Trinny London Makeup

I am long over due a make up revamp (I'm 51yrs) and have been following Trinny London on FB and Instagram. All the women that post certainly look great using that brand. I have done the Match2Me on line, however would prefer to wait until I was near a store that facilitates her make up ( this will be in September), to get a tangible feel for it.
I was just wondering if anyone here uses the make up and how they've found it. Many thanks.

I use it. I like it but the staying power is not as good as it could be. I went to her counter at and they matched me to the completely wrong shades of concealer, so if you can get to her office for one of the “at home” appointments I’d go for that instead.

I had a sample of their foundation type thing sent as I really liked the look of their stuff online - gosh it was awful 😬 has put me off trying anything else.

Do you mean the BFF cream as there isn’t a foundation?

I use some of her range - I'm not mad keen on the BFF cream - i feel very shiny with it on - but it's okay. I use the Just a Touch which is a concealer to be applied as and where you need it, and it has given me the confidence to go out wearing less make up as you only apply it to the bits that need coverage then blend. So from that point of view its quite good.
Eyeshadows I havent tried as I want to try the colours before buying.
I like the blush, but find the lip cream way too messy - good pigment but applying with a finger means its not an accurate finish (i know she says its meant to be 'on the go' but you still need lip definition, particularly with strong colours) ) and your finger ends up covered in it!

The stacking pots though are a great idea!
The online colour match I find pretty tricky though as I dont seem to fit any of the colourings so it can be a bit hit and miss. I also find the website too 'clunky'. To be they need to get the range out there so we can colour match in real life.

Yes that was it sorry. It's like polyfilla.
