It’s time for IT Cosmetics’ New Year, New Confidence in Your Skin! 5-Piece Collection on QVC! This great deal is only good for one day, Saturday, January 13, 2018. You can purchase the collection here for $79.96. The value of this collection is $200!
This exclusive five-piece collection features two of the IT Girl skincare favorites, one complexion must-have paired perfectly with a brush, and one new game-changing skincare innovation that delivers life-changing results! While new Confidence in an Eye Cream instantly color corrects and brightens the look of your entire eye area, Confidence in a Cream deeply hydrates and improves the appearance of your skin. Also featured is Confidence in a Compact, IT’s first-ever solid serum foundation. Apply it effortlessly with the included Heavenly Skin Skin-Smoothing Complexion Brush for your most flawless, airbrushed application. Confidence in a Cleanser completes your collection and gently melts away dirt, oil and even long-wear eye makeup!
I love IT Cosmetics, it’s one of my favorite brands! I’ve tried a lot of their products, but mostly makeup. It’s fun to try their effective skincare, especially if you’re a bit older like myself!
I received a sample of the collection for my honest review. This is how it came packaged:
The products are packaged so well in the box. They are nestled in a protective plastic insert inside the box. So everything’s perfect once you receive it.
The products come in their own boxes, so if you want to give one or two of the products away, they are packaged and ready to go!
I have tried all of these products except for the eye cream before. The cleanser is a gentle way to remove all my makeup. I love how Confidence in a Cream is soothing as well as hydrating, perfect for sensitive skin! The eye cream is so moisturizing, it makes my tired eyes look plumper and brighter.
I love all IT brushes and this one is no exception. I think it works well for wet or dry foundation.
The only product that I don’t really care for is the Confidence in a Compact. I think it’s one of the only products that doesn’t work for me. The shade is too warm for my skin tone and it’s a bit heavy feeling for me. I know that lots of people love how it covers, though, so if you haven’t used it yet, it is the only cosmetics product in this set and might be fun to try.
I suggest picking this up as soon as possible to ensure that you get the shade you want in the foundation!

I’ve been looking back at my favorite and most used beauty products — new discoveries. I have noticed that all above are makeup and not skincare. This is curious, since I am a 40-something blogger who loves trying anti-aging products. I guess I didn’t really find anything amazing in skin care last year. This year I’m going to focus more on finding and using (I get lazy) anti-aging skin care, plus using up the ones I have. Tomorrow will be the start of my first Project Pan, skin care exclusive!
But today, I am reflecting on the gorgeous makeup above, some I use every day:
Ofra Beverly Hills Highlighter ($40 USD) — I was sent a bunch of amazing Ofra products for review in August (see review here). I love a lot of it, but this is the product that I use most often. I love that there are 5 shades, I can blend them together or use one or two on their own. The two largest pans, a soft gold and rose gold are my favorites and I love using them together. This is the product that really got me interested in highlighters and I use it more because it this one!
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealing Pot ($28 USD) — I received this and the foundation for review (here). I use both products almost every day. I love this because it is so creamy. I use it under my eye, but also all over the face. It’s great for covering redness. I’ve recently bought a new concealer with a drier texture for under my eye (so it will stay put), but I will continue to use this to cover rednes.
LORAC Pirates of The Caribbean Mod Lip Cream Duo ($26, on sale for $13) — I received a bunch of these this year. Although I announced it on my blog here, I only reviewed the eye shadow palette. On one end is a creamy lipstick and the other end is a natural looking lip gloss, not too shiny or sticky. These are gorgeous alone or layered. The shade in the photo is Risk it All.
LORAC Disney Beauty and The Beast Cheek Palette ($28 USD) — I love this whole collection. I use the eye shadow and the lip glosses a lot. This has four gorgeous colors that can be used separately or blended together. There are also mattes and shimmers for a variety of looks. So pretty!
Huda Beauty Mauve Obsessions Eyeshadow Palette ($27 USD) — I purchased this on Black Friday because I had been wanting to try it since it came out. It’s tiny, but the pan sizes are nice, they take up the whole palette, no unused space. They shades are so pretty and I can make a few different looks with them. This is one I can take with my on trips because it’s so portable. You can see my review here.
