A few weeks ago, I reviewed a number of products from the Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Makeup line. This new line of cosmetics inspired by Carmindy of the show What Not to Wear, and author of the book The Five Minute Face, impressed me so much that I went back for more! I am pleased to say that Sally Hansen Natural Beauty foundation, concealer, and translucent powder all were of excellent quality.
Sally Hansen Your Skin Makeup 
is a silky smooth foundation with medium coverage. This makeup simply looks great. From the packaging in a glass bottle, to the smooth and blendable texture, it seems much more expensive than it is. I did find that it takes a minute though to blend in and settle, and I like it best when used in conjunction with a primer (this is true of most foundations for me though). Apply it and let it rest for a minute, and then apply your powder. The effect is quite nice. For fair skinned women, the lightest shade is very light– something I also appreciated. I would like to see a few more shades come out in this though.
Fast Fix Concealer 
is a nice creamy concealer, packaged how I like it–in a pot. The pot allows for good access to apply it with either fingers or your own brush. It is light and blends well, yet provide surprisingly good coverage for its light texture.
Finally, the Natural Beauty
Truly Translucent Loose Powder is a nice translucent powder for setting the makeup. The powder itself is lovely, and like just about everything in this line, it seems more expensive than it is, but I do have a gripe with the packaging. This one comes with a powder sponge in the cap that blocks most of the space for the powder to be shaken into the top of the container. The result is that it is harder to use your own brush with this one, not at least without risking a bit of a mess, and I don’t care for the sponge.
I also tried out the Sally Hansen
Natural Shine Lipgloss , which is wonderful stuff. For more on that see my
review at Girl Gloss!The Sally Hansen Natural Beauty line remains impressive. You can find it at various drugstores and at
ULTA Beauty.

I have been a huge fan of Carmindy decided to buy the foundation, primer, and loose neutralizing powder. I could not be more happy with my purchases!! Now let me first say, I have never really been one to buy my makeup at the drugstore. Maybe a few lip glosses here and there, but definitely not foundation or primer. But I just HAD to try the Sally Hansen Natural Beauty inspired by Carmindy! I have never seen my skin look so beautiful and feel like I had no makeup on at all until wearing her line!! I got several compliments on my skin and my makeup since wearing it. And what I love most about it is the loose powder and the container it comes in. My job requires me to wear all black and I hated how every morning I would put on foundation and then my loose powder to set it and it would be so messy-BUT NOT WITH THE CARMINDY LOOSE POWDER! It comes in a great dispenser so the top is actually just a sponge/puff and it stays on the puff-not on your clothes! There is no mess, no fuss, and perfect application. I am so thrilled with what I bought I can’t wait to buy the other products in the line!! YOU HAVE TO TRY IT! FIVE STARS ALL AROUND! A makeup junkie like myself gets very excited when she finds the perfect foundation!
Next on my list to buy is the concealer and mascara!
