    Default Alexis Vogel

    I was just watching an infomercial on Alexis Vogel's beauty system. 60 day free trial....free return shipping. It includes makeup (all in a compartmentalized bag), an instructional video, and a guide to luxurious hair and lashes. Pamela Anderson even endorses her (saying that SHE is the reason there were all the cosmetic surgery rumours).

    Anybody know anything about this? Know someone that's used it?

    Looks really good, but then again, I'm a real sucker for infomercials. lol Seems expensive (4 payments of $39.95) but you do get prof. quality makeup, brushes, videos/DVD's, etc.


    OH WOW....she works on American Idol....I've been admiring their makeup for WEEKS!!!

    I tried it and honestly was not that impressed. You don't get that much diveristy in colors. Even though the instructional video was included I could not get it to look right but mabey I just suck at following directions. Really it is alot of money for not much. I just let the make up artist at work do my make up and she really makes me look like a porn star! Sometimes it is best just left in the hands of proffessionals, The only thing I really liked was the lip gloss that came with it. It looked so yummy! But see for yourself mabey you are better at putting on make up than I am.

    Just read magazines, watch E/Mtc/VH1, get your makeup done at the department store, observe others.........and learn yourself!!!

    I would never waste $20 to get the housemom/dad to do my makeup...that's $$ for me to keep!!!

    What about that infomercial for the powders made of minerals? I am thinking of getting those!

    Kat...

    are you talking about Bare Minerals? That's what I use and I loooooooove.

    It really is everything the commercials claim it is. They sell it specialty stores are some malls, so you might be able to try it on if you can find one of those. I know we have one out here in King of Prussia, PA and my friend in St Louis has one. I have no diea where else they are

    I've never checked out the system personally but she does the playboy style makeup. For $160, seems like it could be a decent starter kit especially for somebody who doesn't have alot of skill applying makeup. Looks like she's got most of the basics in there including her instructional dvd. IMO, there's a difference between reading about a technique than having somebody actually show you. I realized that after my mac makeover.

    Kinda reminds me of barbizon, be a stripper or just look like one!

    If you've got the $ I say go for it.

    I got it. It's not THAT great, although her technique is good.
    Just hope you NEVER have to return it-thier customer service department might as well be made up of smurfs. No one knows anything- No one knows who knows anything- and you end up being the one who obviously knows nothing!

    I want to try the system. Alexis be workin Pams. I want those.

    And about the Bare Escentuals...
    I have every color they sell.
    It's not great at all. Especially if you are a yellow tone with a tan,
    These colors won't get you the right color,
    I mixed all them to get my color. But no luck. It makes my face pink....
    So there I go.. Back to MAC

    MAC doesn't break me out either and is a pretty lovely color. But bare escentuals do sell great quality in other stuff's. I like them. Just not foundations... well not for me. Who ever it works for... They're lucky because its pure minerals. And that's suppose to be good.
