Aromaleigh's new 'Glissade'... - Beauty & Cosmetics Message Board

Anyone try it? It's supposed to be similar to their pure powder but better for dry or sensitive skin...Allow me to quote the site:

Quote:

Glissade is the result of several years of customer feedback and testing... while many women revel in the freedom of mineral foundations, an equally large percentage of women find mineral foundations drying, itching, tightening and sensitizing to their skin... and they cannot wear them happily or successfully. We've developed "Glissade" so that you may experience the ingredient simplicity of minerals in a formula that utilizes silicone-coated pigment technology, thereby providing a "buffer" between your skin and the pigments.

Glissade looks just like you'd expect any mineral foundation to appear- a fine, loose powder... however, when you begin to apply it, you begin to feel a smooth, luxurious, gliding, silky feeling on your skin... application is effortless... the powder glides over your skin and melds with your own skintone yielding the appearance of perfection.

It sounds great. I really liked the pure powder but it was a bit too dry, so I'm thinking of trying this. If you've tried it lemme know what you think.

I like it - but I've decided I like the Voile better. However, my dd has dry, sensitive skin & she prefers the Glissade.

Why do you like the Voile better?

I like the consistency better - and it seems to work better for my slightly oily skin.

I wonder about this stuff too. I can't tell you how many times I've used a 'new and improved' fromula, and ended up liking the old one better. So I was scared to buy this stuff.

belle, can you compare this to the old formula. What did you notice different about it? I'd be very interested to know.
