[drugsNmakeup]

FYI ladies I had a survey on skin care today (so go check your surveys!). It just asked me what shade I would choose for moisturizers or something. I choose light/medium and that was the only question lol. Any idea what the campaign is?

Possibly a tinted moisturizer?

I hope that is what its for. I've been looking into them but just can't commit.

I just completed that survey too. I put deep...which is usually true...but I have the Almay Smartshade Mousse in Medium/Deep, and for a black person, my skin really isn't that dark...

Might be for a BB Cream?

Got the survey, thanks for the heads up!  I'm super-pale, so I wish they had lighter than light-medium, but oh well!

I got my Olia coupon in the mail yesterday and picked up the Medium Blonde.  I like this stuff!  Seriously!  At first Im thinking "this is nothing special".  Sure the smell was great but that was about it.  Well, then I washed it out and blow-dried my hair.  I was truly impressed with the color.  Usually I hate my hair for the first week because my roots and the rest of my hair dont match.  My hair looks like it came from a box.  This stuff really impressed me (which is hard to do).  I'll definitely repurchase this.

Yay my Neutrogena campaign shipped today!  I am so excited to get my hands on them!  Can't wait to see em in person!  I have been checking them out at Target.

Took the survey too!  Hope it is a good campaign looming on the horizon!

I'd love if it was a bb cream, although right now I'm LOVING rimmel's bb cream. It's inexpensive but surprisingly so good.

I would love a BB cream too, especially if they actually have one that's dark enough! (BB creams in general are not African American skin tone friendly)...I don 't even have particularly dark skin, and in the Maybelline stuff, I use "deep" which is the darkest shade available...

that's not cool. Hopefully if it is BB cream there will be shades that are great for women of color

No, it's definitely not. When I went to get a BB cream, I went to Target, and I had exactly 2 choices: Maybelline and L'Oreal. Nothing else came in anything past a "medium" which is still insanely light for a person of color. Even my biracial sister with very light skin for an African American would probably need something darker than that!

I understand completely its definitely harder trying to find the right shade and even if they offer it

It's gotten a lot easier to find makeup fit for darker skin tones though. When I first started wearing makeup, in middle school, I could only buy it at K-Mart, and I could only get Covergirl products. I know that partly has to do with where I live, but that just gives you an idea of what was available. And that wasn't too too long ago as I'm only 22...and now, for the first time ever, Almay has a shade darker than "medium". They have never had that before!
