Unfortunately consistency is not something H&M has to offer. What I would suggest is trying on the styles that say “regular rise” because they should hit just below the belly button. There should be a few skinny styles out there! Good luck hunting!

]]> Comment on Make-Up Tip of the Week: Coconut Oil by Jessica http://blackisblack.ca/2012/05/01/make-up-tip-of-the-week-coconut-oil/#comment-1610 Wed, 02 May 2012 04:32:25 +0000 http://blackisblack.ca/?p=1338#comment-1610 There is an inside joke with a lot of mom friends about coconut oil because you can use it for everything! Cradle cap, exzema, full body moisturizer, have given it to my cat to ingest for a healthier coat… I have put it in my hair (a very small amount massaged into the scalp). There are lists of coconut oil uses on the Internet…it never seems to end!!!

I think if you want light coverage and moisture that is the way for you to go Kristin! Lise Watier has a great one that the lady at shoppers gave me a sample of. Its called Hydrasmart 3D Hydration Tinted Veil.

I didn’t try any because my skin had a rough time adjusting to the weather (winter) and water (I was told the water wasn’t good there by Koreans). Once my face settled down, I only used a gentle baby lotion on my skin. I think I tried BB cream a couple times but ended up not continuing as I don’t like really using foundation, and it felt like that to me. Can’t remember which brand I tried. My Korean friends swore by it though.

Still think its possible to get a similar effect with your own creation…but I did hear the ones from Korea work amazing for acne scars. The only negative is they have a “grey-ish” tone to them, and they can be quite heavy- which is also contrary to the ones in North America…Did you ever try some while you were there?

It’s huge in Korea. I understood it to mean “blemish balm” and sure enough wikipedia has an article about it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BB_cream). Beauty products are a big deal there and I wonder if it would be worth it for you to look into some of the more popular asian brands (also listed on the wiki article) just to be informed?

ps. Can you believe I commented about beauty products on your blog :)
