Alright, let’s talk about this “Your Skin But Better” stuff from IT Cosmetics. I ain’t no fancy makeup artist or nothin’, just a regular person who wants her face to look a little less like a wrinkled prune, you know?
So, I heard about this foundation, the one they say is water-based. Now, I don’t know much about all that “silicone-based” this and that, sounds like somethin’ you’d use to fix a leaky pipe, not put on your face. But water-based? That makes sense to me. Like, water is good for you, right? You drink it, you wash with it, so maybe it’s good for your skin too.
This IT Cosmetics thing, they call it “Your Skin But Better.” That’s a pretty big claim, ain’t it? Like, my skin ain’t exactly somethin’ to brag about these days. Got spots, got wrinkles, got that whole saggy thing goin’ on. But, hey, I figured I’d give it a shot. What’s the worst that could happen, right? End up lookin’ like a clown? Well, I already look like a tired old woman, so how much worse could it be?
First thing I noticed, it ain’t thick and goopy like some of them other face paints I tried. You know, the kind that makes you feel like you got a mask on? This stuff is kinda light, goes on smooth. And it covers up them red blotches and them age spots pretty good, I gotta say. It don’t make me look like a teenager again, mind you, but it evens things out. Makes me look, well, maybe not “better” exactly, but… less tired, maybe? Like I got a good night’s sleep, even if I was up half the night with the dog barkin’ at squirrels.
What about oily skin?
Now, I got this oily patch on my nose and forehead, drives me crazy. Shiny like a greasy pan. This foundation, it seems to help with that. Don’t make me all dry and flaky, but the shine ain’t so bad anymore. I guess that’s the “water-based” part doin’ its job. I heard it’s good for oily skin and combination skin, whatever that means. All I know is, my face ain’t as slick as it used to be.
Sensitive skin?
My skin, it ain’t always happy. Sometimes it gets all itchy and red, especially if I use the wrong soap or cream. This foundation, though, it didn’t bother me. No itching, no redness, no nothin’. So I guess that means it’s good for sensitive skin too. That’s a relief, cause I don’t need another reason to scratch my face.
Is it really “your skin but better”?
Okay, so here’s the deal. Does it make me look like I got the skin of a twenty-year-old? Nah. But it does make my skin look smoother, more even, and less… old. It covers up the bad stuff without lookin’ cakey or fake. And it feels nice on my skin, not heavy or greasy. So yeah, I guess you could say it’s “my skin but better.” It’s like takin’ your regular ol’ face and just…smoothin’ it out a bit. Like ironin’ a wrinkled shirt, you know?
How long does it last?
I wear this stuff all day, and it pretty much stays put. Doesn’t melt off my face or nothin’. Of course, I ain’t runnin’ no marathons or nothin’, just doin’ my regular stuff. But even after a day of gardenin’ or cookin’, it still looks pretty good. I just wash it off at night with my regular soap, and that’s it.
- So, here’s the bottom line:
- It’s light, not thick and goopy.
- It covers up the bad stuff pretty good.
- It’s good for oily skin, keeps the shine down.
- It’s good for sensitive skin, doesn’t make me itch.
- It lasts pretty much all day.
Is it a miracle in a bottle? Nah. But it’s a good foundation, and it makes my skin look a little better. And sometimes, that’s all a woman needs, you know?
And another thing…
They say this stuff makes your bare skin better in two weeks. I don’t know about that. Maybe it does, maybe it don’t. I ain’t lookin’ at my bare skin that close these days. But hey, if it happens, that’s a bonus, right?
So, if you’re lookin’ for a foundation that’s light, covers up the imperfections, and doesn’t bother your skin, this IT Cosmetics “Your Skin But Better” might be worth a try. It ain’t gonna make you young again, but it might just make you feel a little bit better about your face. And that, in my book, is a good thing.
