Causes breakouts

By Nicole , Colorado

I like the way the Bye Bye Foundation covers for the first hour or so. After a week of wearing the foundation, my face broke out. I stopped for a week and it cleared up. I thought it might be the weather so I gave the Foundation another shot, and my face broke out that very day. It's expensive and of poor quality in my opinion.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Awful Product

By Pam Cotton, Alabama, Verified Reviewer

I bought this product and it doesn't do any of the things promised. The color looks orange, it's very dry, it doesn't cover even. I'm very disappointed and then could not get a refund so I'm stuck with a terrible product. Please investigate before you make the purchase.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Not everything it claims

By Teri, Tallahassee, FL, Verified Reviewer

After a long and exhausting decision I decided to purchase the IT Cosmetic line at Ulta, as the return policy is great and no gimmicky sales are involved.

I'm very disappointed in the Your Skin But Better CC Cream with SPF 50+. Reasons: it goes on heavy thick and feels just as heavy, it's shiny to. It does not cover as well as what the pitch says, it highlights wrinkles and does not cover small dark freckles, etc.

Superhero Mascara: This goes on clumpy, the wand would be better if curves and smaller bristles were on it. I had to use my other curved fine bristle wand to apply the Superhero. It flaked too.

Lipstick: it doesn't stay on but 5 minutes, leaves my lips feeling dry.

The IT You Sculpted: This is okay if you're looking for slight definition. Beware it's a pain to brush out if you've messed up.

Bye Bye Under Eye Waterproof Concealer: A pin sized amount goes a long way, which is great but removing it is a pain.

Confidence in a Cream Moisturizing Super Cream: A dab of this very, very small product goes a long way. The smell is nice, however I'm not impressed.

Vitality Cheek Flush: Not bad, this is like the rest of the blushes on the market. My recommendation is good for this, but save your money and purchase one that's not so pricey.

Build a Brow: It seems to do okay, it's thick and goes a long way. It stays on and so far no issues with this.

Your Skin But Better CC+ Airbrush Perfecting Powder SPF: This comes with the sponge in it, nicely laid out design of this product. I like the option of applying with a brush or sponge. It does come off on clothes, etc., when it comes in contact with anything, and this is not a pain to wash off. It doesn't cover everything like its counterpart foundation cream. And it's not as bad with wrinkles to.

Both the liquid and powder instruct you to apply after two hours of being outside in any type of situation where you get wet, sweat etc. Sorry, but I'm not doing that, what a pain right.

IT Brushes: They are fantastic.

The Your Contour Must Haves Airbrush Sculpting and Highlighting 2 Piece Brush Set: Don't purchase this if you get the IT Brushes from Ulta, the brushes in the large kit are better. So to purchasing the contour kit brushes is a waste of money in my opinion.

This product line might be for someone that is younger than me, I'm 50, and who doesn't have a large pore problem, or wrinkles and for a non-outdoor woman, or better for someone that stays inside a majority of the time.

I'm taking a majority of everything back to Ulta today, I have my receipt, the boxes that everything came in and I'm still within the 60 day return policy window, about one week left actually. This is the first time I've left any review anywhere.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Total scam

By Susan Biggs, Bethlehem, PA, Verified Reviewer

It Cosmetics is a total scam. I ordered the $40 sample kit. Received that kit and the the next day the full sized $60 kit. Returned that but this month received two more kits on the same day and $195 taken out of my credit card. When I called customer service they told me I didn't read the "fine print". I just wanted to try the cosmetics. More trouble than it's worth.

Do Not Purchase!

By Marti, Moorpark, CA, Verified Reviewer

I strongly recommend that you do not purchase this product! I reluctantly used a Visa Gift Card to purchase the foundation after watching an infomercial. Right after purchasing I decided to check out the reviews on the product. Backwards planning!

From reading the reviews I learned that I would be sent the product monthly and billed monthly. I had no idea that I wasn't making a one time purchase. I don't think the infomercial made that clear and I certainly wasn't made aware of that when I made the purchase. That in itself I believe is fraudulent. I called immediately to cancel my order.

