as bad getting Perfect Topping :D

[I confess i have skipped many pages of this board, i just can't keep up!]

I cheated on my low-buy and got Fleur d'Coral lipstick. I was disappointed because I need a pinky peach or a peachy pink and on me it is WAY too ORANGE. I was hoping for a basic slap and dash lipstick, but this wasn't it. If i do a light application and blot it's OK, or i put on a pink lipstick and top with FdC, i can wear it.

Sounds like maybe Creme Cup would work for that. I love that one.

Here are my photos that I was supposed to post 2 weeks ago but miserably failed. LOL.



I only purchased Petal Power. Funny because I was so hyped for this collection. Anyways, this blush is absolutely stunning. I'm in love with it. It is going to be beautiful in the summer time, I know I will use this non stop then.





In these 2 photos, I am wearing Petal Power on my face.

Do you mind sharing which glycolic pads you use? The product I have been using no longer contains glycolic--go figure! Am in the market for something new :)
