Anyone remember when I posted about Heidi Klum’s “In an Instant” wrinkle eraser …wondering if any of you had tried it? …and you all told ME to try it and tell YOU how it was? Well, I did {which you may know if you follow me on twitter}.
…And let me tell YOU -IT IS AMAZING!
I got the entire “In an Instant” skin care system …but must admit that my absolute favorite product is the Wrinkle Eraser.
Now, I don’t really have huge wrinkles yet but between my eyes {my “furrow”} and my forehead are beginning to “line up” …and at an alarming rate it seems …or maybe I’m just getting too close to the mirror. At any rate, this wrinkle eraser totally does the trick!
After cleansing and moisturizing, before I begin my make up routine, I just twist the applicator, dab a bit on my finger and dot-dot-dot it right over the furrow line and the horizontal crevice running across my forehead. And really, it DOES erase it. It sort of fills in the lines {without any mess or thickness} and when I apply my foundation over it, it’s smooth as can be.
I also love the eye cream before bed and on days where I don’t want to wear a full face of make-up -the days you don’t see me ;)- I use the “In an Instant” Tinted Moisturizer and it blends perfectly with my skin …which you can also use under your make-up.
The Verdict: Get it. It rocks.
Just a little update on the rest of my make-up routine: A couple months ago I switched from Bare Minerals to Jane Iredale foundations and am in love with it. I went into my local beauty store and actually got a few tips from a specialist. She said that unlike the “circle” motion of Bare Minerals application, this application should be more of a “laying it on” technique, then blending. She also gave me the pressed powder instead of the loose which works the exact same way but covers better and is less messy. Since I already had the loose powder, I kind of use both …but the pressed is my favorite.
1. Heidi Klum’s “In An Instant” Skin Care System
2. Jane Iredale Zap&Hide Concealer amazing!
3. Jane Iredale PurePressed Mineral Foundation -Warm Sienna
4. Jane IredaleAmazing Base Loose Mineral Foundation -Warm Silk
5. Jane IredaleAmazing Matte Loose Finish Powder {to set it}
6. Jane Iredale Blending Brush {use w/ loose powders}
7. Jane Iredale Dome Brush {use w/ pressed powder to “lay it on”} This is my favorite
8. Jane Iredale Chisel Powder Brush {use for blush and/or blending loose}
9. Benefit Boxed Powders -Hoola {my favorite blush/bronzer} …lasts forever -but I never use the brush that comes with it. poo
10. Stila eye shadows …I mix all these colors using the Diamond Lil first to create a “creased lid” in my bedroom eyes ..lol -then spread out for base shape. The Purple Batura goes only in the crease …I also use a touch of both of these under-eye. Using Fade, Rouge, and Jezebel …which are all in the same color family in varying degrees including matte and shimmer.
