Did the thought cross your mind, “Why are you reviewing It Cosmetics Bye Bye Breakout Powder you don’t have blemish prone skin and you don’t like powder!?” I know, because I had that exact same thought myself. It Cosmetics Bye Bye Breakout Powder ($28) is a new finishing powder developed with blemish-prone skin in mind. This mattifying powder which addresses shine and oil and includes ingredients like oil-absorbing zinc oxide, kaolin clay, witch hazel, colloidal oatmeal, tea tree, sulfur and a gentle AHA/BHA complex as well to treat problematic skin while keeping it shine-free.

So, yeah, obviously this wasn’t created with my skin type in mind since I’m not prone to breakouts and I have drier, duller skin. But I was curious and I tried it anyway so, here are some thoughts about what I experienced when using it.

The new It Cosmetics Miracle Water 3-in-1 Glow Tonic is a new micellar cleansing water that not only removes dirt, oil, and makeup without the need to rinse off but also contains a skin-brighting radiance booster to brighten skin as well as an anti-aging treatment essence that diffuses the look of lines and wrinkles while leaving skin clean and hydrated.

It sounds like It Cosmetics might have combined the elements of what we love about Pixi Glow Tonic into a bottle of micellar water. I actually love the idea of these as when you’re using micellar water you aren’t rinsing it off your skin therefore any good for you ingredients in the mix remain on your face after you’ve cleansed. It seems like a pretty fantastic idea! I’m looking forward to trying out.

It’s $38 for a 8.5 oz bottle and it’s available exclusively on the itcosmetics.com site. There are no details as of yet when it will launch at ulta.com but you can actually try a sample size as well as a full-size of the new Confidence in Your Cleanser from qvc.com for $25 (plus $3 Shipping). You’ll get a full-size cleanser plus a 1.7 oz size of the new It Cosmetics Miracle Water 3-in-1 Glow Tonic.

Pretty cool if you’ve been wanting to try both products out!

I guess Sephora heard us complaining about the lack of perks and how much better Ulta is at sales, steals, and deals. This new Weekly Wow Sale seems to be a lot like the Ulta Hot Deals that have been happening more and more frequently lately.

Will you be hauling any of these deals?
