I was just wondering how the Balance & Brighten Powder & her concealers are. I love BE, but want a pressed option. I'm debating this or Cliniques Almost Powder. Also, are her Creaseless or Vanishing Concealers nice??

I can't speak to those products specifically, but I have some of her palettes and love them. I just bought the "COlor by Numbers" one at Sephora and find the quality to be high. I have used Eye Spackle as an es base and realyl like it. I don't find the lip spackle particularly useful.

I haven't tried the concealers but for Christmas I did get a set that had a shadow, mascara, blush, ethereal rose powder, spackle and the balance and brighten.

The balance and brighten was nice and honestly I would've kept it but that was before she offered it in fair (which obviously wouldn't have been an option for me since I got a set anyway) so unless I really wanted to work with it the color was too dark for me. I wound up giving it away (along with spackle but that was due to me having other primers) but I'd be willing to try it in fair because it was a good product. IIRC Christine tried it but found that it turned orange on her.

I know you didn't ask but I do love the ethereal rose powder and the blush and brightens. I got roseberry in the set and loved it so much I bought sunswept, golden apricot and pink grapefruit. I want to buy Berry and the new Honey Dipped one too. The blushes are very pigmented and long lasting.

I use the Balance n Brighten and love it! It's so handy because I travel a lot (I visit my boyfriend or go see friends), so I love having something I can tote. The coverage is fairly good, just enough to even out my skintone without it looking like a mask. It's pricey so I'm not quite sure I'd buy again (I might try and find a cheaper alternative), but I am really happy with how it looks. I got the original shade and it worked when I was only slightly tan as well as very tan.

Thanks ladies! I will check this out on my lunch break today :) Of course now I'll HAVE to look @ the blushes too ;)

OK so I picked up the Balance & Brighten & it maybe a tad pink, but the Sephora SA said it adjusts to different skintones, so we shall see! I also got the Vanishing Concealer - its a duo so you mix the colors. Trying it out today!

Let me know how you like it! I find that mine isn't pink at all but in the container it didn't look very skin-toned...good luck!
