This is part of my daily regiment. It was originally recommended to me by my dermatologist. I was so excited to see it was sold at my local CVS. I have pretty sensitive skin and slight rosecea. Toleraine is the only cleanser I have used that actually helped decrease my red cheeks. All you need is a drop and it expands into a light foam. My skin feels clean, not dry. I use this in combo with my Vichy Aqualia Thermal Eye Treatment and Arbonne RE 9 serum and daily lotion. Once I finish my Arbonne RE9 set, I will try more of this line.

If you are looking for another cleanser, Toleriane is worth a try. And because it is sold at CVS, you can use ECBs. How cool!

MAC 187 Duo Fibre Brush Review

So I am finally back and think you all deserve a review. Yes, I have been gone for a while, but I have still been trying to keep up with my "groove quest". Here is something I purchased along the way... probably on a day I was feeling a little blah...

MAC's 187 Duo Fibre Brush

(Taken from the MAC website...)

"A large full circular brush used for lightweight application and blending of face powder or pigments. Use to create soft layers or add textures. Made from a soft blend of goat and synthetic fibres. 18 cm US$42.00"

This is how I was instructed to use this brush (as per MAC counter person..)

1. Wash face/ tone etc...

2. Use brush to apply moisturizer in circular motion all over face

3. Use brush to apply foundation in circular motion all over face

4. Use brush to apply powder to set in circular motion all over face

The result is a beautiful and flawless application of color. You look like you've been airbrushed. The beauty of the 187 Duo Fibre Brush is that you can quickly move from moisturizer, to foundation, to powder... you DO NOT need to change or clean your brush until you are done.

I use this brush with my Arbonne regiment... I love it! And I can apply my coverage super quickly, so I have no excuse not to look good! I also use the brush to apply a touch of bronzer (Arbonne) before my powder when I am flooking a little pale.
