Review: Purely Cosmetics
admin | Jun 18, 2010 | Comments 25
Can I just say, WOW. I have not been this impressed by anything since… UDPP launched. The 3 products I have been testing from Purely the past 3-4 weeks just really knocked my socks off. If you have oily skin like I do, then this is definitely something worth looking into. I went a little “Alton Brown” on this video, so if you don’t care about the Why and the Science of Why I love the products and Why its different from others in the market, then this Video will probably seem lenghty for you. Other than that… EnJoy!!! Products reviewed: Oil Absorb Silk & Pearl Primer Diamond Perfect Finish www.PurelyCosmetics.com

saucy looking video!
did you know you can get wonderful makeup from Maybelline to test B4 you buy over at Gratis Makeup Samples
Have you tried the Oil Absorb? Put that on first, and only around your nose area, then follow with the primer on top and see if that helps.
What if I use the Pearl & Silk powder as a veil right before I put my blush on and that’s all? I don’t have any scars or acne (just large pores) so I don’t use foundation.
i brought the silk primer for oily skin and when i put it on during the day i still see my face getting oily around my nose. i dont know what to do ive tried to put more on my nose like i pile it on and it only helps a little. wat do you think i can do because over all it works pretty good
@haveHEARTT
no because this vid was made way before december 31st so he doesnt hafta have 1
OMG….I found my holy grave mineral foundation….I brought the sample size….and totally love it… love it….I would work 10 hours a day….and I didn’t have to do touch up doing the day…I have combination skin…and it does really absorbs the oil on my face….I’m buying the full size later….Thanks for the wonderful review…..
Koren I can’t resist buying anything you recommend. I am sending you my credit card bill!!:))
I have a silk primer from Aromaleigh and never thought to use it before my foundation. Thanks Koren!
@haveHEARTT btw: The FTC disclosure began in December 09. This video was uploaded in September 09.
@AnastasiaTalen
ah, thanks for clearing that up.
US Bloggers/etc are only legally obliged to disclose if they’re given a product to review for free. Presumeably if he doesn’t say it’s free, that means he paid for it.
there’s no FTC disclosure here.. does this mean you were paid to make this video?
:S
I ordered mine online. Sorry if my wording was misleading.
@vibingv Where can you buy purely cosmetics other than online? Departmental stores in US?
Just a stupid little thing *rofl* the Thumpnail from that Video is sooooo CUTE *gg* … Produkt looks nicely … for the Job it does the Price is ok *Ithink* maybe I´m gooing to try that when I run out of the One im using curently …
Thanks so much for this review! I recently picked up some sample sizes from Purely Cosmetics based on your recommendation and I love them!! The Oil Absorb is works really great for me, so happy you brought it to our attention.
ОМГ Пидорг!
thanks! appreciate the help!
Catchblonde – if I were you, I’d wear it beneath the cream primer, and yes, beneath the liquid foundation. You may find with it (used in conjunction with the Silk & Pearl Powder Primer) that you don’t need a cream primer. Less to clog those pores!
The brush that Koren is using in the vid (if it’s the one I think it is) is a synthetic flat top foundation brush. Personally, I prefer natural hair ones, as I feel the trap and release powder better, but it’s all personal preference. HTH. Robyn
is the oil absorb something you could layer between a cream type primer and liquid foundation? i have big pores and acne scars so i need a lot of coverage and my skin is still super oily… or would this powder primer be something that could go under liquid foundation. and that “buffer” brush looks synthetic? is it just a flat top kabuki type or??? anyone with any input of these matters i would really appreciate
It definitely does, thank you jjjjjackie. :]
i actually bought all 4 in full size: the primer, oil absorb, foundation and diamond perfect.
initially when i purchased the sample sizes it looked flawless on my skin with all 4 layers.
But since I purchased it in full size it looked powdery when I used all 4. I don’t know if it’s bcuz the jar is bigger & that i’m picking up more product..but now i use it w/o oil absorb in my regime, it makes my skin too dry.. only use for touch up for the shine. I have super oily skin..hope this help
I am a religious liquid foundation lover. But i decided to let my skin breathe and purchased this stuff (mineral makeup). I find the Diamond perfect finish wayyy better than the MUFE HD powder. I love the MUFE powder but it sinks into my pores like crazy. The diamond powder doesnt for some reason.
Btw I also have super oily skin and break out occasionally.
You need to die in a hole….along with your make-up.
loooks good what about shades 4 black people,canwe wear it?