COVER FXIlluminating Setting Spray ($31 USD) – I received this in my November BoxyCharm. I have really just started using setting sprays this year and was really excited to try this one. It has been working so well for me in the cold weather. My skin has been dry and a bit dull. This spray gives my skin hydration and nice dewy skin. It’s not greasy on me at all, but I will probably use a matte spray in hot weather. Plus, it keeps my makeup fresh all day!
BENEFIT COSMETICS Roller Lash Curling & Lifting Mascara ($24 USD) — I purchased this during Ulta Beauty’s 21 days of Beauty event this fall. It is now one of my favorite all time mascaras! It grabs all of my lashes, lengthens and curls them. I have tiny lashes, and this makes them look long and lush! I just had to toss it because it’s been 3 months, and I’m so sad! But, I’m sure I’ll purchase it again.
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines Foundation ($38 USD) — This is a serum foundation. It’s really light and I’d say a medium coverage. I am looking for a heavier coverage for the new year, but this has been a nice foundation. It blends really well and looks so natural. Plus, I love that it’s good for my skin.
Tomorrow, hopefully, I will post my first ever Project Pan. It will be for the skincare I want to use up in the next three months. Wish me luck!
Today only, IT Cosmetics™ IT’s Your Top 5 Superstars and More! 6-Piece Collection is QVC’s Today’s Special Value for November 11th. These products give you the power to experience innovative, problem-solving products that give you life-changing results for beautiful-looking skin, lashes, brows and lips!

While the best-selling, QVC® Customer Choice® award-winning CC+ Cream with SPF 50+ is the one step for color-correcting full coverage and anti-aging skincare, Bye Bye Pores Illumination is a revolutionary translucent finishing powder for airbrushed-looking skin and a lit-from-within glow. Also included is Brow Power Universal Brow Pencil to create your most beautiful, natural-looking brows, Superhero Elastic Stretch Volumizing Mascara to transform the look of lashes with super length and super volume, and Je Ne Sais Quoi Hydrating Color Awakening Lip Treatment to smooth the look of the lips and give them a rosy flush of color.

0.11-oz Je Ne Sais Quoi Hydrating Color Awakening Lip Treatment in Rose
0.30-fl oz Superhero Elastic Stretch Volumizing Mascara
Heavenly Luxe Complexion Perfection Foundation Globe Brush
These are some of my favorite IT Cosmetics products! The CC+ Cream is an amazing foundation. It looks natural on, but covers really well. The Bye Bye Pores Illumination is a gorgeous finishing powder. Plus the Superhero mascara is one of my very favorite mascaras. It stretches my tiny lashes and makes them long and full! The Brow Power is amazing, because with just a change in pressure, you can alter the color for the perfect brows, And I love the lip treatment. It gives a bit of color and really hydrates the lips. And that beautiful brush applies the products perfectly!
Are you going to pick up this set? Have you tried any of these products before?
I have more amazing new IT Cosmetics products to review. I was sent some amazing items to try for my honest review. I have been using the following for a few weeks, and are loving most of them!
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines Foundation ($38 USD) –Perfect for all skin types, this advanced foundation is infused with anti-aging peptides, caviar extract, hydrolyzed collagen, hyaluronic acid, argan oil and babassu oil, plus vitamins A, C, E, B1, B2, B3, B5, B7, B9 and CoQ10—and features proprietary Drops of Light Optical Blurring Technology for an airbrushed, lit-from-within glow. Finally, you can experience luminous, sheer-to-medium coverage that makes your skin look younger, not older!
What I think: I have this in Light, and it’s now my go to daily foundation. It’s wonderful on aging skin (and I’m sure on younger, too), because it very light, almost serum like. It doesn’t settle into pores or lines.On my skin it gives a medium coverage that really look natural on. It just looks like my skin is smooth and glowing! It doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin and I feel it’s actually helping it with the amazing ingredients. I highly recommend this foundation for great coverage that makes you look younger!
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealing Pot
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealing Pot ($28 USD) — starts its life as a skin-smoothing, line-minimizing cream and is infused with the same award-winning full-coverage pigments as your best-selling Bye Bye Under Eye Anti-Aging Concealer to cover everything without creasing or cracking. With anti-aging hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, caffeine and green coffee extract, it’s truly your skin-loving essential for super smooth, super creamy and super weightless full-coverage that lasts!
