My Favorite “Face-Worthy” Products from itCosmetics Are Now Mini-Sized!
By Alison Blackman
When I review beauty products I try very hard to be impartial, but after spending decades trying and writing about thousands of products from hundreds of brands, can you blame me if I have a few personal favorites? IT Cosmetics is one of those brands.
Your skin isn’t like my skin, or like anyone else’s skin. But there are certain things that I look for in products that apply to all of them:
The products are pleasant to use.
They have effective ingredients without any known harmful ingredients.
Color cosmetics are offered in a variety of colors and shades to suit various skin tones.
Skincare either multi-task in a sensible way, and/or offers products to handle different issues.
Also it’s nice if the products are innovative.
IT Cosmetics has it all!
The Advice Sisters Beauty and Style have already reviewed some of the products in this feature–but now they’re mini-sized for beach/pool/travel/purse/pocket.
This makes them affordable and also a great way to try some of ITCosmetics’ most popular items before investing in the full sized products.
IT Cosmetics products should be in your beach & travel totes
