    Bye Bye Foundation

    Beware of ordering hype

    Overall Experience:

    I knew this $39 promotion had auto-ship but did not realize the products were trial-sized. The ordering agent had a foreign accent not easy to understand, so asked for much repeating. Good thing!

    In rapid conversation, she kept pushing different offers, and one was for "full sized" products, at repeated $39 charges to equal about $150. It was so confusing, I finally put my foot down, that I ONLY wanted the original offer, at $39. Period.

    Previously, I had purchased an IT product at Ulta in Medium, which I found to be too light and pasty. So I ordered this promotion in Tan, which I find too dark for my olive skin tone.

    The concealer should be in a lighter tone, at the least.

    So, what I received was the Bye Bye Foundation, concealer, and mascara in trial sizes, think "TRAVEL sizes." The Illuminator for pores, don't know if that is a trial size, but adequate to last for a while.

    You MUST wear a primer, or it will settle into your wrinkles and make them more obvious. I have a couple of dark spots (not very) on my chin that it doesn't cover, even with extra application. I do wear a serum and Vitamin C cream as well prior to using the Foundation, and my skin feels heavy with the product.

    The lip-whatever is full-sized, and is off-white in color and is (I suppose) to change to pink on lips. Sort of like those lipsticks that change color depending on your body chemistry. If your lips are already "pink," you will see no difference. It just acts like a lip balm.

    The gifts of Vitality Disc of blush appear to be full size, and also the brush.

    As far as the charges, auto-ship and full-size hype, this is my solution: As soon as I received an email that the product had shipped, I called and canceled the whole thing. I will pay the one-time charge for what I received, but no more. Keep your confirmation email of cancellation. Most card companies will deal with excessive charges, but not PayPal. It remains to be seen what shows up on my bill next month.

    I say "yes" as a recommendation (cannot opt out), only because the brush is full-sized and the product is useful for travel. All-in-all, it is worth the $39 (plus shipping, of course, about $6).

    Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