What I think: I have this in light, and it is pretty light almost a fair shade, which I like for the undereye area. The photo of this makes it look really creamy, but the product is actually solid in the pot. I have to kind of dig my finger into it and let the product warm up before I use it. It has a lot of slip to it, which is okay under they eye, but I wouldn’t use it as all over foundation. I usually dab powder over it to set it. And a good thing about this is that it has such amazing ingredients that I don’t need a separate eye cream in the morning.
IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Airbrush Perfecting Powder Illumination with SPF 50+
IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Airbrush Perfecting Powder Illumination with SPF 50+ ($35 USD) — is your original, best-selling CC+ Airbrush Perfecting Powder—infused with micronized pigments of light for a lit-from-within finish without glitter or shimmer! In addition to delivering subtle radiance, this game-changing powder combines buildable optical-blurring coverage, proprietary Drops of Light Technology and SPF 50+ physical sunscreen to camouflage the look of imperfections and deliver powerful sun protection. Plus, it’s completely talc-free, so it won’t settle into lines or pores and doesn’t crease, cake or crack.
What I think: This powder can be used in two ways; to set foundation or as a light foundation by itself. It comes in 7 shades so there’s lot to choose from. I am using Light, and it’s a pretty good match to my skin. It’s a very hydrating powder, it doesn’t feel dry on the skin. It also imparts a very subtle glow. That is one thing a lot of IT Cosmetics products have in common, they give a really lovely glow to the skin!
IT Cosmetics Perfect Lighting Radiant Touch Magic Wand
IT Cosmetics Perfect Lighting Radiant Touch Magic Wand ($29 USD) — instantly corrects, conceals and brightens the look of your skin with just one touch! This innovative concealer and correcting brightener utilizes Drops of Light Technology and hydrolyzed pearl to add subtle radiance without glitter or shimmer, and brings your best features forward while neutralizing, correcting and blurring the appearance of skin imperfections. Infused with anti-aging peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, hyaluronic acid, licorice root and green tea, this skin-loving product is a must-have for every IT Girl’s makeup bag—and your magic wand for the look of light of lift!
What I think: I have to admit, I’m still trying to figure this product out. I first thought it was a highlighter, and it is, but it also conceals. It’s creamy and blends very well. And the glow it gives is very subtle, but so pretty. I use it in Radiant Light, which has a pinkish tint.
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Blush in Sweet Cheeks
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Blush in Sweet Cheeks ($24 USD) Discover all the benefits of your best-selling, award-winning Bye Bye Pores finishing powder—in a blush! Infused with optical-blurring pigments , this delivers sheer, buildable color that instantly diffuses the look of pores and imperfections. Talc-free and perfect for all skin types, it’s also infused with anti-aging, skin-loving ingredients including silk, hydrolyzed collagen, antioxidants and peptides, and delivers a youthful pop of color that awakens your entire complexion!
What I think: I am so in love with the blush! When I first opened the Sweet Cheeks compact, I thought, beautiful, but will this be glittery on? NO! It imparts a gorgeous iridescent glow. It’s a pinky-coral with gold shimmer and it so flattering. It can be built up for deeper skin tones. It also helps my cheeks look smooth and young. LOVE! My current favorite blush.
All in all, I’m loving the new IT Cosmetics Products!
Have you tried any of these new products? What do you think?
I am so excited that it’s almost Fall! It’s still fairly warm in Kansas City, so I’m really looking forward to cooler weather to go out and have some fun!
This week I have been loving some much needed waterproof makeup, new liner and brow makeup and hydration products for when you are dehydrated (in the heat or after being ill):
Cargo Swimmables Water Resistant Bronzer: ($29 USD) Achieve an instant radiant glow with this silky powder that’s not only sweat-proof and weatherproof, but also gives your skin a natural looking-color without the dreaded orange tone. This bronzer is customizable due to its buildability and doesn’t streak or fade, leaving a bronzed look from day to night!
Cargo Swimmables Water Resistant Blush: ($26 USD) The perfect complement to Swimmables Bronzer, this sweat-proof, waterproof and weatherproof blush allows your cheeks to stay colorful without streaks or fading, no matter the occasion.