I was told it would take a few days and then the money would be credited back to my card. During my third call I was told by the clerk that he would put me through to a supervisor because he wasn't sure how gift cards were credited. She told me my card had never been charged which was untrue.

Now it looks like I'm out the money. Please do not buy from Bye Bye Foundation or It Cosmetics through their infomercial.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Total fraud

By Cindy Barber, Watertown, NY, Verified Reviewer

I ordered this product while watching their Try It Now TV show. I was drawn in by how well the product was supposed to work, and the special price on the makeup kit if I called within the hour.

Once I ordered it, I was told I was locked in at the special price of $39.97 and would receive a new kit every three months for that price.

I was totally unsatisfied with the product and canceled my order, only to find out they are charging me a balance of $79.90. When I called to argue, they claim it's originally more than $100 and I was being billed in payment installments. So untrue, and a total scam!

I am in the process of shipping their kit back and hopefully, they will stick to their word and give me my money back. So disappointed! Time to get ahold of the Attorney General.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Extremely dissatisfied

By Sally Ann , Brooklyn, NY

This product is not better, if not worse, than my foundation. I use L'Oreal True Match and it is 1000 times better than Bye Bye foundation. Bye Bye foundation makes your skin look shiny even after applying the finishing powder. The concealer conceals nothing. L'Oreal True Match is much better. My skin does not feel as good and silky smooth as when I apply my own facial cream and foundation with finishing powder. The lipstick is nothing but a comparison to chap stick. I did not receive the free gifts as advertised. Needless to say I will be sending back what I received for a full refund and canceling the upcoming orders. If I could have given this less than one star I would have. Consumers beware as this product is nothing like advertised on the infomerical.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Rip off

By Claudia Rosser , Broadway, NC

I like the foundation, but it is a tiny tube. The concealer, powder, and the mascara are also tiny. Very disappointed.

Doesn't do what it claims!

By Nita, NC, Verified Reviewer

I had very high expectations. I counted the days for my delivery. I was very excited yesterday when I got home from work and saw that my package arrived early.

I ran into my bathroom and started applying my new makeup.

Not full coverage, not what I expected. The other products in my package seemed to really work though, but not the Bye Bye Foundation.

I give it from 1-10 about a 5. Looks ok, feels nice, but doesn't cover like expected. I'll stick to my store brought foundation.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Predators

By Judith Rogers, Snellville, GA, Verified Reviewer

I originally ordered the trial $39.95 kit in January. I was not impressed. I immediately called and canceled but the girl on the phone kept trying to sell me other product.

My son was killed on his job in 2013. It was horrible. He was my only child. He has two children that were placed in foster care the day after Christmas, so I moved to Florida to help take care of the kids. I had no luck getting in touch with Customer service in January so I emailed them February (as so many other people who have complained about this company have also had an impossible time reaching customer service).

So I sent them a notice of cancellation on February 1st to cancel any "membership" and "cease and desist billing my credit card." I have been through hell. In March, I noticed I was still being charged for product that I was not even receiving because there is no postal service in the remote area in which I live, everybody has a PO Box.

So I did not receive mail February or March at all. They didn't even have the correct address, yet they still kept billing my account but I was not receiving any product. Finally, in May I caught them. Not only had they not canceled my account, they had not reimbursed me for the extra charge from January 4, February, March, April, and May of 53.94.

I filed fraud charges with my bank. I'm still paying for my son's funeral. I do not need this expense and heartache they have caused me. Ive received nothing from them except one kit. I went through 33,000 emails and found where I had advised them to cancel and that I had moved and left no forwarding address and to cease and desist billing me.

At this point, I've filed reports with my bank, the company (which sells its product under one name and bills under a completely different name, and has a totally different email for returns), the BBB, Rip Off Reports, Highya, and ultimately the FTC. I want to be reimbursed from February as I have proof that I have moved through May 2016.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Not worth the money

By Jennifer Boyce, North Carolina, Verified Reviewer

I just had to try it based on seeing how well it worked on the commercial. The foundation does not cover at all like they say it will. I will say that it feels really good on my face, and it definitely has a moisturizer feel to it. But the coverage is not good. I have since bought Almay Smart Shade CC cream for $7, and it works way better. Sorry, IT Cosmetics.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
