Tiara, the ACO works great for removing makeup. Just a drop or two for the whole face and no abrasive cotton balls. :)

I was wondering that too about the ULTP.

Oooo, that sounds wonderful Christine!

I wonder if SN's Ultimate Luxury Powder would work as a good primer for those that don't want to try making their own?
I use the Ultimate Lux Powder sometimes as a primer before foundation. Has been working fine for me so far :) Decent oil control as well.

I've used it too, and I agree that it works well.

i get this if i sleep in foundation repeatedly (i'm good about washing my face in the morning and in showers-which i take every other day- but not so good about it at night.) i usually just go without foundation for a few days to a week.

Jojoba oil works well, or Argan oil. SN cleansing oil works just fine on my eyes too. I need to wash my face several times in order to remove all makeup residue, otherwise I get all kinds of skin problems. HTH.

I use the kiss cleanser to take off everything, even all of my eyeliner and mascara its so gentle!! I use the ACO for the reeeally stubborn eye stuff but I'm pretty sensitive and it gets rid of everything no problem! Some mascaras can smudge more than come off, I think Max Factor Max types tend to be guilty of this, and although they look great I have had a little red patch by my eye when I don't get it off properly, but with Kiss I think it was fine!

I use the Ultimate Luxury Powder too for priming (and now finishing while my other stuff is gone), I really like it! I used to prime with a 'cone gel, but I switched to just using this wonderful powder mix, and the oilies stay away for a long time.