Cargo Swimmables Waterproof Mascara Top Coat: ($22 USD) Finish off your waterproof makeup look and transform any mascara you own into a tear-proof, waterproof, and sweat-proof formula. This invisible top coat transforms your lashes without affecting the performance of your favorite non-waterproof mascara!
What I think: I’m always pretty warm, and even more so in the summer. Waterproof beauty products are a must for me! I have of course tried waterproof mascara, but not bronzer, blush or a waterproof mascara top coat before.
The blush and bronzer are so pretty on. The bronzer is matte, which I love, so I can also use it for light contouring. The blush in Ibiza is bright and fresh. It looks really pretty on my light skin, but can be built up for darker skin tones. And the mascara coat really works! My mascara stays in place all day.
IT Coametics Superhero Liner ($24 USD) — gives your eyes SUPERHERO powers and instant definition in one simple stroke. Whether you want to create thin, thick or cat-eye strokes, this innovative liner pen makes it easier than ever—and features a unique IT Cosmetics Heavenly Skin brush hair tip that literally does the work for you! Unlike typical felt-tip liners, this luxurious brush hair tip won’t fray and applies your liner with effortless precision.
IT Cosmetics Brow Power Powder ($24 USD) — is your breakthrough brow powder that is clinically tested to be waterproof—and is so easy to use, it does your brows for you! Developed with plastic surgeons, this groundbreaking product creates the look of real hair, and adds the look of soft volume and definition without ever appearing flat or drawn on. Perfect for both thin and thick brows, your brow innovation also features award-winning Brow PowerTechnology and transforms to all hair colors based on pressure.
IT Cosmetics Brow Powder Pomade ($24 USD) your 4-in-1 perfecting and defining budge-proof brow gel, brow-building and lifting mousse, brow-sculpting pomade and brow-taming brush applicator—all in one easy-to-use wand! Clinically tested to be 24-hour waterproof, this breakthrough product holds brows in place without flaking or hardening, and is infused with brow-loving biotin, saw palmetto, argan and jojoba oils. Plus, the universal clear shade is perfect for every brow tone and type, from sparse to super full!
What I think: The liner is amazing, so easy to use. And it’s a shiny black, which is really cool! My daughter wore it to homecoming last night and it lasted until she came home at 1:30 a.m.! LOL! (They went to IHOP afterwards).
The brow powder is a little too light for me, but it they make it in a darker shade, I’ll have to get it. It looks so natural on! The pomade set really nicely on my brows. Since I do have such dark brows, I don’t wear much brow makeup, but I like this. I tames them and keeps them in place for hours.
Hydralyte is an oral rehydration solutions that combats the effects from dehydration, as water may not always be enough. With up to 75% less sugar and 4X the electrolytes compared to other leading sports drinks, Hydralyte was formulated in accordance with the World Health Organization guidelines for oral rehydration, making all Hydralyte products contain the correct balance of glucose and electrolytes required for rapid rehydration whether your hiking, swimming, running, or enduring a rundown. Hydralyte is also great for kids heading back to school whether they are an athlete, in the marching band, taking P.E. this semester, recovering from the “back to school bug” (cold/flu season) or have to run from class to class to make it before the bell rings.
What I think. I tried the single serve bottles and the tablets. They taste good, but definitely tasted like electrolyte drinks. The flavors are Orange and Berry for the tablets and Orange, Berry and Lemonade in the liquids. I think I like lemonade the best.
Both of these products are so handy to have on hand. The tablets are great for family trips and outings. They are also really easy to store.
These can be purchased at Amazon.com
What products are you loving this week? Leave a comment and let me know.
I’ve recently received amazing new Fall products from IT Cosmetics for my honest review. And that was so exciting! I’m going to break the review up over a couple of posts (and will include a couple in my favorites this week!)
The following products really help with complexion issues. They include an amazing new cleanser, products to help with redness (yes, please!) and products to cover and help clear acne:
IT Cosmetics Confidence in a CleanserIT Cosmetics Confidence in a Cleanser ($28 USD) — is your skin-loving cleanser and serum in one game-changing product! This breakthrough one-step skincare solution gently cleanses and moisturizes while leaving your skin feeling soft, refreshed and perfectly balanced.
What I think: This is a gentle cleanser that is safe for sensitive skin and it is ophthalmologist-tested which is perfect for my eyes, that react to everything! It removes all of my makeup and leaves skin really soft and smooth. I also love this before makeup in the morning. I don’t need much hydration after this, so I don’t have to wear layers of skincare before my makeup.
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Redness Correcting CreamIT Cosmetics Bye Bye Redness Correcting Cream ($32 USD) — is your color-infused skincare that starts its life as a hydrating, skin-calming cream and cancels redness from view—all while delivering long-wearing, color-correcting full coverage. Rich in anti-aging peptides, colloidal oatmeal, hydrolyzed collagen, aloe and avocado, it helps camouflage any red-toned skin discolorations including rosacea, broken capillaries, blemishes, skin irritations, sun damage, scars, age spots and more.
What I think: This is such an interesting product. It is a moisturizer, concealer and foundation in one. I love this in the morning. I use it alone on my skin in the morning on casual days, and I might use a little concealer, foundation and/or powder on days I want more coverage. I like that it also calms my skin!
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Redness PowderIT Cosmetics Bye Bye Redness Powder ($38 USD) — this talc-free powder is ideal for even the most sensitive skin and delivers buildable, tone-correcting full coverage that won’t settle into lines or pores—and instantly reduces the look of redness, rosacea, discoloration and any imperfections. Infused with anti-aging colloidal oatmeal, aloe, cucumber, chamomile, avocado, chrysin, turmeric, collagen and peptides, it’s truly your skin-soothing essential for airbrushing away the look of redness!
What I think: This is a perfect companion to the correcting cream above. It covers and gives nice bit of color too. It’s available in three shades (so is the cream above). They are fair to medium shades. The middle shade, Transforming Light Beige works really well on my skin tone. The finish of this powder is in between a satin and matte. It’s definitely not drying. Really nice!
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Redness MoisturizerIT Cosmetics Bye Bye Redness Moisturizer ($48 USD) — helps neutralize and soothe the look of redness while providing deep hydration, and is gentle enough for even the most sensitive and dry skin. Perfect for a.m. and p.m., your redness-relieving moisturizer also smooths the look of lines and wrinkles, and is infused with anti-aging, skin-soothing colloidal oatmeal, aloe, cucumber, chamomile extract, avocado, chrysin, turmeric, collagen and peptides. You’ll see powerful results instantly and more transformative results over time!
What I think: I haven’t used a green moisturizer before, it’s really different. I think this is my least favorite product of the bunch, because I have lots of anti-aging moisturizers, and redness-reducing makeup that I don’t really need a cream that does both. But it does work. I think it’s best for the morning, when I need my redness reduced. It has some good natural ingredients in it that does help calm my skin.
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Breakout ConcealerIT Cosmetics Bye Bye Breakout Concealer ($28 USD) — is specially created to be your revolutionary drying lotion and concealer in one, and gives you the power to say “bye bye” to the look of blemishes—and hello to the appearance of your most flawless, blemish-free complexion! Developed with plastic surgeons and perfect for oily and acne-prone skin, this color-infused skincare innovation contains full-coverage pigments to effectively conceal the look of blemishes, acne, redness and discoloration without creasing or cracking.
What I think: I really don’t get blemishes anymore, so I gave this to my daughter. There is an amazing range of shades of this, 7, from fair to deep. I gave my daughter fair and light to mix how she needs. She likes the coverage an the fact that is helps dry out the acne. Great product for those who are self conscious about breakouts, but don’t want to make it worse while covering it.
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Breakout PowderIT Cosmetics Bye Bye Breakout Powder ($28 USD) — this skin-perfecting innovation reduces shine while helping to diffuse the appearance of blemishes, fine lines and wrinkles. Infused with anti-aging peptides and hydrolyzed collagen, plus oil-absorbing zinc oxide, kaolin clay, witch hazel, colloidal oatmeal, tea tree, sulfur and a gentle AHA/BHA complex, Bye Bye Breakout Powder™ goes on completely sheer and delivers a buildable, flawless finish for all skin tones—perfect alone or over your Bye Bye Breakout™ Concealer!
What I think: A great product for those with oily and acne prone skin. I love the healing ingredients and the face that it comes in Translucent (my fave powder shade), plus Light/Medium and Tan, which just about covers everyone.
I love IT Cosmetics and was so happy to try these!
